## Usage - Use Soluvas's Repository

### In Maven project

    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>soluvas-public-snapshots</id>
            <url>http://nexus.bippo.co.id/nexus/content/repositories/soluvas-public-snapshots/</url>
            <releases>
                <enabled>false</enabled>
            </releases>
            <snapshots>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </snapshots>
        </repository>
    </repositories>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.alicebot.ab</groupId>
            <artifactId>ab</artifactId>
            <version>4.0.4-SNAPSHOT</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

### In Gradle project

    repositories {
        maven {
            url 'http://nexus.bippo.co.id/nexus/content/repositories/soluvas-public-snapshots/'
        }
    }

    dependencies {

        compile 'org.alicebot.ab:ab:4.0.4-SNAPSHOT'

    }

## Usage - Build Yourself

1. Build using [Maven](http://maven.apache.org) to your local Maven repository:

        mvn -DskipTests install

2. Use in your Maven project:

        <dependencies>
            <dependency>
                <groupId>org.alicebot.ab</groupId>
                <artifactId>ab</artifactId>
                <version>4.0.4-SNAPSHOT</version>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>

    or Gradle project:

        dependencies {

            compile 'org.alicebot.ab:ab:4.0.4-SNAPSHOT'

        }
    
## TODO

1. Build entirely with Maven, without embedded JARs in project sources [done]
2. Replace System.out.println with SLF4J logging [done]
3. Replace ex.printStackTrace(); with detailed Exception [partial]
4. Replace commons-logging dependency with SLF4J 1.6/1.7 [done]
5. -Allow loading bot data files from classpath- (too complex, and probably non-performant in Android anyway, alternative: extract the bot ZIP file to @getCacheDir()@)  
6. Replace json dependency with jackson 2.2
7. Run well with Android Gingerbread (API 9)
