The Eclipse-based LDAP browser and directory client.
Apache Directory Studio is a complete directory tooling platform intended to be used with any LDAP server however it is particularly designed for use with ApacheDS. It is an Eclipse RCP application, composed of several Eclipse (OSGi) plugins, that can be easily upgraded with additional ones. These plugins can even run within Eclipse itself.
export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m"
You can use either of those two methods to build the project :
Build the ‘Eclipse Target Platform’ and generate MANIFEST.MF files first
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install
Build the main eclipse artifacts using Tycho
mvn clean install
On Linux / macOS :
$ ./build.sh
or on Windows :
> build.bat
Unit tests included in src/test/java of each plugin are executed automatically and run in ‘test’ phase
Core integration tests in tests/test.integration.core are executed automatically and run in ‘integration-test’ phase
SWTBot based UI integration tests in tests/test.integration.ui are disabled by default. They can be enabled with -Denable-ui-tests
. A failing test generates a screenshot. To not block the developer computer they can run within a virtual framebuffer:
export DISPLAY=:99 Xvfb :99 -screen 0 1024x768x16 &
Tycho doesn't handle snapshot dependencies well. The first time a snapshot dependency is used within the build it is cached in ~/.m2/repository/p2
. Afterwards any change in the dependency (e.g. ApacheDS or LDAP API) is not considered unless it is deleted from the cache.
To delete all Apache Directory related snapshots run:
rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/p2/osgi/bundle/org.apache.directory.* <workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.bundle_pool/*
Recommended IDE is ‘Eclipse for RCP and RAP Developers’: https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/
Import ‘Eclipse Target Platform’ project first
Initialize target platform
eclipse-trgt-platform.target
file with the ‘Target Editor’Import the main plugins
During import some Maven plugin connectors need to be installed, accept the installation and restart.
The build produces binaries for all platforms. Archived versions can be found in product/target/products/
, unpacked versions can be found below product/target/products/org.apache.directory.studio.product
The root directory contains LICENSE and NOTICE files for the source distribution. The product directory contains LICENSE and NOTICE files for the binary distributions, including licenses for bundled dependencies.
We release the following artifacts:
Update the copyright year. Full text search/replace “2006-2020”. Also change in plugins/rcp/src/main/resources/splash.bmp
image.
Test the release build: rat check, javadoc and source jar generation, installer generation, GPG signing, userguide generation:
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install mvn -Papache-release,windows,macos -Duserguides clean install
Note: During creation of the macOS installer (DMG) the ApacheDirectoryStudio.app is signed with the ASF “Developer ID Application” key. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-16978 for the process to get one.
Test the build and sign process for distribution packages:
export VERSION=2.0.0-SNAPSHOT export RELEASE_KEY=28686142 cd dist ./dist.sh
Test the distribution packages:
Run UI tests (if possible on all platforms):
mvn clean install -Denable-ui-tests
As Tycho doesn't support the maven-release-plugin the release process is as follows:
We use a release number scheme that suites for both, Maven and Eclipse.
<MAJOR>.<MINOR>.<PATCH>.v<YYYYMMDD>[-M<X>|RC<X>]
Example for milestone version: 2.0.0.v20150529-M9
. Example for GA version: 2.0.1.v20150529
.
Define a variable for later use:
export VERSION=2.0.0.v20150529-M9
git checkout -b $VERSION-prepare git push origin $VERSION-prepare
As long as the org.apache.directory.studio.openldap.feature
is not ready for release it needs to be removed from product/org.apache.directory.studio.product
.
find . -name pom-first.xml | xargs sed -i 's/2.0.0-SNAPSHOT/'$VERSION'/' find . -name pom-first.xml | xargs sed -i 's/2.0.0.qualifier/'$VERSION'/' sed -i 's/2.0.0-SNAPSHOT/'$VERSION'/' pom.xml mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install git checkout pom.xml mvn org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-versions-plugin:1.2.0:set-version -DnewVersion=$VERSION git commit -am "Set version number for release $VERSION" git push origin $VERSION-prepare
git tag $VERSION git push origin $VERSION
Run the actual release within a fresh checkout to ensure no previous build artifacts are used.
mkdir studio-release cd studio-release git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/directory-studio.git . git checkout $VERSION
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install mvn -Papache-release,windows,macos -Duserguides -DretryFailedDeploymentCount=3 clean deploy
See https://repository.apache.org/#stagingRepositories
There is a script that collects and signs all update sites and distribution packages.
For non-interactive signing with GPG agent define env variable:
export RELEASE_KEY=28686142
Run the dist script:
cd dist ./dist.sh
Afterwards all distribution packages and user guides are located in target
.
cd target/dist/$VERSION svn mkdir https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/studio/$VERSION -m "Create dev area for release $VERSION" svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/studio/$VERSION . svn add * svn commit -m "Add release $VERSION" cd ../../..
cd target/ug/$VERSION svn mkdir https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/production/directory/content/studio/users-guide/$VERSION -m "Create user guides area for release $VERSION" svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/production/directory/content/studio/users-guide/$VERSION . svn add * svn commit -m "Add release $VERSION" cd ../../..
Note: This publishes the user guides directly to the production CMS!
Also update the content/extpaths.txt
and whitelist the new version.
Start the vote.
After successful vote publish the artifacts.
Release artifacts in Nexus.
Move distribution packages from dev
area to release
:
svn mv https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/studio/$VERSION https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/directory/studio/$VERSION -m "Release $VERSION"
Wait 24h for mirror rsync.
The update site https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/site/trunk/content/studio/update needs to be updated.
In the following files
compositeArtifacts--xml.html
compositeContent--xml.html
product/compositeArtifacts--xml.html
product/compositeContent--xml.html
change the location path to the new release and also update the p2.timestamp
to the current timestamp milliseconds (hint: date +%s000
)
Update news and download links
lib/path.pm
: $version_studio
and $version_studio_name
content/index.mdtext
: version stringcontent/studio/changelog.mdtext
content/studio/news.mdtext
content/studio/users-guide.mdtext
Update entry in Eclipse Marketplace: https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/apache-directory-studio
Also test to install the plugins from marketplace.
Add release to https://reporter.apache.org/?directory
Send the release announce email.
Delete old releases from https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/directory/studio/
, ensure they were already archived to https://archive.apache.org/dist/directory/studio/
.
