Java code in the aurora repo is built with Gradle.
You will need Java 7 installed and on your PATH or unzipped somewhere with JAVA_HOME set. Then
./gradlew tasks
will bootstrap the build system and show available tasks. This can take a while the first time you run it but subsequent runs will be much faster due to cached artifacts.
Aurora has a comprehensive unit test suite. To run the tests use
./gradlew build
Gradle will only re-run tests when dependencies of them have changed. To force a re-run of all tests use
./gradlew clean build
To speed up development iteration, the plain gradle commands will not run static analysis tools. However, you should run these before posting a review diff, and always run this before pushing a commit to origin/master.
./gradlew build -Pq
Gradle can create a zip file containing Aurora, all of its dependencies, and a launch script with
./gradlew distZip
or a tar file containing the same files with
./gradlew distTar
The output file will be written to dist/distributions/aurora-scheduler.zip or dist/distributions/aurora-scheduler.tar.
Gradle can generate project files for your IDE. To generate an IntelliJ IDEA project run
./gradlew idea
and import the generated aurora.ipr file.
New dependencies can be added from Maven central by adding a compile dependency to build.gradle. For example, to add a dependency on com.example's example-lib 1.0 add this block:
compile 'com.example:example-lib:1.0'
NOTE: Anyone thinking about adding a new dependency should first familiarize themself with the Apache Foundation's third-party licensing policy.
Third party JS libraries used in Aurora (located at 3rdparty/javascript/bower_components) are managed by bower, a JS dependency manager. Bower is only required if you plan to add, remove or update JS libraries. Bower can be installed using the following command:
npm install -g bower
Bower depends on node.js and npm. The easiest way to install node on a mac is via brew:
brew install node
For more node.js installation options refer to https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Installation.
More info on installing and using bower can be found at: http://bower.io/. Once installed, you can use the following commands to view and modify the bower repo at 3rdparty/javascript/bower_components
bower list bower install <library name> bower remove <library name> bower update <library name> bower help
The scheduler serves UI assets from the classpath. For production deployments this means the assets are served from within a jar. However, for faster development iteration, the vagrant image is configured to add /vagrant/dist/resources/main to the head of CLASSPATH. This path is configured as a shared filesystem to the path on the host system where your Aurora repository lives. This means that any updates to dist/resources/main in your checkout will be reflected immediately in the UI served from within the vagrant image.
The one caveat to this is that this path is under dist not src. This is because the assets must be processed by gradle before they can be served. So, unfortunately, you cannot just save your local changes and see them reflected in the UI, you must first run ./gradlew processResources. This is less than ideal, but better than having to restart the scheduler after every change. Additionally, gradle makes this process somewhat easier with the use of the --continuous flag. If you run: ./gradlew processResources --continuous gradle will monitor the filesystem for changes and run the task automatically as necessary. This doesn't quite provide hot-reload capabilities, but it does allow for <5s from save to changes being visibile in the UI with no further action required on the part of the developer.
The following files were autogenerated by gradle wrapper using gradle 1.8's Wrapper plugin and should not be modified directly:
./gradlew ./gradlew.bat ./gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar ./gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties
To upgrade Gradle unpack the new version somewhere, run /path/to/new/gradle wrapper in the repository root and commit the changed files.
See this document for any thrift related changes.
