-== Build APEX
-
-The examples in this document assume that the APEX source repositories are cloned to:
-
-- Unix, Cygwin: `/usr/local/src/apex-pdp`
-- Windows: `C:\dev\apex-pdp`
-- Cygwin: `/cygdrive/c/dev/apex-pdp`
-
-[IMPORTANT]
-.A Build requires ONAP Nexus
-====
-APEX has a dependency to ONAP parent projects.
-You might need to adjust your Maven M2 settings.
-The most current settings can be found in the ONAP oparent repo: link:https://git.onap.org/oparent/plain/settings.xml[Settings].
-====
-
-[IMPORTANT]
-.A Build needs Space
-====
-Building APEX requires approximately 2-3 GB of hard disc space, 1 GB for the actual build with full distribution and 1-2 GB for the downloaded dependencies
-====
-
-[IMPORTANT]
-.A Build requires Internet (for first build)
-====
-During the build, several (a lot) of Maven dependencies will be downloaded and stored in the configured local Maven repository.
-The first standard build (and any first specific build) requires Internet access to download those dependencies.
-====
-
-[IMPORTANT]
-.Building RPM distributions
-====
-RPM images are only build if the `rpm` package is installed (Unix).
-To install `rpm` run `sudo apt-get install rpm`, then build APEX.
-====
-
-Use Maven to for a standard build without any tests.

-== System Configuration
-Once APEX is installed, a few configurations need to be done:
-
-- Create an APEX user and an APEX group (optional, if not installed using RPM and DPKG)
-- Create environment settings for `APEX_HOME` and `APEX_USER`, required by the start scripts
-- Change settings of the logging framework (optional)
-- Create directories for logging, required (execution might fail if directories do not exist or cannot be created)
-
-=== APEX User and Group
-On smaller installations and test systems, APEX can run as any user or group.
-
-However, if APEX is installed in production, we strongly recommend you set up a dedicated user for running APEX.
-This will isolate the execution of APEX to that user.
-We recommend you use the userid `apexuser` but you may use any user you choose.
-
-The following example, for UNIX, creates a group called `apexuser`, an APEX user called `apexuser`, adds the group to the user, and changes ownership of the APEX installation to the user.
-Substitute `<apex-dir>` with the directory where APEX is installed.
-
-[source%nowrap,sh,numbered]
-----
-# sudo groupadd apexuser
-# sudo useradd -g apexuser apexuser
-# sudo chwon -R apexuser:apexuser <apex-dir>
-----
-
-For other operating systems please consult your manual or system administrator.
-
-
-=== Environment Settings: APEX_HOME and APEX_USER
-The provided start scripts for APEX require two environment variables being set:
-
-- `APEX_USER` with the user under whos name and permission APEX should be started (Unix only)
-- `APEX_HOME` with the directory where APEX is installed (Unix, Windows, Cygwin)
-
-The first row in the following table shows how to set these environment variables temporary (assuming the user is `apexuser`).
-The second row shows how to verify the settings.
-The last row explains how to set those variables permanently.

-APEX_HOME=\apex\apex-full-{release-version}
-----
-
-|====================
-
-
-==== Making Environment Settings Permanent (Unix, Cygwin)
-For a per-user setting, edit the a user's `bash` or `tcsh` settings in `~/.bashrc` or `~/.tcshrc`.
-For system-wide settings, edit `/etc/profiles` (requires permissions).
-
-
-==== Making Environment Settings Permanent (Windows)
-On Windows 7 do
-
-- Click on the *Start* Menu
-- Right click on *Computer*
-- Select *Properties*
-
-On Windows 8/10 do
-
-- Click on the *Start* Menu
-- Select *System*
-
-Then do the following
-
-- Select *Advanced System Settings*
-- On the *Advanced* tab, click the *Environment Variables* button
-- Edit an existing variable, or create a new System variable: 'Variable name'="APEX_HOME", 'Variable value'="C:\apex\apex-full-{release-version}"
-
-For the settings to take effect, an application needs to be restarted (e.g. any open `cmd` window).
-
-
-
-=== Edit the APEX Logging Settings
-Configure the APEX logging settings to your requirements, for instance:
-
-- change the directory where logs are written to, or
-- change the log levels
-
-Edit the file `$APEX_HOME/etc/logback.xml` for any required changes.
-To change the log directory change the line
-
-`<property name="VAR_LOG" value="/var/log/onap/policy/apex-pdp/" />`
-
-to
-
-`<property name="VAR_LOG" value="/PATH/TO/LOG/DIRECTORY/" />`
-
-On Windows, it is recommended to change the log directory to:
-
-`<property name="VAR_LOG" value="C:/apex/apex-full-{release-version}/logs" />`
-
-Note: Be careful about when to use `\` vs. `/` as the path separator!
-
-
-=== Create Directories for Logging
-Make sure that the log directory exists.
-This is important when APEX was installed manually or when the log directory was changed in the settings (see above).

-== Installing WAR Applications
-APEX comes with a set of WAR files.
-These are complete applications that can be installed and run in an application server.
-All of these applications are realized as servlets.
-You can find the WAR applications in `$APEX_HOME/war` (UNIX, Cygwin) or `%APEX_HOME%\war` (Windows).
-
-Installing and using the WAR applications requires a web server that can execute `war` web archives.
-We recommend to use link:https://tomcat.apache.org/[Apache Tomcat], however other web servers can be used as well.
-
-Install Apache Tomcat including the `Manager App`, see link:https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Configuring_Manager_Application_Access[V9.0 Docs] for details.
-Start the Tomcat service, or make sure that Tomcat is running.
-
-There are multiple ways to install the APEX WAR applications:
-
-- copy the `.war` file into the Tomcat `webapps` folder
-- use the Tomcat `Manager App` to deploy via the web interface
-- deploy using a REST call to Tomcat
-
-For details on how to install `war` files please consult the link:https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/index.html[Tomcat Documentation] or the link:https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/manager-howto.html[Manager App HOW-TO].
-Once you installed an APEX WAR application (and wait for sufficient time for Tomcat to finalize the installation), open the `Manager App` in Tomcat.
-You should see the APEX WAR application being installed and running.
-
-In case of errors, examine the log files in the Tomcat log directory.
-In a conventional install, those log files are in the logs directory where Tomcat is installed.
-
-The current APEX version provides the following WAR applications:
-
-* client-deployment-{release-version}.war - a client to deploy new policy models to a running engine
-* client-editor-{release-version}.war - the standard policy REST editor GUI
-* client-monitoring-{release-version}.war - a client for monitoring a running APEX engine
-* client-full-{release-version}.war - a full client with a one-stop-access to deployment, monitoring, and REST editor
-* examples-servlet-{release-version}.war - an example APEX servlet

-== Install APEX
-APEX can be installed in different ways:
-
-- Unix: automatically using `rpm` or `dpkg` from `.rpm` or `.deb` archive
-- Windows, Unix, Cygwin: manually from a `.tar.gz` archive
-- Windows, Unix, Cygwin: build from source using Maven, then install manually
-
-
-=== Install with RPM and DPKG
-The install distributions of APEX automatically install the system.
-The installation directory is `/opt/app/policy/apex-pdp`.
-Log files are located in `/var/log/onap/policy/apex-pdp`.
-The latest APEX version will be available as `/opt/app/policy/apex-pdp/apex-pdp`.
-
-For the installation, a new user `apexuser` and a new group `apexuser` will be created.
-This user owns the installation directories and the log file location.
-The user is also used by the standard APEX start scripts to run APEX with this user's permissions.

-
-
-=== Install Manually from Archive (Unix, Cygwin)
-Download a `tar.gz` archive.
-Create a directory where APEX should be installed.
-Extract the `tar` archive.
-The following example shows how to install APEX in `/opt/apex` and create a link to `/opt/apex/apex` for the most recent installation.
-
-[source%nowrap,sh,numbered,subs="attributes+"]
-----
-# cd /opt

-# ln -s apex apex-pdp-package-full-{release-version}
-----
-
-
-=== Install Manually from Archive (Windows, 7Zip, GUI)
-Download a `tar.gz` archive and copy the file into the install folder (in this example `C:\apex`).
-Assuming you are using 7Zip, right click on the file and extract the `tar` archive.
-Note: the screenshots might show an older version than you have.
-
-image::install-guide/win-extract-tar-gz.png[Extract the TAR archive]
-
-The right-click on the new created TAR file and extract the actual APEX distribution.
-
-image::install-guide/win-extract-tar.png[Extract the APEX distribution]
-
-Inside the new APEX folder you see the main directories: `bin`, `etc`, `examples`, `lib`, and `war`
-
-Once extracted, please rename the created folder to `apex-full-{release-version}`.
-This will keep the directory name in line with the rest of this documentation.
-
-
-=== Install Manually from Archive (Windows, 7Zip, CMD)
-Download a `tar.gz` archive and copy the file into the install folder (in this example `C:\apex`).
-Start `cmd`, for instance typing `Windows+R` and then `cmd` in the dialog.
-Assuming `7Zip` is installed in the standard folder, simply run the following commands (for APEX version {release-version} full distribution)
-
-[source%nowrap,bat,numbered,subs="attributes+"]
-----

-----
-
-APEX is now installed in the folder `C:\apex\apex-full-{release-version}`.
-
-
-
-== Build from Source
-
-=== Build and Install Manually (Unix, Windows, Cygwin)
-Clone the APEX GIT repositories into a directory.
-Go to that directory.
-Use Maven to build APEX (all details on building APEX from source can be found in __APEX HowTo: Build__).
-Install from the created artifacts (`rpm`, `deb`, `tar.gz`, or copying manually).
-
-[IMPORTANT]
-.Building RPM distributions
-====
-RPM images are only build if the `rpm` package is installed (Unix).
-To install `rpm` run `sudo apt-get install rpm`, then build APEX.
-====
-
-The following example shows how to build the APEX system, without tests (`-DskipTests`) to safe some time.
-It assumes that the APX GIT repositories are cloned to:
-
-- Unix, Cygwin: `/usr/local/src/apex`
-- Windows: `C:\dev\apex`
-
-

-----
-|====================
-
-The build takes about 2 minutes without test and about 4-5 minutes with tests on a standard development laptop.
-It should run through without errors, but with a lot of messages from the build process.
-If build with tests (i.e. without `-DskipTests`), there will be error messages and stack trace prints from some tests.
-This is normal, as long as the build finishes successful.
-
-When Maven is finished with the build, the final screen should look similar to this (omitting some `success` lines):

-== Verify the APEX Installation
-When APEX is installed and all settings are realized, the installation can be verified.
-
-=== Verify Installation - run Engine
-A simple verification of an APEX installation can be done by simply starting the APEX engine without any configuration.
-On Unix (or Cygwin) start the engine using `$APEX_HOME/bin/apexEngine.sh`.
-On Windows start the engine using `%APEX_HOME%\bin\apexEngine.bat`.
-The engine will fail to fully start.
-However, if the output looks similar to the following line, the APEX installation is realized.

-
-=== Verify Installation - run an Example
-A full APEX installation comes with several examples.
-Here, we can fully verify the installation by running one of the examples.
-
-We use the example called _SampleDomain_ and configure the engine to use standard in and standard out for events.
-Run the engine with the provided configuration.
-Note: Cygwin executes scripts as Unix scripts but runs Java as a Windows application, thus the configuration file must be given as a Windows path.

-
-Important are the last two line, stating that APEX has added the final action listener to the engine and that the engine is started.
-
-The engine is configured to read events from standard input and write produced events to standard output.
-The policy model is a very simple policy.
-
-The following table shows an input event in the left column and an output event in the right column.
-Past the input event into the console where APEX is running, and the output event should appear in the console.
-Pasting the input event multiple times will produce output events with different values.

-
-
-=== Verify a Full Installation - REST Editor
-APEX has a REST application for viewing policy models.
-The application can also be used to create new policy models close to the engine native policy language.
-Start the REST editor as follows.
-
-[source%nowrap,sh,numbered]
-----
-# $APEX_HOME/bin/apexApps.sh rest-editor
-----
-
-[source%nowrap,bat,numbered]
-----
->%APEX_HOME%\bin\apexApps.bat rest-editor
-----
-
-The script will start a simple web server (link:https://javaee.github.io/grizzly/[Grizzly]) and deploy a `war` web archive in it.
-Once the editor is started, it will be available on `localhost:18989`.
-The last few line of the messages should be:
-
-[source%nowrap,sh,numbered]
-----
-Apex Editor REST endpoint (ApexEditorMain: Config=[ApexEditorParameters: URI=http://localhost:18989/apexservices/, TTL=-1sec], State=READY) starting at http://localhost:18989/apexservices/ . . .
-Sep 05, 2018 10:35:57 PM org.glassfish.grizzly.http.server.NetworkListener start
-INFO: Started listener bound to [localhost:18989]

-INFO: [HttpServer] Started.
-Apex Editor REST endpoint (ApexEditorMain: Config=[ApexEditorParameters: URI=http://localhost:18989/apexservices/, TTL=-1sec], State=RUNNING) started at http://localhost:18989/apexservices/
-----
-
-Now open a browser (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Internet Explorer) and use the URL `http://localhost:18989/`.
-This will connect the browser to the started REST editor.
-The start screen should be as follows.
-
-.REST Editor Start Screen
-image::install-guide/rest-start.png[REST Editor Start Screen]
-
-Now load a policy model by clicking the menu `File` and then `Open`.
-In the opened dialog, go to the directory where APEX is installed, then `examples`, `models`, `SampleDomain`, and there select the file `SamplePolicyModelJAVA.json`.
-This will load the policy model used to verify the policy engine (see above).
-Once loaded, the screen should look as follows.
-
-.REST Editor with loaded SampleDomain Policy Model
-image::install-guide/rest-loaded.png[REST Editor with loaded SampleDomain Policy Model]
-
-Now you can use the REST editor.
-To finish this verification, simply terminate your browser (or the tab), and then use `CTRL+C` in the console where you started the REST editor.
