convert java projects to Maven

I have some java projects and would like to convert them pro Maven.

  • Is there any command maven for conversion of existing java projects?
  • If I just add the pom.xml it will become a Maven project?

I thought about those two cases because I don’t have the eclipse and I’d like to put that process in a pipeline.

    I never stopped to test this, but I just tested it here in Netbeans 12, got two HTML projects and another Javascript added Pom.xml to them the IDE recognized as Maven projects.

Don’t just add the pom.xml. The project must at least follow the directory structure:

- pom.xml
- src
  |-- main
  |   |-- java
  |   |   |-- App.java
  |   |-- resources
  |       |-- file.csv
  |-- test
      |-- java
      |   |-- AppTest.java
      |-- resources
          |-- testfile.csv

There are, of course, other possibilities of organizing additional directories and configuration files, but this is the minimum for it to run as a Maven project.

As to whether there is any command maven do, I don’t know.
