Building Smack
==============
Linux
-----
Building Smack is as simple as
```
git clone git@github.com:igniterealtime/Smack.git
cd Smack
gradle assemble
```
Mac
---
Smack requires a case-sensitive file system in order to build. Unfortunately, the macOS operating system is case-insensitive by default.
To get around this, you can create a case-sensitive disk image to work from.
1. Launch Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities)
2. Click the +, or go to Edit > Add APFS Volume
3. Give it a name, e.g. "Smack"
4. Change the format to "APFS (Case-sensitive)"
5. Click Add
It'll auto-mount into /Volumes, e.g. /Volumes/Smack
```bash
cd /Volumes/Smack
git clone git@github.com:igniterealtime/Smack.git
cd Smack
gradle assemble
```
Windows
-------
Smack requires a case-sensitive file system in order to build. Unfortunately, Windows NTFS is case-insensitive by default.
To get around this, you can set specific folders as case-sensitive (requires Windows 10 v1803 or higher).
In an Administrator console:
```batch
fsutil.exe file SetCaseSensitiveInfo C:\git\Smack enable
cd \git\Smack
git clone git@github.com:igniterealtime/Smack.git
cd Smack
gradle assemble
```
