#Flexmojos Introduction: Usage instructions This collection of examples provides some simple introductions to using Flexmojos.
For each project you can build via:
mvn clean install
This will create a SWF in the target
folder of the respective diretory.
##Versions Flexmojos target: 4.0-RC2. Checkout the full plugin info.
Flex SDK: 4.5.1.21328
##Project breakdown
###1. Simple This is an extremely simple project, designed simply as an example to get started.
###2. UnitTests This adds on a single unit test to the simple project.
Note: In order to run the unit tests, Flexmojos needs to be able to find the Flashplayer executable. You should ensure Flashplayer (Flash Player
on OS X and Flashplayer.exe
on WinX) is available on your PATH. You can download the standalone Flashplayer Projector from Adobe. In Windows, you can copy Flashplayer.exe to some location and add it to your PATH via My Computer > Advanced > Environment Variables
. On OS X, I installed Flash Player
to usr/local/bin
and added the following to my ~/.bash_profile
export FLASH_PLAYER='/usr/local/bin/Flash Player.app/Contents/MacOS'
export PATH=${M2_HOME}/bin:$FLASH_PLAYER:${PATH}
For more information, check out this post.
###3. Dependencies
This adds on a simple third party dependency to the simple project. In order to build this, you must first install
the as3-signals dependency (see above).
To install the third party dependency, you need to run the following command from the project root:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=./libs/as3-signals-0.8.swc -DgroupId=org.osflash -DartifactId=as3-signals -Dversion=0.8 -Dpackaging=swc
This will add the SWC to your local repository to ensure Maven can find it whenever it encounters the dependency.
For more information on as3-signals, checkout the project home.
###4. Flashbuilder Goal This combines the unit tests and dependencies project.
Try generating a Flashbuilder project via the following Maven command:
mvn org.sonatype.flexmojos:flexmojos-maven-plugin:3.9:flashbuilder
###5. Archetypes This is a collection of commands to generate simple starter projects for Flexmojos.
###6. Libraries This project splits the functionality of the other projects into an application SWF and a library SWC.
