# BuildVu Microservice Example #
IDRsolutions' BuildVu Microservice Example is an open source project that allows you to convert PDF to HTML5 or SVG by running BuildVu as a web service in the cloud or on-premise.
**Please note that BuildVu is paid-for, commercial software - however you can use the trial version for free. Just rename the trial .jar to "buildvu.jar".**
-----
# How do I get set up? #
### What you'll need: ###
* [BuildVu](https://www.idrsolutions.com/buildvu/download/) - this provides all the conversion functionality.
* [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi) - used to build the .war file.
### Trial Version: ###
If you do not have a full verison of BuildVu you can get the trial version from [here](https://www.idrsolutions.com/buildvu/trial-download/).
### Build: ###
Clone a copy of the buildvu-microservice-example git repo:
```
git clone git://github.com/idrsolutions/buildvu-microservice-example
```
Add the BuildVu jar to the project by copying it into the /lib directory. Make sure that it is named "buildvu.jar"
Open up a terminal / command prompt window in the base directory of the buildvu-microservice-example project, and build the .war file by running the command:
```
mvn compile war:war
```
This will generate the buildvu.war file inside the /target directory.
### Deployment: ###
See our [application server tutorials](https://docs.idrsolutions.com/buildvu/app-server-deployment/) for instructions on deployment.
See our [cloud platform tutorials](https://docs.idrsolutions.com/buildvu/docker-deployment/) for instructions on cloud deployment.
### docker-compose deployment: ###
Docker usage has moved to it's own project [here](https://github.com/idrsolutions/buildvu-docker).
-----
### Usage: ###
