Robotino Web Interface build

Build Webpages from Source

Robotino Web Interface consists of the server part and the webpages. The server part, mainly Fcgid, is part of Robotino Daemons. The webpages are based on SmartGWT and are developed as a separate project. The source can be found at SVN Repository.

Note: The compiled webpages are already included in the SVN repository. Therefore if you are not going to make any change, then there is no need to build the project by yourself (can go to Deploy section directly).

Setup Eclipse

• Install Eclipse (http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/).
• Install Google Plugin for Eclipse (https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/download).

Build

• Import project to your workspace
• Set classpath for smartgwt.jar and smartgwt-skin.jar (Project->Properties->Java Build Path->Libaries). These jar files can be found at the root directory of the project.
• GWT compile project

Deploy

• Set environment variable ROBOTINO_WAR_DIR as the full path of the "war" folder.
• Then build and install Robotino Daemons as instructed in Build Robotino Daemons. It will copy the whole "war" folder into the server host directory (/var/www/).
• (NOT recommended) Instead of the two steps above, you could also manually copy the "war" folder into the server host directory (/var/www/).
