We use Apache Maven to build the code, distribution, etc. and to manage dependencies.
We use gitbook to build the docs.
The minimum required Maven version is 3.0.0.
Note that there are some compatibility issues with Maven 3.X still unsolved. This is specially true for the 'site' plugin.
The full release uses gitbook to build a static website from the documentation. This is automatically installed using
an NPM plugin and is controlled via a package.json file.
Install NPM using the instructions below
cd artemis-website
alter the `package.json` changing the version
npm cache clean; rm -rf ./node_modules/ ./node npm-shrinkwrap.json
npm install --save-dev
npm shrinkwrap --dev
The new npm-shrinkwrap.json should be written, commit it.
Artemis will automate the execution and download of npm. But it may be useful to install it on your system. Simply type:
$ npm install -g gitbook-cli
If you don't have npm installed then you would need to install it first.
$ yum install npm
This is what you should do if you are using Fedora 24+.
$ dnf install nodejs
The easiest way would be through brew brew
You first install brew using the instructions on the brew website.
After you installed brew you can install npm by:
brew install npm
To build the full release with documentation, Javadocs, and the full web site:
$ mvn -Prelease package
To install it to your local maven repo:
$ mvn -Prelease install
It is possible to build a distribution without the manuals and Javadocs. simply run
$ mvn package
From either docs/hacking-guide/en or docs/user-manual/en run gitbook build (after you've installed gitbook)
