*** Introduction
***
This is the source tree for the software produced by the SQO-OSS project.
The main software product is Alitheia Core, the platform for the automated
measurement of the quality of projects.
The README gives an overview of how the source tree is organised and sort
instructions on how to use and develop for Alitheia Core. Full documentation
is always available at the project's web site at
http://www.sqo-oss.org
***
*** Source Organisation
***
You can find the following files and directories here:
LICENSE
These are the licenses that apply to the software included in this
source tree. The LICENSE file applies to Alitheia itself, and is the
2-clause BSD license. Other parts of the system may have different
licenses, and these are contained in separate files. Many software
components used in (or by) Alitheia fall under that Apache License,
version 2.
pom.xml
As any other modern Java project, Alitheia Core uses maven for building.
We also use the Pax OSGi tools. You need to have those installed if
you plan to add functionality or external libraries to Alitheia Core
alitheia/
Contains the Alitheia Core source code (under core/) and modules for the
programmating interfaces to the system.
external/
External libraries (actually library references) to be bundled as OSGi
bundles at complile time.
metrics/
Contains the source code of the various metric plug-ins developed for the
Alitheia system. Each metric is a self-contained codebase.
plug-ins/
Code for data and updater plug-ins.
ui/
Source code for a simple client to the Alitheia Core REST api.
***
*** Getting the code
***
The source code to Alitheia Core is maintained on Github, using the Git
version control system. To get the code (including development history)
Git must be installed. Git can be downloaded from: http://git-scm.com/download
Without a Github account, the code can be checked out as follows:
git clone git://github.com/gousiosg/Alitheia-Core.git
Courtesy of Github, a zip of the current latest version of the software
can be downloaded.

***
*** Compiling, running and developing
***
Alitheia Core is build using Maven (tested with version > 3). You can download
Maven from the following link: http://maven.apache.org/
- To build the project, do:
mvn install
- To run Alitheia Core, you need to configure a database first. Consult the
online Quickstart guide at http://www.sqo-oss.org/quickstart
on how to do it. Then, run:
mvn pax:provision
Then visit the web interface: http://localhost:8080
- To debug Alitheia Core (on Unix-based systems):
mvn install pax:provision
[quit the OSGi prompt]
./debug.sh
Then you can connect a remote Java debugger to port 8000 on localhost.
- To develop for Alitheia Core:
* To develop a metric plug-in: see metrics/README.txt
* To develop a data plug-in: see plug-ins/README.txt
Any tool can be used to write code for Alitheia Core, but using Eclipse will
simplify things a lot. Instructions can be found in README.eclipse
