NetBeans, Context-Click

在NetBeans 8的maven驱动项目中，只需上下文单击感兴趣的依赖项的jar文件列表项。选择“下载源”。稍等片刻，NetBeans将自动下载并安装源代码(如果可用的话)。

类似地，您可以选择Download Javadoc以在本地安装文档。然后，您可以在编辑器中上下文单击一些代码并选择查看JavaDoc。

如果你正在使用eclipse，你也可以打开Preferences > Maven并选择下载Artifact Sources，这将使pom.xml保持完整，并将你的源代码或java文档(如果选中)保存在你的机器位置~/.m2中进行开发

Maven Micro-Tip: Get sources and Javadocs When you're using Maven in an IDE you often find the need for your IDE to resolve source code and Javadocs for your library dependencies. There's an easy way to accomplish that goal. mvn dependency:sources mvn dependency:resolve -Dclassifier=javadoc The first command will attempt to download source code for each of the dependencies in your pom file. The second command will attempt to download the Javadocs. Maven is at the mercy of the library packagers here. So some of them won't have source code packaged and many of them won't have Javadocs. In case you have a lot of dependencies it might also be a good idea to use inclusions/exclusions to get specific artifacts, the following command will for example only download the sources for the dependency with a specific artifactId: mvn dependency:sources -DincludeArtifactIds=guava

IntelliJ idea的maven idea插件允许您指定是否应该解析和下载源代码和java文档

mvn idea:idea -DdownloadSources=true -DdownloadJavadocs=true

在eclipse中-点击项目然后:

根据在Eclipse (Kepler)中查看Maven控制台，如果您试图在编辑器中从上述Maven依赖项打开一个类，而您还没有下载Maven依赖项的源代码，则将自动下载Maven依赖项的源代码。当您不想为所有依赖项获取源代码，但又不知道需要哪些依赖项时(而且您正在使用Eclipse)，这是非常方便的。

我最终使用了@GabrielRamierez的方法，但接下来将使用@PascalThivent的方法。
