I normally use Maven from the command line, but I'm now investigating the m2eclipse plugin for the first time. I see that some goals are already baked in for easy invocation. For example, I can choose Run > Run As > Maven source:jar to execute the "jar" goal of the Source plugin. Yet other goals are conspicuously absent. The "deploy" goal of the Deploy plugin, for instance, or the "site" goal of the Site plugin are two widely used goals that are not in the menu.

I know it's possible to create Run Configurations for any goal or profile that I might want to specify. But this seems like a lot of manual effort, especially when Maven is capable of examining a plugin and automatically finding a list of its goals. Is there an easier way of doing this, or will I just have to start making a bunch of Run Configurations?

Also, once I've created a Run Configuration, is there a way of sharing it with other members of my development team, or do we all need to create Run Configurations on our individual Eclipse environments?

Thanks,

Trevor
