Maven

Maven is the de-facto standard to manage Java projects. To install it:

$ sudo apt-get install maven

More information on Maven are here.

To create an executable jar with all dependencies modify the pom.xml adding the following before the </project> closing tag:

<build>

  <plugins>
    <!-- download source code in Eclipse, best practice -->
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.9</version>
      <configuration>
        <downloadSources>true</downloadSources>
        <downloadJavadocs>false</downloadJavadocs>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>

    <!-- Set a compiler level -->
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.3.2</version>  
    </plugin>

    <!-- Maven Assembly Plugin -->
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.4.1</version>
      <configuration>
        <!-- get all project dependencies -->
        <descriptorRefs>
          <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
        </descriptorRefs>
        <!-- MainClass in mainfest make a executable jar -->
        <archive>
          <manifest>
            <mainClass>$PACKAGE.$MAINCLASS</mainClass>
          </manifest>
        </archive>
      </configuration>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>make-assembly</id>
          <!-- bind to the packaging phase -->
          <phase>package</phase>
          <goals>
            <goal>single</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

Run your application

Go inside your project root folder.
Type mvn package. It will generate the jar file inside the target folder.
Execute your application by issuing:

$ java -jar target/$ARTIFACTID-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Californium

A more detailed presentation on Californium can be found here here

In order to create a Maven project that uses Californium add the following to the pom.xml:

<dependencies>
...
    <dependency>
            <groupId>org.eclipse.californium</groupId>
            <artifactId>californium-core</artifactId>
            <version>1.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </dependency>
...
</dependencies>
...
<repositories>

    <repository>
      <id>repo.eclipse.org</id>
      <name>Californium Repository</name>

Virtual Machine

The VMware VM used in the lab is available here. Download the file, unzip it and open the ovf with WMWare. If an error occurs, click on Retry and the VM should be imported correctly.

Multiple 6LoWPAN networks

In order to deploy multiple 6LoWPAN networks, one emulated through cooja and one based on physical devices, a further step is needed.

Open a shell to interact with the Z1 border router
Issue the command export PREFIX=fa00::1/64
Type the command make TARGET=z1 connect-router
Open cooja and create a simulation with a border router as the first node
Create a Socket Server on the node 1
In another shell type make connect-router-cooja

The emulated network will have fd00::1/64 as prefix, while the real network will have the prefix set to fa00::1/64.
