# Shoes-warbler

This is an experiment with using [Warbler](https://github.com/jruby/warbler) and the [Java Application Bundler](http://java.net/projects/appbundler) to package a Shoes 4 app.

## Prerequisites

You need the Java 7 JDK and Apache Ant installed. To generate an app template, you will need to be using OS X. You can use any platform to generate a JAR and inject it into the existing app template.

### OS X

Download and install Oracle Java 7 or OpenJDK 7

### Ubuntu

    $ sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

    $ sudo apt-get install ant

### Windows

Help wanted.

## Setup your environment

You may have to supplement these instructions :)

1. Install jruby and create a gemset for this project

        rvm install jruby

        rvm gemset create shoes-warbler

        rvm use jruby-1.6.7@shoes-warbler

2. Setup git submodules

        git submodule init

        git submodule update

3. Build and install custom dependencies

        rake deps

 

4. Install gems

        gem install plist

## Get started

Consider this a proof of concept. You can personalize as you wish. You get:

- an example Shoes 4 app at `bin/hello_from_warbler`. This can be

  replaced with any Shoes 4 app. Just follow the template. Make sure your

  app does not have an extension (Warbler doesn't like that).

- a `project.gemspec`. Make sure that your Shoes 4 app is included in

  the list of executables, and that the `shoes` gem is included in your

  list of dependencies.

- a `bin/package` packager. This will package your Shoes 4 app plus

  dependencies into a .jar in the project root.

- a `vendor` directory, containing

    - git submodules that track custom versions of dependencies

      (changes haven't been merged upstream yet).

    - the Java Application Bundler Ant tasks

## Configure your app

Edit the `app.yaml` file. See comments in the example file for

explanation of the various options.

## Package your app as a JAR

    $ rake jar

    $ java -XstartOnFirstThread -Djruby.compat.version=1.9 -jar test-app.jar

where `test-app` is the name of your JAR (as specified in your

`app.yaml` file)

## Package your app a Mac APP

    $ rake app

    $ open Test App.app

where `Test App` is the name of your app (as specified in your `app.yaml` file).

## Generate a new app template (OS X only)

    $ rake app:template

Look for the template in `static/templates/shoes-app-template.zip`
