How to set up a new Mule project from scratch (Maven configured)

I have recently started working with the Mule using AnypointStudios. Now I need to create a new, Maven base, Mule project. I never had to do this so I'm pretty lost on how to set up and create a proper Mule project with maven. Someone can help me?

Thank you all.

Solution

  • It's great that you are exploring Mulesoft. Good luck.

    as per your question that you are new and want to create a new Mulesoft project. so I would like that you first got through this article https://dzone.com/articles/Step-by-step-guide-to-using-mule-esb that is written by me and will guide you set up and get ready for your first mule project.

    after going through completely this article then create a new project new Project in Anypoint Studio

    1. click on file-> create a new mule project as shown in the below screenshot enter image description here

    2. now give your project name and select mule runtime, in my system I had only 4.3 so it is showing that otherwise, you can select by your choice (to install more runtime is another question)

    enter image description here

    1. now you will get your API with your pom file that will have all related dependencies. there you can add any dependency according to your requirement.

    note: After all maven configuration check that at location C:\Users\yourPCName\.m2 one folder will create, that contains one more folder named repository second one file need to create settings.xml that we will use if Access MuleSoft Enterprise Repository (for example need to access nexus Artifactory.

    for example, attached below a sample of settings.xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.1.0.xsd">

      <id>mulesoft-release-local</id>
      <username>username</username>
      <password>password</password>
    </server>

      <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
      <name>name</name>
      <url>URL of artifactory</url>
