<h2><a name="Basic_use"></a>Basic use</h2>
<p>Basic use means that you configure the plugin from the POM. However, it doesn't run automatically, but on demand:</p>
<div>
<pre> mvn apache-rat:check</pre></div>
<p>To achieve that, a section like the following needs to be added to your POM:</p>
<div>
<pre> &lt;build&gt;
&lt;plugins&gt;
...
&lt;plugin&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.apache.rat&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;apache-rat-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;0.17-SNAPSHOT&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;/plugin&gt;
...
&lt;/plugins&gt;
&lt;/build&gt;</pre></div></section>
