This document helps people to compile and build the project in your maven and set your IDE.
Because we are using Git submodule, we recommend don't use GitHub
tag or release page to download source codes for compiling.
If you need to execute build behind the proxy, edit the .mvn/jvm.config and put the follow properties:
-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy_ip
-Dhttp.proxyPort=proxy_port
-Dhttps.proxyHost=proxy_ip
-Dhttps.proxyPort=proxy_port
-Dhttp.proxyUser=username
-Dhttp.proxyPassword=password
-
Prepare git, JDK8+ and Maven 3.6+
-
Clone project
If you want to build a release from source codes, provide a
tag name
by usinggit clone -b [tag_name] ...
while cloning.git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/apache/skywalking.git cd skywalking/ OR git clone https://github.com/apache/skywalking.git cd skywalking/ git submodule init git submodule update
-
Run
./mvnw clean package -DskipTests
-
All packages are in
/dist
(.tar.gz for Linux and .zip for Windows).
- What is
Apache source code release
?
For each official Apache release, there is a complete and independent source code tar, which is including all source codes. You could download it from SkyWalking Apache download page. No git related stuff required when compiling this. Just follow these steps.
- Prepare JDK8+ and Maven 3.6+
- Run
./mvnw clean package -DskipTests
- All packages are in
/dist
.(.tar.gz for Linux and .zip for Windows).
SkyWalking is a complex maven project, including many modules, which could cause long compiling time. If you just want to recompile part of the project, you have following options
- Compile agent and package
./mvnw package -Pagent,dist
or
make build.agent
If you intend to compile a single one plugin, such as in the dev stage, you could
cd plugin_module_dir & mvn clean package
- Compile backend and package
./mvnw package -Pbackend,dist
or
make build.backend
- Compile UI and package
./mvnw package -Pui,dist
or
make build.ui
We can build docker images of backend
and ui
with Makefile
located in root folder.
Refer to Build docker image for more details.
NOTICE: If you clone the codes from GitHub, please make sure that you had finished step 1 to 3 in section Build from GitHub, if you download the source codes from the official website of SkyWalking, please make sure that you had followed the steps in section Build from Apache source code release.
- Import the project as a maven project
- Run
./mvnw compile -Dmaven.test.skip=true
to compile project and generate source codes. Because we use gRPC and protobuf. - Set Generated Source Codes folders.
