Building a site using the Eclipse Maven Plugin
I would like to create a "site" containing test reports for my Maven Java project. However, all the online resources I found spoke of the "mvn site" command. However, I am on Windows, so I would like to avoid interacting with the console.
Can I do this using the Eclipse Maven Plugin exclusively? If I want to tell Maven to build my project, I can right-click it and then select Run As Maven Install. Is there something similar for generating websites?
Thanks everyone in advance!

Why hate specifically for the Windows command line? What have you done to deserve a cold shoulder?
Anyway, and more seriously: Eclipse allows you to define launch configurations yourself. run -> run. In the "maven build" section, you can add a new configuration to build the mvn site. This page provides an introduction by demonstrating how to perform a clean install:
