|
####Setup Java
|
|
The Java JDK is used to compile EE3.
|
|
|
|
1. Download and install the Java JDK.
|
|
* [Windows/Mac download link](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html). Scroll down, accept the `Oracle Binary Code License Agreement for Java SE`, and download it (if you have a 64-bit OS, please download the 64-bit version).
|
|
* Linux: Installation methods for certain popular flavors of Linux are listed below. If your distribution is not listed, follow the instructions specific to your package manager or install it manually [here](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html).
|
|
* Gentoo: `emerge dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin`
|
|
* Archlinux: `pacman -S jdk7-openjdk`
|
|
* Ubuntu/Debian: `apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk`
|
|
* Fedora: `yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk`
|
|
2. Windows: Set environment variables for the JDK.
|
|
* Go to `Control Panel\System and Security\System`, and click on `Advanced System Settings` on the left-hand side.
|
|
* Click on `Environment Variables`.
|
|
* Under `System Variables`, click `New`.
|
|
* For `Variable Name`, input `JAVA_HOME`.
|
|
* For `Variable Value`, input something similar to `C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_45` exactly as shown (or wherever your Java JDK installation is), and click `Ok`.
|
|
* Scroll down to a variable named `Path`, and double-click on it.
|
|
* Append `;%JAVA_HOME%\bin` EXACTLY AS SHOWN and click `Ok`. Make sure the location is correct; double-check just to make sure.
|
|
3. Open up your command line and run `javac`. If it spews out a bunch of possible options and the usage, then you're good to go. If not, either try the steps again or check the [FAQ](#faq).
|
|
|
|
####Setup Gradle
|
|
Gradle is used to execute the various build tasks when compiling EE3.
|
|
|
|
1. Download and install Gradle.
|
|
* [Windows/Mac download link](http://www.gradle.org/downloads). You only need the binaries, but choose whatever flavor you want.
|
|
* Unzip the package and put it wherever you want, eg `C:\Gradle`.
|
|
* Linux: Installation methods for certain popular flavors of Linux are listed below. If your distribution is not listed, follow the instructions specific to your package manager or install it manually [here](http://www.gradle.org/downloads).
|
|
* Gentoo: `emerge dev-java/gradle-bin`
|
|
* Archlinux: You'll have to install it from the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gradle)
|
|
* Ubuntu/Debian: `apt-get install gradle`
|
|
* Fedora: `yum install gradle`
|
|
2. Windows: Set environment variables for Gradle.
|
|
* Go back to `Environment Variables` and then create a new system variable.
|
|
* For `Variable Name`, input `GRADLE_HOME`.
|
|
* For `Variable Value`, input something similar to `C:\Gradle-1.10` exactly as shown (or wherever your Gradle installation is), and click `Ok`.
|
|
* Scroll down to `Path` again, and append `;%GRADLE_HOME%\bin` EXACTLY AS SHOWN and click `Ok`. Once again, double-check the location.
|
|
3. Open up your command line and run `gradle`. If it says "Welcome to Gradle [version].", then you're good to go. If not, either try the steps again or check the [FAQ](#faq).
|
|
|
|
####Setup Git
|
|
Git is used to clone EE3 and update your local copy.
|
|
|
|
1. Download and install Git [here](http://git-scm.com/download/).
|
|
2. *Optional*: Download and install a Git GUI client, such as Github for Windows/Mac, SmartGitHg, TortoiseGit, etc. A nice list is available [here](http://git-scm.com/downloads/guis).
|
|
|
|
####Setup EE3
|
|
This section assumes that you're using the command-line version of Git.
|
|
|
|
1. Open up your command line.
|
|
2. Navigate to a place where you want to download EE3's source (eg `C:\Github\Equivalent-Exchange-3\`) by executing `cd [folder location]`. This location is known as `mcdev` from now on.
|
|
3. Execute `git clone https://github.com/pahimar/Equivalent-Exchange-3.git`. This will download EE3's source into `mcdev`.
|
|
4. Right now, you should have a directory that looks something like:
|
|
|
|
***
|
|
mcdev
|
|
\-Equivalent-Exchange-3
|
|
\-EE3's files (should have `build.gradle`)
|
|
***
|
|
|
|
####Compile EE3
|
|
1. Execute `gradle setupDevWorkspace`. This sets up Forge and downloads the necessary libraries to build EE3. This might take some time, be patient.
|
|
* You will generally only have to do this once until the Forge version in `build.properties` changes.
|
|
2. Execute `gradle build`. If you did everything right, `BUILD SUCCESSFUL` will be displayed after it finishes. This should be relatively quick.
|
|
* If you see `BUILD FAILED`, check the error output (it should be right around `BUILD FAILED`), fix everything (if possible), and try again.
|
|
3. Go to `mcdev\Equivalent-Exchange-3\build\libs`.
|
|
* You should see a `.jar` file named `EquivalentExchange3-0.0.#.jar`, where # is the `build_number` value in `build.properties`.
|
|
4. Copy the jar into your Minecraft mods folder, and you are done!
|
|
|
|
####Updating Your Repository
|
|
In order to get the most up-to-date builds, you'll have to periodically update your local repository.
|
|
|
|
1. Open up your command line.
|
|
2. Navigate to `mcdev` in the console.
|
|
3. Make sure you have not made any changes to the local repository, or else there might be issues with Git.
|
|
* If you have, try reverting them to the status that they were when you last updated your repository.
|
|
4. Execute `git pull master`. This pulls all commits from the official repository that do not yet exist on your local repository and updates it.
|
|
|

###FAQ
|
|
Answers to frequently reported issues and/or questions.
|
|
***
|
|
**Q:** What's a command line?
|
|
**A:** The command line is at the heart of every operating system. It's `Command Prompt` for Windows and `Terminal` for Mac and Linux.
|
|
|
|
**Q:** `javac` or `gradle` keeps giving me an error!
|
|
**A:** Make sure the locations you typed are correct. For example, if you typed `C:\Java` for `JAVA_HOME`, make sure `C:\Java` exists, and there's a `bin` folder inside of it.
|
|
|
|
**Q:** Gradle keeps saying `BUILD FAILED` and I don't know how to fix it!
|
|
**A:** Make sure you executed `gradle setupDevWorkspace`. If you already did, try doing it again. If it still fails, try creating an issue.
|
|
|
|
**Q:** My issue/PR was closed!
|
|
**A:** Somebody probably commented and solved your issue, or it was opened a long time ago. If it's a PR, check to see if there's a commit message right before it was closed. If so, pahimar either pulled your PR or found a different way to do it. |
