ApacheGUI Packages are hosted on sourceforge. They can be accessed from the following link https://sourceforge.net/projects/apachegui/
ApacheGUI is a Maven enabled web project. The project is portable and can be imported to any Java IDE as a Maven project.
The IX based runtime environment that is used for development is located under environments/IX/ApacheGUI.
The Windows based runtime environment that is used for development is located under environments/Windows64/ApacheGUI
ApacheGUI is dependant on the following project(s). It is not required to download these projects however a large amount of source code uses classes and methods in these projects. The code from these projects are included as Maven dependencies.
- ApacheConfParser (https://github.com/jrossi227/ApacheConfParser). This library is used to parse the Apache Server configuration.
- ApacheGUIJdbc (https://github.com/jrossi227/ApacheGUIJdbc). This library is used to communicate with the internal SQLite database that ApacheGUI uses.
Although Windows is fully supported, it is recommended to use a Linux or Mac OSX distribution when developing ApacheGUI. This is because Apache and Tomcat run more efficiently on IX based distributions.
- Node js v0.10.25+
- Maven 3+
- Java 1.6+
- Navigate to the root directory in the source project (Where pom.xml is located).
- Open pom.xml and set the environment property to IX. The apachegui.home property uses the environment property to determine the location of ApacheGUI.
- Run the Maven builds below.
mvn clean package -P prod
minifies required javascript and builds a new war under the target directory.mvn clean package -P dev
copies required javascript without minification and builds a new war under the target directory. This task is meant to speed up war builds for development.mvn clean install -P prod
minifies required javascript and builds a new war under the target directory. The war is then moved from the target directory to [apachegui.home]/tomcat/webapps. This will re-deploy the application.mvn clean install -P dev
copies required javascript without minification and builds a new war under the target directory. The war is then moved from the target directory to [apachegui.home]/tomcat/webapps. This will re-deploy the application. This task is meant to speed up war builds for development.mvn antrun:run -P package
stops ApacheGUI and builds a new .tar.gz archive. The .tar.gz archive is put into the package.dir directory that is specified in the pom.xml properties.
- Navigate to the root directory in the source project (Where pom.xml is located).
- Open pom.xml and set the environment property in pom.xml to Windows64. The apachegui.home property uses the environment property to determine the location of ApacheGUI.
