Chapter 4. Creating a Quarkus project by configuring the pom.xml file

Procedure

1. Open the pom.xml file in a text editor.

2. Add the Quarkus GAV (group, artifact, version) and use the quarkus-universe-bom file to omit the versions of the different Quarkus dependencies:

   <dependencyManagement>
       <dependencies>
         <dependency>
           <groupId>${quarkus.platform.group-id}</groupId>
           <artifactId>${quarkus.platform.artifact-id}</artifactId>
           <version>${quarkus-plugin.version}</version>
           <type>pom</type>
           <scope>import</scope>
         </dependency>
       </dependencies>
     </dependencyManagement>

3. Add the Quarkus Maven plug-in:

   <build>
       <plugins>
           <plugin>
               <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
               <artifactId>quarkus-maven-plugin</artifactId>
               <version>${quarkus-plugin.version}</version>
               <executions>
                   <execution>
                       <goals>
                           <goal>build</goal>
                       </goals>
                   </execution>
               </executions>
           </plugin>
       </plugins>
   </build>
