Welcome to Turbine. For more information about Turbine, please look at the HTML documentation.
Here is a description of what each of the top level directories contains. Please consult the documentation in each of the lower level directories for information that is specific to their contents.
| Directory | Explanation |
|---|---|
| conf/ | This is where the sample configurations live. |
| src/ | This is where all of the source code to Turbine lives. |
| target/ | This is a temporary directory for building the project. |
| src/site/xdocs/ | This is where the documentation and database schemas live. All of the files in this directory are mirrored onto the live website. |
In order to get started with Turbine, you must build it first. Turbine uses Maven for its build environment. You can find installation information about Maven online at http://maven.apache.org/ .
Once Maven has been installed, just type ‘mvn package’. The default behavior is to compile, run the unit tests, and build the jar.
To allow a simulation of an integrated environment you could start dockerized tests (with tag docker) with the docker-testcontainer profile.
mvn clean test -Pdocker-testcontainer.
This will initiate a start of an mysql database and an cleanup after tests are completed. The currently used mapped ort is saved into the file conf/test/docker-managertorque.usersettings.properties
Find more about Docker-Testcontainer here. If you want to get one step further check out the Turbine-Archetype here. This allows you use an Turbine Maven archetype in a hosted or dockerized environment.
Some other useful goals:
mvn site - generate the site documention
test site
mvn site scm-publish:publish-scm -Dscmpublish.dryRun=true -Papache-release
Activating Maven profile apache-release is not required, und may require a signing process (you need a gpg key).
deploy site
Either check out the branch asf-ste and copy /replace files from target/site to the root, add and commit. This will trigger (thanks to the .asf.yaml configuration) an update to the distribution site.
Or run:
mvn clean site scm-publish:publish-scm -Papache-release
Deploys Turbine release site to the Apache web site (cft. to https://github.com/apache/turbine-site how to deploy main Turbine web site). CAVEAT: If you make a dry run or decide to rebuild a new site when publishing, delete the cache folder to avoid that no site might be deployt! By default this folder is user.home/turbine-sites/turbine, configured in Turbine parent property turbine.site.cache.

As of Turbine 2.3, you must also have the Torque plugin for Maven installed to build Turbine. Information on how to install the plugin is available at http://db.apache.org/torque/torque-5.0/documentation/modules/maven-plugin/index.html .
