A. Building & Installing Falcon
===============================

0. Prerequisites
------------------

You would need the following installed:

* JDK 1.7
* Maven 3.x

*Note:* To build Falcon on Ubuntu/Centos set umask to 022. To do so, add the following line in ~/.bashrc or
        ~/.bash_profile.
        umask 022

1. Building Falcon
------------------

a. Building falcon from the source release
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* tar -xzvf apache-falcon-${project.version}-source.tar.gz
* cd falcon-sources-${project.version}

* export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -noverify" && mvn clean install

[optionally -Dhadoop.version=<<hadoop.version>> can be appended to build for a specific version of hadoop]
*Note:* Falcon drops support for Hadoop-1 and only supports Hadoop-2 from Falcon 0.6 onwards
        Falcon build with JDK 1.7 using -noverify option
        To compile Falcon with Hive Replication, optionally "-P hadoop-2,hivedr" can be appended. For this
        Hive >= 1.2.0 and Oozie >= 4.2.0 should be available.


b. Building falcon from the source repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/falcon.git falcon
* cd falcon
* export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -noverify" && mvn clean install

[optionally -Dhadoop.version=<<hadoop.version>> can be appended to build for a specific version of hadoop]
*Note:* Falcon drops support for Hadoop-1 and only supports Hadoop-2 from Falcon 0.6 onwards
        Falcon build with JDK 1.7 using -noverify option
        To compile Falcon with Hive Replication, optionally "-P hadoop-2,hivedr" can be appended. For this
        Hive >= 1.2.0 and Oozie >= 4.2.0 should be available.


2. Deploying Falcon
-------------------

Once the build successfully completes, artifacts can be packaged for deployment.
By default the falcon is built for embedded mode.

* mvn clean assembly:assembly -DskipTests -DskipITs

Tar can be found in {project dir}/target/apache-falcon-${project.version}-bin.tar.gz

Tar is structured as follows

|- bin
   |- falcon
   |- falcon-start
   |- falcon-stop
   |- falcon-config.sh
   |- service-start.sh
   |- service-stop.sh
|- conf

   |- runtime.properties
   |- client.properties
   |- log4j.xml
   |- falcon-env.sh
|- docs
