Build Wanaku Barn from source

Overview

This page shows how to build the Barn components from source: the Wanaku CLI, the Barn backend, the Wanaku Operator, and the Admin UI plugins.

Prerequisites

• Java 21 or later
• Apache Maven 3.x is required to build and package the project.
• For (experimental) native CLI builds, please follow the Quarkus instructions on how to set up your environment.

Building the Project

To build all the Barn components, run:

mvn verify

This command will compile, test, and verify the project.

To package it into a distributable format (i.e.: tarballs), run:

mvn -Pdist clean package

Building with Native CLI Support

To build the project with native CLI support, run:

mvn -Pnative clean package

Native build tips

The project comes with rudimentary automation for native builds for development purposes. For instance, you can install the CLI into your $HOME/bin/ directory by running:

eval $(make prepare)
make cli-native
make install

See PATH Configuration if $HOME/bin is not on your default PATH.

Building with the containers

mvn -Pdist -Dquarkus.container-image.build=true -Dquarkus.container-image.push=true clean package
