If you'd like to use a .jar file in your project, but it's not available in any Maven repository, 
you can get around this by creating your own local repository. This is done as follows:

1 - To configure the local repository, add the following section to your pom.xml (inside the <project> tag):
  
  <repositories>
      <repository>
        <id>in-project</id>
        <name>In Project Repo</name>
        <url>file://${project.basedir}/libs</url>
