Using maven console with m2eclipse

Maven newb here.. Is there any way to open a console in eclipse and execute maven commands on the M2Eclipse plugin? It's a pretty nice plugin but I'm looking around and not finding some of the functionalities that I want. Thanks!

You could just use maven from your operating system's console, and if you make changes that affect your eclipse project run the mvn eclipse:eclipse goal

Then right click on project in Eclipse and click Refresh

maybe you have same question to it

How to get access to (embedded in) Maven console in Eclipse?

you can use "external tools" function to do it.

see:

  1. In Eclipse, choose “Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations
  2. In "Program", click “New Launch Configuration”
  3. Config your console name, location, working directory
  4. "run"

sorry for no images, because my reputation is below 10.

If you want to run a specific maven plugin, You can do this

==> Right click on pom.xml ==> Run as ==> Maven build ==> It will open a pop up

You can type the goal that you want run, Type your goal in the Goals: input box

Goal : compile ==> Run

This will run compile goal.
