Maven doesn't recognize sibling modules when running mvn dependency:tree

I'm trying to set up a multi-module Maven project, and the inter-module dependencies are apparently not being set up correctly.

I have:

<modules>
  <module>commons</module>
  <module>storage</module>
</modules>

in the parent POM (which has a packaging-type pom) and then subdirectories commons/ and storage/ which define JAR poms with the same name.

Storage depends on Commons.

In the main (master) directory, I run mvn dependency:tree and see:

[INFO] Building system
[INFO]    task-segment: [dependency:tree]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] [dependency:tree {execution: default-cli}]

...correct tree...

[INFO] Building storage
[INFO]    task-segment: [dependency:tree]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.

Missing:
----------
1) domain:commons:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT

Why does the dependency on "commons" fail, even though the reactor has obviously seen it because it successfully processes its dependency tree? It should definitely not be going to the 'net to find it as it's right there...

The pom for storage:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd" xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>
  <parent>
    <artifactId>system</artifactId>
    <groupId>domain</groupId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
  </parent>
  <groupId>domain</groupId>
  <artifactId>storage</artifactId>
  <name>storage</name>
  <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>
  <dependencies>
    <!-- module dependencies -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>domain</groupId>
      <artifactId>commons</artifactId>
      <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </dependency>

    <!-- other dependencies -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>3.8.1</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

Thanks for any suggestions!

(Edit)

To clarify, what I am looking for here is this: I don't want to have to install module X to build module Y which depends on X, given that both are modules referenced from the same parent POM. This makes intuitive sense to me that if I have two things in the same source tree, I shouldn't have to install intermediate products to continue the build. Hopefully my thinking makes some sense here...


I think the problem is that when you specify a dependency Maven expects to have it as jar (or whatever) packaged and available from at least a local repo. I'm sure that if you run mvn install on your commons project first everything will work.


As discussed in this maven mailing list thread, the dependency:tree goal by itself will look things up in the repository rather than the reactor. You can work around this by mvn installing, as previously suggested, or doing something less onerous that invokes the reactor, such as

mvn compile dependency:tree

Works for me.


Realizing this is an older thread but it seems that either the tool evolved or this might have been missed the first time around.

It is possible to perform a build that makes dependencies resolved without installing by doing a reactor build.

If you start your build in the parent that describes the module structure of your project then your dependencies between your modules will be resolved during the build itself through the internal Maven reactor.

Of course this is not the perfect solution since it does not solve the build of a single individual module within the structure. In this case Maven will not have the dependencies in his reactor and will bee looking to resolve it in the repository. So for individual builds you still have to install the dependencies first.

Here is some reference describing this situation.
