This repository contains a version of the PCF Developer course with the following changes:

• Lab instructions have been ported to asciidoc (thanks Eitan)

• Presentation slides have been expanded from Dave’s originals and use the same template as our Spring and Gemfire courses

• It uses the common-build

• It is self-contained as far as possible

Using Common Build

Since it uses the common build, you must cd into the course-build directory and then the following ant targets are available:

• ant lab-docs - builds the lab instructions as HTML and PDF in build\lab-instructions\target\generated-docs

• ant handouts - builds the student handout (PDF copy of the presentation slides) in build\slides\target

• ant install-docs - creates lab instructions and the handout in build\target\pcf-developer-XXX.RELEASE (XXX is the release id)

• ant install-labs - creates a zip of the labs in build\target\pcf-developer-XXX.RELEASE\Student Files

Run ant on its own for a list of targets and see the Common Build Wiki.

Using Gradle Build

In addition to using the common-build, Eitan’s build scripts are retained for the present. To generate the course as html:

gradle asciidoctor

To generate a PDF version of the course materials:

gradle -b build-pdf.gradle asciidoctor

After reviewing and modifying the manifest.yml file, you can publish the html version of the course contents to PCF with the following command:

cf push

At the moment, Eitan’s version of this course is published to this url.
