Looking for a way to visualize dependency structure of my
multi-module pom project
I have a pretty large project (~30 modules) and want to visualize module inter dependencies, excluding 3rd party.
It seems that existing tools simply can't handle the maven reactor. The maven dependency plugin (dependency:tree goal) knows how to generate graphml, but only per module. And if I use the append flag, it simply shoves everything to a single file, so the output is a corrupted graphml.
I also found this tool<https://github.com/janssk1/maven-graph-plugin/wiki/Manual> but it seems that there is no way to control module granularity.
My last resort would be to parse the output of dependency:tree, but I thought I'll consult the community before this.

Yes, you are mistaken. It creates a graph of the submodules dependencies based on the <dependencies> section in the poms of the reactor (and maybe also the transitive dependencies, can't remember). Just make sure you run it from the root pom and that you run the right mojo (reactor)

Thanks Alejandro, what I meant is being able to plot the dependencies in a multi-module project. As far as I see- maven-graph-plugin generates a graph per module. Am I mistaken?

If by module granularity you mean excluding/including certain modules, check this pull request I did on the maven-graph-plugin that has never been and probably will never be merged to the main line (Ah the beauty of opensource, you scratch your own itch and contribute it to the community but nobody cares). It does what I think you are asking for: it introduces a list of included/excluded groupIds.
https://github.com/fusesource/mvnplugins/pull/5
You would have to check it out and build it locally, but it worked fine last time I tried it over a year ago.
It currently does not allow filtering based on artifactId, but if you look at the diff, you can see that it would be fairly easy to introduce that change. For me, filtering by groupId was enough since I wanted to visualize only our group's dependencies
Hope it helps,
Alejandro

I wanted to do this at one point. I just wrote a quick perl script to go through the XML of all my pom files, parse dependencies, and create an edge-list from module to dependency. You can use GraphViz, Gephi, Tulip, or some other visualizer to look at your dependencies.
Seriously, writing a quick parser utility for pom.xml files isn't so bad. It's xml. -- Larry Bordowitz

I used the maven-graph-plugin successfully too but sent the output through an XSLT to strip out stuff I didn't want.
