Generate Eclipse instances using Python.

This project requires:

• Python 3.10 and newer
• Java 11 and newer

Build & Test

If you have a local installation of Eclipse, set the $ECLIPSE_HOME environment variable to point to the directory that contains the eclipse or eclipse.exe executable.

export ECLIPSE_HOME=~/eclipse/

Alternatively, you can provide the URL to a mirror where an appropriate version of Eclipse can be downloaded from. Usually you would pick the Linux version of the Platform Runtime Binary, say from this page. If you specify nothing, Eclipse is downloaded from this URL by default:

export ECLIPSE_URL=https://artifacts.metaborg.org/content/repositories/releases/org/eclipse/eclipse-platform/4.21/eclipse-platform-4.21-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz

Finally, enable the appropriate Java version (e.g., sdk use java 17.0.8-tem), then create a virtual environment and run the tests:

virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .[test]      # Install in editable mode with test dependencies
python -m pytest            # Run the tests
