Setting up Netbeans

for developing DBpedia Spotlight

##Download NetBeans Download NetBeans here: https://netbeans.org/downloads/ It is recommended that you download the full version.

##Download Scala Plug-ins To download the Scala plug-ins that you need, click Tools > Plugins > Available Plugins and type Scala in the search box. Then, select all results and click Install.

##Set up Maven NetBeans includes full Maven support and already has an embeded Maven installation. Although unlikely, it is possible that its version is not the one required to build Spotlight's source code. In this case, you must download and install Maven 3 and set NetBeans to use it. To do this, click Tools > Options > Java > Maven and set the Maven Home path.

##Import the Project After downloading Spotlight's source code, to import the project into NetBeans simply click File > Open Project and find the Spotlight project's root directory.

##Build the Project To build the project, right-click the Spotlight project in the Projects list and click Build. It should resolve all Maven dependencies. In case it does not, the project ought to be built with Maven outside NetBeans.
