Apache Directory Studio (TM)
The Eclipse-based LDAP browser and directory client.
Apache Directory Studio is a complete directory tooling platform intended to be used with any LDAP server however it is particularly designed for use with ApacheDS. It is an Eclipse RCP application, composed of several Eclipse (OSGi) plugins, that can be easily upgraded with additional ones. These plugins can even run within Eclipse itself.
Build from command line
Prerequisites
- JDK 8 or newer
- Maven 3 or newer
- Sufficient heap space for Maven:
export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m"
- FIXME: Windows users have to replace the repository location
file://${basedir}/target/repository
ineclipse-trgt-platform/template/org.apache.directory.studio.eclipse-trgt-platform.template
with the actual path, e.g.file:///C:/Development/studio/eclipse-trgt-platform/target/repository
Build
You can use either of those two methods to build the project :
Do it manually
Build the 'Eclipse Target Platform' and generate MANIFEST.MF files first
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install
Build the main eclipse artifacts using Tycho
mvn clean install
Use the script (which runs the two previous commands)
On Linux / Mac OS X :
$ ./build.sh
or on Windows :
> build.bat
Tests
-
Unit tests included in src/test/java of each plugin are executed automatically and run in 'test' phase
-
Core integration tests in tests/test.integration.core are executed automatically and run in 'integration-test' phase
-
SWTBot based UI integration tests in tests/test.integration.ui are disabled by default. They can be enabled with
-Denable-ui-tests
. A failing test generates a screenshot. To not block the developer computer they can run within a virtual framebuffer:export DISPLAY=:99 Xvfb :99 -screen 0 1024x768x16 &
Build issues
Tycho doesn't handle snapshot dependencies well. The first time a snapshot dependency is used within the build it is cached in ~/.m2/repository/p2
. Afterwards any change in the dependency (e.g. ApacheDS or LDAP API) is not considered unless it is deleted from the cache.
To delete all Apache Directory related snapshots run:
rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/p2/osgi/bundle/org.apache.directory.*
Setup Eclipse workspace
Recommended IDE is 'Eclipse (Luna) for RCP Developers': https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-rcp-and-rap-developers/lunasr2
-
Import 'Eclipse Target Platorm' project first
- File -> Import... -> Maven -> Existing Maven Projects
- Choose 'studio/eclipse-trgt-platform' as root directory
- Only this single project is selected
- Finish
-
Initialize target platform
- Open the
eclipse-trgt-platform.target
file with the 'Target Editor' - In the top right corner click 'Set as Target Platform'
- Open the
-
Import the main plugins
- File -> Import... -> Maven -> Existing Maven Projects
- Chosse 'studio' as root directory
- All the plugins are selected
- Finish
During import some Maven plugin connectors need to be installed, accept the installation and restart.
Run
From command line
The build produces binaries for all platforms. Archived versions can be found in product/target/products/
, unpacked versions can be found below product/target/products/org.apache.directory.studio.product
Within Eclipse
- Open the product configuration 'org.apache.directory.studio.product' with the Product Configuration Editor
- Click the link 'Launch an Eclipse application'
Release
The release section needs to be updated after git migration!
Licenses
The root directory contains LICENSE and NOTICE files for the source distribution. The product directory contains LICENSE and NOTICE files for the binary distributions, including licenses for bundled dependencies.
Release artifacts
We release the following artifacts:
- Source zip (the main artifact we vote on)
- Maven artifacts
- poms
- plugins: pom, jar, javadoc, src
- features: pom, jar, src
- helps: pom, jar, src
- P2 repositories
- the main features (LDAP Browser, Schema Editor, ApacheDS)
- dependencies
- Product archives and installers for
- Linux GTK 32bit tar.gz
- Linux GTK 64bit tar.gz
- Mac OS X 64bit dmg
- Windows 32bit exe installer and zip
- Windows 64bit exe installer and zip
- Userguides
Preparation
Update the copyright year, see https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1807191&view=rev for the list of files that need to be changed.
Test the release build: rat check, javadoc and source jar generation, GPG signing, userguide generation
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install
mvn -Papache-release,windows,macos -Duserguides clean install
Run UI tests (if possible on all platforms)
mvn clean install -Denable-ui-tests
Release build steps
As Tycho doesn't support the maven-release-plugin the release process is as follows:
Define release version
We use a release number scheme that suites for both, Maven and Eclipse.
<MAJOR>.<MINOR>.<PATCH>.v<YYYYMMDD>[-M<X>|RC<X>]
Example for milestone version: 2.0.0.v20150529-M9
. Example for GA version: 2.0.1.v20150529
.
Define a variable for later use:
export VERSION=2.0.0.v20150529-M9
Also create an empty directory used during the release process and store it in a variable:
export RELEASE_DIR=$(pwd)
Create and checkout branch
cd $RELEASE_DIR
svn copy https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/studio/trunk https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/studio/branches/$VERSION -m "Prepare release $VERSION"
svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/studio/branches/$VERSION branch-$VERSION
cd branch-$VERSION
Remove OpenLDAP feature
As long as the org.apache.directory.studio.openldap.feature
is not ready for release it needs to be removed from product/org.apache.directory.studio.product
.
Set the version and commit
find . -name pom-first.xml | xargs sed -i 's/2.0.0-SNAPSHOT/'$VERSION'/'
find . -name pom-first.xml | xargs sed -i 's/2.0.0.qualifier/'$VERSION'/'
sed -i 's/2.0.0-SNAPSHOT/'$VERSION'/' pom.xml
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install
svn revert pom.xml
mvn org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-versions-plugin:0.24.0:set-version -DnewVersion=$VERSION
svn commit -m "Set version number for release $VERSION"
Create and checkout tag
cd $RELEASE_DIR
svn copy https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/studio/branches/$VERSION https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/studio/tags/$VERSION -m "Tag release $VERSION"
svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/studio/tags/$VERSION tag-$VERSION
cd tag-$VERSION
Build the release and deploy to staging Nexus repository
mvn -f pom-first.xml clean install
mvn -Papache-release,windows,macos -Duserguides -DretryFailedDeploymentCount=3 clean deploy
Close the staging Nexus repository
See https://repository.apache.org/#stagingRepositories.
Package and sign distribution packages
There is a script that collects and signs all update sites and distribution packages.
For non-interactive signing with GPG agent define env variable:
export RELEASE_KEY=28686142
Run the dist script:
cd dist
./dist.sh
Afterwards all distribution packages are located in target
.
Upload the artifacts to SVN
cd target/$VERSION
svn mkdir https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/studio/$VERSION -m "Create dev area for release $VERSION"
svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/studio/$VERSION .
svn add *
svn commit -m "Add release $VERSION"
Call the vote
Start the vote.
Publish
After successful vote publish the artifacts.
Release artifacts in Nexus.
Move distribution packages from dev
area to release
:
svn mv https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/studio/$VERSION https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/directory/studio/$VERSION -m "Release $VERSION"
Wait 24h for mirror rsync.
Update site
The update site https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/site/trunk/content/studio/update needs to be updated.
In the following files
compositeArtifacts--xml.html
compositeContent--xml.html
product/compositeArtifacts--xml.html
product/compositeContent--xml.html
change the location path to the new release and also update the p2.timestamp
to the current timestamp milliseconds (hint: date +%s000
)
