How to build connector sources with maven ?

Q&A
1

Hello,

Excuse my newbiness with that tools, but I've just cloned a Connector from your github alibaba cavern and tried to build it with Maven as i was looking for  a little bit of fun before I go home.

It seems i'm missing a fragment in my maven settings. May it be the repository fragment ?

What I get when i mvn install:install is

org.apache.maven.reactor.MavenExecutionException: Cannot find parent: org.bonitasoft.connectors:bonita-connectors for project: null:bonita-connector-ldap:pom:null for project null:bonita-connector-ldap:pom:null

As you can see I was trying to use the ldap connector, but if you could give a kickstart on how to get an efficient usage of the sources whatever the final purpose is I think it should be usefull, at least for me.

Thank you!

Antoine

Hi,

you can take a lot to this documentation page http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/building-bonita-bpm-source-files
You will notice that you need to build bonita-connectors first.

You can also have a look a the Build Script for Bonita BPM:
http://community.bonitasoft.com/projects/build-script-bonita-bpm

Sources are available on Bonitasoft's Community Github:
https://github.com/bonitasoft-community

Depending of the connector you want to build, you will have to build different versions of Bonita-connectors. When you build a dependency, maven adds it to its local repository, and you don't have to rebuild it again.
