When i run the following command mvn io.github.coolbeevip:license-maven-plugin:1.16.0:dependency-license-export -Ddeep=1 -Dlicense=true, i get thr following error:

Execution default-cli of goal io.github.coolbeevip:license-maven-plugin:1.16.0:dependency-license-export failed: The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.chrome.driver system property.

I appreciate the reminder, I had forgotten to include this part in my writing.

You must download and install ChromeDriver manually to match your local Chrome browser version. Verify the successful installation by running the following command:

$ chromedriver --version
ChromeDriver 92.0.4515.107 (87a818b10553a07434ea9e2b6dccf3cbe7895134-refs/branch-heads/4515@{#1634})

The analyzed LICENSE information will be stored in the data file ~/.m2/mvnrepository.mapdb, and when analyzed again, it will prioritize extracting LICENSE information from the data file. You can also download the author's mvnrepository.mapdb file and place it in the local ~/.m2/ directory. This data file contains some commonly used dependency information by the author.

BTW: It will try to crawl https://search.maven.org/artifact/ data to obtain License information. Please be sure to use it with caution.

You can see the license parameter's effect in this video https://youtu.be/hhC0m-OZgfM.
