==Setting up the development tools==
On a BigBlueButton server, you can install all the necessary development tools with the following command:
<source lang="bash">
bbb-conf --setup-dev tools
</source>
When you run this script, you will be asked to enter your password to sudo into root. This script will:
Download and setup groovy, grails, and gradle
Download and install Open Source Flex SDK
Install OpenJDK
Install git
Add the necessary environment variables in your ~/.profile
After the initial setup is complete, you'll need to reload your .profile to use the new environment variables for groovy, grails, and gradle. To do this, run
<source lang="bash">
source ~/.profile
</source>
You need only do this once. When you next login to your account, you'll have the environment variables in place.
Again, you can use any account on a BigBlueButton server that has sudo rights. For the rest of this document we'll use the account firstuser for the examples.
The bbb-conf script create for you a dev directory in your account.
<source lang="bash">
/home/firstuser/dev
</source>
It's in this directory that you'll place the source for BigBlueButton.
