Getting Set Up to Use Cloud Foundry

Required

  • Setup a Pivotal Web Services trial account
  • Install the Cloud Foundry Command Line Interface

Optional

Installing and Setting Up Spring Tool Suite

  1. Install Spring Tool Suite

  2. Install Cloud Foundry Integration with STS

    • Within STS, go to Help > Install New Software and search for "Cloud Foundry". Install the two packages that appear (Core / Cloud Foundry Integration and Resources / Cloud Foundry Integration). Note that the install process may take a while, and STS will need to be restarted for the changes to take effect.

  3. Import projects into STS

    • Install samples and partially-completed projects into your workspace. Run the following command in your Mac OS X Terminal:
    git clone https://github.com/s2edu/cloudfoundrystudentfiles

    • From the project explorer, right click: Import > Maven > Existing Maven Projects

    • Navigate to the folder where you extracted the student files (step 3a) and Finish. Note that depending on the version of STS / Eclipse, your version of Java, and other factors, you may encounter errors. These will need to be fixed on a case-by-case basis. This may take a while.
