7 7  == Step 1: Installing Maven ==

9 -Downloading and installing the latest version of [[Maven>>url:https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi||shape="rect"]] is the first step to start using this tool via one of the following approaches.
3 +Downloading and installing the latest version of [[Maven>>http://maven.apache.org/download]] is the first step to start using this tool.
10 10  
11 -(a) You can use MacPorts ([[https:~~/~~/www.macports.org>>url:https://www.macports.org||shape="rect"]]) to install:
5 +**NOTE**: It is very helpful if you understand some Maven concepts before continue with this tutorial. See [[General Maven Documentation]] for more information.

13 -{{code title="MacPorts usage" theme="Emacs" language="bash"}}
14 -$ sudo port install maven3
15 -{{/code}}
16 -
17 -(b) Or similarly via Homebrew ([[http:~~/~~/brew.sh>>url:http://brew.sh||shape="rect"]]):
18 -
19 -{{code title="Homebrew usage" theme="Emacs" language="bash"}}
20 -$ brew install maven
21 -{{/code}}
22 -
23 -(c) Or manually by downloading the binary tarball, copying it to /usr/local/, unpacking it, soft linking it and adding the path to your bash_profile:
24 -
25 -{{code title="Manual install" theme="Emacs" language="bash"}}
26 -$ sudo su
27 -$ cd /usr/local/
28 -$ curl -O http://mirror.tcpdiag.net/apache/maven/maven-3/3.3.3/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.3-bin.tar.gz
29 -$ tar -xzf apache-maven-3.3.3-bin.tar.gz
30 -$ ln -s apache-maven-3.3.3 apache-maven
31 -$ exit
32 -$ cd ~/
33 -$ vi .bash_profile
34 -{{/code}}
35 -
36 -Then in your bash profile, ensure your path and java home are updated:
37 -
38 -{{code title="~~/.bash_profile" theme="Emacs" linenumbers="true" language="text"}}
39 -...
40 -export PATH=/usr/local/apache-maven/bin:$PATH
41 -export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
42 -...

53 -**NOTE 2**: You might also like to install bash completion utilities:

58 58  == Step 2: Configuring your Maven Settings ==
59 59  
60 -Advanced users can skip this step, but it's highly recommended.
9 +Before start using Maven, you have to configure it in order to use the plug-ins provided by WOProject. General Maven configuration is made in a settings.xml file. This file can be found at .m2 folder in the user home (,,/.m2 on Unix systems and C:ocuments and Settingsserm2 on Windows). If this file doesn't exist yet, just create it.,,
61 61  
62 -[[doc:Quick Start Maven Settings Configuration Guide]]
11 +You have to define the WOProject plug-in group and the repositories to download the plug-ins. The following snippet shows how to make this configuration:

70 70  == Step 3: Installing WebObjects Libraries ==
71 71  
72 72  Maven takes control of all your project's dependencies. To develop WebObjects applications, Maven has to reference the WebObjects jars. You have to install the WebObjects libraries into your local repository to accomplish this:
73 73  
74 74  {{noformat}}
75 -mvn wobootstrap:install -DwebObjectsLibFolder=/Library/WebObjects/lib -DwebObjectsVersion=5.4.3
76 76  
66 +mvn wobootstrap:install
67 +
77 77  {{/noformat}}
78 78  
79 -**NOTE**: WebObjects must be installed.
70 +**NOTE**: WebObjects must be installed. See the [[maven-wobootstrap-plugin]] documentation for more information. See [[Maven Introduction to Repositories>>http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html]] if you want more information about Maven repositories.
80 80  
81 -**See** the [[doc:maven-wobootstrap-plugin]] documentation for more information and options for specifying a specific version.
72 +== Step 4: Creating a WebObjects Project ==
82 82  
83 -**See** [[Maven Introduction to Repositories>>url:http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html||shape="rect"]] if you want more information about Maven repositories.
74 +Archetypes are the fast way to create a new project using Maven. WOProject provides one archetype to create WebObjects Application. Execute the following command to generate a basic WebObjects project:
84 84  
85 -{{warning title="Installing the right jars!"}}
86 -Do **not** link to or install the WebObjects jars located inside {{code language="none"}}/System/Library/Frameworks{{/code}} or {{code language="none"}}/Library/Frameworks{{/code}}. If you're installing an older version of WebObjects you must obtain the jars that the WebObjects installer had previously installed into {{code language="none"}}/Library/WebObjects/lib{{/code}}. For example, the jar {{code language="none"}}/Library/WebObjects/lib/JavaWebObjects.jar{{/code}} has the complete set of resources and files included for the dependency JavaWebObjects whereas {{code language="none"}}/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaWebObjects.framework/Resources/Java/javawebobjects.jar{{/code}} does not.
87 -{{/warning}}
88 -
89 -== Step 4: Creating a WebObjects or Wonder Project ==
90 -
91 -Archetypes are the fast way to create a new project using Maven and WOProject provides various archetypes of its own to get you started with WebObjects, or better, Wonder-based applications. Execute the following command to generate a basic Wonder application project:
92 -
93 93  {{noformat}}
94 -mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeArtifactId=erxapplication-archetype \
95 - -DarchetypeGroupId=org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2 \
96 - -DarchetypeVersion=2.1
97 97  
78 +mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeArtifactId=woapplication-archetype \
79 + -DarchetypeGroupId=org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2 \
80 + -DarchetypeVersion=2.0.14 \
81 + -DarchetypeRepository=http://webobjects.mdimension.com/maven2/releases
82 +

106 -**NOTE:** You can see the list of available archetypes in the following location: [[http:~~/~~/wo-repository.moleque.com.br/nexus/content/groups/public/org/objectstyle/woproject/maven2/>>url:http://wo-repository.moleque.com.br/nexus/content/groups/public/org/objectstyle/woproject/maven2/||shape="rect"]].
107 -
108 108  == Step 5: Importing the Project into Eclipse ==
109 109  
110 110  The new project is ready to be imported into Eclipse workspace. Use the Eclipse's import wizard (File > Import...) and choose the option "Existing Projects into Workspace". Select the root directory of your new project and finish the import wizard.
111 111  
112 112  {{note title="Warning"}}
94 +
113 113  As Maven takes care of the dependency management, you must use a mechanism to add the jars to your Eclipse build path. There are 3 options:
96 +# Use the mvn eclipse:eclipse goal to update your .classpath file.
97 +# Use the m2eclipse plug-in for Eclipse.
98 +# Use the q4e plug-in for Eclipse.
114 114  
115 -1. Use the [[mvn eclipse:eclipse>>url:http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/||shape="rect"]] goal to update your .classpath file.
116 -1. Use the [[m2eclipse>>url:http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/||shape="rect"]] plug-in for Eclipse.

118 118  {{/note}}
119 119  
120 120  After adding the project dependencies to your Eclipse build path, WOLips can build the project and you will be able to start developing and running the application.
