Convert the admin and editor UI from Bootstrap 3 to Bootstrap 5.3 Restores the bootstrap form theme via struts2-bootstrap-plugin 6.1.0, which is Jakarta-native and emits Bootstrap 5 markup, and converts the JSPs and basic themes accordingly: class renames, data-bs-* attributes, navbar restructure, and bootstrap-icons in place of glyphicons. A tooltip.ftl template override emits data-bs-toggle so field help renders as opt-in Bootstrap tooltips initialised in roller.js. WebJar assets are served straight from META-INF/resources by the servlet container, so the webjars servlet is removed. The profile page shows the OIDC issuer and subject as separate read-only fields instead of the raw federated identity string.

Installing Roller

If you want to run Roller in production, then you should down load the latest official release and install it by following the Installation Guide, which you can find at the documentation link: https://github.com/apache/roller/tree/master/docs.

Quick start: Running via Maven

You probably should not run Roller in production using this technique, but it‘s a relatively easy way to try Roller for yourself. Assuming you’ve got a UNIX shell, Java, Maven and Git:

Get the code:

$ git clone https://github.com/apache/roller.git

Compile and build Roller:

$ cd roller
$ mvn -DskipTests=true install

Run Roller in Jetty with an embedded Derby database (for testing only):

$ mvn jetty:run

Once Jetty is up and running browse to http://localhost:8080/roller to try to Roller.

Quick start: running via Docker

Another way to try Roller is to use Docker. This is actually easier than running via Maven because you do not need Maven or Java. If you‘ve got Docker, here’s how you can run Roller for demo purposes.

Get the code:

$ git clone https://github.com/apache/roller.git

Run Docker Compose to build and launch Roller along with a PostgreSQL database:

$ cd roller
$ docker-compose up

It will take a while to build and start the Docker image. Once it's done browse to http://localhost:8080/roller to try Roller.
