Importing Fanciful Library using Maven (Minecraft Server Plugin Development)

Question

So I have been trying to get the send raw chat messages to work and I have had no luck since everything I have used, wont work. Originally I didn't want to use a library but it seems I might have to try it since I have tried everything else.

I found a library called Fanciful that seems to have everything and it requires you importing it using Maven. I have looked around on how to import library using Maven but I haven't been able to do it. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Answer 1

You should download and install library to your local repository.

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=c:\lib-{version}.jar -DgroupId=com.google.code 
-DartifactId=kaptcha -Dversion={version} -Dpackaging=jar

If you prefer not to use Maven, you could also try to download the jar file from the repository directly. For example: Fanciful 0.3.3.
