| 20 | Build
|
|---|
| 21 | =====
|
|---|
| 22 | A JOSM plugin is built as a single jar. We use ant to build.
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | See build.xml in this directory and update the plugin specific properties in the
|
|---|
| 25 | configuration section.
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | To get an command overview run
|
|---|
| 28 | > ant help
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | To build the plugin run
|
|---|
| 31 | > ant dist
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | To install the generated plugin locally (in you default plugin directory) run
|
|---|
| 34 | > ant install
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | The generated plugin jar is not automatically available in JOSMs plugin configuration
|
|---|
| 37 | dialog. You have to check it in first.
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | Use the ant target 'publish' to check in the plugin and make it available to other
|
|---|
| 40 | JOSM users:
|
|---|
| 41 | set the properties commit.message and plugin.main.version
|
|---|
| 42 | and run
|
|---|
| 43 | > ant publish
|
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | Maintaining versions
|
|---|
| 46 | ====================
|
|---|
| 47 | There are two versions maintained with each plugin:
|
|---|
| 48 | 1) the main version
|
|---|
| 49 | This is the lowest JOSM version required by this plugin.
|
|---|
| 50 | You have to manually set the plugins main version in the build script.
|
|---|
| 51 | Set the property plugin.main.version in build.xml accordingly.
|
|---|
| 52 |
|
|---|
| 53 | 2) the build version
|
|---|
| 54 | The build version is unique for every build of the plugin. It is equal
|
|---|
| 55 | to the SVN revision of your plugin directory.
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | Both the main version and the build version are included in properties of the plugins
|
|---|
| 58 | manifest:
|
|---|
| 59 | Plugin-Version the build version
|
|---|
| 60 | Plugin-Mainversion the main version
|
|---|
| 61 |
|
|---|
| 62 | JOSM automatically detects whether a plugin needs to be upgraded. It compares the build
|
|---|
| 63 | version of the currently installed plugin jar with the build version of the plugin jar in
|
|---|
| 64 | the SVN. The main version is irrelevant for this process.
|
|---|
| 65 |
|
|---|
| 66 | Making your plugin available to JOSM users
|
|---|
| 67 | ===========================================
|
|---|
| 68 | When a plugin jar is checked into SVN a script updates the plugins list on the JOSM wiki:
|
|---|
| 69 | http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Plugins
|
|---|
| 70 | JOSM retrieves the list of available plugins and their build versions from this list.
|
|---|
| 71 |
|
|---|
| 72 | commit publish read
|
|---|
| 73 | meta data meta data
|
|---|
| 74 | Build ==> SVN =======> JOSM Wiki <======= JOSM
|
|---|
| 75 | ^
|
|---|
| 76 | ==================================
|
|---|
| 77 | fetch current plugin jar
|
|---|
| 78 |
|
|---|
| 79 | Note that you have to manually publish (commit) your plugin jar. There is no nightly build
|
|---|
| 80 | in place. Everything else (pulishing meta data, updating plugins in the client) is then handled
|
|---|
| 81 | by automatic processes.
