# Maven Check Versions

Is a Python package designed for analyzing Maven POM files and managing dependencies.
It checks the versions of dependencies in a project and identifies the latest available versions in Maven repositories.
Developed for developers, this package simplifies dependency management in Maven-based projects.
It is especially useful in CI/CD environments, where maintaining consistency and up-to-date dependencies is critical.

---

## Features

- **Dependency Analysis:** Parses Maven POM files to analyze dependencies and plugins.
- **Version Checking:** Identifies outdated dependencies and checks versions against customizable thresholds.
- **Artifact Search:** Finds specific artifacts using `groupId:artifactId:version` format.
- **Repository Support:** Integrates with HTTP-based Maven repositories, including REST services.
- **Module Processing:** Processes nested modules in Maven projects.
- **Caching:** Caches results for faster rechecks.
- **Logging:** Provides configurable logging for detailed analysis.
- **Command-Line Interface:** Easily integrates into CI/CD pipelines.

---

## Installation

You can install the tool via `pip`:

```bash
pip install maven_check_versions
```

---

## Usage

Run the script directly from the command line:

```bash
python -m maven_check_versions --pom_file <path-to-pom.xml>
```

### Example Commands:

- Analyze a specific POM file:
  ```bash
  python -m maven_check_versions --pom_file <path-to-pom.xml>
  ```

- Search for a specific artifact:
  ```bash
  python -m maven_check_versions --find_artifact com.example:my-lib:1.0
  ```

- Enable CI mode to suppress prompts:
  ```bash
  python -m maven_check_versions --ci_mode
  ```
