ros3dtoolbarjs Build Setup

Grunt is used for building, including concatenating, minimizing, documenting, linting, and testing.

Install Grunt and its Dependencies

Ubuntu

  1. Install Node.js and its package manager, NPM
  • sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
  • sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
  • sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nodejs phantomjs
  1. Install Grunt and the test runner Karma
  • sudo npm install -g grunt-cli karma
  • sudo rm -rf ~/.npm ~/tmp
  1. Install the Grunt tasks specific to this project
  • cd /path/to/ros3dtoolbarjs/utils/
  • npm install .
  1. (Optional) To generate the documentation, you'll need to setup Java. Documentation generation is not required for patches.
  • echo "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java/jre" >> ~/.bashrc
  • source ~/.bashrc

OS X

  1. Install Node.js and its package manager, NPM
  1. Install Grunt and the test runner Karma
  • sudo npm install -g grunt-cli karma
  1. Install the Grunt tasks specific to this project
  • cd /path/to/ros3dtoolbarjs/utils/
  • npm install .

Build with Grunt

Before proceeding, please confirm you have installed the dependencies above.

To run the build tasks:

  1. cd /path/to/ros3dtoolbarjs/utils/
  2. grunt build

grunt build will concatenate and minimize the files under src and replace ros3dtoolbar.js and ros3dtoolbar.min.js in the build directory. It will also run the linter and test cases. This is what Travis CI runs when a Pull Request is submitted.

grunt dev will watch for any changes to any of the src/ files and automatically concatenate and minimize the files. This is ideal for those developing as you should only have to run grunt dev once.

grunt doc will rebuild all JSDoc for the project.
