0N/AOpenGrok - a wicked fast source browser
0N/A---------------------------------------
0N/AOpenGrok is a fast and usable source code search and cross reference
0N/Aengine, written in Java. It helps you search, cross-reference and navigate
0N/Ayour source tree. It can understand various program file formats and
115N/Aversion control histories like SCCS, RCS, CVS, Subversion and Mercurial.
0N/AOpenGrok is the tool used for the OpenSolaris Source Browser.
116N/A * A servlet container like Tomcat (
5.x or later)
116N/A supporting Servlet 2.4 and JSP 2.0
0N/A * Subversion 1.3.0 or later if SVN support is needed
115N/A * Mercurial 0.9.3 or later if Mercurial support is needed
115N/A * JFlex Ant task (If you want to build OpenGrok)
0N/ASRC_ROOT refers to the directory containing your source tree.
0N/AOpenGrok analyzes the source tree and builds a search index along with
0N/Across-referenced hypertext versions of the source files. These generated
0N/Adata files will be stored in DATA_ROOT directory.
0N/AOpenGrok setup Step.0 - Setting up the Sources.
0N/A----------------------------------------------
0N/ASource base must be available locally for OpenGrok to work efficiently. No
115N/Achanges are required to your source tree. If the code is under source control
115N/Amanagement (SCM) OpenGrok requires the checked out source tree under SRC_ROOT.
115N/AIt is possible for some SCM systems to use a remote repository (Subversion),
115N/Abut this is not recommended due to the performance penalty. CVS must have a
0N/ANote that OpenGrok ignores symbolic links.
0N/A---------------------------------------------------
0N/AUsing command line interface.
0N/A---------------------------------------------------
0N/AStep.1 - Populate DATA_ROOT Directory
0N/A=====================================
299N/AOption 1. OpenGrok: There is a sample shell script OpenGrok that is suitable
0N/Afor using in a cronjob to run regularly. Modify the variables in the script
299N/Ato point appropriate directories, or as the code suggests factor your local
299N/Aconfiguration into a seperate file and simplify future upgrades.
0N/Athe sources are all located in a directory SRC_ROOT and the data and
0N/Ahypertext files generated by OpenGrok are to be stored in DATA_ROOT, run
0N/A===============================================
0N/ATo configure the webapp
source.war, look into the parameters defined in
0N/A * HEADER: is the fragment of HTML that will be used to display title or
0N/A logo of your project
0N/A * SRC_ROOT: the absolute path name of the root directory of your source tree
0N/A * DATA_ROOT: absolute path of the directory where OpenGrok data
0N/AOptional Step.3 - Path Descriptions
0N/A-----------------------------------
0N/AOpenGrok uses path descriptions in various places (For eg. while showing
0N/Adirectory listings or search results) Example descriptions are in
paths.tsv 0N/Afile. You can list descriptions for directories one per line tab separated
0N/Aformat path tab description. Refer to example 4 below.
115N/ANote 1 - Changing webapp parameters:
web.xml is the deployment descriptor
0N/Afor the web application. It is in a Jar file named
source.war, you can
0N/A Then copy the war files to <i>TOMCAT</i>/webapps directory.
116N/A * Option 3: Edit the Context container element for the webapp
116N/A When invoking OpenGrok to build the index, use -w <webapp> to set the
116N/A After the index is built, there's a couple different ways to set the
116N/A Context for the servlet container:
116N/A <Parameter name="HEADER" value='...' override="false" />
116N/A - Create a Context file for the webapp
116N/A This file will be named `<webapp>.xml'.
116N/A For Tomcat, the file will be located at:
116N/A is the Engine that is processing requests and <hostname> is a Host
116N/A associated with that Engine. By default, this path is
116N/A This file will contain something like the Context described above.
0N/A---------------------------------------------------
295N/A---------------------------------------------------
295N/Ayou have to download Findbugs to your machine, and install it where you have
295N/AYou can now run ant with the findbugs target:
295N/A [findbugs] Executing findbugs from ant task
295N/A [findbugs] Running FindBugs...
295N/A [findbugs] Warnings generated: nnn
341N/AIf you want to install findbugs some other place than ~/.ant/lib, you can untar the
341N/Afindbugs, like this (if you have installed fundbugs under the lib directory):
341N/AThere is also a findbugs-xml ant target that can be used to generate XML files that can
301N/A---------------------------------------------------
301N/A---------------------------------------------------
301N/AIf you want to check test coverage on OpenGrok, download Emma from
301N/ANow you can instrument your classes, and create a jar file:
301N/AIf you are using NetBeans, select File - "opengrok" Properties
301N/AIf you are not using netbeans, you have to edit the file
301N/ANow you can put the classes into jars and generate distributables:
301N/Athe run time analysis, use these properties:
301N/Adirectory for easy analyzation.
301N/AIf you want to test the coverage of the unit tests, you can
301N/A ant test (Or Alt+F6 in NetBeans)
301N/ANow you should get some output saying that Emma is placing runtime
301N/ATo generate reports, run ant again:
576N/ANote: For full coverage report your system has to provide proper junit test
576N/Aenvironment, that would mean:
576N/A- you have to use ant 1.7 and above
576N/A- at least junit-4.?.jar has to be in ants classpath (
e.g. in ./lib)
576N/A- your PATH must contain exuberant ctags binary
576N/A- your PATH variable must contain binaries of appropriate SCM SW, so commands
576N/Ahg, sccs, cvs, git, bzr, svn (svnadmin too) must be available for full report
379N/A---------------------------------------------------
379N/A---------------------------------------------------
379N/ATo check that your code follows the standard coding conventions,
398N/AYou need Version 5.0-beta01 (or newer). Extract the package you have
398N/A ln -s checkstyle-5.0-beta01 checkstyle
379N/AYou also have to create symbolic links to the jar files:
379N/ATo run checkstyle on the source code, just run ant checkstyle:
411N/AOutput from the command will be stored in the checkstyle directory.
398N/AIf you want to install checkstyle some other place than ~/.ant/lib, you can
398N/Ato tell ant where to find checkstyle, like this (if you have installed
398N/Acheckstyle under the lib directory):
411N/A---------------------------------------------------
411N/A---------------------------------------------------
411N/ATo check the quality of the OpenGrok code you can also use PMD
411N/AYou also have to make links to the jar files:
411N/ATo run PMD on the rource code, just run ant pmd:
411N/AOutout from the command will be stored in the pmd subdirectory.
411N/AIf you want to install PMD some other place than ~/.ant/lib, you can
411N/Aunzip the .zip file to a directory, and use the
pmd.home property
411N/Ato tell ant where to find PMD, like this (if you have installed
411N/APMD under the lib directory):
624N/A---------------------------------------------------
624N/A---------------------------------------------------
624N/ATo see dependencies in the source code, you can use JDepend from
624N/A ln -s jdepend-2.9/ jdepend
624N/AOutput is stored in the jdepend directory:
