guilherme-alves-silve / quarkus-gradle-example

Project based on the Udemy course Quarkus Backend development with Java and GraalVM (https://www.udemy.com/course/quarkus-backend-development-java)

gradle-example project

This project uses Quarkus, the Supersonic Subatomic Java Framework.

If you want to learn more about Quarkus, please visit its website: https://quarkus.io/ .

Running the application in dev mode

You can run your application in dev mode that enables live coding using:

./gradlew quarkusDev

Packaging and running the application

The application can be packaged using ./gradlew quarkusBuild. It produces the gradle-example-1.0-SNAPSHOT-runner.jar file in the build directory. Be aware that it’s not an über-jar as the dependencies are copied into the build/lib directory.

The application is now runnable using java -jar build/gradle-example-1.0-SNAPSHOT-runner.jar.

If you want to build an über-jar, just add the --uber-jar option to the command line:

./gradlew quarkusBuild --uber-jar

Creating a native executable

You can create a native executable using: ./gradlew build -Dquarkus.package.type=native.

Or, if you don't have GraalVM installed, you can run the native executable build in a container using: ./gradlew build -Dquarkus.package.type=native -Dquarkus.native.container-build=true.

You can then execute your native executable with: ./build/gradle-example-1.0-SNAPSHOT-runner
