Chatter (working title) is a forum for users to post about anything they choose. Users will see posts from other users who share something in common with them, thereby creating an automatically-curated feed of live posts that might interest each user.
This project supports the use of Apache Maven for compiling source and running unit tests. The installation of Apache Maven is a simple process of extracting the archive and adding the bin folder with the mvn command to the PATH. See documentation here.
Apache Maven may also be installed easily using Homebrew: $ brew install maven
After following the installation instructions, navigate to the base project directory and run
$ mvn compile
After following the installation instructions, navigate to the base project directory and run
$ mvn test
After following the installation instructions, navigate to the base project directory and run
$ mvn compile exec:java
This will build any recent changes and then start the interactive CLI for Chatter.
