Why this repository?

https://github.com/kurbatov/firmata4j is an awesome. However, there was two shortcoming when I tried to use it on Windows:

  1. Cannot download a .jar with all the dependencies packaged in it. This is useful when you don't use maven for your java project and just want to import a .jar lib into your project.
  2. I needed a more recent release than what was published on the Maven central repository. (kurbatov/firmata4j#48)

What is this repository

This repository takes the latest code from the master branch of https://github.com/kurbatov/firmata4j and package it into a .jar with all its dependencies.

Need a new release?

Open an issue, this will trigger a github action that will package the .jar with all the dependencies from latest commit. The Github release tab will be updated with the new .jar.

What else I can do with this repository?

Check the /docs folder. I have put some personal hack in. For example, I show how to download all the dependencies in separate .jar files instead of being packaged into one.
