I used Netbeans to generate a template for my JavaFX app. It generated a POM.xml and the build section seems excessively complicated. Furthermore, it unpacks ALL the dependencies every time i compile the project and it takes like 3 minutes every time. Here is the relevant section of the POM.xml file :
<parent> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId> <version>2.0.4.RELEASE</version> </parent> <organization> <name>MDenis</name> </organization> <dependencies> <!--SPRING--> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter</artifactId> <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-logging</artifactId> </exclusion> </exclusions> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-jdbc</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-orm</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> </dependency> <!--HIBERNATE--> <dependency> <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId> <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>javax.validation</groupId> <artifactId>validation-api</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId> <artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId> <version>6.0.10.Final</version> </dependency> <!--HSQLDB--> <dependency> <groupId>org.hsqldb</groupId> <artifactId>hsqldb</artifactId> </dependency> <!--LOMBOK--> <dependency> <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId> <artifactId>lombok</artifactId> </dependency> <!--LOG4J2--> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-log4j2</artifactId> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.6</version> <executions> <execution> <id>unpack-dependencies</id> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>unpack-dependencies</goal> </goals> <configuration> <excludeScope>system</excludeScope> <excludeGroupIds>junit,org.mockito,org.hamcrest</excludeGroupIds> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>unpack-dependencies</id> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>exec</goal> </goals> <configuration> <executable>${java.home}/../bin/javapackager</executable> <arguments> <argument>-createjar</argument> <argument>-nocss2bin</argument> <argument>-appclass</argument> <argument>${mainClass}</argument> <argument>-srcdir</argument> <argument>${project.build.directory}/classes</argument> <argument>-outdir</argument> <argument>${project.build.directory}</argument> <argument>-outfile</argument> <argument>${project.build.finalName}.jar</argument> </arguments> </configuration> </execution> <execution> <id>default-cli</id> <goals> <goal>exec</goal> </goals> <configuration> <executable>${java.home}/bin/java</executable> <commandlineArgs>${runfx.args}</commandlineArgs> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.1</version> <configuration> <source>1.8</source> <target>1.8</target> <compilerArguments> <bootclasspath>${sun.boot.class.path}${path.separator}${java.home}/lib/jfxrt.jar</bootclasspath> </compilerArguments> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.16</version> <configuration> <additionalClasspathElements> <additionalClasspathElement>${java.home}/lib/jfxrt.jar</additionalClasspathElement> </additionalClasspathElements> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> This is my first JavaFX project, in my other projects i just use this build section and everything works fine :
<build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <goals> <goal>repackage</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> However, when trying to use it with this project, i get the following error :
The parameters 'executable' for goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2.1:exec are missing or invalid Why won't this work with a JavaFX project? It seems like it wants to execute goals that are not even in my POM file.
EDIT
I do see that goal in the effective POM tab but I don't know enough about Maven to make sense of it, I can't change anything in the effective section anyway. Anyone knows how to make the Spring Boot plugin work with a JavaFX desktop app?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

You need to refactor the pom file. The configuration must go outside of the executions, like this:
<plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>unpack-dependencies</id> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>exec</goal> </goals> <configuration> <executable>${java.home}/../bin/javapackager</executable> <arguments> <argument>-createjar</argument> <argument>-nocss2bin</argument> <argument>-appclass</argument> <argument>${mainClass}</argument> <argument>-srcdir</argument> <argument>${project.build.directory}/classes</argument> <argument>-outdir</argument> <argument>${project.build.directory}</argument> <argument>-outfile</argument> <argument>${project.build.finalName}.jar</argument> </arguments> </configuration> </execution> <execution> <id>default-cli</id> <goals> <goal>exec</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> <configuration> <executable>${java.home}/bin/java</executable> <commandlineArgs>${runfx.args}</commandlineArgs> </configuration> </plugin> Answers 2
I finally managed to make this work without unpacking the dependencies every time i compile. I used the de.felixroske.jfxsupport.AbstractJavaFxApplicationSupport class to extend my main class from, put launch(args); in the main method, and I now have the following code in the build section of the POM.XML file :
<build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> </executions> <configuration> <executable>${java.home}/bin/java</executable> <commandlineArgs>${runfx.args}</commandlineArgs> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <goals> <goal>repackage</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build>
