Compiling

You can compile WorldEdit as long as you have the Java Development Kit (JDK) for Java 8 or newer. You only need one version of the JDK installed.

The build process uses Gradle, which you do not need to download. WorldEdit is a multi-module project with four modules:

• worldedit-core contains the WorldEdit API
• worldedit-bukkit is the Bukkit plugin
• worldedit-sponge is the Sponge plugin
• worldedit-forge is the Forge mod

To compile...

On Windows

1. Shift + right click the folder with WorldEdit's files and click "Open command prompt".
2. gradlew clean setupDecompWorkspace
3. gradlew build

On Linux, BSD, or Mac OS X

1. In your terminal, navigate to the folder with WorldEdit's files (cd /folder/of/worldedit/files)
2. ./gradlew clean setupDecompWorkspace
3. ./gradlew build

Then you will find...

You will find:

• The core WorldEdit API in worldedit-core/build/libs
• WorldEdit for Bukkit in worldedit-bukkit/build/libs
• WorldEdit for Sponge in worldedit-sponge/build/libs
• WorldEdit for Forge in worldedit-forge/build/libs

If you want to use WorldEdit, use the -dist version.

(The -dist version includes WorldEdit + necessary libraries.)

Note regarding setupDecompWorkspace

setupDecompWorkspace requires more memory than is usually given to Gradle by default. If it fails, you should put org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx3G in gradle.properties. Please don't commit this change!

Other commands

• gradlew idea will generate an IntelliJ IDEA module for each folder.
• gradlew eclipse will generate an Eclipse project for each folder.
• Use setupCIWorkspace instead of setupDecompWorkspace if you are doing this on a CI server.
