Body Tracker

This is the respository for the Java portion of the body tracker project.

Getting Started

Step 1: Download

Clone the repo to your computer.

git clone git@github.com:nirrek/bodyTracker.git

Step 2: IDE Files

Generate the configuration files for your IDE of choice

cd bodyTracker

# If using eclipse
./gradlew eclipse

# If using intellij idea
./gradlew idea

Note for Windows users: You need to use the gradlew.bat file rather than the gradlew file. I don't use Windows, but I assume .bat files are just a file you can easily execute on the command line.

An example of doing this for eclipse is shown below:

Step 3: Project Import

Import the project into your IDE in the way you typically would.

Building/Running The Project

Gradle should be used for all this stuff.

# build the project
./gradlew build

# run the tests
./gradlew test

# run the app
./gradlew launchApp

Deploy the application (Mac and Windows)

Generate a zip file with a .sh and a .bat script

./gradlew distZip

Note that we are using ./gradlew build rather than gradle build. This is because we are using the gradle wrapper this ensures that everyone will be executing the build script using the same version of gradle (rather than whatever the version of their system-installed binary is)
