This plugin provides an interactive environment for executing Maven goals for a project. This cuts down on the JVM and Maven start-up times allowing for lightning-fast repetitive execution of Maven.

The console simply loads the current project.xml and waits for the user to supply a goal (or other command) to execute. The following commands are currently implemented:

• help - displays the valid commands for the console
• list - lists valid goals for the loaded project

For more information on the functionality provided by this plugin, please see the Goals document.

You can customize some features with properties.
