Blog About Mule Studio, Get a T-Shirt

Are you as excited about Mule Studio as we are? If so, blog about it and send a link to your blog and your postal address to reply@mulesoft.com and we’ll send you a Mule T-Shirt.

Even if you don’t need the T-Shirt download Mule Studio and take the tour.

Interfaces are always slightly different, range/ease of operations offered vary, documentation varies wildly, so if nothing else, you will learn something in the process.

And, if you blog about it, etc., you will get a new T-Shirt.

Something to look forward to in the mailbox!


A couple of notes on getting started, not that you need them but someone else may:

Step 1 reads:

Before you unzip the muleStudio
package, ensure that it has the permissions required for installation.
To set these permissions, open a console and execute the following command:
chmod u+x muleStudio

The muleStudio folder or directory appears when the unzip operation completes.

Err? Permission to install?

Permission to install is a user privilege question, not setting the file to be executable.

On Linux (Ubuntu 10.10) I just tossed it into my /home/patrick/working directory where I keep all manner of software. It’s just me on the box so I don’t have to worry about making apps available to others.

But, after you unzip the file you do have to:

chmod u+x muleStudio*

BTW, the folder I got was: MuleStudio, so my path is /home/patrick/working/MuleStudio.

Step 2 Execute reads:

Unzip the muleStudio package, which is located in the following path:
/MuleStudio
Enter the following command in the console to launch muleStudio:
./muleStudio
Alternatively, double click the muleStudio file in the Linux graphic interface, as shown above

Err, but we just unzipped it, yes?

Let’s re-write steps 1 and 2:

Step 1:

Unzip the MuleSoft package for your system into a convenient location.

The folder or directory name will be MuleSoft

Step 2:

Change to the MuleSoft directory.

Make the muleStudio* file executable with the command:

chmod u+x muleStudio*

Start the program by:

Double-clicking on muleStudio* in the graphic interface, or

entering the command:

/.muleStudio*

That is trivial in terms of improving the use of MuleStudio but when clear writing becomes a habit, more difficult topics become easier for users.
