Loading Maven dependencies from GitHub [duplicate]

Now you can import a Java library from a GitHub repo using JitPack.
In your pom.xml:

1. Add repository:

<repository>
    <id>jitpack.io</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
</repository>

2. Add dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.User</groupId>
    <artifactId>Repo name</artifactId>
    <version>Release tag</version>
</dependency>

It works because JitPack will check out the code and build it. So you’ll end up downloading the jar.
If the project doesn’t have a GitHub release then its possible to use a commit id as the version.
