Getting Started

Note: The easiest way to run Usergrid is to download the double-clickable jar
at:

https://usergrid.s3.amazonaws.com/usergrid-launcher-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

This will let you try out the system without building or installing it.

Requirements

JDK 1.6 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
Maven (http://maven.apache.org/)

Building

Download and install Maven using the instructions on the Apache Maven website,
then, from the command line, go to the usergrid directory and type the
following:

mvn install

This will cause Maven to download and install all the necessary dependencies.
This also runs a small set of tests after compilation, however these tests do
start up an instance of Cassandra. To run the build without all the tests
being fired, use the following:

mvn install -DskipTests=true

Running

Usergrid-core contains the persistence layer and shared utilities for powering
the Usergrid service. The services layer is contained in usergrid-services and
exposes a higher-level API that's used by the usergrid-rest web services tier.

You can run Usergrid as either a webapp in tomcat, by deploying the ROOT.war
file generated in the usergrid/rest project, or from the command-line from the
jar in the usergrid/standalone project, or as a double-clickable app with the
usergrid/launcher project.

If you don't want to do a full build, you can download a pre-built version
of the launcher app from:

https://usergrid.s3.amazonaws.com/usergrid-launcher-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
