Make sure you get a clean Maven build by running "mvn clean install" in the "trunk/" directory. + +2. In the "web/dna-web-jcr-rest-client/" directory run "mvn assembly:assembly" (which generates a dependencies jar) + +3. Copy these 2 files from "web/dna-web-jcr-rest-client/target/" to "tools/org.jboss.dna.eclipse.jcr.rest.client" project: + - dna-web-jcr-rest-client-[release]-jar-with-dependencies.jar + - dna-web-jcr-rest-client-[release]-sources.jar + +4. Update the feature version number by editing "feature.xml" in the "tools/org.jboss.dna.eclipse.jcr.rest.client.feature" project. + +5. Open "site.xml" in the tools/org.jboss.dna.eclipse.jcr.rest.client.updatesite" project. If the feature on the "Site Map" tab + is not right, delete the existing one and then click "Add Feature" to add the correct version of the feature plugin. + +6. Once the feature is added click "Build All." This will create 2 folders (features, plugins) and 2 files (artifacts.xml, content.xml). + +7. At the top of both the artifacts.xml and content.xml, change the name to "JBoss DNA JCR REST Eclipse Client." + +8. Create a zip archive containing the following: features/, plugins/, site.xml, artifacts.xml, & contents.xml. + +***** Additional Information ***** + +- To install the archive download and install a new copy of Eclipse. Use Help -> Software Updates to add the local archive site. + +- In order to test you need a DNA REST server. Copy the "resources.war" file found in the "targets/" directory of the + "web/dna-web-jcr-rest-war" project. For JBoss copy it into the "[JBOSS-INSTALL-DIR]/server/[CONFIG-NAME]/deploy/" directory. Then + in Eclipse using the DNA Servers View create a new server with the appropriate URL (for example: http://localhost:8080). + The user is "dnauser" and the passowrd is "password". \ No newline at end of file Property changes on: trunk/tools/org.jboss.dna.eclipse.jcr.rest.client.updatesite/readme.txt ___________________________________________________________________ Name: svn:mime-type + text/plain
