D.4. How to Build the Book

You know what, this book doesn’t really have a "build" as much as it has a collection of light-weight bash scripts which are used to invoke Asciidoc and a2x. If you are interested in building the book, we’ve had good success on Mac OSX and Ubuntu. Any other operation system and you are on your own.

  • Clone the book’s Git repository. To clone this book’s repository execute the following command at a command-line:
$ git clone git@github.com:sonatype/nexus-book.git
...a bunch of Git output...

Running this command will create a sub-directory named nexus-book which is a copy of this book’s source.

  • ./build.sh

This will create a single-page HTML version, a chunked HTML version, and a PDF version of the book.
