# Building Kyuubi ## Building Kyuubi with Apache Maven **Kyuubi** is built based on [Apache Maven](https://maven.apache.org), ```bash ./build/mvn clean package -DskipTests ``` This results in the creation of all sub-modules of Kyuubi project without running any unit test. If you want to test it manually, you can start Kyuubi directly from the Kyuubi project root by running ```bash bin/kyuubi start ``` ## Building a Submodule Individually For instance, you can build the Kyuubi Common module using: ```bash build/mvn clean package -pl kyuubi-common -DskipTests ``` ## Building Submodules Individually For instance, you can build the Kyuubi Common module using: ```bash build/mvn clean package -pl kyuubi-common,kyuubi-ha -DskipTests ``` ## Skipping Some modules For instance, you can build the Kyuubi modules without Kyuubi Codecov and Assembly modules using: ```bash mvn clean install -pl '!dev/kyuubi-codecov,!kyuubi-assembly' -DskipTests ``` ## Building Kyuubi against Different Apache Spark versions Since v1.1.0, Kyuubi support building with different Spark profiles, | Profile | Default | Since | |-------------|---------|-------| | -Pspark-3.1 | No | 1.1.0 | | -Pspark-3.2 | No | 1.4.0 | | -Pspark-3.3 | Yes | 1.6.0 | ## Building with Apache dlcdn site By default, we use `https://archive.apache.org/dist/` to download the built-in release packages of engines, such as Spark or Flink. But sometimes, you may find it hard to reach, or the download speed is too slow, then you can define the `apache.archive.dist` by `-Pmirror-cdn` to accelerate to download speed. For example, ```bash build/mvn clean package -Pmirror-cdn ``` The profile migrates your download repo to the Apache officially suggested site - https://dlcdn.apache.org. Note that, this site only holds the latest versions of Apache releases. You may fail if the specific version defined by `spark.version` or `flink.version` is overdue. ## Building with the `fast` profile The `fast` profile helps to significantly reduce build time, which is useful for development or compilation validation, by skipping running the tests, code style checks, building scaladoc, enforcer rules and downloading engine archives used for tests. ```bash build/mvn clean package -Pfast ```
