How can I set eclipse to publish maven web projects automatically like the way we can setup regular web projects?
When you say publish I assume that you want to publish it to an embedded app server like Tomcat. I follow one of the below approaches.
Option 1:
Install m2eclipse.
Import the web project as a maven project.
Right click the project and Run as Run on Server.
Option 2:
Install m2eclipse.
Import the web project as Java project.
Right click -> Configure -> Convert to Maven Project.
Right click the project and Run as Run on Server.

My colleague just set up a Dynamic Web Project in Eclipse and he also configured the server. He shared the entire project on a git repository and I cloned it. When I try to run the html file I click on 'run on server' but then I'm not able to choose an existing server already configured. Eclipse force me to create a new server with default configuration. I am attaching a screenshot of Eclipse

Help --> Install new software ---> install " eclipse repository - https://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen ".
Then install the package for -- Web,XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development.
Reboot your computer and eclipse. Then it will work. Good luck.
It works for me:
Properties -> Project Facets and do it like this
Right click on you project and go to properties. Go to Project Facets and on Dynamic Web Module click the little drop down menu and select 3.1. I initially had it at 4.0 and it was not supported in my version of Eclipse.
I recently upgrade to Eclipse Kepler and I loose the context menu option Tomcat project to create war file to deploy an application.
What can I do?
I am not that much familiar with this plugin.
But can you verify your installation from its official page link .
Its mentioned that you need to add a couple of other dependencies manually. Like DevLoader.jar and the Sysdeo Eclipse Tomcat Launcher plugin
Edit
If you just want to deploy the project to your tomcat, you can use the Run as option as well. Just right click on the project, select Run as and then Run on Server
And to make a war, you can simply export as war from the export option (Right click on project -> export
)
I have installed the Tomcat plugin and it works if i create a New Dynamic Web Project, and import an existing basic maven webapp into it. I can run it with the option of running it "as server".
However, when i did an Import existing project, in Eclipse, of an existing basic maven app, I had to right-click on the Project, choose Configure and convert it to a Faceted project, then right-click on the Project, choose Properties, and choose Targeted runtimes, and choose Tomcat and JRE. However, i still cannot run the project, "as server". When i click Run, i just see Java Applet, Java Application and JUnit Test as the options with which to run the project. I don't see Server.
Looks like the answer is:
May be Dynamic Web Module in Project Facet is not selected
Go to :- Project > Properties > Project Facets > check Dynamic Web Module
Answer from Mohit Saluja for the following question: Eclipse Juno, maven project not able to run on server
Navigate to Project > Properties > Project Facets .
In the Runtimes Tab check the apache version which is installed in your lappy, and uncheck others .
Import the project as an existing maven project (you'll need m2e installed and either m2e-wtp or webby) and the maven configurators should set it up as a dynamic web project for you and get you ready to go. Then with m2e you can "run on server" or with webby you can "run as webby"
I have started working with Mule. I am working with Mule Studio. This looks good.
But when I want to create a Mule project in Eclipse I am struck.
Please suggest me how I can create a Mule project in Eclipse.
Option 1: With Mule IDE Plugin for Eclipse.
You can use the Mule IDE plugin from eclipse. This helps in creating the mule project in eclipse.
To add plugins please start eclipse and navigate to help->install new software -> Add site and select the artifacts presented
Add muleide (mule plugin) - http://dist.muleforge.org/mule-ide/updates/3.4/
Then restart Eclipse after the plugin installation and You can create a Mule Project under the New Project option.
Option 2: Without Mule IDE. With Maven and Eclipse.
Open Command prompt.
Run the following Maven command to create a Mule project.
mvn org.mule.tools:mule-project-archetype:3.3.0:create -DartifactId=MySampleMuleProj -DmuleVersion=3.3.0
Then run the follwoing commands.
mvn clean compile
mvn eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse
After this open Eclipse IDE
Import this project into the eclipse workspace.
Note: Use Import "Existing Maven Project" option for importing this project.
To run the Mule project in eclipse forllow the below steps.
1. Goto Run -> Run Configurations in eclipse and select Java Application.
2. Click on New launch configuration and enter name of the configuration(for ex. MyMuleProj).
3. Select MyMuleProj as a project and Main class "org.mule.MuleServer".
4. Click on Arguments tab and enter Program arguments "-config src/main/app/mule-config.xml".
You can see the Mule project up and Running.
:) Happy Learning.
You can import your existing project in eclipse or if you've a Maven project, create an Other project and select Maven-> Checkout Maven Projects from SCM or create a Java project. There are so many ways to do it.
I run my mule project in eclipse through MuleServer class and passing mule-config.xml as program argument.
Actually Mule Anypoint Studio is built on Eclipse. If you want to import any maven project, then do this : mvn clean compile
mvn eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse
I upgraded to Eclipse Juno(for Java EE developers). I installed Maven Integration for Eclipse through marketplace.
Just to test, I created a web app using maven-archetype-webapp. I cannot run on server(There's no menu Run On Server). The same happens with another maven project which runs fine using Eclipse Indigo. A tried deleting .settings, .classpath, .project then re-importing the project but nothing. I was hoping so much on Juno!
Does anyone know a real solution to this problem?

How about installing the m2e-wtp plugin and trying? You would want to confirm that the maven project is of war packaging as well.
Run on server is not a maven feature, it's a "classic eclipse" feature.
In order to run a maven project on a server you must adopt a plug-in (e.g a Jetty plug-in for your webapp) and the run the proper maven goal (e.g jetty-run).
Said this, you can run a web project on a server with (right-click) > Run as > Run on server if you have the proper runtime environment configured.
Enabling "Dynamic Web Module" in Project Facets may not help here in maven projects.
Because maven projects are structured differently (target/sampleApp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war) than the normal Dynamic Web Projects (WebContent/).
So, If you use Dynamic Web Module manually, then eclipse will try to use "WebContent" directory structure as deployment directory for Application Server which won't be the case in maven projects.
Solution is to use m2e-wtp plugin to do the deployment.
If you installed m2e-wtp plugin, it'll automatically detect your maven project type & it'll show you the "Run as Server" option in "Run as" menu in "Project".
