Nexus Windows Setup

Nexus requires some minimal setup to:

• Setup the env script for Nexus
• Install compile scripts to a bin directory
• Compile the nexus CLI

Nexus env script and bin directory

Copy env.template.sh to env.sh.

Edit env.sh:

• Set NEXUS_BASE_PATH to where the Nexus code is deployed.
• Set NEXUS_BIN_PATH to where the bin scripts will be installed, e.g. a bin directory within NEXUS_BASE_PATH.

Add bin directory to PATH

Add Nexus’ bin directory to your PATH environment variable. In Windows 10: Start -> Settings -> System. Type “env” and click “Edit the environment variables for your account”. Edit the PATH environment variable and add the NEXUS_BIN_PATH, which is the directory you just created in this section.

Setup Nexus

Install the compile scripts, which will be copied to NEXUS_BIN_PATH:

cd src\nexus\cmd
scripts\dist

Compile the CLI

In the same directory run:

compile nexus

Install to NEXUS_BIN_PATH:

scripts\dist
