Spring Batch Extensions
=============================
The Spring Batch Extensions project provides extension modules for the [Spring Batch Project][]. This project is part of the [Spring organization][] on GitHub.
## Available Modules
## Samples
Under the `samples` directory, you will find samples for the various modules. Please refer to the documentation of each sample for further details.
## Getting support
Check out the [spring-batch][spring-batch tag] tag
on [Stack Overflow][]. [Commercial support][] is available too.
## Related GitHub projects
* [Spring Batch][]
* [Spring Batch Admin][]
* [Spring XD][]
* [Spring for Apache Hadoop][]
* [Spring Boot][]
## Issue Tracking
Report issues via the Spring Batch Extensions [GitHub Issue Tracker][].
## Building from source
Each module of the *Spring Batch Extensions* project is hosted as independent project with its own release cycle. For the build process of individual modules we recomend using a [Maven][] build system modelled after the [Spring Batch][] project.
Therefore, the following build instructions should generally apply for most, if not all, *Spring Batch Extensions*. In the instructions below, `mvn` is invoked from the root of the source tree and serves as a cross-platform, self-contained bootstrap mechanism for the build. The only prerequisites are [Git][] and JDK 1.6+.
### Check out the sources
`git clone git://github.com/spring-projects/spring-batch-extensions.git`
### Go into the directory of a specific module
`cd spring-batch-extensions`
`cd module-name`
### Compile and test, build all jars
`mvn clean package`
### Install the modules jars into your local Maven cache
`mvn install`
## Import sources into your IDE
### Using Eclipse / STS
When using [Spring Tool Suite] you can directly import Maven based projects:
`File -> Import -> Maven Project`
Alternatively, you can also generate the Eclipse metadata (.classpath and .project files) using Maven:
`mvn eclipse:eclipse`
Once complete, you may then import the projects into Eclipse as usual:
`File -> Import -> Existing projects into workspace`
### Using IntelliJ IDEA
To generate IDEA metadata (.iml and .ipr files), do the following:
mvn idea:idea
