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 Git CLI to checkout the desired version from GitHub.

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

git clone https://github.com/esacinc/dcdt ~/dcdt

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

cd ~/dcdt

git checkout dcdt-3.1.2-RELEASE

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

Then, checkout your forked version of the repository, by running the following:

git clone https://github.com/<your username>/dcdt ~/dcdt
