Problem with building jar file with dependencies

I need to export a jar file which could be execute in server. I try many of answers in this site and other site, but I guess my main problem is :

[ERROR] Failed to parse plugin descriptor for mybot:energyBot:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT (/Users/narges/.m2/repository/bot/mBot/0.0.1-SNAPSHOT/energyBot-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar): No plugin descriptor found at META-INF/maven/plugin.xml -> [Help 1]

Here is part of my pom.xml: 

<plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>mybot</groupId>
            <artifactId>myBot</artifactId>
            <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <phase>install</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <outputDirectory>$/Users/narges/eclipse-workspace/Bot/lib</outputDirectory>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>

Use this in your pom.xml, plugin works fine with boot applications as well.

   <build>
      <plugins>
        <plugin>
          <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
          <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
          <version>2.3.1</version>
          <configuration>
            <outputDirectory>/your/path</outputDirectory>
          </configuration>
        </plugin>
      </plugins>
    </build>

You probably wrote myBot/energyBot yourself? You added it as a Maven plugin, but it seems like it is not a Maven plugin, but maybe just a plain jar.

If you want to put all dependencies into your jar, you need the assembly plugin or the shade plugin.
