# Building Apache Karaf

## Initial Setup

1. Install J2SE 8.0 SDK (or later), which can be downloaded from 
   http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
   Use version of "JDK 8.0 Update 131" (or later).

2. Make sure that your JAVA_HOME environment variable is set to the newly installed 
   JDK location, and that your PATH includes `%JAVA_HOME%\bin` (windows) or 
   `$JAVA_HOME$/bin` (unix).

3. Install Maven 3.0.3 (or later), which can be downloaded from 
   http://maven.apache.org/download.html. Make sure that your PATH includes 
   the `$MVN_HOME/bin` directory. 


## Building

1. Change to the top level directory of Apache Karaf source distribution.
2. Run

    ```
    $> mvn clean install
    ```

   This will compile Apache Karaf and run all of the tests in the
   Apache Karaf source distribution. Alternatively, you can run:
   
   ```
   $> mvn clean install -DskipTests
   ```
   
   This will compile Apache Karaf without running the tests and takes less
   time to build.
   
3. The distributions will be available under `assemblies/apache-karaf/target`
   and `assemblies/apache-karaf-minimal/target` directories.
