Hi Dave. I recommend to start with a simple stand-alone project in order to find out how Maven Shade works. It can be quite tricks for beginners otherwise. Create a POM, add a dependency - any dependency, some open source library maybe - and then try shading and relocating it with Maven Shade. This should work for both the binaries and (optionally) also for the sources. Both uber JARs (binaries and sources) should be pulled including transitive dependencies and you can even relocate the source code. Inspect the resulting JARs and play with filtering options (for both dependency names and files/directories) as well as with relocation. Then if you have an MCVE [1] and a concrete problem, feel free to report back here. Until then use [2] as a reference, especially [3] and [4]. Start simple and step by step, then increase the level of difficulty. Don't try to use 7 options at one, see what each of them does.
