Java11 / JavaFX and Maven will not run outside of NetBeans IDE 9

As per JavaFX deployment library not found in active JDK

I used José Pereda Maven approach and it works well in NetBeans but as soon as I try and run it outside with "java -jar mavenproject1-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar" I get the following error
"Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this application"
The "md.mavenproject1.MainApp" is just a temp name while I try and figure this out.
My pom file looks like:

Any help you can give me will be of great help as I am thinking of switching my highschool programming kids from ant to maven with the change in JavaFX but they will want to be able to take there programs home to use. I am running OpenJDK 11 on my system.
**edit **
I changed the line to run the program to:

java --module-path c:\javafx-sdk-11\lib --add-modules javafx.controls -jar mavenproject1-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

and now I get:

Exception running application md.mavenproject1.MainApp

I though with using maven's dependencies that I wouldn't need to use the local jdk. Any help anyone could give would be really helpful. If I take out the dependencies and use Oracle java 10 jdk the program and run outside of netbeans but with java 11 it only runs inside. Please help.

** EDIT **

By editing the pom file and removing:
 <plugin>
                <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <phase>package</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>single</goal>
                        </goals>

                    </descriptorRefs>
                </configuration>
            </plugin> 

and instead using:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

            <plugin>

                            <classpathPrefix>lib/</classpathPrefix>
                            <mainClass>${mainClass}</mainClass>
                        </manifest>
                    </archive>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

I was now able to change the start up line to use the attached JavaFX lib that I added instead of having to use the SDK that I downloaded.

java --module-path lib --add-modules javafx.controls --add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.util=ALL-UNNAMED --add-exports=javafx.base/com.sun.javafx.reflect=ALL-UNNAMED --add-exports=javafx.base/com.sun.javafx.beans=ALL-UNNAMED --add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.glass.utils=ALL-UNNAMED --add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.tk=ALL-UNNAMED -jar mavenproject1-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

I would like to make it include the jre instead of using the local one. If anyone has any idea how it would be great.

Can you use JavaFX with Maven?

If you want to develop JavaFX applications using Maven, you don't have to download the JavaFX SDK. Just specify the modules and the versions you want in the pom.xml , and the build system will download the required modules, including the native libraries for your platform.

How add JavaFX to NetBeans?

Right-click the Libraries folder in your project, select the Add Library... command, then choose JavaFX 13 from the list of global libraries. If you don't have that library, then you need to go back to the previous section. Finally, add a new JavaFX Main Class... to the project's package.

How do I run JavaFX application?

JavaFX applications can be run in several ways: Launch as a desktop application from a JAR file or self-contained application launcher. Launch from the command line using the Java launcher. Launch by clicking a link in the browser to download an application.

How do I check my JavaFX version?

One of simple ways is to simply read the javafx. properties file located in your $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib directory. I installed java 1.8. 0-31 and so I'm getting javafx.

One way to fix that would be to append the following args to the command line

--add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.util=ALL-UNNAMED
