| PLC4X Build Tools: PLC4X Site Skin |
| ======================== |
| |
| PLC4X Build Tools: PLC4X Site Skin is a sub-project of the Apache PLC4X project |
| and contains all the tools needed to generate the main projects website using |
| the maven site plugin. |
| |
| Environment |
| ----------- |
| |
| Currently the project is configured to require the following software: |
| |
| 1) Java 8 JDK: For running Maven in general as well as compiling the Java and Scala |
| modules `JAVA_HOME` configured to point to that. |
| |
| |
| Getting Started |
| --------------- |
| |
| Normally you wouldn't be required to build this module as the artifacts it produces |
| will be made available via one of the maven repositories. However if you want to improve |
| or fix the existing tools, you will have to build your version locally. |
| |
| You must have Java 8 installed on your system and connectivity to Maven Central |
| (for downloading external third party dependencies). Maven will be automatically |
| downloaded and installed by the maven wrapper `mvnw`. |
| |
| Build PLC4X Java jars and install them in your local maven repository |
| |
| $ mvn install |
| |
| This should make the build-tools available to the main projects build. |
| In order to use your locally built version of the build-tools you should |
| update the property: `plc4x-code-generation.version` in the PLC4X main pom.xml. |
