Building Wanaku MCP Router

Overview

Before running or deploying the Wanaku MCP Router, you need to build the project from source.

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 the Wanaku MCP Router, 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

Building with Native Backend Support

The Wanaku backend also supports native mode, but this feature has not been fully tested.

To enable native mode for the backend, run:

mvn -Pdist -Dnative -Dnative-router clean package

IMPORTANT

Native support is experimental

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully build the Wanaku project and prepare it for deployment.

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
