Dropwizard Gradle Kotlin Starter
Minimal example to set up an 'Hello World' Dropwizard service written in Kotlin going with Gradle.
This example utilizes Gradle Shadow, plugin which collapses all dependencies and project code into a single Jar file, in similar concept as Maven Shade, thus, creating Self-Contained executable Jar.
Getting Started
In order to create a running Jar, run gradlew shadowJar. This will output result to build/libs/Dropwizard_Gradle_Kotlin_starter-1.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar
Now that you’ve built a JAR file, it’s time to run it.
In your project directory, run this to get DropWizard application started:
$ java -jar build/libs/Dropwizard_Gradle_Kotlin_starter-1.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar server helloworld.yml
Demo
Once service is live, give it a try with http://localhost:8080/hello-world?name=John+Doe
And That's It!
