Eclipse

Drupal Dev Environment Virtual Machine. Install notes and scripts.

Hi,

Imagine being able to teach someone to review/create patches, without having to teach them to setup a LAMP development environment.
Imagine windows and mac users, friends, learning together to do (blank) with a virtual machine development environment.

I created a virtualbox Drupal development image. I wanted a simple platform to collaborate with several others on for a project. I thought others might benefit from the work.

Features include:
- Slim lightweight image (OS+tools are under 1gig)
- LAMP with APC
- Netbeans and Eclipse with debugging

Time to upgrade: Eclipse PDT 2.1 based on Galileo is out

Eclipse PDT 2.1 is based on Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo release). That release also includes Mylyn, a tool that helps you organize the to do list in conjunction with the bug reports in Trac and other bug tracking tools. I've never tried it before, but it sounds very interesting.

New all-in-one packages now include one for 64bit Linux and one for Mac OS X Cocoa.

With a new version comes also the question of upgrading. This post intends to share one potential way to do the upgrade.

The Eclipse foundation is relaunching their Eclipse PlugIn Central (EPIC) plugin repository site in Drupal.

Here's a prebuilt virtualbox environment for development. Works on any platform. I think this is a great way to introduce people to developing Drupal with FOSS tools. if nothing else it provides a debugging environment plug-and-play.

What is it?

its a Virtualbox VDI image (which has a smaller footprint than VMware) using Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.

The the image of course (like VMware) works on any platform, Windows, Mac, *nix. I think anything with a JAVA JRE stack.

The setup includes:

  • LAMP - using xampp - for a cleaner / easier interface for noobs, and includes phpmyadmin

Drupal Eclipse

Eclipse is a very powerful IDE. Having it work with Drupal requires installing Eclipse PDT, and then configuring it. Although it's easy to download and use the All-In-One Eclipse PDT, I wanted to start from Eclipse core and install was Eclipse PDT on top of it. The attached XML file will add the required install URLs to Eclipse's update manager....
