Note

If you do not place the Vitro code in a sibling directory called "Vitro", then you will have to supply the "vitro-core" property to Maven - e.g. mvn package -Dvitro-core=~/Vitro

It is expected that the Maven project numbers are kept in sync between the Vitro / VIVO projects, however, depending on when you update / sync your repositories, you may need to adjust the project version numbers for the build to work.

Preparing the Installation Settings

In order to fully install VIVO, you need to create a settings file that provides some essential information:

app-name

vivo-dir

tomcat-dir

This file needs to be created following the Maven Settings Reference. A template file has already exists in the "installer" directory within the VIVO project, called "default-settings.xml". You may copy this file (it can be called anything you like), and edit the contents to fit your requirements / system configuration.

Installing VIVO

Once you have an appropriate settings file (these instructions will assume that you are using installer/default-settings.xml - replace this with your actual file), you simply need to run Maven, specifying the install goal, and your settings file.
