Building from source

This page provides some instructions on how to build Structurizr from the source code. This provides all commands, with the open core version of server.

Prerequisites:

• Java 21

Building

git clone https://github.com/structurizr/structurizr.git
cd structurizr
./mvnw -DexcludedGroups=IntegrationTest package

The above command excludes integration tests because these require Docker to be installed. If any of the other tests fail, you can run the following command to skip all tests:

./mvnw -Dmaven.test.skip=true package

Running

java -jar structurizr-application/target/structurizr-1.0.0.war

Building a Docker image

To build a Docker image, build the code first as above, then:

docker build . -t structurizr
