Download an installer jar or update site zip

Red Hat CodeReady Studio is the productization project for JBoss Tools. It can be downloaded in binary form from here:

Build Red Hat CodeReady Studio

Building Red Hat CodeReady Studio requires Java 8 and Maven 3.5.

See JBoss Tools Build FAQ for Maven configuration and other tips.

To build product features, site, and installers:

cd jbdevstudio-product; mvn clean verify -DBUILD_ALIAS=GA

Install Red Hat CodeReady Studio

After a successful build, two or more artifacts are produced:

  • installer jar(s)

  • update site (also known as a p2 repository)

Installer jar(s) will be produced in installer/target/ and can be installed with:

java -jar devstudio-*.jar

An unpacked update site, which can be used to perform an initial install or to install updates to a previous installation, can be found in site/target/repository/.

The installer jar can be used as an archived update site. Launch Eclipse or Red Hat CodeReady Studio, then select:

Help > Install New Software... > Add... > Archive... >
  Browse for the Red Hat CodeReady Studio installer jar > OK >
    Work with: jar:file:/path/to/devstudio-*-installer-*.jar!/ >
      Install the Red Hat CodeReady Studio feature(s) >
        Restart when prompted.

Or, to install the "Bring Your Own Eclipse" category or "Core Features" feature into Eclipse (not as an update to an existing Red Hat CodeReady Studio install):

  • Help > Install from the generated site in site/target/repository/ (or the installer jar, as noted above

  • Select the ‘Red Hat CodeReady Studio (Core Features)’ feature

Update Red Hat CodeReady Studio

To update from one version of Red Hat CodeReady Studio on the same stream to another (eg., from Red Hat CodeReady Studio 12.0 to 12.x):

  • Help > Install from the generated site in site/target/repository/ (or the installer jar, as noted above)

  • Uncheck the box for ‘Group items by category’

  • Select the ‘Red Hat CodeReady Studio (Branded Product)’ feature
