Building JCloisterZone from source

Don't hesitate to ask if there are any problems with the explanations below!

Dependencies

Package the latest version of the master branch.

cd your-development-folder    # Your own preference.
                              # Get farin's fork of WebSockets.
git clone https://github.com/farin/Java-WebSocket.git
cd Java-WebSocket
mvn install                   # Install the WebSockets fork version.
cd - >/dev/null

                              # Get JCloisterZone.
git clone https://github.com/farin/JCloisterZone.git
cd JCloisterZone
mvn package                   # Create the main and plugin jar files.

open build/JCloisterZone.jar  # Execute the game.

Running in Eclipse

  1. Clone the code from https://github.com/farin/JCloisterZone.git
  2. "Import..." the "JCloisterZone" project as an "Existing Maven project" from disk.
  3. Right click the project and select "Update project..." from the Maven menu.
  4. Run the project as a java application; select JCloisterZone (com.jcloisterzone.ui.JCloisterZone) as the main class.

Troubleshooting

Can't find $JAVA_HOME or java compiler version errors.

Maybe $JAVA_HOME was not set correctly. Try running export JAVA_HOME="`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7`" before running mvn in the same terminal window.

Can't find msgfmt so there are warnings for each language during mvn package.

Maybe gettext wasn't in your $PATH. Try installing/finding it on your harddrive, then add it to your path variable.

Development guide

Helpers for more pleasant development and application debugging.

VM arguments and system properties

JCloisterZone supports various system properties to help development

  • config=foo.yaml - use custom yaml configuration file
  • errorLog=false - don't save error log to file
  • closeGameConfirm=false - close game withiu showing confirmation dialog
  • nick=Bob - force default nickname for play online
  • forceChat=true - enable chat window for local games
  • allowAiOnlyOnlineGame=true - allows online game without human players (must be allowed also by server)
  • allowHotSeatOnlineGame=true - allows online game with multiple human players from one client
  • org.slf4j.simpleLogger.defaultLogLevel=info - set log level
  • transparentScreenshots=true - don't fill screenshot background
  • windowSize=L - overrides config valus (eg 1024x768, or special values L or R)

Command line example:

java -jar JCloisterZone.jar -Dconfig=debug.yaml -DerrorLog=false -Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.defaultLogLevel=info -DforceChat=true -DcloseGameConfirm=false -ea

debug.yaml

Tweaked config.yaml

Use unpacked plugins from source.

plugins:
  - plugins/classic
  - plugins/rgg_siege

For immediately AI play comment delay option.

# ai_place_tile_delay: 250

Debug options

Use debug options for quick and repeatable game setup with following possible options

debug:
  # use some keys described below ...

Autosave before each AI play.

autosave: saves/_prerank.jcz

Skip game config dialog, player is name or AI class. You can comment just preset key to disable whole autostart.

autostart:
  preset: default
  players:
    - Alice
    - Bob
    - com.jcloisterzone.ai.legacyplayer.LegacyAiPlayer
    - com.jcloisterzone.ai.DummyAiPlayer

Developing expansion, don't bother with basic tiles. Override any expansion with own set definition.

tile_definitions:
  BASIC: tile-definitions/basic-1card.xml

Force drawn tiles.

game_annotation:
  tilePack:
    className: "com.jcloisterzone.debug.ForcedDrawTilePack"
    params:
      drawOrder: ["BA.C", "BA.C", "BA.C"]

Final scoring can be forced by #END at end of the params list.

draw:
# ... some tiles ...
- .

Experimental options

off_capabilities: [ Dragon, Fairy ]
area_highlight: figure
