Apache Isis™ software is a framework for rapidly developing domain-driven apps in Java. Write your business logic in entities, domain services and repositories, and the framework dynamically generates a representation of that domain model as a webapp or RESTful API. Use for prototyping or production.

Getting Started

If you just want to get going quickly, see the Maven archetype.

Formal Releases

If you want to build Isis from formally released source tarballs, you can download from here:

Core:

Components:

Archetypes:

See the release matrix for details on the dependencies between core, components and archetypes.

Verifying Releases

It is essential that you verify the integrity of any downloaded files using the PGP or MD5 signatures. For more information on signing artifacts and why we do it, check out the Release Signing FAQ.

The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG. First download the KEYS as well as the asc signature file for the artifact. Make sure you get these files from the main distribution directory, rather than from a mirror.

Then verify the signatures using:

pgpk -a KEYS
pgpv isis-1.1.0-source-release.zip.asc

or

pgp -ka KEYS
pgp isis-1.1.0-source-release.zip.asc

or

gpg --import KEYS
gpg --verify isis-1.1.0-source-release.zip.asc

Alternatively, you can verify the MD5 signature on the files. A Unix/Linux program called md5 or md5sum is included in most distributions. It is also available as part of GNU Textutils. Windows users can get binary md5 programs from these (and likely other) places:

Source Code

You can also download the Isis source code using:

git clone git://git.apache.org/isis.git

or

git clone http://git.apache.org/isis.git

The code is also mirrored on github, where you can browse it or fork it. And if you're interested in contributing back to Isis, see here.

Committers

Committers should use the read/write repo:
