Build

This plugin can be built with Bazel or Maven.

Two build modes are supported: Standalone and in Gerrit tree. The standalone build mode is recommended, as this mode doesn't require the Gerrit tree to exist locally.

Build standalone

  bazel build @PLUGIN@

The output is created in

  bazel-genfiles/@PLUGIN@.jar

This project can be imported into the Eclipse IDE:

  ./tools/eclipse/project.sh

Build in Gerrit tree

  bazel build plugins/@PLUGIN@

The output is created in

  bazel-genfiles/plugins/@PLUGIN@/@PLUGIN@.jar

This project can be imported into the Eclipse IDE. Add the plugin name to the CUSTOM_PLUGINS set in Gerrit core in tools/bzl/plugins.bzl, and execute:

  ./tools/eclipse/project.py

Maven

Note that the Maven build is provided for compatibility reasons, but it is considered to be deprecated and will be removed in a future version of this plugin.

To build with Maven, run

  mvn clean package

When building with Maven, the Gerrit Plugin API must be available.

How to build the Gerrit Plugin API is described in the Gerrit documentation.
