winget install --id=Codelerity.NetBeans -e Apache NetBeans is much more than a text editor. It highlights source code syntactically and semantically, lets you easily refactor code, with a range of handy and powerful tools.
This repository contains a configuration and build system for packages of Apache NetBeans. It can be forked, edited and reused for building packages of NetBeans bundled with a JDK runtime of choice.
Links and hashes of Apache NetBeans, the bundled JDK runtimes, and the
NBPackage tool are configured
in the build.properties file. This file also contains the version number to
write into each package. Other configuration for individual packages is
included in the config files passed in to NBPackage.
Packages are built using the workflow at .github/workflows/build.yaml. This
workflow is triggered manually from the Actions/Build page using the
Run workflow button and selecting the required packages.
The workflow uses the Exec.java single source file to download and verify the
required files, as well as to configure and execute NBPackage. All downloads are
verified against the hashes provided in the build.properties file.
If a release tag is provided when triggering the workflow, installers will be uploaded to this release. If no release tag is provided, the installers will be uploaded as workflow artefacts, and can be found in zip files on the workflow output page. Any release tag must correspond to an already created release, although this may be in draft form.
The workflow will optionally sign Windows and macOS installers during the build if the relevant repository secrets and variables have been defined. Signing is triggered by the presence of certain variables (marked) - all related secrets must then be defined.
APP_CERT_ID : the name of the Apple Developer Application Certificate passed
in to codesign during the macOS installer build. Presence of this variable
triggers signing, and all other related macOS variables and secrets must be
added.AZURE_CERT_PROFILE_NAME : the name of the certificate profile used by the
Azure Artifact Signing action during the Windows installer build. Presence of
this variable triggers signing, and all other related Windows secrets must be
added.INST_CERT_ID : the name of the Apple Developer Installer Certificate passed
in to pkgbuild during the macOS installer build.APP_CERT_BASE64 : the Apple Developer Application Certificate exported as
base64 (see related GitHub documentation). Required for macOS
installer signing.APP_CERT_PASSWORD : password for the Apple Developer Application Certificate.
Required for macOS installer signing.AZURE_CLIENT_ID : the azure-client-id parameter for the Azure Artifact
Signing action. Required for Windows installer signing.AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET : the azure-client-secret parameter for the Azure
Artifact Signing action. Required for Windows installer signing.AZURE_CODE_SIGNING_NAME : the signing-account-name parameter for the Azure
Artifact Signing action. Required for Windows installer signing.AZURE_ENDPOINT : the endpoint parameter for the Azure Artifact Signing
action. Required for Windows installer signing.AZURE_TENANT_ID : the azure-tenant-id parameter for the Azure Artifact
Signing action. Required for Windows installer signing.INST_CERT_BASE64 : the Apple Developer Installer Certificate exported as
base64. Required for macOS installer signing.INST_CERT_PASSWORD : password for the Apple Developer Installer Certificate.
Required for macOS installer signing.The macOS packages will be code signed in the build if the relevant secrets and ID variables are added to the GitHub repository. For public distribution the files must be downloaded, notarized and stapled. Optional support for doing this in the workflow will be added at a later date.
