## :information_source: Source Code of OpenEMM:

The source code of OpenEMM can be found here, in this GitHub repository.

### :construction_worker: Building the Runtime:

The files in directory `runtime` provide a runtime environment for OpenEMM and tool **OST** (OpenEMM Support Tool) in subdirectory `bin`. **OST** helps you to install, update and administrate OpenEMM. Just copy the content of directory `runtime` to `/home/openemm/` on your server and start **OST** with `/home/openemm/bin/OST.sh`.

You can either use **OST** to download the executable OpenEMM tarballs provided by the original OpenEMM developer AGNITAS, or you can build the executable code yourself as described below.

### ⚙️ Building the Backend:

This should be done on a server with the same Linux operating system as the server where OpenEMM will be deployed:

`$ git clone https://github.com/agnitas-org/openemm`

`$ cd openemm/backend`

`$ chmod 755 build-backend.py`

`$ ./build-backend.py`

This creates the OpenEMM backend tarball in the current directory. Copy this tarball to the home directory of OpenEMM, unpack the tarball and create a symlink:

`cp openemm-backend-{version}.tar.gz /home/openemm`

`cd /home/openemm/release/backend`

`tar xapf ~/openemm-backend-${version}.tar.gz`

`ln -s V${version} current`

(Replace expression {version} with the version number from the tarball file name.)

You can start the OpenEMM backend with

`/home/openemm/bin/backend.sh start`

### :computer: Building the Frontend:

Copy template files `build.properties.default`, `build-birt.properties.default` and `build-ws.properties.default` to files with names `build.properties`, `build-birt.properties` and `build-ws.properties` and adapt the paths listed in those three files to your needs. Make sure that the `appname`s you use are listed in the Host tag of your Tomcat's configuration file `server.xml`. `deploydir` is usually `/home/openemm/webapps/`. `deploytarget` should be left unchanged..

Build the executable code with

`$ cd openemm/frontend`

`$ ant -f build.xml`

`$ ant -f build-birt.xml`

`$ ant -f build-ws.xml`

To update the database schema, run the shell script that executes any missing database updates:

`$ /home/openemm/webapps/emm/WEB-INF/sql/mariadb/emm-mariadb-execute-missing-updates.sh dbcfg`

Finally, exceute

`$ /home/openemm/webapps/emm/WEB-INF/npm install`

to install all required npm packages.

You can start the OpenEMM frontend with

`/home/openemm/bin/emm.sh start`
