Hi all, (No rush or urgency here! Just a curious developer looking around) I had some time to move over my stuff to my faster setup and I retried
./gradlew build
and I had significantly more success. So the steps I followed were: 1. Installed docker and forked/git cloned the repo. 2. Ran
./gradlew build
, got an error for: No Java. Installed Java 8 bc I prev. had an issue with Java 11. Added my JAVA_PATH to .bashrc and retried. 3. Got an error for no
venv
- so I `sudo apt install python3.8-venv`and ran again. 4. Got an error for no
jq
- so I
sudo apt install jq
and ran again. 5. Got the
:metadata-io:test
failed and re-found this thread I found with my last attempts. I used
./gradlew build -x check
and I'm happy to say that the build was successful. So, the questions I have now are: 1. Did I miss a step with Docker? Do I need to run the quickstart so that the
:metadata-io:test
will work correctly? 2. I'm interested in baby-stepping into making code changes, but I'm new and inexperienced. Would my next steps be to make the changes, re-build and then run
docker/dev.sh
to launch a container and inspect the changes? 3. Is it necessary to always rebuild after changes are made and redeploy to docker? Or if I wanted to focus on the React part could I just run it locally? If so, how might I do this? 4. Finally would it be helpful at all for me to add slightly more detailed instructions to the developer's setup guide? Thanks all. Have a nice weekend, try and catch that fall weather! 🍂🍁
[update] Its working now. My other machine was too weak to handle docker/building. The
metadata-io:test
is still failing and i get some react errors, but I can make changes and use docker/dev.sh and fiddle around in localhost. Thanks for the help all. Next up is getting it loaded and building in intellij.
