To build an application from a description file and deploy it on your bibiserv web application you must perform the following two steps.

• Build a BiBiServ application from the description ...

$ java -jar codegen-1.0.jar -g ~/Desktop/dialign.xml  -t /tmp

• ... and build a BiBiServ archive from the application and deploy it on the application server.

$ mvn package

The package task uses a credetenials file named '.bibiserv2_manager' located in the users home dir. The credentials file is generated by the instantBibi task (for local installations) and looks like :

$ cat ~/.bibiserv2_manager
