# How to build

## REQUISITES

To build this project you will need the JDK 1.8 and maven 3.3. Thanks to maven all the code dependencies will be automatically downloaded.

## COMPILE THE CODE

Go to the same folder where the `pom.xml` file is and type:

```
mvn package
```

This command will download the dependencies, compile the code and create a war package, `orchestrator.war`, which will be put inside the `docker` folder.

## COMPILE THE DOCKER IMAGE

After the previous step, you can build the Docker image of the Orchestrator with the command:

```
docker build -t indigodatacloud/orchestrator docker/
```
