Build

This plugin can be built with Buck or Maven.

Buck

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

Clone bucklets library:

  git clone https://gerrit.googlesource.com/bucklets

and link it to reviewers plugin directory:

  cd reviewers && ln -s ../bucklets .

Add link to the .buckversion file:

  cd reviewers && ln -s bucklets/buckversion .buckversion

To build the plugin, issue the following command:

  buck build plugin

The output is created in

  buck-out/gen/reviewers.jar

Build in Gerrit tree

Clone or link this plugin to the plugins directory of Gerrit's source tree, and issue the command:

  buck build plugins/reviewers

The output is created in

  buck-out/gen/plugins/reviewers/reviewers.jar

This project can be imported into the Eclipse IDE:

  ./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.
