If you prefer to use an IDE then you can auto-generate the IDE's project files using maven plugins. e.g.
IntelliJ

mvn eclipse:eclipse idea:idea |
Eclipse
There are several ways to import the projects into Eclipse.
m2e
At this point, usage of the m2e plugins to import Camel into Eclipse is untested and unsupported. Patches, notes, etc... to help get this supported would be more than welcome.
maven-eclipse-plugin
The maven-eclipse-plugin can be used to generate the .classpath/.project/.settings file that Eclipse need. To do this, run:or
Code Block |
---|
mvn idea:idea
|
...
process-test-sources eclipse:eclipse
|
or
Code Block |
---|
mvn -Psetup.eclipse -Declipse.workspace.dir=/path/to/your/workspace |
You can also find some helpful notes on usage here.
Importing into Eclipse
...
The latter is recommended as it would completely setup the workspace for you as well as provide options to wire in other projects also found in your workspace.
After running the above command, from within Eclipse, do "File -> Import -> Existing Projects into Workspace", select the root camel checkout location and Eclipse should find all the projects.
Adding Camel Eclipse templates to your workspace
The above mentioned setup.eclipse profile does a few additional things to your workspace:
- Adds the Camel code templates (see here)
- Sets the M2_REPO variable in the workspace that points to your local Maven repository (i.e.,
~/.m2/repository
on Unix andc:\Documents and Settings\<user>\.m2\repository
on Windows) which allows the jars to be resolved.
Hint: specify the workspace location in your .m2/settings.xml
You can also get Maven to do this for you:can add a profile to your .m2/settings.xml to specify your eclipse workspace location so you can avoid having to type that each time you need to update the projects.
