• Git
• Web browser

Please also check our wiki for a detailed install instruction, development procedure, coding conventions and further reading. Please also checkout our project issue tracker.

Fast installation with maven

Step 1: Clone the repository and compile

git clone git://github.com/OpenRoberta/robertalab.git
cd robertalab/OpenRobertaParent
mvn clean install

Get a coffee! Might take a couple of minutes.

Step 2a: Starting your own server instance using a unix-like shell (on either lin* or win*).

cd .. # return to the root folder
./ora.sh --start # start the server using default properties

You can also run ./ora.sh --help for more options.

Step 2b: Starting your own server instance without using the shell script

cd ../OpenRobertaServer # go to the folder of the server resources and the database
java -cp target/resources/\* de.fhg.iais.roberta.main.ServerStarter --properties  --ip 0.0.0.0 --port 1999

Step 3: Accessing your programming environment

Start your browser at: http://localhost:1999

That's it!
