This document provides:
- A set of instructions for new developers to get their Eclipse workspace up-and-running.
1 - Getting Eclipse
Several of the developers are using Eclipse Mars with Web Developer Tools. You can find them here:
- http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-developers/mars2
- https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/eclipse-web-developer-tools-0 (look for the install button to drag-and-drop to your workspace).
2 - Load Juneau projects into your workspace
- Start up your Eclipse workspace.
- Open up Java Perspective:
Window->Perspective->Open Perspective->Java
- Open up Git Repositories view:
Window->Show View->Other->Git->Git Repositories
- In the view, click the "Clone a Git Repository and add the clone to this view":
- Enter the information for the Juneau Git Repository. Then click next.
- In the Branch Selection page, select only the master branch. Then click next.
- In the Local Destination page, select a location where your local Git repository will reside.
Note that this is NOT the same location as your workspace.
Make sure to select the checkbox for importing all the projects into your workspace.
Then click finish.
- After a couple of minutes, you should see the following projects loaded into your workspace:
3 - Overview of projects
The juneau-root
project contains the top-level contents of the Git repository. It contains all the other sub-projects.
- The contents of the
README.md
file show up on the GitHub mirror page. - The
pom.xml
file builds the entire project.
The juneau-core
project contains all the serializers and parsers:
- This project contains the vast majority of the code base.
- The Javadoc
overview.html
document is located insrc/test/java
. - Dependencies:
- Apache Jena 2.7+ (optional) - Used for the RDF serializers and parsers.
The juneau-server
project contains the REST Server API:
- Dependencies:
- Servlet 2.0+ (required)
- JAX-RS (optional) - Used for JAX-RS providers in the org.apache.juneau.server.jaxrs package.
The juneau-client
project contains the REST Client API:
- Dependencies:
- Apache HttpClient 4.5+ (required)
The juneau-microservice
project contains the Microservice API:
- The Dockerfile file is used for creating a docker container for the microservice.
- Dependencies:
- Eclipse Jetty 8.1+ (required)
- Apache Jena 2.7+ (optional) - Needed if you want to use RDF support.
- Apache HttpClient 4.5+ (optional) - Needed if you want to use the client API.
- Apache Commons FileUpload 1.3.1+ (optional) - Needed if you want to upload multipart form posts.
The juneau-microservice-template
project is a template project that is meant for developers to import into their own workspace as a starting point for creating their own microservice.
The juneau-samples
project is a microservice project that provides various examples for defining REST resources and custom serializers and parsers.
- The
juneau-samples.launch
file is used to run the samples microservice from your Eclipse workspace.
It starts up a REST microservice on port 10000 with various samples: - The
war/web.xml
file is not used, but provides an example for deploying the microservice as a war file. - The
samples.cfg
file is the external configuration file for the microservice. When built, a microservice consists of two files: an executable jar and this config file.
The juneau-server-test
project contains integration testcases for the REST Server and Client APIs:
- The
src/main/java
folder contains a microservice that starts up on port 10001 with various test resources. - The
src/test/java
folder contains the JUnit testcases that make REST calls against the microservice.
The juneau-distrib
project creates zips that contain the built libraries and source code for a release.
4 - Using Maven to build projects
The project can be built using maven from a command line by running the following in the workspace root:
mvn clean package
5 - JUnit Tests
JUnit tests are located in the following locations:
juneau-core/src/test/java
juneau-samples/src/test/java
juneau-server-test/src/test/java
juneau-core
contains strict JUnit tests. They can be run as-is.
juneau-samples
contains JUnits that make REST calls against the sample microservice running on port 10000.
juneau-server-test
contains JUnits that make REST calls against the test microservice running on port 10001.
