Developer setup, build, and run steps

Setup

1. Check out this package from version control.
2. Launch Intellij IDEA, choose Import Project, select the root of this package and import it as maven project.
3. To build from the command line, set JAVA_HOME to point to a JDK >=11 before running mvn.

Build

This package is organized into subprojects, most of which contribute JARs to the top-level plugin in the security subproject. All subprojects in this package use the Maven build system. Maven comes with excellent documentation that should be your first stop when trying to figure out how to operate or modify the build.

Building from the command line

This project has a dependency on [security-parent][opendistro-elasticsearch-security-ssl] and [opendistro-elasticsearch-security] projects.You will have to build these projects via maven (mvn clean install) first before attempting to build this package.

To try out the build, issue the following at the command line:

1. mvn compile

This will run Maven, telling it to execute the compile goal. When it’s finished, you should find the compiled .class files in the target/classes directory.

The package goal will compile your Java code, run any tests, and finish by packaging the code up in a JAR file within the target directory.

2. mvn package

The test goal runs all the unit tests in the package

3. mvn test

Debugging

Please refer to the well documented instructions provided by popular IDEs like Intellij and Eclipse on how to setup a debugger to debug code/test failures.
