Preparing the Development Environment

Preparing the Environment

Table 1 describes the preparations required before using LakeFormation Java SDK.

Collecting Dependency Information

• Collecting LakeFormation Java SDK dependencies

  View the JAR package of LakeFormation Java SDK of the latest version in the Maven repository at Maven SDK address and obtain the file content. The following is an example.

          <dependency>
              <groupId>com.huaweicloud.sdk</groupId>
              <artifactId>huaweicloud-sdk-lakeformation</artifactId>
              <version>3.1.45</version>
          </dependency>

  

• Preparing maven-assembly-plugin dependencies

  Prepare the following maven-assembly-plugin dependencies in advance:

      <build>
          <plugins>
              <plugin>
                  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                  <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
                  <version>3.3.0</version>
                  <configuration>
                      <descriptorRefs>
                          <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
                      </descriptorRefs>
                      <archive>
                          <manifest>
                              <mainClass>com.huawei.cloud.dalf.lakecat.examples.CatalogExample</mainClass>
                          </manifest>
                      </archive>
                  </configuration>
                  <executions>
                      <execution>
                          <id>make-assembly</id>
                          <phase>package</phase>
                          <goals>
                              <goal>single</goal>
                          </goals>
                      </execution>
                  </executions>
              </plugin>
          </plugins>
      </build>

Configuring IntelliJ IDEA and POM Files
