This is the uber-repo. To build the entire codebase, get this project and its sub-modules:
git clone http://github.com/apache/brooklyn/
cd brooklyn
git submodule init
git submodule update --remote --merge --recursive
And then, with jdk 1.8+ and maven 3.1+ installed:
mvn clean install -Dno-go-client -Dno-rpm
The results are in brooklyn-dist/dist/target/, including a tar and a zip.
Or to run straight after the build, do:
pushd brooklyn-dist/dist/target/brooklyn-dist/brooklyn/
bin/brooklyn launch
The Developers section of the main website contains more detail on working with the codebase. There is also a more Developer Guide specific to each version, including this branch (0.12.0), latest stable, and older releases.
