Jakarta EE Tutorial

 build

This repository contains the source files that are used to build the Jakarta Enterprise Edition (Jakarta EE) Tutorial. The source files are authored in AsciiDoc. AsciiDoc is similar to markdown but is particularly suited for user documentation.

Note that the Jakarta EE Tutorial code examples are located in a separate repository eclipse-ee4j/jakartaee-tutorial-examples.

Building the Jakarta EE Tutorial

The following directions explain how to do local builds of the tutorial. Note that any changes that are pushed to the master branch automatically trigger a build of the site files and tutorial sources. The results are automatically pushed to the gh-pages branch. You can view the published site here.

Pre-Requisites

  • Maven
  • JDK8+

Note that manually deploying the site requires password-less authentication. This is done by exporting your SSH public key into your GitHub account.

Build the Site Locally

The site is generated under target/staging. Open file:///PATH_TO_PROJECT_DIR/target/staging in a browser to view the output.

mvn generate-resources

Deploy the Site to Github Pages

If you want to manually push a build to the gh-pages branch, use:

mvn deploy -Ppublish-site

Never commit changes to the gh-pages branch directly.

Produce a Zip File for Download

To produce a zip file containing the generated HTML files, use:

mvn package

When making a release on GitHub, this zip file should be added to the release.
