Starting a project based on Leshan

[th1j5]

Hello,

As a student group we did a project using Leshan (will comment on #830 when we are done).
We discovered that we only had to adjust a few lines from the demo server to accomplish our goals.
Now I'm wondering how I would make this a separate git/maven project (not very familiar with maven, but enough to get our server compiled).
The question is: would I

• fork this whole project (with all maven modules like leshan-server-core, leshan-client-demo etc),
• add our new directory (leshan-server-solid)
• as a copy from leshan-server-demo,
• adjust pom.xml artifactId, name and description,
• adjust some java code
• and done?

This is how I'm able to compile it right now.

I would think this a bit overkill, copying all the leshan-server-core code etc.
But I don't know another way (tried a bit experimenting, but nothing useful).

How would I go about separating our adjusted leshan-demo server as a separate git(/maven) project?

I know this question is maybe more related to using maven and pom files, but hopefully someone can help us out.

Greetings,

We discovered that we only had to adjust a few lines from the demo server to accomplish our goals.

If it makes sense, maybe the modification can be integrated in leshan-server-demo ?
If not, you want to create your own server and using leshan-server-demmo as a kind of template for your leshan-server-solid 💪 ?

I assume that you want to create a single module maven project (correct me if I'm wrong) :

• copy/paste the content of leshan-server-demo in your project.
  and this should be OK.

Here is a single module maven project but for leshan client side.
Tell me if this is not clear ?

Thank you for the quick response,
I succeeded with the help of your link to indeed create a single module maven project (this was exactly what I wanted to do)
It was a bit difficult for me to untangle the parent and child pom of the leshan-server-demo template, but it worked.

I opened issue #845 to propose the modification (but I'm not sure how well coded it is)

Should we close this issue ?

yes, I just wanted to add this link https://github.com/th1j5/leshan-server-solid
in case someone (with little maven experience) ever wants to see the pom of a standalone leshan server module.
