Building this Release from Source

All platforms require a Java installation, with JDK 1.8 or more recent version.

Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. For example:

Platform Command
Unix export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_121
OSX export JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8
Windows set JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_121"

Download the project source from the Releases page at Apache Geode, and unpack the source code.

Within the directory containing the unpacked source code, run the gradle build:

$ ./gradlew build

Once the build completes, the project files will be installed at geode-assembly/build/install/apache-geode. The distribution archives will be created in geode-assembly/build/distributions/.

Verify the installation by invoking the gfsh shell command to print version information:

$ ./geode-assembly/build/install/apache-geode/bin/gfsh version
v1.1.0

Note: on Windows invoke the gfsh.bat script to print the version string.
