Hello,
I want to build community version 6.0 from source code :
Including Activiti, Platform, Share, Repository etc. and Tomcat, MySQL Configuration
What is the best document to follow for the sequence of steps?
While being open source means you "can" technically build Alfresco from source, little effort has been put into making it an easy exercise, especially given how the various sub-projects have now been modularised. There is no step-by-step documentation anywhere for building the entire platform / portfolio, so you will have to figure out a couple of details yourself.
dreadful scenario!!
It would be helpful to point out the git hub repositories from both these organizations which are needed for a browser based system(excluding mobile and api)
Thanks Alex.
I found this document on community.:
Will this help?
No - that blog post is not intended to build the entire Alfresco platform from source. It focuses primarily on extensions / custom installations.
I am curious as to why you feel you need to build from source.
Thanks for asking Jeff. We need to learn and get some idea of complexity.
Otherwise, can we do some of our own customization without building from source?
Yes, the best practice is to do customizations using the public extension points. This does not require you to build the Alfresco code at all. The easiest way to do this is via the Maven-based SDK. Here is a tutorial: Getting Started with the Alfresco Maven SDK | ECMArchitect | Alfresco Developer Tutorials
