Using the scripts

Note: These scripts are for developers who want/need to work on the CAE. If you just want to use the CAE, have a look at the CAE-DockerImage repository. It automatically deploys a fully functional and configured instance of the CAE for you in a Docker container.

1. Start with sh install.sh. This script tries to install and setup supervisor and clones all necessary repositories. Additionally you need a running ROLE server. Check out the releases or build the ROLE SDK yourself.
2. Follow the install instrutions in the corresponding repositories to build the las2peer services and ROLE widgets. The links to the repositories can be found above. Please have a look at the README-files and the wiki's of the repositories.
3. If everything was build and configured correctly just run sh setup.sh. The script just copies the builds of the repositories cloned in step 1 into a separate folder. The folder is called myCAE and has the following structure:

• etc property files of the services
• lib the libraries for the cae backend services
• service the cae backend services
• frontend
  • cae the cae widgets
  • syncmeta the syncmeta widgets
  • wireframe the wireframing editor widget

Check the folder structure and make sure eveything is there and your urls are set correctly.

4. Run sh start to open the supervisor frontend at http://localhost:9001 in your standard browser. From here you can manually start the services you want to work with. The following programs should be available in the supervisor frontend:

• role start the role service at http://127.0.0.1:8073.
• services the las2peer network available at http://localhost:8080/.
• services_debug the las2peer network available at http://localhost:8080/ in debug mode.
• yjs the y-websockets-server at port 1234.
• widgets the webserver to serve the widgets at http://127.0.0.1:8001.The widgets-program requires the http-server module. You can get it by just running npm install -g http-server.

Note Start either services or services_debug, because they use the same port(See step 4 from above). They are both exactly the same with just one difference that you can attach the java remote debugger to debug the las2peer-services with Eclipse or IntelliJ.
