This section includes a short guide how to get running with this project.

Pre-requisites:

• Glassfish v4.1.2 (or, probably, Payara)
• Java 8 (maximum)
  • Note that the presence of Java 9 or higher may have compatability issues with Glassfish/Payara
• MySQL/MariaDB database

Environment Variables

• BT_DB_USER - the BudgetTime database username
• BT_DB_PASSWORD - the BudgetTime database password
• BT_DB_URI - the BudgetTime connection string (e.g. jdbc:mysql://<host>:<port>/<dbname>)

Ensure that all artifacts have been added -- this occurs when the MySQL driver hasn't been included in the class path

This happens when the driver attempts to connect via SSL -- set use ssl to false (often defaults to REQUIRED)
