cn1-deploy

CLI tool for deploying Codename One applications

Requirements

1. JDK 8 or higher
2. NodeJS 4.2 or higher

Installation

$ npm install cn1-deploy -g

NOTE: On unix/linux/Mac systems you'll need to use sudo for the command. On Windows this command should work as long as your are using an admin account.

Usage

Open terminal and navigate to a Codename One project directory.

Initializing a Desktop Project

$ cn1-deploy init javase

This creates a folder "cn1-deployments/javase" with a package.json file with all of the settings necessary to build and deploy the app for Desktops.

Building the App for Desktop

$ cn1-deploy build javase

The first time this is run, this will submit a job to the Codename One build server to generate the desktop app. When complete, the app you will have an executable jar ready to run in "cn1-deployments/javase/dist".

Installing the App on Local Machine

$ cn1-deploy install javase

This will bundle the app and make it so it can be run on the command line of the local machine when the user enters the command name.

Publishing App to NPM

$ cn1-deploy publish javase

This will publish your app on NPM so that it can be installed on any machine that has NodeJS installed via the one-line command:

$ npm install your-app-name

and then will be runnable immediately via:

$ your-command-name
