If you have an eclipse project which is based on one of your other projects, you most likely have similar contents in the target definition files. When you are changing dependencies here, you often have to change them in both files.
Overtarget lets you define your dependencies in textual .tmodel file. Every change is directly compiled into a standard .target file. Similar to inheritance of classes you can create another .tmodel file for some other project and derive from the previous one. This way you only have to specify the changes such as added, changed or removed dependencies. All other dependencies are inherited and compiled into the local .target file.
Overtarget is based on Java / Eclipse and provides an installable feature with plug-ins for your personal eclipse IDE. The following infrastructure is required:
- Java Development Kit (JDK) 11
- Eclipse Oxygen or newer
- Including Checkstyle
- Including Spotbugs
- Including M2E
- Maven 3
- Windows 7 or Linux Computer
If you just want to use Overtarget feel free to download it from the Releases section here on GitHub. A manual is provided as PDF.
- Open your Eclipse and switch to the Git Perspective.
- Clone this repository.
- Import all projects and working-sets via the ProjectSet file in de.dlr.sc.overtarget/projectSet
- Execute the Overtarget build from de.dlr.sc.overtarget/launchers
- Inspect the build artifacts for the p2 repository in de.dlr.sc.overtarget.p2updatesite/target
Tarvis CI is set-up to start a build job for every branch and every new commit to the repository. It executes all relevant tests such as jUnit, SWTBot, Checkstyle, SpotBugs, etc. Making a successful pull-request into development requires all tests to pass.
Starting a Travis CI job on development or integration deploys all relevant artifacts.
For creating a new release, create a tag starting with Release_ on the master branch. All artifacts are automatically deployed.
Overtarget provides the following features:
- Xtext based textual editor in eclipse for .tmodel files.
- Xtend based compilation of .tmodel files to .tagret files.
Deployments are done using GitHub Releases as well as sourceforge:
