# RingoJS
Ringo is a JavaScript platform built on the JVM and optimized for server-side applications.
It's based on the Mozilla Rhino JavaScript engine.
It adds a number of features to Rhino that make it suitable for real-world,
large-scale application development:
* A fast, auto-reloading, and CommonJS-compliant module loader.
* A rich set of modules covering I/O, logging, development tools
and much more.
* Support for blocking and non-blocking I/O.
* Scalable HTTP server based on the Jetty project.
* Support for CommonJS packages to install or write additional software
components.
For more information, visit the RingoJS web site:
## Download and Installation
Download the latest precompiled release from the [download page](https://ringojs.org/download/). Extract the archive and add the `ringojs/bin` directory to your local `PATH` for convinience.
If you use the Homebrew package manager on MacOS, you can use the ringojs formula: `brew install ringojs`
Take a look at the [Getting Started Guide](https://ringojs.org/get_started/) on Ringo's website for more details
how to get started after you installed Ringo on your system.
### Verify releases
To verify the integrity of a downloaded binary distribution, use the associated checksum file:
```
$ grep ringojs-x.y.z.tar.gz SHASUMS256-x.y.z.txt | sha256sum -c -
```
#### Verifying the integrity of provided checksums
Releases of RingoJS will be signed with one of the following GPG keys:
* 3.0.0 and newer: Philipp Naderer-Puiu <[email protected]>
`1405 9F17 6485 6429 089F B423 6167 CFBB BDF2 A508`
* 2.0.0 and older: Philipp Naderer-Puiu <[email protected]>
`DE2A A9A1 B018 6C2F 622F D9EF 3F47 C28B 23EB 3072`
* 1.2.0 and older: Philipp Naderer <[email protected]>
`8FF2 26B7 F268 547B 176F ABAC F312 313B 5CBC 0883`
All official releases will be signed by at least one published key.
Get the latest release key for 3.0.0 and newer with:
```
$ gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 14059F1764856429089FB4236167CFBBBDF2A508
```
Download the checksums `SHASUMS256.txt` and separate signature `SHASUMS256.txt.sig` for the release, e.g.
```
$ curl -LO https://github.com/ringo/ringojs/releases/download/v4.0.0/SHASUMS256-4.0.0.txt
$ curl -LO https://github.com/ringo/ringojs/releases/download/v4.0.0/SHASUMS256-4.0.0.txt.sig
```
Now verify the checksums with:
```
$ gpg --verify SHASUMS256-4.0.0.txt.sig
gpg: assuming signed data in 'SHASUMS256-4.0.0.txt'
gpg: Signature made Wed Feb 23 12:07:10 2022 CET
gpg: using RSA key 14059F1764856429089FB4236167CFBBBDF2A508
gpg: Good signature from "Philipp Naderer-Puiu " [ultimate]
```
## Building from Source
[](https://github.com/ringo/ringojs/actions/workflows/test-publish-main.yaml)
Ringo runs on top of the Java Platform. You can use an open implementation like [Eclipse Temurin][EclipseTemurin] or [Oracle's distribution][OracleJava].
It uses [Gradle] as build tool.
[EclipseTemurin]: https://adoptium.net/
[OracleJava]: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
[Gradle]: https://gradle.org/
If you have these installed, building Ringo is straightforward:
Check out Ringo using Git:
git clone git://github.com/ringo/ringojs.git
Change to the ringojs directory and run
./gradlew
