为什么引用Maven自带的插件不需要指定goal，而自定义的需要指定？

Answer 1

实际上 Maven 插件除了是绑定在生命周期的那种以外，其余所有插件都要声明 goal

请看 spring boot 的打包插件，也是要声明 goal

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>${spring-boot.version}</version>
    <configuration>
        <fork>true</fork>
        <mainClass>${start-class}</mainClass>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>repackage</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>
