Maven prototype project with jar in local mvn repo

Maven prototype project with jar in local mvn repo

The local jar lives in the

lib

directory. It gets uploaded to the local Maven repo and from then on can be used in your pom.xml files after you instruct them to consult the local mvn repo with the following:

    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>local-maven-repo</id>
            <url>file:///${project.basedir}/local-maven-repo</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>

Kudos to this.

Installation

You will need the Java 8 SDK or higher installed on your system to compile and run the code as well as Maven.

You can ignore everything below if you invoke

make

which will make the default target run.

To start from clean run

make clean-all

Compiling ...

All you should need to do is invoke mvn package and Maven will prepare under ./target directory a fat JAR for you containing all the dependencies.

Running

Prior to running, make sure you have a top level logs directory if you plan to use the default logging properties file supplied under config.

Under ./target directory you can find two JAR files, a thin one and a fat one (the one that has -jar-with-dependencies as part of its name) By invoking

java -Djava.util.logging.config.file=./config/logging.properties -jar target/munism-1.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar

the application will run.

Status

The project should run out of the box on both Windows and Linux machines! No logging is actually done.

Issues

1. No explicit IntelliJ/Eclipse support
2. No logging? (Old logging versions)
