quickdeps
quickdeps simply scans jar files for META-INF/maven**/pom.properties and/or its sha1 on search.maven.org
If it finds, it returns the suitable <dependency/> tag, thus making it easy for one to quickly import a project.
Usage
Practical example (repo: benmfaul/XRTB, rtb4free):
$ quickdeps libs/*.jar

Why?
Because I'm lazy. Converting mass codebases to Maven really is made easy by using quickdeps. :)
how to install it?
simply download bin/quickdeps on this repo:
$ curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ingenieux/quickdeps/bin/quickdeps > ~/bin/quickdeps
or:
$ git clone https://github.com/ingenieux/quickdeps.git && cd quickdeps
$ mvn -Pexec-jar package
Hope it helps!
