  • 0

When running mvn install on a local multi module project it builds and install the projects artifacts into the local repo. mvn clean seems to clean up my project specific target directories.

What command do I use with maven to get it to uninstall my projects modules from the local repo? for example my projects outputs foo-0.1.jar and bar-0.2.jar I want those removed from my local repo without having to go in there and delete them myself.

    You can purge artifacts from your local repository, but why do you like to do this? Apart from that you can do that via maven-dependency-plugin:

    This will purge all project- and dependency artifacts

    mvn dependency:purge-local-repository -DreResolve=false
    

    This can be influenced by supplemental command line arguments (see the documentation) for further details.
