Apollo is being developed by the Apollo Foundation and supporting members of the community.

This repository contains core classes of Apollo blockchain platform. For executable builds please refer Apollo-exec repository.

Java 11 is required to run the desktop clients.

##Other modules required to build Apollo components

1. Apollo-bom-ext
2. Apollo-web-ui
3. Apollo-exec

If you have already installed jdk 11, you can skip "Preparation steps" section, but its recommended to review your software versions using instructions from "Preparation steps" section

1. Download Java Development Kit (jdk), version 11
2. Setup JAVA_HOME variable to point on unpacked jdk if not set
3. Add to PATH variable path to java binaries -> $JAVA_HOME/bin

   NOTE: if your computer has jdk 8, jdk 9 or jdk 10, you should remove path from PATH variable

4. Open command line and execute: java -version.

Output example: 

  java version "11.0.2" 2019-01-15 LTS

  Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9-LTS)

  Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9-LTS, mixed mode)

5. If version matches downloaded version, your java was installed successfully and you can proceed with next steps. If version does not match, delete old version, setup variables (JAVA_HOME, PATH) and try again. PATH should not contain few java bin directories!
6. Open command line, change your current directory to this project root and execute

• for Linux:

./mvnw -v

• for Windows cmd:

mvnw -v

Output example:

  Apache Maven 3.6.2 (40f52333136460af0dc0d7232c0dc0bcf0d9e117; 2019-08-27T18:06:16+03:00)

  Maven home: /home/your_user_name/.m2/wrapper/dists/apache-maven-3.6.2-bin/795eh28tki48bv3l67maojf0ra/apache-maven-3.6.2

  Java version: 11.0.2, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: /usr/java/jdk-11.0.2

  Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8

  OS name: "linux", version: "4.20.16-200.fc29.x86_64", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

7. If maven version, javaHome and java_version matches your downloaded java then you are able to build and run wallet! Just choose your OS from the list below and perform specified steps.

• Clone repository using git command git clone or download archive file of source code
• go to source directory
• run ./build-all.sh (or ./build-all.sh -DskipTests for skipping tests)

• Clone repository using git command git clone or download archive file of source code
• go to source directory
• run build-all.bat (or build-all.bat -DskipTests for skipping tests)

Project is entirely on Maven v3 and could be loaded in any IDE that supports Maven.
