title: Liquibase with Maven
body: <p>I want to launch Liquibase for a Java EE - project, so I can make easy DB-Updates at the production server.</p>
  
  <p>I have problems understanding what do i need for the start. I read at many examples that you need to download the liquibase-core, extract it and put the .jar to your PATH. I think that this is not needed for Maven.</p>
  
  <p><strong>To include the dependencies (the core and the liquibase-maven-plugin) at the pom.xml should be enough/ should be the same?</strong> </p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;dependency&gt;
          &lt;groupId&gt;org.liquibase&lt;/groupId&gt;
          &lt;artifactId&gt;liquibase-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
          &lt;version&gt;2.0.5&lt;/version&gt;
          &lt;type&gt;maven-plugin&lt;/type&gt;
      &lt;/dependency&gt;
      &lt;dependency&gt;
          &lt;groupId&gt;org.liquibase&lt;/groupId&gt;
          &lt;artifactId&gt;liquibase-core&lt;/artifactId&gt;
          &lt;version&gt;2.0.5&lt;/version&gt;
      &lt;/dependency&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is probably a silly question, but I have hardly experience with Maven and none with Liquibase.</p>
