How to use nightly Jenkins-built Lucene/Solr Maven artifacts Nightly Jenkins Maven builds are run only for the next minor and major release branches, and not for patch release branches. The most recently produced nightly Jenkins-built Lucene and Solr Maven artifacts for the next minor release branch are available in Maven repository layout here: B. How to generate Lucene Maven artifacts 1. Prerequisites: JDK 1.5+, Ant 1.7.X, and maven-ant-tasks-2.1.1.jar In order to generate Maven artifacts for Lucene/Solr, you must first download the Maven ant tasks JAR (maven-ant-tasks-2.1.1.jar), e.g. from , and add it to any one of the following: a. Your $HOME/.ant/lib/ directory (C:\Users\username\.ant\lib\ under Windows Vista/7); or b. Your $ANT_HOME/lib/ directory (%ANT_HOME%\lib\ under Windows); or c. Your $CLASSPATH (%CLASSPATH% under Windows); or d. Your ant commond line: "-lib /path/to/maven-ant-tasks-2.1.1.jar". 2. Run the following command from the lucene/ directory: ant generate-maven-artifacts The above command will create an internal Maven repository under lucene/dist/maven/, including POMs, binary .jars, source .jars, and javadoc .jars, for Lucene Core, for the Lucene test framework, and for each contrib. C. How to generate Solr Maven artifacts 1. Prerequisites: JDK 1.5+; Ant 1.7.X; and maven-ant-tasks-2.1.1.jar (see item A.1. above for where to put the Maven ant tasks jar). 2. Run the following from the solr/ directory: ant generate-maven-artifacts The above command will create an internal Maven repository under solr/package/maven/, including POMs, binary .jars, source .jars, and javadoc .jars, for Solr Core, for the Solr test framework, for each contrib, and for the Solr .war (for which there are no source or javadoc .jars). D. How to use Maven to build Lucene/Solr In summary, to enable Maven builds, perform the following: svn update ant get-maven-poms mvn -N -Pbootstrap install The details, followed by some example Maven commands: 1. Prerequisites: JDK 1.5+; Maven 2.2.1 or 3.0.X 2. Make sure your sources are up to date. If you checked your sources out from the Apache Subversion repository, run "svn update" from the top level. 3. Copy the Maven POM templates from under dev-tools/maven/ to where they they need to go in order to drive the Maven build, using the following command from the top-level directory: ant get-maven-poms Note that you will need to do this whenever changes to the POM templates are committed. It's a good idea to follow every "svn update" with "ant get-maven-poms" for this reason. The above command copies all of the POM templates from dev-tools/maven/, filling in the project version with the default "X.X-SNAPSHOT". If you want the POMs and the Maven-built artifacts to have a version other than the default, you can supply an alternate version on the command line with the above command, e.g.: ant -Dversion=4.0-my-special-version get-maven-poms 4. Populate your local repository with .jars & POMs for dependencies that are not available from public Maven repositories (a.k.a. "non-mavenized dependencies"): mvn -N -Pbootstrap install Note that you will need to do this whenever changes to the non-Mavenized dependencies are committed. It's a good idea to follow every "svn update" with "ant get-maven-poms" and "mvn -N -Pbootstrap install" for this reason. Some example Maven commands you can use after you perform the above preparatory steps: - Compile, package, and install all artifacts to your local repository: mvn install After compiling and packaging, but before installing each module's artifact, the above command will also run all the module's tests. To compile, package and install all artifacts without running any tests: mvn -DskipTests install - Run tests: mvn test To run all test methods defined in a test class: mvn -Dtest=TestClassName test
