Project status

I change this project constantly improving and adding new scripts, click here to follow up.

The Problem

I worked in a company where losing everything on my PC was a routine, my workplace, libraries, config files, environment variables, etc. And I had to recreate everything from scratch, it was tedious and time-consuming.

About

These project was created to help developers start a "developer folder" on their machines.
There are some scripts to download jdks (oracle, azul, etc), tools like Apache Ant, Apache Maven, etc., and servers like Tomcat, Glassfish, etc. and so on. Not only create, but download, configure and set on environment variables. Similar to SDkMAN, although more simpler.

This section show how to use

Concepts

To use these scripts you have to understand some concepts. The scripts are following these structure:

set-software-version\[-vendor][-codenome].[sh|bat]

Examples:

Install and/or config Oracle Java version 21, hotspot on Linux:

. set-java-21-oracle-hotspot.sh

Install and/or config Jetbrains Java version 21, jbrdcevm on Windows:

set-java-17-jetbrains-jbrdcevm.bat

Install and/or config Tomcat 9 on Linux:

set-tomcat-9.0.sh

Install and/or config Jetty 12 on Windows:

set-jetty-12.0.bat

You can realize that in the Tomcat and Jetty scripts, there is no vendor; it is omitted because there is only one vendor for both Apache and Eclipse respectively.

To Run

To run any script on linux:

source set-software-version\[-vendor][-codenome].sh

or

. set-software-version\[-vendor][-codenome].sh

And windows:

set-software-version\[-vendor][-codenome].bat

What happening?

When you execute the script regardless the SO, what the script do:

• Download the software and put the download on '$DEVELOPMENT_HOME$\downloads' folder;
• Extract it on its directory;
• Set the terminal/prompt command environment vars;
• Check the software;

Check the example, the ant script:
