Spark-Starter-Basic - A basic starter project for Spark Java (v2.9.4)
This starter web application, written in Java using the Spark (https://sparkjava.com/) framework provides a simple project template to get started quickly with a new Spark project.
This project illustrates the following:
-
Basic Domain objects
-
Sample service and controller classes
-
Dynamic error and exception handling for web views and JSON responses
-
Log4J logging configuration
-
Maven configuration to support Snyk (https://snyk.io/) for security vulnerability scanning
-
Simple support for Swagger API documentations using annotations and JAX RS
- Avoids more complex 3rd party libraries and projects
- Builds on examples from 2016, but still leverage lambda expressions for routes
This app supports loading a single environment variable 'environment' (values = 'development', 'test', 'production')
If no environment variable is set, the default is 'production'
When running from the command line and maven, mvn clean install
will create a jar file in the target directory.
To start the app, run:
export environment=development
java -jar target/spark-starter-basic-1.0.0.jar
Swagger endpoints are available locally at http://localhost:3000/swagger-ui/
