How to automate your build process using Java and Ant?

Automate build with Ant

Outomatiseer bou met Ant

Oorsig:

In hierdie dokument sal ons gesels oor die bou hulpmiddel mier en die gebruik van hierdie hoe ons kan die bou meganisme vir Java-gebaseerde programme te outomatiseer. In vandag se era mier het 'n integrale deel van Java Development. Die meeste kliënte wil 'n outomatiese bou script as 'n deel van die afgelewer bronkode het. Die rede hiervoor is die eenvoud wat deur die mier sodat enigiemand met 'n bietjie script kennis 'n verbintenis binêre kan genereer sonder om te weet die aansoek in detail.

Inleiding:
Apache ant is a generic build tool. Die naam ANT erwe verkorte vir 'n Ander Netjies Tool ". Hierdie instrument is soortgelyk aan die "Maak 'nut in UNIX maar geïmplementeer met behulp van Java. Dit word hoofsaaklik gebruik vir die bou van die binaries van 'n Java-gebaseerde bronkode en implementering van die gegenereerde binêre om 'n aansoek bediener wat is vooraf gedefinieerde. It can also be used to generate javadocs for a code base and to execute the unit test suite for the whole codebase. Ant in collaboration with JUNIT helps developer to follow the test driven development approach.

Ant requires Java compiler to be installed having the environment variable JAVA_HOME set with its adequate value. Ant uses an XML file to define the build procedure. Die standaard naam van hierdie lêer is build.xml. Sommige ontwikkelaars ook gebruik om 'n eiendom te dien naamlik build.properties 'n paar eienskappe Bv definieer. the build version number and other environmental parameters which are required to change from time to time based on the need.

Installation:
Fedora: On RHEL, ANT can be installed using the command – yum install ant or it can be installed using the rpm – i command. In this case you should download the ant package first.

Debian: On Ubuntu, ANT can be installed using the command – apt-get install ant.

Windows: On windows environment we need to download the ant_<VERSION_NO>.zip file. This zip bundle should be extracted in a folder. This folder should be defined as an environment variable ANT_HOME.

A sample build.xml file is shown as under:

LISTING 1: Sample build.xml file

[Code]

<?xml version=”1.0″?>

<project name=”Ant-Test” default=”hoof” basedir=”.”>

<!– Sets variables which can later be used. –>

<!– The value of a property is accessed via ${} –>

<property name=”src.dir” location=”src” />

<property name=”build.dir” location=”bin” />

<property name=”dist.dir” location=”dist” />

<property name=”docs.dir” location=”docs” />

<!– Deletes the existing build, docs and dist directory–>

<target name=”clean”>

<delete dir=”${build.dir}” />

<delete dir=”${docs.dir}” />

<delete dir=”${dist.dir}” />

</target>

<!– Skep die opbou, docs and dist directory–>

<target name=”makedir”>

<mkdir dir=”${build.dir}” />

<mkdir dir=”${docs.dir}” />

<mkdir dir=”${dist.dir}” />

</target>

<!– Compiles the java code (including the usage of library for JUnit –>

<target name=”compile” depends=”clean, makedir”>

<javac srcdir=”${src.dir}” destdir=”${build.dir}”>

</javac>

</target>

<!– Creates Javadoc –>

<target name=”docs” depends=”compile”>

<javadoc packagenames=”src” sourcepath=”${src.dir}” destdir=”${docs.dir}”>

<!– Define which files / directory should get included, we include all –>

<fileset dir=”${src.dir}”>

<include name=”**” />

</fileset>

</javadoc>

</target>

<!–Skep die verbintenis jar-lêer –>

<target name=”jar” depends=”compile”>

<jar destfile=”${dist.dir}\in.kolkalta.build.test.ant.jar” basedir=”${build.dir}”>

<manifest>

<attribute name=”Main-Class” value=”test.Main” />

</manifest>

</jar>

</target>

<target name=”hoof” depends=”compile, jar, docs”>

<description>Main target</description>

</target>

</project>

[/Code]

Automation behulp ANT:
Ant bied 'n groot hulp vir Java-ontwikkelaars. Byna elke Java ontwikkelaar sal graag 'n script wat kan sorg vir die bestuur van die eenheid toets en die skep van die binêre verspreiding lêer wat kan ontplooi word op 'n aansoek bediener. Ant bied ook maniere om outomatiese skrifte wat gebruik word om eenheid toetse uit te voer op 'n kode basis hardloop. Thus, Dit bied hulp aan ontwikkelaars wat die toets gedryf ontwikkeling benadering gebruik. As we know in test driven development methodology JUNIT is a compulsion, dit is altyd 'n bykomende voordeel as ons 'n outomatiese script wat al Junit toets gevalle die op een slag loop. Nie net dat dit script ook gebruik kan word as ons het 'n deurlopende integrasie uitgerust Bv. Hudson. Our following sample code illustrates how to use ANT with JUNIT.

LISTING 2: A Sample java file

[Code]

package com.home.junit;

openbare klas SampleAdd {

openbare int voeg(int x, int y) {

return x + y;

}

}

[/Code]

LISTING 3: The corresponding JUNIT file

[Code]

package com.home.junit;

import org.junit.After;

import org.junit.Assert;

import org.junit.Before;

import org.junit.Test;

openbare klas SampleAddTest {

private SampleAdd sampleClass;

@Before

public void setUp() {

sampleClass = new SampleAdd();

}

@Test

public void testAdd() {

Assert.assertEquals(5, sampleClass.add(3, 2));

}

@After

public void settleDown() {

sampleClass = null;

}

}

[/Code]

LISTING 4: The ANT script to compile and run the JUNIT test

[Code]

<?xml version=”1.0″?>

<project name=”JUNIT” default=”hoof” basedir=”..”>

<!– Sets variables which can later be used. –>

<!– The value of a property is accessed via ${} –>

<property name=”src.dir” location=”src” />

<property name=”test.dir” location=”tests” />

<property name=”build.dir” location=”bin” />

<property name=”build.test.dir” location=”bin/tests” />

<!– Variables used for JUnit testin –>

<property name=”test.report.dir” location=”testreport” />

<!– Define the classpath which includes the junit.jar and the classes after compiling–>

<path id=”junit.class.path”>

<pathelement location=”lib/junit-4.11.jar” />

<pathelement location=”lib/hamcrest-core-1.3.jar” />

<pathelement location=”${build.dir}” />

</path>

<!– Deletes the existing build, docs and dist directory–>

<target name=”clean”>

<delete dir=”${build.dir}” />

<delete dir=”${test.report.dir}” />

</target>

<!– Skep die opbou, docs and dist directory–>

<target name=”makedir”>

<mkdir dir=”${build.dir}” />

<mkdir dir=”${build.test.dir}” />

<mkdir dir=”${test.report.dir}” />

</target>

<!– Compiles the java code (including the usage of library for JUnit –>

<target name=”compile” depends=”clean, makedir”>

<javac srcdir=”${src.dir}” destdir=”${build.dir}”>

<classpath refid=”junit.class.path” />

</javac>

<javac srcdir=”${test.dir}” destdir=”${build.test.dir}”>

<classpath refid=”junit.class.path” />

</javac>

</target>

<!– Run the JUnit Tests –>

<!– Output is XML, could also be plain–>

<target name=”junit” depends=”compile”>

<junit printsummary=”op” fork=”ware” haltonfailure=”yes”>

<classpath refid=”junit.class.path” />

<classpath>

<pathelement location=”${build.test.dir}”/>

</classpath>

<formatter type=”xml” />

<batchtest todir=”${test.report.dir}”>

<fileset dir=”${test.dir}”>

<include name=”**/*Test*.java” />

</fileset>

</batchtest>

</junit>

</target>

<target name=”hoof” depends=”compile, junit”>

<description>Main target</description>

</target>

</project>

[/Code]

When we run this script, dit die eerste keer op te stel die kode basis en dan loop die Junit toetse op die saamgestelde kode en uiteindelik genereer 'n toetsverslag. The test report can be generated in any format. For convenience we have generated this in XML format.

Gevolgtrekking:

  • APACHE ANT 'n Java-gebaseerde program wat gebruik word deur die Java-ontwikkelaars vir die volgende doeleindes
    • To generate the binaries from the source code
    • To generate javadocs for the source code
    • To run JUNIT test cases on a code base
  • ANT in collaboration with JUNIT, helps the java developers to follow the Test Driven Development methodology
