=====================
Required
--------
* `ant` (for building)
* `jdk-7` (for compiling and running)
Building
--------
### Ubuntu ###
Run `/install.sh` to get dependencies, build, test, package, and make it a service.
Use `service wlgb start` and `service wlgb stop` to start and stop the server.
The configuration file will be at `/etc/wlgb/config.json`.
### Using ant ###
Run `ant all` to build, test, and package it into a jar at `bin/writelatex-git-bridge.jar`.
Use `java -jar <path_to_jar> <path_to_config_file>` to run the server.
Runtime Configuration
---------------------
The configuration file is in `.json` format. There is an example at `bin/config.json`.

You have to restart the server for configuration changes to take effect.
