Follow the step by step guide to install Che from our binaries.

License

Che is open sourced under the Eclipse Public License 1.0.

Dependencies

• Docker 1.8+
• Maven 3.3.1+
• Java 1.8

Clone

git clone https://github.com/eclipse/che.git

If master is unstable, checkout the latest tagged version.

Build and Run

cd che/assembly
mvn clean install

# A new assembly is placed in:
cd che/assembly/assembly-main/target/eclipse-che-<version>/eclipse-che-<version>

# Executable files are:
bin/che.sh
bin/che.bat

Che will be available at localhost:8080.

Build Submodules

Building /assembly pulls already-built libraries for /core, /plugins, and /dashboard from our Nexus repository.

To build core:

# Install maven-patch-plugin as an additional dependency.
cd che/core

# Windows: maven-patch-plugin does not work, so skip tests when building:
# See: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-patch-plugin/faq.html#Why_doesnt_this_work_on_Windows
mvn -DskipTests=true -Dfindbugs.skip=true  -Dskip-validate-sources clean install

To build plugins:

cd che/plugins
mvn clean install

To build dashboard:

# You need NPM, Bower, and Gulp installed.
# See setup in /dashboard
cd che/dashboard
mvn clean install

Run Che as a Server

If you want to run Che as a server where non-localhost clients connect, there are additional flags that you may need to configure. Please see the usage documentation.
