service bus maven error - unknown packaging sbar - maven

Question

I am new to maven / pom.xml and am following the below link to create an oracle service bus project and package it into custom packaging type "sbar".
https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/1213/core/MAVEN/osb_maven_project.htm#MAVEN8971
The Project gets generated properly (from the command --> mvn archetype:generate ... ) but when I execute the below command I get an error
mvn package -DoracleHome=/path/to/osbhome
[ERROR] Unknown packaging: sbar # line 16, column 16

I am using JDeveloper 12.1.3.0.0 and Maven 3.0.5.
(I get the same error if I run it either from JDeveloper or from command promt)
Please help me solve this error.
Thanks in Advance !

I haven't really sat down to work with any of the Maven POM's for OSB, SOA, etc., but I do know that your maven plugin probably isn't on the default M2 repository. It probably can't find your packaging type of sbar because it's not included in your repository. I'm assuming you're using their supplied maven and maven repo following this guide: https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/1213/core/MAVEN/config_maven.htm#MAVEN8853
