Ok, so, I'm developing an app for the Amazon FireTV, so I have to use Eclipse.
I'm trying to use this socket.io Java client library: https://github.com/nkzawa/socket.io-client.java
at the bottom of this post, i included the installation instructions, which I'm not really sure how to make work with my existing Eclipse project (I'm new to maven). so from my understanding, do i just add a pom.xml file and a test folder? Then paste in their "maven central code" into the pom.xml? Will this cause any issues with the other code in my project? Or, can I just copy and paste all their SRC code into my project, since it's MIT licensed? I'd rather learn how to do this the proper way. The project is not in JAR format, so I was thinking maybe copying the folder structure into my project then using the Project Properties, Add Library option to connect to my code? Maybe?
Their installation instructions, (available in their readme.md):
The latest artifact is available on Maven Central. Add the following dependency to your pom.xml.
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.nkzawa</groupId>
<artifactId>socket.io-client</artifactId>
<version>0.3.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Or to install it manually, please refer dependencies to pom.xml.
Add it as a gradle dependency for Android Studio, in build.gradle:
compile 'com.github.nkzawa:socket.io-client:0.3.0'
So, I learned that Maven Central has JAR files available for download. That way, you can just include them in your project via the Project Properties dependencies options. Without having to learn Maven.
