* You now have two options for building jQuery, if you have access to common UNIX commands (like `make`, `mkdir`, `rm`, `cat`, and `echo`) then simply type `make` to build all the components.
Build Options
--------------
* The other option is if you have Ant installed (or are on Windows and don't have access to make). You can download Ant from here: [http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi](http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi)
If you do have Ant, everytime (in this README) that I say 'make', do 'ant' instead - it works identically (for all intents and purposes).
You now have **three** options for building jQuery:
* **`make`**: If you have access to common UNIX commands (like `make`, `mkdir`, `rm`, `cat`, and `echo`) then simply type `make` to build all the components.
* **`rake`**: If you have Ruby Rake installed, you can simply type `rake` to build all the components. This method works on both Windows and UNIX/Linux systems.
* **`ant`**: If you have Ant installed (or are on Windows and don't have access to make). You can download Ant from here: [http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi](http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi).
How to build your own jQuery
-----------------------------
*Note: If you are using either `rake` or `ant`, substitute your chosen method in place of `make` in the examples below. They work identically for all intents and purposes. Quick reference is also available for `rake` by typing `rake -T` in the `jquery` directory.*
In the main directory of the distribution (the one that this file is in), type
the following to make all versions of jQuery:
`make`
make
Here are each of the individual items that are buildable from the Makefile.
*Here are each of the individual items that are buildable from the Makefile:*
`make init`
make init
Pull in all the external dependencies (QUnit, Sizzle) for the project.
`make jquery`
make jquery
The standard, uncompressed, jQuery code.
Makes: ./dist/jquery.js
Makes: `./dist/jquery.js`
`make min`
make min
A compressed version of jQuery (made the Closure Compiler).
Makes: ./dist/jquery.min.js
Makes: `./dist/jquery.min.js`
`make lint`
make lint
Tests a build of jQuery against JSLint, looking for potential errors or bits of confusing code.
`make selector`
make selector
Builds the selector library for jQuery from Sizzle.
Makes: ./src/selector.js
Makes: `./src/selector.js`
Finally, you can remove all the built files using the command:
`make clean`
make clean
Additionally, if you want to install jQuery to a location that is not this
directory, you can specify the PREFIX directory, for example:
Building to a different directory
----------------------------------
If you want to install jQuery to a location that is not this directory, you can...
**Make only:** Specify the PREFIX directory, for example:
`make PREFIX=/home/john/test/`
make PREFIX=/home/john/test/ [command]
With this example, the output files would be contained in `/home/john/test/dist/`
**Rake only:** Define the DIST_DIR directory, for example:
rake DIST_DIR=/home/john/test/ [command]
With this example, the output files would be contained in `/home/john/test/`
*In both examples, `[command]` is optional.*
**Ant only:** You cannot currently build to another directory when using Ant.
