What is Genesis

Genesis is a Java add-in that runs on the Domino server and allows you to install and update applications with a single command line.
How to Try Genesis on Your Domino Server
The setup process is simple and should only take a few minutes.
1. Download the Genesis JAR
You can always get the latest version from GitHub:
GitHub (Genesis)2. Create a Folder for Genesis
Create a folder called JavaAddin/Genesis
in your Domino data directory and copy the downloaded Genesis.jar
file there.
Example full path:
/opt/hcl/domino/data/JavaAddin/Genesis/Genesis-0.6.20.jar
3. Register Genesis in notes.ini
Add the following lines to your notes.ini
:
JavaUserClassesExt=GJA_Genesis
GJA_Genesis=JavaAddin/Genesis/Genesis-0.6.20.jar
4. Restart the runjava
Task
Run the following Domino console commands:
tell runjava quit
load runjava Genesis
That’s it — Genesis is now ready to use.
Can I Use My Own App Catalog?
Yes! By default, Genesis uses the catalog at:
https://appstore.dominogenesis.com/gc.nsf
But you can use your own catalog by providing a custom endpoint:
load runjava Genesis $endpoint
You can also install applications from other catalogs at any time using:
load runjava Genesis
tell Genesis origin $endpoint $secret $command
