Contributing

Setting up development environment

• Install Java 17 or higher
• Fork the BlockBall project on github and clone it to your local environment.
• BlockBall requires spigot server implementations from 1.16 to 1.18.2 to be correctly installed in your local Maven cache. As this requires multiple java version to build different versions, a Dockerfile is provided to build these dependencies in a docker container and then copy it to your local Maven cache.

Note: If using Windows, execute the commands using Git Bash.

mkdir -p ~/.m2/repository/org/spigotmc/
docker build --target dependencies-jdk8 -t blockball-dependencies-jdk8 .
docker create --name blockball-dependencies-jdk8 blockball-dependencies-jdk8 bash
docker cp blockball-dependencies-jdk8:/root/.m2/repository/org/spigotmc ~/.m2/repository/org/
docker rm -f blockball-dependencies-jdk8
docker build --target dependencies-jdk17 -t blockball-dependencies-jdk17 .
docker create --name blockball-dependencies-jdk17 blockball-dependencies-jdk17 bash
docker cp blockball-dependencies-jdk17:/root/.m2/repository/org/spigotmc ~/.m2/repository/org/
docker rm -f blockball-dependencies-jdk17
