| Building Edgent from a Source Distribution |
| |
| Apache Edgent is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), |
| sponsored by the Incubator PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted |
| projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, |
| and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other |
| successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection |
| of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project |
| has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. |
| |
| Apache Edgent is released under the Apache License Version 2.0. |
| |
| Apache Edgent is supported on several Java target platforms. |
| For more information see JAVA_SUPPORT.md in the source tree |
| or in the ASF git repository https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-edgent.git |
| or in the repository mirror at github https://github.com/apache/incubator-edgent. |
| |
| Pre-requisites: |
| - Java 8 is required to build an Edgent binary distribution |
| - gradle (https://gradle.org/) only if building from a source release bundle |
| |
| Building from a source release bundle (lacking a ./gradlew) requires |
| performing a one-time bootstrap step using an installed version of gradle: |
| |
| $ gradle # one time gradle build bootstrap setup. |
| |
| Build an Edgent binary distribution: |
| |
| $ ./gradlew release # .\gradlew.bat on Windows |
| |
| The build reports the location of the binary distribution bundle that can then |
| be unpacked and used in building applications. |
