Install Maven with Yum on Amazon Linux

gistfile1.txt

sudo wget http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/dchen/apache-maven/epel-apache-maven.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/epel-apache-maven.repo
sudo sed -i s/\$releasever/6/g /etc/yum.repos.d/epel-apache-maven.repo
sudo yum install -y apache-maven
mvn --version

perfect thank you so much

thanks a lot 👍

This worked great but set maven (and my default java) to use Java 1.7. If you want to use Java 1.8, follow the above gist and then do:

yum search java | grep openjdk
yum install java-1.8.<revision number from yum search>-openjdk-headless.x86_64
yum install java-1.8.<revision number from yum search>-openjdk-devel.x86_64
update-alternatives --config java #pick java 1.8
update-alternatives --config javac #pick java 1.8

Thank you so much!
