| <p>This tutorial will guide you to set up Jena on your Eclipse. At the time of writing, the |
| latest version of Eclipse is 4.7.0. The version of Java used for this tutorial was Java |
| 1.8.0_121. The operational system should not be a problem, so the only requirements are |
| Eclipse, Java 1.8.x, and git to checkout the Jena source code.</p> |
| <h2 id="setting-up-your-environment">Setting up your environment</h2> |
| <p>The first thing you will need to install is a Java JDK 1.8.x. The installation instructions |
| vary depending on the operating system, and will not be covered in this tutorial.</p> |
| <p>Once you have Java installed, you can proceed installing Eclipse. You can either download |
| an Eclipse distribution, or download the installer and choose one amongst the available |
| packages. For this tutorial, you will see instructions and screenshots taken from an |
| Eclipse IDE for Java Developers.</p> |
| <p>Eclipse comes with a bundled Apache Maven, but you may prefer to install it to another |
| directory and customize your local settings. As this is not a must have requirement, this |
| will not be covered in this tutorial.</p> |
| <h2 id="getting-the-source-code">Getting the source code</h2> |
| <p>Follow the instructions from our <a href="/getting_involved/index.html">Getting involved in Apache Jena</a> |
| page to check out the code from the Git repository. Most developers will check out the code into |
| their Eclipse workspace folder. But you should be able to import it into Eclipse from a |
| different folder too, as will be shown in the next sections.</p> |
| <p>Do not forget to run <code>mvn clean install</code> as instructed, so that Eclipse will be able to |
| find all local artifacts with no issues.</p> |
| <h2 id="importing-the-source-code-into-eclipse">Importing the source code into Eclipse</h2> |
| <p>Eclipse comes, by default, with Maven integration. In the past you would have to install |
| and configure a plug-in for that. But assuming you followed the instructions from the previous |
| sections, you should be ready to import the source code.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-001.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Eclipse workspace"> |
| <p>In the previous picture, you can see an empty Eclipse workspace. The view was configured to |
| display working sets, and there is a Jena working set already created. This is not necessary |
| for this tutorial, but you may find it useful if you work on separate projects at the same |
| time (e.g. working on Apache Commons RDF and Apache Jena projects simultaneously).</p> |
| <p>Eclipse keeps, by default, your projects on the left hand side panel. Right click somewhere |
| on that panel and choose <i>Import</i>. Alternatively, you can navigate using the top menu |
| to <i>File</i> / <i>Import</i>.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-002.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Import project context menu"> |
| <p>That will open a menu dialog, where you should find several types of projects to |
| import into your workspace. For Jena, you must select import <i>Existing Maven Projects</i>, |
| under the <i>Maven</i> project category.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-003.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Import existing Maven project"> |
| <p>Clicking <i>Next</i> will bring you to another screen where you can choose the location |
| of Jena source code. Point it to the folder where you checked out the Jena source code |
| in the previous section of this tutorial.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-004.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Choosing source code location"> |
| <p>Click <i>Finish</i> and Eclipse will start importing your project. This may take |
| a few minutes, depending on your computer resources. You can keep an eye at the <i>Progress</i> |
| tab, in the bottom panel, to see what is the status of the import process.</p> |
| <p>Once the project has been imported into your workspace, you should see something similar to the |
| following screenshot.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-005.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Jena in Eclipse"> |
| <!-- this can be removed when we fix shading guava --> |
| <p>After the import process is complete, Eclipse will start building the project |
| automatically if you have it configured with the default settings, or you may have to |
| click on <i>Project</i> / <i>Build All</i>.</p> |
| <p>Eclipse will display a red icon on the project folders with build problems. We will see now how |
| to fix these build problems, so Eclipse can successfully build and run the project.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-006.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Eclipse build problems"> |
| <p>The build problems are related to a known issue due to how the project shades Google Guava classes.</p> |
| <p>The workaround is to make sure the <i>jena-shaded-guava</i> Maven module remains closed |
| in Eclipse. You can simply right click on the project, and choose Close. Its icon should |
| change, indicating it has been closed.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-007.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Close jena-shaded-maven module"> |
| <p>After doing that, it is good to trigger a <i>Clean</i> on all projects, so that |
| Eclipse can clean and re-build everything.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-008.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Clean all Eclipse projects"> |
| <p>You may also need to update the Maven project settings, so that Eclipse |
| is aware that the project is closed and it will use a local artifact, rather than the |
| module in the workspace.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-009.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Update Maven projects settings"> |
| <p>If you followed all steps, and there is nothing else running in your Eclipse |
| (check the Progress tab) then your Jena project should have been built with success.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-010.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Jena built in Eclipse"> |
| <p>If you would like to test Fuseki now, for example, you can expand the <i>jena-fuseki-core</i> |
| Maven module, navigate to the <i>org.apache.jena.fuseki.cmd</i> package, and run |
| <i>FusekiCmd</i> as a Java Application.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-011.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Run Fuseki in Eclipse"> |
| <p>That should initialize Fuseki, and have it listening on <a href="http://localhost:3030">http://localhost:3030</a>.</p> |
| <img src="figures/using_jena_with_eclipse-012.png" class="img-responsive" alt="Fuseki running in Eclipse"> |
| <p>Now you should also be able to debug Jena, modify the source code and build the |
| project again, or import or create other projects into your workspace, and use them |
| with the latest version of Jena.</p> |
