#How to use POM to build JAR

1. in POM add: (in plug-in section)

        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.2.0</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <phase>package</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>shade</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <shadedArtifactAttached>true</shadedArtifactAttached>
                        <shadedClassifierName>project-classifier</shadedClassifierName>
                        <outputFile>shade\${project.artifactId}.jar</outputFile>
                        <transformers>
                            <transformer implementation=
                                                 "org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">
                                <mainClass>com.ingconti.Launcher</mainClass>
                            </transformer>
                        </transformers>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
   
        <!-- end of added -->
   

2. be sure to use YOUR main class: mine is: com.ingconti.Launcher

3. do NOT try skip out Laucher class! it must be used to force loading of inner class derived from: javafx.application.Application.

   (for brave and curious... here that's why: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/openjfx-dev/2018-June/021977.html)

4. pack it using MAVEN cmd in right Maven panel:

   mvn package

5. DO NOT run Java JAR in "red" folder, (error: "no main manifest attribute, in ...../target/JavaFXWithImages-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"")

RUN Java in "shade" YELLOW folder.

for cmd line: cd /Users/ingconti/IdeaProjects/JavaFXWithImagesAndText/shade java -jar JavaFXWithImages.jar

6. to run inside IJ, choose com.ingconti.Launcher as main class in "Configuration"

If You get: WARNING: Unsupported JavaFX configuration: classes were loaded from 'unnamed module @4d088d11'

don't panic. it's ok.

#==== JAVA FX SUPPORT

add:

    <!-- javaFX for M1 -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
        <artifactId>javafx</artifactId>
        <version>19</version>
        <type>pom</type>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
        <artifactId>javafx-controls</artifactId>
        <version>19</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
        <artifactId>javafx-fxml</artifactId>
        <version>19</version>
    </dependency>


    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.controlsfx</groupId>
        <artifactId>controlsfx</artifactId>
        <version>11.1.2</version>
    </dependency>


    <!-- end of javaFX for M1 -->

#How use JSON Parser:

I) add in POM:

<!-- jGson-->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.google.code.gson</groupId>
        <artifactId>gson</artifactId>
        <version>2.9.0</version>
    </dependency>

II) See code in God AND in tests.
