Modules

Bearsampp offers several versions of the various binaries, applications and tools for download:

Installation

Use a file archiver that supports 7z format like 7zip and extract the archive where you want.

You should not have any white-spaces in the path to Bearsampp as that will cause problems on some modules.

Configuration

Before starting Bearsampp, edit the configuration file Bearsampp.conf :

• lang - Language (see Bearsampp\core\langs folder for a complete list). Default : english
• timezone - The default timezone used by all date/time functions. Default : "America/Chicago"
• notepad - The editor while opening files. Default : "notepad.exe"
• logsVerbose - Control the log output verbose (0=simple, 1=report, 2=debug, 3=trace). Default : 0
• scriptsTimeout - The default timeout when VBS/Batch are executed. May vary depending on your system. Default : 120

The language, browser & log level can also be changed by right clicking on the icon and changing them there.

Usage

Launch Bearsampp.exe.

Requirements

OpenJDK

You need OpenJDK ( minimum jdk 11 ) which can be obtained from here
if you use the .zip version of jdk then you will need to extract the archive on your computer (eg. C:\jdk) and add the path to java.exe (eg. C:\jdk\bin) to your environment var PATH.
It's easier to use the .msi installer.
To check if you have Java in your path, open a command prompt and type java -version :

openjdk version "11.0.2" 2019-01-15
OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9, mixed mode)

When updating versions of Microsoft's JDK it does not remove the older version. You will need to use the Add/remove programs function of windows to remove the pre-existing version.

Gradle

Gradle is an exciting new build system that makes improving builds much easier. See our new video on how to use gradle. Introducing Gradle build system

Configuration

• Fork and clone the module of your choice.
• Clone dev in the parent folder of the module.
• Create a new pull request with your work.

For example :

cd C:\work\
git clone --recursive https://github.com/bearsampp/module-adminer.git
git clone --recursive https://github.com/bearsampp/dev.git
cd module-adminer\

Directory structure example :

[-] dev
 | [-] build
 |  |  | build-commons.xml 
[-] bearsampp-{bin|app|tool}-{name}
 |  | build.xml

If you are not familiar with creating a pull request, you can create a new module like this :

• Increment the build.release in the build.properties file using a YYYY.mm.dd format.  Such as 2022.07.24
• If you want you can change the build.path (default C:\bearsampp-build).
• Open a command prompt in your module folder and call the Ant target release : ant release.
• Upload your release on a file hosting system like Sendspace.
• Create an issue on Bearsampp repository to integrate your release.
