+# Building CarbonData
+
+## Prerequisites
+* Unix-like environment (Linux, Mac OS X)
+* Git
+* [Apache Maven (Recommend version 3.3 or later)](
https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi)
+* [Oracle Java 7 or 8](
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
+* [Apache Thrift 0.9.3](
https://thrift.apache.org/download)
+
+## Build release version
+Note:Need install Apache Thrift
+```
+mvn clean -DskipTests -Pbuild-with-format install
+```
+
+## Build dev version(snapshot version,clone from github)
+Note:Already uploaded format.jar to snapshot repo for facilitating dev users,
+so the compilation command works without "-Pbuild-with-format"
+
+Build without test,by default carbondata takes Spark 1.5.2 to build the project
+```
+mvn -DskipTests clean package
+```
+
+Build with different supported versions of Spark.
+```
+mvn -DskipTests -Pspark-1.5 -Dspark.version=1.5.0 clean package
+mvn -DskipTests -Pspark-1.5 -Dspark.version=1.5.1 clean package
+mvn -DskipTests -Pspark-1.5 -Dspark.version=1.5.2 clean package
+
+mvn -DskipTests -Pspark-1.6 -Dspark.version=1.6.0 clean package
+mvn -DskipTests -Pspark-1.6 -Dspark.version=1.6.1 clean package
+mvn -DskipTests -Pspark-1.6 -Dspark.version=1.6.2 clean package
