This library uses Maven 3 for project management, building, etc. It outputs Maven artifacts.

Building

Check out the source:

git clone https://github.com/RusticiSoftware/TinCanJava.git
cd TinCanJava

With the repo cloned copy the src/test/resources/lrs.properties.template file to src/test/resources/lrs.properties and adjust the values to point to a valid LRS. Then build the project using:

mvn install

This will download dependencies (that are not already locally available) and build and test the artifact. The result will be in target/tincan-0.2.5-SNAPSHOT.jar. To build a specific version of the library you will need to checkout to the tag for that version first, such as:

git checkout tincan-0.2.4

And then do mvn install, which will provide target/tincan-0.2.4.jar.

Releasing

See http://maven.apache.org/maven-release/maven-release-plugin/index.html.

mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true
mvn release:clean
mvn release:prepare
mvn release:perform

At some point in the future we plan to make the maven artifacts available via some publicly available repository.
