Installing Orb

The Orb web framework is available as an optional extension to the Jade platform.

To get the Orb components, download the zip file from the Orb Web Framework tile on the Extensions page of the Jade Platform Developer Centre; that is, https://www.jadeplatform.com/developer-centre/extensions.

Sample schemas with Orb applications can be downloaded from the public repository at:

https://github.com/jadesoftwarenz/jade-orb-examples

After you unzip the downloaded file:

  1. Load the JadeOrbSchema files into your system. This schema has the JadeOrbPackage package, which contains the Orb class, methods, interfaces that you require to create an Orb application. For details, see "Loading Your Schema", in Chapter 10 of the Development Environment User's Guide.

  2. Import the JadeOrbPackage package from the JadeOrbSchema into the schema for which you want to create an Orb application. For details, see "Importing a Package", in Chapter 8 of the Developer's Reference.
