Fineract is a mature platform with open APIs that provides a reliable, robust, and affordable core banking solution for financial institutions offering services to the world’s 2 billion underbanked and unbanked.
- Java >= 1.8 (Oracle JVMs have been tested)
- MySQL 5.5
You can run the required version of the database server in a container, instead of having to install it, like this:
docker run --name mysql-5.5 -p 3306:3306 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=mysql -d mysql:5.5
and stop and destroy it like this:
docker rm -f mysql-5.5
Beware that this database container database keeps its state inside the container and not on the host filesystem. It is lost when you destroy (rm) this container. This is typically fine for development. See Caveats: Where to Store Data on the database container documentation re. how to make it persistant instead of ephemeral.
Run the following commands:
./gradlew createDB -PdbName=mifosplatform-tenants./gradlew createDB -PdbName=mifostenant-default./gradlew tomcatRunWAR
The file fineract-provider/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar binary is checked into this projects's Git source repository, but won't exist in your copy of the Fineract codebase if you downloaded a released source archive from apache.org. In that case, you need to downloaded it using the commands below:
wget --no-check-certificate -P fineract-provider/gradle/wrapper https://github.com/apache/fineract/raw/develop/fineract-provider/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar
(or)
curl --insecure -L https://github.com/apache/fineract/raw/develop/fineract-provider/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar > fineract-provider/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar
- Extract the archive file to your local directory.
- Run
./gradlew rat. A report will be generated under build/reports/rat/rat-report.txt
- Extract the archive file to your local directory.
- Run
./gradlew clean waror./gradlew buildto build deployable war file which will be created at build/libs directory.
Note that if this is the first time to access MySQL DB, then you may need to reset your password.
Run the following commands, very similarly to how .travis.yml does:
./gradlew createDB -PdbName=mifosplatform-tenants./gradlew createDB -PdbName=mifostenant-default./gradlew clean integrationTest
It is possible to do a 'one-touch' installation of Fineract using docker-compose:
Prerequisites:
- docker and docker-compose installed on your machine
Installing a new Fineract instance:
- Clone the Fineract Github repository
- Run the following commands:
- docker-compose build
- docker-compose up -d
- Fineract will run at https://localhost:8443/fineract-provider
The docker-compose.yml will build the fineract container from source.
https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/fineract has a pre-built container of this project, built continously.
You can use a MySQL database from a different or remote server by passing the server's IP address to the docker finerect buid process like this:
`docker build --build-arg mysqlserver=<MySQL server IP> -t fineract:latest .`
The run it:
`docker run -d fineract:latest`

The Connector/J JDBC Driver client library from MariaDB.org, which is licensed under the LGPL, is used in development when running integration tests that use the Flyway library. That JDBC driver is however not included in and distributed with the Fineract product, and is not required to use the product. If you are developer and object to using the LGPL licensed Connector/J JDBC driver, simply do not run the integration tests that use the Flyway library. As discussed in LEGAL-462, this project therefore complies with the Apache Software Foundation third-party license policy.
The API for the Fineract-platform (project named 'Apache Fineract') is documented in the API-docs under Full API Matrix and can be viewed here.
