NAT

NAT stands for

• NodeJS
• Aria
• Tools

Requirements

• NodeJS 16

Philosophy

Actions are segmented and are not run unless needed. This allows for faster compilation when needed.

Usage

First Run

Make sure to download the certificates locally. Paste them in ~/.m2/keystore. You must have a cert.pem and a private_key.pem.

nat --init

Will install vrotsc, vropkg and vrotest globally for you... you can specify different version of btva by passing --btvaVersion=2.35.0

General

nat -b -p

This will be all you need... (TEMP)it will do mvn clean package if the target folder does not exists, since for now it still depends on it for dependencies (TEMP)

Tests

nat -t

This will test the code. You must have built it beforehand (or you can add -b to the command).

Performance

Watch Mode

In one terminal:

nat --watch --watchMs 1000

Will build the code and start recompiling only the changed file.

in a separate terminal you can run nat -p to push the code when it completes or even nat -t to run unit tests

Roadmap

• Better Certificate Handling. Certificates should only work with local paths.
• Better vrotsc/vropkg installation
• More Customizability regarding inputs
• Don't rely on initial mvn clean package
• Building Code
• Compiling Code
• Convert information about the artifact to a special lock file.
• Pushing code
• Running Tests
• Save Artifact in memory so we don't read it twice
• Improve Push Code Logic
• Only push changed files for watch mode?
• Download dependencies
• Definitions
• Code Coverage
• Push Dependencies
• Don't rely on vrotsc, vropkg and vrotest from maven central

Development

Setting Up BTVA Dependencies

• Follow the instructrions for the first run.
• run npm run dev in one terminal first
• run tsc --watch in one terminal and keep it running
