Description Ben Browning 2012-08-20 15:42:32 UTC 
TorqueBox ships a settings.xml that points to the maven repositories needed to build TorqueBox from source. Document how to build TorqueBox using this settings.xml so that the necessary gems (activerecord, rails, json, rack, etc) can be downloaded externally via maven.
Comment 3 Marek Novotny 2012-09-24 13:52:17 UTC 
We need to document somewhere in TB documentation this:

---------------------------------
Maven setup

Building of TorqueBox uses the Maven build system. Maven pulls dependencies from repositories through the course of the build. You must configure Maven to be aware of the exploded JBoss WFK repository by creating or adjusting your $HOME/.m2/settings.xml.

The JBoss WFK distribution of Maven repository includes an example of settings.xml that you may use directly from the commandline, or integrate into your personal settings.xml.

You'll also need to give Maven extra memory for the build by setting the MAVEN_OPTS environment variable.

export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m"
----------------------------------

It should also contain a paragraph stating you need to enable JBoss Nexus repository.
