Adding local jar as your dependencies

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38301919/maven-project-creation-with-local-repository-and-local-dependencies

For adding local jar as your dependencies, there are two way to achieve this.

1) Use scope system

<dependency>
    <groupId>poi</groupId>
    <artifactId>poi</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version> <!-- Dummy Version -->
    <scope>system</scope>
    <systemPath>/pathToJar/poi.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>

But using this way some maven building tools failed due to scope system, like maven-assembly-plugin and maven-shade-plugin. To avoid this use following way.

2) By creating local repository,

Create directory repo in your project directory. Run following maven command to install jar to local repository,

mvn deploy:deploy-file -Durl=file:///path/toyourproject/repo/ -Dfile=/pathToJar/poi.jar -DgroupId=poi -DartifactId=poi -Dpackaging=jar -Dversion=1.0

Run mvn deploy command in project folder via cmd. If mvn is not installed in your machine then use following links for same.

Install Maven in Windows

Install Maven in Ubuntu/UNIX

And add local repository entry pom.xml.

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>project.local</id>
        <name>project</name>
        <url>file:${project.basedir}/repo</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

Finally add your dependency,

<dependency>
     <groupId>poi</groupId>
     <artifactId>poi</artifactId>
     <version>1.0</version>
</dependency>

This dependency will use jar from your local repo created in project folder.
