For Java libraries that are not available in the Maven Central or other Maven repositories, we need to install it into our Maven Local repository in order to use it as a project dependencies.
You may interest at this How to add Oracle JDBC driver in your Maven local repository
In this tutorial, we will show you how to install the kaptcha jar into our Maven local repository.
1. Kaptcha
For example, kaptcha, a popular third party Java library, which is generating captcha image to stop spam, but it’s not available in the Maven center repository.
Now, the
kaptcha is available in the Maven Central Repository. It is fine, even it is in the Maven Central, we still can install the Kaptcha JAR file manually into our Maven local repository.
2. mvn install
Download the kaptcha, extract it and copy the kaptcha-${version}.jar to somewhere else, for example, C drive, and run this command:
$ mvn install:install-file -Dfile=c:\kaptcha-{version}.jar -DgroupId=com.google.code
-DartifactId=kaptcha -Dversion={version} -Dpackaging=jar
For example:
> mvn install:install-file -Dfile=c:\kaptcha-2.3.jar -DgroupId=com.google.code
-DartifactId=kaptcha -Dversion=2.3 -Dpackaging=jar

Done, the kaptcha jar is installed (copied) into our Maven local repository.
3. pom.xml
After installed, just declares the kaptcha dependency as usual.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.code</groupId>
<artifactId>kaptcha</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
</dependency>
4. Alternative Solution
Forget about the ‘mvn install`, we also can download the .jar and tell the project to find the .jar in the system path like this:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.code</groupId>
<artifactId>kaptcha</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>d:/projects/kaptcha.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.code</groupId>
<artifactId>kaptcha</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${project.basedir}/lib/kaptcha.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
Awesome. The <dependencies> tags are needed though .eg: <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.google.code</groupId> <artifactId>kaptcha</artifactId> <version>2.3</version> <scope>system</scope> <systemPath>${project.basedir}/lib/kaptcha.jar</systemPath> </dependency> </dependencies> the jar file must be "kaptcha-2.3.jar" on the system pathThank you! So helpful!!!
Hi,
i just have file pom.xml onlinux
viettelsecurity
viettelsecurity
2.0
system
${project.basedir}/lib/viettelsecurity2.0.jar
but output show
[WARNING] ‘dependencies.dependency.systemPath’ for viettelsecurity:viettelsecurity:jar should not point at files within the project directory, ${project.basedir}/lib/viettelsecurity2.0.jar will be unresolvable by dependent projects @ line 119, column 16
so local lib can not import my file war
can you help me fix this? thanks
I had to copy my custom jar at “${project.basedir}/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib” & specify that as “systemPath” in pom.xml in order to get this jar included in my war file which is created by mvn install. This was not done automatically if my custom jar is located somewhere else.
It doesn’t work for me and sorry for this log errors

Hi, Mkyong. I would like to know if you have an example of add external JAR to the maven project but taking into account that this JAR has a NATIVE LIBRARY dependency. As the case of include OpenCV Library in a Maven Project.
it worked.. thanks a lot !
thank you. what i needed and simple.
Hi,
I have a spring boot app say A, which I am using in other spring boot app say B as Maven dependency, the above process is working, but when I modify anything in app A manually I have to run mvn package and by above process I’ve to include the jar in local repo, is there any automated process, if I modify app A automatically it gets updated in Maven local repo.
Try create a Maven multi module project
https://www.mkyong.com/maven/maven-how-to-create-a-multi-module-project/
Thank you, It worked for me. It saved my time
Can’t we just copy the jar file directly into Maven local repository?
Hi mkyong,
I use this article for a longe time, it is very usefull. But I have a situation: need to install this http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/commons-cli/commons-cli/1.0 manually, but the maven refuse to install. How to install?
worked perfectly for me
The problem I’m facing after this is the following error:
[WARNING] The POM for pipapo.jar is missing, no dependency information availalable
Obviously there is no POM because the other project had nothing to do with maven. So how do I get rid of these errors?
Maven install file should generate the pom file automatically. Try upgrade Maven to the latest 3.6, and test it again.
Thanks for the post. I’m trying this but looks like it did
not work for me.
I’m creating a library a project and copied the jar to
c:mylibtest-automation-library-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
I’m running the test scripts through Jenkins.
In the Jenkins job of test scripts, I included the following
pre-build step install the library:
install:install-file
-Dfile=c:mylibtest-automation-library-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
-DgroupId=com.mycompany.taf -DartifactId=test-automation-library
-Dversion=0.0.1 -Dpackaging=jar
This installs the jar to maven local repository (where are
the scripts are supposed to run) and build is successful
in the POM file of the test-scripts, I included the
following dependency for the above library:
com.mycompany.taf
test-automation-library
0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
If I do maven install through Jenkins, I’m hitting the
following error:
[INFO]
————————————————————————
[WARNING] The POM for
com.mycompany.taf:test-automation-library:jar:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT is missing, no
dependency information available
[INFO] ————————————————————————
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE
Is it something wrong with the dependency? I tried the with
all different options and also googled it, but could not able to figured out
what was the problem. I’m really blocked here. any help/pointers are greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

hi mkyong
you are the best really
Hi,mkyong, I am installing ojdbc6.jar to my local repository, the install command is just like you write in article and ojdbc6.jar is copied to local repo, then I try to search this artifact in eclipse pom Dependencies panel, I can’t find this artifact, I try to add in pom.xml manually, it works. So what can I do to make sure I can search out this newly installed artifact? My command line maven and eclipse maven use the same local repository.
I get answer from stackoverflow:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16355108/why-cant-i-find-my-own-installed-artifact-in-eclipse-search-dialog, hope can help others with same question.
What is that you haven’t still written about! I found an article for everything I look around for! Thanks!
Well, it worked for me too.. thanks man!
Worked for me! Thanks :).

Can any one tell me what is the purpose of groupId,arifactId tag in dependency tag and -Dpackaging property in the mvn command ………
Hi All,
Can any one tell me what is the purpose of , in tag and -Dpackaging property in the mvn command ………
For me works this:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.google.code.kaptcha -DartifactId=kaptcha -Dversion=2.3 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=kaptcha-2.3.jar
instead of “…-DgroupId=com.google.code … “
forget my answer, i was wrong
Hi,
I have a requirement in which I have to uplaod the internally created jar(project related) to repo without version.
Please sujjest how to do that.
Thanks!! 🙂
Great, you are so good to explain things in a simple manner. How do we do the same if I have to install a library or project to nexsus repository?
Sorry, never use nexsus. But, nexsus should have a screen to let user to add the library manually, try search it.
How to create custom project structure with Maven (step by step mkyong style).
Thank you,

Hi! Thank you for tutorial but how can I add a jar library that uses native external libraries (.dll, .so)?
I don’t think Maven cant handle it automatically. You can still use Maven to add Java library but put your .dll or .so manually into project classpath.
thanx alot it made simple to add my own jar and not to place into nexus.
Yeah, but sometimes you need to add it into Nexus (so other people can use it in your organization, for example).
Yes, if your company is using Nexus or others to host a Maven repository server.
Hi mkyong,
Thanks for such wonderful maven tutorials.
Thanks a lot!!!!!
it was really a great. Simple and easy as everything must be.
Thanks a lot… Your steps were simple and very helpful…
Thanks for the detailed simple steps!!!
Thanks a lot for your effort. It helped a lot. Thanks!
Make sure to add -Dpackaging=jar to that mvn:install command. This parameter is not optional. (In your instructions, it appears in the result section, but not in the command)
hi -Dpackaging=jar is a must in order for the install the mavan library manually into our local repository. Post is updated , thanks for it.
I Have one problem. This command is ok for a single Custom jar file. But we have 17 custom jars files in the file system. I do not want to write dependency in pom.xml file for each and every jars instead inside one dependecy through which all the jars will be available to build patha. Is there any way to to this. Please suggest me.
