#Setup environment

1. copy src/main/resources/configuration.properties.sample to src/main/resources/configuration.properties
2. copy src/main/resources/fenix-framework.properties.sample to src/main/resources/fenix-framework.properties
3. change above files accordingly
4. export JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=384m"
5. export MAVEN_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS"

#Compiling & Run Fenix

##compile and exploded war (faster cycle) able to run with jetty & tomcat

mvn clean prepare-package war:exploded

creates target/fenix-1.0-SNAPSHOT/

• running with jetty (faces don't work with jetty ATM, use tomcat)
  • mvn jetty:start
• running with tomcat (standalone)
  • create symlink in <tomcat>/webapps linking to target/fenix-1.0-SNAPSHOT/
• running with tomcat (maven)
  • export MAVEN_OPTS="$MAVEN_OPTS -Dorg.apache.jasper.compiler.Parser.STRICT_QUOTE_ESCAPING=false"
  • mvn tomcat7:run

##compile and assemble a war file mvn clean package

creates target/fenix-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war and target/fenix-1.0-SNAPSHOT/

##create jar for fenix scripts (without access control) mvn clean test -Pjar

creates deploy/fenix-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

##compile and run with jetty mvn clean package jetty:start

jetty runs on (http://localhost:8080/fenix/)

####The port can be changed using

mvn -Djetty.port=XXXX jetty:start

##run SQLUpdateGenerator mvn clean test -PSQLUpdateGenerator creates or updates etc/database_operations/updates.sql

##running jetty with debugger export MAVEN_OPTS="$MAVEN_OPTS -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=4000,server=y,suspend=n" mvn clean package jetty:start

1. change suspend to y if debugging startup process is needed.
2. change address to prefered debug port 8000.

##fenix bootstrap and initialization with an empty database

https://fenix-ashes.ist.utl.pt/fenixWiki/FenixSetup

##Generate Fenix API Documentation

mvn test -PGenerateFenixAPIDocs

creates target/miredot/index.html

##Generate Fenix DML Zip

mvn test -PGenerateDMLZip

creates target/fenix_dmls.zip

It can be used to upload in Fenix Domain Browser

1. Change limit of open files to a higher level (man ulimit)
