Installing OpenCDS Sample Knowledge Repository

Filesystem-based Method

1. A sample knowledge repository is distributed with the OpenCDS deployment file (the 'war').
2. Download the appropriate opencds-knowledge-repository-data.zip (depending upon the donwloaded version of opencds-decision-support-service.war) from the Releases
3. Unzip it to the location specified in the OpenCDS configuration file (see Configuring OpenCDS).
   1. The location must be on a filesystem visible to the running instance of Tomcat.

Jar-based Method

NOTE: This option is for developers and advanced users.

1. A test repository is included in the war, and may be updated with custom repository elements by following the standard procedures for manipulating jar files.
2. NOTE: Developers may update their local copies of the codebase to automatically build the war with a custom repository.  However, please do not commit this to the repository.
