Build from Source

The other way to setup Druid is from source via git.

Builing Druid requires the following:

• JDK 7 or JDK 8
• Maven version 3.x

To do so, run these commands:

git clone git@github.com:druid-io/druid.git
cd druid
mvn clean package

This will compile the project and create the Druid binary distribution tar under services/target/druid-VERSION-bin.tar.gz.

You can find the example executables in the examples/bin directory:

• run_example_server.sh
• run_example_client.sh
