Error running archetype:generate to generate skeleton
When trying to run the archetype
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=io.confluent.maven -DarchetypeArtifactId=kafka-connect-quickstart -DarchetypeVersion=0.10.0.0 -Dpackage=io.confluent.examples.kafka.connect.twitter -DgroupId=io.confluent.examples -DartifactId=kafka-connect-twitter -DpackageName=io.confluent.examples.kafka.connect.twitter -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT
(in an empty directory) to generate a skeleton I get the following errors -
[INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 0.115 s [INFO] Finished at: 2019-04-05T14:46:33+13:00 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] The goal you specified requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory (D:\Dev\sandpit\connect-quickstart).

there is no POM in this directory
In theory, you would only get this error if the archetype:generate goal did not execute, and just mvn was interpreted by the terminal
In any case, I'm not able to reproduce, but I suggest starting simpler
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=io.confluent.maven -DarchetypeArtifactId=kafka-connect-quickstart
However, that command itself does not follow what is written in the README
