java - Installing roo in 5 minutes -


i wanted spend half hour try out spring roo - failed miserably.

the spring roo project page on spring.io tells add maven dependency. i'm not aware of public maven repository providing it

the project page on github includes sources, readme starts

these instructions aimed @ experienced developers looking develop spring roo itself. if new spring roo [..] recommend visit spring roo home page , download official release: http://www.springsource.org/roo

needless say, url points github page..

is there pain-free way of installing spring roo? (let's assume windows 7, jdk 1.7)

i know in time of writing have installed source - think rapid prototyping framework should better.

adding jar project not enough, because need roo shell/console run while developing project.

its quite simple using spring ide/roo plugin. can download spring source tool suite or add update site (same link @ bottom) eclipse version (i did not test update site far).

in ide click file -> new -> spring roo project. sure set appropriate top level package here, i.e. com.yourdomain.projectname (thats roo create artifacts; home directory in linux can abbreviated typing ~ in roo console). select "war" packaging provider.

unfortunately project might not "dynamic web project" facade , not maven related source folders might have been created (seems bug?). in case right click project name -> preferences -> project facets -> dynamic web project 3.0. sure click "further conf..." link @ bottom , insert 'src/main/webapp' content directory.

after right click project again -> spring tools -> open roo shell. , wait console load. can start "quick" start tutorial @ line four, typing in 'hint' in console. try crtl+space content completion.
