Petclinic is a Spring Boot application built using Maven. You can build a jar file and run it from the command line:
git clone https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-petclinic.git
cd spring-petclinic
./mvnw package
java -jar target/*.jar
You can then access petclinic here: http://localhost:8080/
Or you can run it from Maven directly using the Spring Boot Maven plugin. If you do this it will pick up changes that you make in the project immediately (changes to Java source files require a compile as well - most people use an IDE for this):
./mvnw spring-boot:run

In its default configuration, Petclinic uses an in-memory database (HSQLDB) which
gets populated at startup with data. A similar setup is provided for MySql in case a persistent database configuration is needed.
Note that whenever the database type is changed, the app needs to be run with a different profile: spring.profiles.active=mysql for MySql.
You could start MySql locally with whatever installer works for your OS, or with docker:
docker run -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=petclinic -e MYSQL_DATABASE=petclinic -p 3306:3306 mysql:5.7.8
docker exec -it mysql bash
mysql -uroot -p
Create the DB schema and the database tables by running the scirpts inside the initDB.sql and populateDB.sql files
Create a jar file under target directory:
mvn package -DskipTests=true
Run the application using mysql profile
java -Dspring.profiles.active=mysql -jar target\spring-petclinic-2.0.0.jar
Run the application using hsqldb profile
java -Dspring.profiles.active=hsqldb -jar target\spring-petclinic-2.0.0.jar
Inside the Dockerfile, create the last line as:
ENTRYPOINT [ "sh", "-c", "java -Dspring.profiles.active=${ENV} -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -jar /app.jar" ]
Create a docker image and push it to the Docker Hub
And while running the docker:
docker run --env ENV=mysql -d -p 8080:8080 <image id>
This way, environment variable gets local as value and passes to Dockerfile when we bring up a container.
You can also pass on the Spring Profile as an environment variable at the run time as:
$ docker run -e "SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE=prod" -p 8080:8080 -t ibuchh/spring-petclinic
