Build instructions in README #133

Open jwbrase opened 7 years ago

jwbrase commented 7 years ago

Could build instructions be included in the README? I managed to figure out that I need Maven, which I'm not familiar with. The documentation for Maven indicates that "maven clean install" will build most Maven projects, and it does indeed build something, but the jar I get from that won't actually run, nor does "maven clean install" build the documentation (though I figured out how to get it, with a few kinks, by invoking xelatex directly).

Hello!

This is a good idea. Since it's a Java project, unless you are building from snapshots, there's not much need to build the project yourself and can download the latest release. I'll open a ticket to add build instructions to the README file though, that's very sensible.

To actually do the build, you would need to run mvn assembly:single to create the executable jar.

I appreciate your interest in my work, I'm currently trying to get a new version out, including a UI.

I'm feeling really stupid now. I'd totally missed the existence of the binaries.

I'm actually perfectly content with running from the command line: My current SCA setup is ASCA 1.6 running from a Makefile. "make -j5 all" runs changes on an entire conlang tree (or multiple, if I currently had more than one defined).
