The following steps will ensure your project is cloned properly.

1. git clone --recursive https://github.com/SpongePowered/SpongeCommon.git
2. cd SpongeCommon
3. cp scripts/pre-commit .git/hooks

Note: SpongeCommon uses Gradle as its build system. The repo includes the Gradle wrapper that will automatically download the correct Gradle version. Local installations of Gradle may work but are untested. To execute the Gradle wrapper, run the ./gradlew script on Unix systems or only gradlew on Windows systems.

Before you are able to build SpongeCommon, you must first prepare the environment:

• Run ./gradlew setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies

For Eclipse

1. Run ./gradlew eclipse
2. Import SpongeCommon as an existing project (File > Import > General)
3. Select the root folder for SpongeCommon and make sure Search for nested projects is enabled
4. Check SpongeCommon when it finishes building and click Finish

For IntelliJ

1. Make sure you have the Gradle plugin enabled (File > Settings > Plugins).
2. Click File > New > Project from Existing Sources > Gradle and select the root folder for SpongeCommon.
3. Make sure Use default gradle wrapper is selected. Older/newer Gradle versions may work but we only test using the wrapper.

Note: You must Setup the environment before you can build SpongeCommon.

In order to build SpongeCommon you simply need to run the gradlew command. On Windows systems you should run gradlew instead of ./gradlew to invoke the Gradle wrapper. You can find the compiled JAR files in ./build/libs.

The following steps will update your clone with the official repo.

1. git pull
2. git submodule update --recursive
3. ./gradlew setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies
