Usage - Use Soluvas's Repository

In Maven project

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>soluvas-public-snapshots</id>
        <url>http://nexus.bippo.co.id/nexus/content/repositories/soluvas-public-snapshots/</url>
        <releases>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
        </releases>
        <snapshots>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
        </snapshots>
    </repository>
</repositories>

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.alicebot.ab</groupId>
        <artifactId>ab</artifactId>
        <version>4.0.4-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

In Gradle project

repositories {
    maven {
        url 'http://nexus.bippo.co.id/nexus/content/repositories/soluvas-public-snapshots/'
    }
}

dependencies {

    compile 'org.alicebot.ab:ab:4.0.4-SNAPSHOT'

}

Usage - Build Yourself

  1. Build using Maven to your local Maven repository:

     mvn -DskipTests install
    
  2. Use in your Maven project:

     <dependencies>
         <dependency>
             <groupId>org.alicebot.ab</groupId>
             <artifactId>ab</artifactId>
             <version>4.0.4-SNAPSHOT</version>
         </dependency>
     </dependencies>
    

    or Gradle project:

     dependencies {
    
         compile 'org.alicebot.ab:ab:4.0.4-SNAPSHOT'
    
     }
    

TODO

  1. Build entirely with Maven, without embedded JARs in project sources [done]
  2. Replace System.out.println with SLF4J logging [done]
  3. Replace ex.printStackTrace(); with detailed Exception [partial]
  4. Replace commons-logging dependency with SLF4J 1.6/1.7 [done]
  5. -Allow loading bot data files from classpath- (too complex, and probably non-performant in Android anyway, alternative: extract the bot ZIP file to @getCacheDir()@)
  6. Replace json dependency with jackson 2.2
  7. Run well with Android Gingerbread (API 9)
