Thank you.
A beta version is scheduled by the month of may.
I'm including below a documentation initiated by Tuan on how to build the WebOS. We should publish it on the wiki soon.
1.1; Create base structure
--------------------------
- Create a "java" directory. We will call it $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY. By default the $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY
directory should be in your $HOME directory in linux and in D: drive on window
- Install jdk and maven2 in the java directory
- Create exo-dependencies and exo-working directories in the java directory
- Copy a template tomcat directory to exo-dependencies. the directory name should have the form
tomcat-${version}.
- By the end You should have the following directory structure
java/
exo-dependencies/
tomcat-${version}
jboss-${version}
exo-working
jdk1.5
maven2
1.2; Check-out
--------------
- Go to your $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY and run the following command :
svn co
svn+ssh://exo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/svnroot/exoplatform/projects eXoProjects
1.3; Configure environment
--------------------------
- Copy $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY/eXoProjects/tools/trunk/config/maven2/template-
settings.xml your
$HOME/.m2/settings.xml and adapt the configuration to your environment. If you do this ,
the maven2/conf/settings.xml will be ignored. This step is mandatory for the window environment.
For the linux or cygwin enviroment you can bypass this step as the exoenv.sh script can copy and
configure the settings.xml file automatically for you
- On Linux or Cygwin Environment
* Copy $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY/eXoProjects/tools/trunk/build/src/main/resources/linux/exoenv.sh
to your $HOME or $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY directory. Backup the old one if you have one.
- On Window And DOS Environment
* Copy $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY/eXoProjects/tools/trunk/build/src/main/resources/window/exoenv.bat
to your $HOME or $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY directory. Backup the old one if you have one.
- Update The Configuration
* Edit the exoenv.sh or exoenv.bat file to adapt it to your environment. You should only
have to change the PORTABLE_DIR variable at the beginning.
* Run the command to setup the environment:
On linux or cygwin: source exoenv.sh
To check that it has worked well, open the $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY/maven2/conf/settings.xml
and check that the file corresponds with your environment, especially the definition
of the repositories.
On window and dos prompt: exoenv.bat
1.4; Build and deploy
---------------------
Usage the exobuild command:
exobuild --product=[portal,ecm,groupware] [--update] [--build-dependencies] [--deploy=tomcat,jboss,jonas]
Options:
* --product is mandatory. The possible names are portal, ecm, groupware, all
* --update is optional. If you add this option, exobuild will make a
svn update before it builds
* --build is optional. If you add this option, the exobuild command
will compile and install the sub projects of the product,
* --build-dependencies is optional. If you add this option, the exobuild command
will build the dependant modules of the product,
for example: kernel, core, portal...
* --deploy is optional. The possible names are tomcat-server, jboss-server, and
jonas-server. If you enter only --deploy, the tomcat-server will be used
* --database is optional. This option must use with the --deploy option. The possible
values are hsql, mysql, oracle, postgres, derby and mssql
* --ask is optional. This option is used with --database option. it allow you to
enter the connection url , username and password of the database server
For Example:
exobuild --product=ecm --build --build-dependencies --deploy
Will build kernel, core, portal, jcr , pc and ecm and then deploy
1.5; Launch Tomcat
------------------
On Linux or Cygwin Environment
- Go to $EXO_BASE_DIRECTORY/exo-working/exo-tomcat/bin directory
- Change the rights on .sh files to make them executable : chmod +x *.sh
- Run the command : eXo.sh run
1.6; Access The Portal
----------------------------
- Open Firefox or IE6/7
- Enter
http://localhost:8080/ecmportal/
in the address bar
-Brice.
