Introduction

This guide details the process for installing the Direct Certificate Discovery Tool (DCDT, or the Tool) from a version of the source code.

Requirements

See the System Requirements Install Guide for instructions on how to prepare your system prior to installation of the Tool.

Building the Tool

The following steps are to check out the release tag and build the source code.

Checkout the Sources

Use the Mercurial CLI to checkout the desired version.

To clone the repository and checkout the tip (newest revision of the default branch), run the following:

hg clone https://code.google.com/p/direct-certificate-discovery-tool/ ~/dcdt

Typically, the latest stable release tag should be used for deployments. To checkout this tag, run the following:

To build all of the Maven projects that comprise the Tool, run the following:

cd ~/dcdt/
mvn -DskipChecks=true -DskipTests=true clean install

Checkout the Sources for Development

To checkout the trunk for development (project membership required), the tip needs to be checked out by running the following:

hg clone https://code.google.com/p/direct-certificate-discovery-tool/ ~/dcdt
