+Building Stendhal is very simple if you use ant and you satisfy the dependencies.
-{{TODO| Cleanup or delete, because this is outdated (e.g. you do not need to download any of those jars individually now.) It only seems to explain how to run the client and not build the server. [[StendhalLocalhostServerOnLinux]] is preferred. }}
-This guide, taken from [http://arianne.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=HowToBuildStendhal a more generic guide] will tech you how to build (compile) Stendhal on an Ubuntu machine. This guide was initial written with a Kubuntu 6.06 machine as the tester, so it should be pretty current (at least for another 6 months).
+== But first... are you sure that you don't want to use an IDE? ==
-= Requirements =
+This guide is aimed at those who just want to play the latest version of the game before it is officially released.
-These are the requirements needed to build Stendhal
+If you intend to do modifications to the game, it is recommended that you follow [[Configure a development environment (IDE)]] instead.
-* [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1111&package_id=145790 Latest stendhal.X.xx-src.tar.gz package]
-* [http://arianne.cvs.sourceforge.net/arianne/stendhal/libs/ Libs (all .jar files from there)]
-* Sun Java SDK 1.5: sun-j2re1.5
-** Note: You need to have the [http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf PLF repositories] to get the sun-j2re1.5 package
-* ant
-* ant-optional
-** Note: You need to have your universe repositories enabled to get ant-optional
-== Quick Req. Install ==
+==Get the source Stendhal code ==
- sudo apt-get update
- sudo apt-get install liblog4j1.2-java sun-j2re1.5 jython ant ant-optional
+First of all, you need to get the Stendhal source code. There are two ways:
- cd ~
- mkdir build
- cd build
- download the source  from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1111&package_id=145790
- tar xvzf stendhal*.tar.gz
- cd stendhal*
- mkdir libs
- cd libs
+* Download the source distribution at https://arianne-project.org/download/stendhal-src.tar.gz Use <code>tar xzf stendhal-''version''-src.tar.gz</code> to unpack it.
-Now download the jar files from http://arianne.cvs.sourceforge.net/arianne/stendhal/libs/
+* Alternatively you can clone the git repository to get the latest development version: <code>sudo apt-get install git</code> and <code>git clone <nowiki>https://github.com/arianne/stendhal.git</nowiki></code>.
- * ant.jar
- * jardiff.jar
- * log4j.jar
- * pircbot.jar
- * tiled.jar
- * groovy.jar
- * junit-4.1.jar
- * marauroa.jar
- * simple.jar
- * commons-lang.jar
- & any other jars in that folder not listed here may be needed too (if this guide got out of date for example.)
+==Requirements==
-Now go to stendhal dir (one level up) and start ant:
- cd ..
- ant clean && ant
+These are the requirements needed to build Stendhal:
-=== Client Files ===
-Needed to play.
- stendhal-X.xx.jar
- stendhal-data-X.xx.jar
+* OpenJDK or Oracle JDK 1.8 ''or higher'' e.g.:
-=== Server Files ===
+ sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
-Needed if you make your own server
- stendhal-server-X.xx.jar
- stendhal-xmlconf-X.xx.jar
- stendhal-maps-X.xx.jar
+* ant <br>http://ant.apache.org or e.g.:
-= To Play =
+ sudo apt-get install ant ant-optional:
-To play stendhal, simply copy the compiled binaries over your existing game (make a backup first, unless you want to re-download stendhal if you mess up).
+* node.js from https://nodejs.org
+==Building with ant==
+ cd stendhal-''version''
+ ant clean &&  ant dist
+This will create the binaries you should be already familiar with, such as:
+===Client files===
+:build/stendhal-''version''.zip
+:build/stendhal-FULL-''version''.zip
+===Server files===
+:build/stendhal-server-''version''.zip
+===Source files===
+:build/stendhal-src-''version''.tar.gz
+== Building just the jar files ==
+'''Note:''' If you are unsure, follow the instructions described in the previous section (ant dist) to get a working system with all the files in the correct directory structure.
+To only build the jar files, without putting them together inside a zip, you just write
+ ant
+This will build a full set of JAR files at stendhal-''version''/build/lib folder:
+===Client files===
+:build/lib/stendhal-''version''.jar
+:build/lib/stendhal-data-''version''.jar
+:build/lib/stendhal-sound-data-''version''.jar
+===Server files===
+:build/lib/stendhal-server-''version''.jar
+:build/lib/stendhal-xmlconf-''version''.jar
+:build/lib/stendhal-maps-''version''.jar
+== Trouble shooting ==
+If you have the message error:
+ stendhal_source/build.xml:42: Could not create task or type of type: replaceregexp.
+For linux users this is corrected by installing the "ant-apache-regexp" package. If you use debian or another debian dist (like Ubuntu) this is included in the "ant-optional" package.
+== Finally ==
+When you have successfully built Stendhal please read the install documentation. It is available on the Wiki at [[InstallingStendhal]].
+In the future if you wish to just create the client and server jars (not zips and all release packages) then
+ ant clean compile
+will suffice. Remember to "ant clean" before you "ant build" everytime - this is done automatically if you "ant dist", however.
-If you want to start it from stendhal-X.xx/build/lib directory you have to copy the libs from stendhal-X.xx/libs/ there:
- cd stendhal-X.xx/build/lib
- cp ../../libs/* .
-And to start type:
- java -jar stendhal-X.xx.jar
