Building CorDapps against Master
It is advisable to develop CorDapps against the most recent Corda stable release. However, you may need to build a CorDapp against the unstable Master branch if your CorDapp uses a very recent feature, or you are using the CorDapp to test a PR on the main codebase.
To work against the Master branch, proceed as follows:
Clone the Corda repository
Open a terminal window in the folder where you cloned the Corda repository
Use the following command to check out the latest master branch:
git checkout master; git pull
Publish Corda to your local Maven repository using the following commands:
- Unix/Mac OSX:
./gradlew install
- Windows:
gradlew.bat install
Warning
If you do modify your local Corda repository after having published it to Maven local, then you must re-publish it to Maven local for the local installation to reflect the changes you have made.
Warning
As the Corda repository evolves on a daily basis, two clones of the Master branch at different points in time may differ. If you are using a Master release and need help debugging an error, then please let us know the commit you are working from. This will help us ascertain the issue.
- Update the
ext.corda_release_version
property in your CorDapp's rootbuild.gradle
file to match the version here: https://github.com/corda/corda/blob/master/build.gradle#L7
