[[installing.netbeans]]
= Installing the NetBeans IDE and Plugin

Vaadin offers official support for the NetBeans IDE.
The Vaadin Plug-in for NetBeans supports creating Vaadin projects, updating Vaadin libraries, compiling widget sets, and more.
It also allows directly downloading Vaadin add-ons from the Vaadin Directory.

.Installation of the NetBeans IDE toolchain
image::img/installation-netbeans-hi.png[width=100%, scaledwidth=100%]

The installation bundle includes a web server, so you do not need that.

Once done with the installation, you can proceed to create a Vaadin project, as described in <<DUMMY/../../../framework/getting-started/getting-started-netbeans#getting-started.netbeans, "Creating a Project with the NetBeans IDE">>.

[[installing.netbeans.ide]]
== Installing the NetBeans IDE

Download NetBeans IDE from the website at https://netbeans.org/downloads/[netbeans.org].
We recommend using the _Java EE_ download bundle, which includes support for Java EE, and also both the GlassFish and Tomcat application servers.

. Run the installer

.. In OS X and Linux:
+
[subs="normal"]
----
[prompt]#$# [command]#sh# [replaceable]#netbeans-<version>.sh#
----

. Select to install either GlassFish or Apache Tomcat, or both.
GlassFish supports Java EE, which is required by Vaadin CDI and Vaadin Spring add-ons, while standard Tomcat does not support it.
Click [guibutton]#Next#.

+

endif::web[]

. If you accept the license, click [guibutton]#Next#.

. Choose installation folder and Java SDK.
ifdef::web[]
+
image::img/installing-netbeans-3.png[width=60%]
endif::web[]
+
In OS X and Linux, if you ran the installer with root permissions or can write to [filename]#/opt#, the [filename]#/opt# path is standard for such system-wide packages.
+
Click [guibutton]#Next#.

. Choose the folder for installing the server.
ifdef::web[]
+
image::img/installing-netbeans-4.png[width=60%]
endif::web[]

. Check the settings.
ifdef::web[]
+
image::img/installing-netbeans-5.png[width=60%]
endif::web[]
+
Click [guibutton]#Finish#.
It takes a while to install the NetBeans IDE.

. Finally, click [guibutton]#Done# to exit the installer.

You can now start NetBeans by starting the [filename]#bin/netbeans# from under the installation folder.

In Linux and OS X:

[subs="normal"]
----
[prompt]#$# [replaceable]#/opt/netbeans-8.1#/bin/netbeans
----

You can now proceed to install the Vaadin Plug-in for NetBeans IDE.

[[installing.netbeans.plugin]]
== Installing the Vaadin Plug-in for NetBeans IDE

You can install the plug-in from the NetBeans Plugin Portal Update Center as follows.

. Select "Tools > Plugins" from the NetBeans main menu.

. Select the [guilabel]#Available Plugins# tab.
.. Type "Vaadin" in the [guilabel]#Search# box and press kbd:Enter[].
.. Select the [guilabel]#Install# check box for the [guilabel]#Vaadin Plugin for NetBeans#.
ifdef::web[]
+
image::img/installing-netbeans-plugin-1.png[width=80%]
endif::web[]

.. Click [guibutton]#Install#.

. In the plugin installation window, click [guibutton]#Next#.
. Accept the license if choose to do so.
Click [guibutton]#Install#.

. The Vaadin Plugin is not signed, so you need to verify the certificate.
Click [guibutton]#Continue#.

. In the final step, select [guilabel]#Restart IDE now" and click [guibutton]#Finish#.

You can now proceed to create a Vaadin project, as described in <<DUMMY/../../../framework/getting-started/getting-started-netbeans#getting-started.netbeans, "Creating a Project with the NetBeans IDE">>.

The Vaadin Plug-in for NetBeans IDE can also be downloaded from the plug-in page at http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/50531/vaadin-plug-in-for-netbeans[plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/50531/vaadin-plug-in-for-netbeans].
