You need to use FreeMarker to write templates that can reference variables, object properties, and DOM Node objects.

To use Freemarker in a Maven 2 project, add the following dependency to your project's pom.xml:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.freemarker</groupId>
        <artifactId>freemarker</artifactId>
        <version>2.3.15</version>
    </dependency>

If you are not sure what this means, I'd suggest reading Maven: The Definitive Guide. When you depend on a library in Maven 2, all you need to do is add the dependency groupId, artifactId, and version to your project's dependencies. Once you do this, Maven 2 will download the dependency and make it available on your project's classpath.
