This git repository provides a barebones Maven+Java environment for the Accumulo Tour. As you go through the tour edit Main.java and use the following maven command to run your code. This command will execute Main.java with all of the correct dependencies on the classpath.
mvn -q clean compile exec:java
The command takes a bit to run because it starts a MiniAccumuloCluster each time.
MiniAccumuloCluster is a mini version of Accumulo that runs on your local filesystem. It should only be used for development purposes. Files and logs used by MiniAccumuloCluster can be seen in the generated directory:
target/mac########
Running mvn clean will remove any files created by previous runs.
