App Runner

The little web app runner that hosts java, clojure and nodejs apps.

Running locally

Run com.danielflower.apprunner.RunLocal.main from your IDE. This will use the settings in sample-config.properties. Upon startup, it will try to download, build, and deploy the application specified in the config. Launch the URL that is logged on startup see the hosted sample app.

Deploying

You need to have a Windows or Linux server available with Java and one or more build tools installed:

  • Java 8 or later
  • Maven (if you wish to support Maven builds)
  • Lein (if you wish to support Clojure builds)
  • NodeJS and NPM (if you wish to support Nodejs builds)

It's easiest if each tool is available to run from the path, but you can point to specific paths by setting paths in your config file.

Download the latest version of App Runner from Maven central

Run with java -jar app-runner-{version}.jar /path/to/config.properties

See sample-config.properties for sample configuration.
