How to run this application

Pre-reqs

Java 1.8

Gradle

Gradle is used here to build the project and manage the dependencies. The gradlew command used here will automatically download gradle for you so you shouldn't need to install anything other than java.

Building your project from the command line

To build the project on Linux or MacOS run the command ./gradlew build in a shell terminal. This will build the source code in src/main/java, run any tests in src/test/java and create an output jar file in the build/libs folder.

To clean out any intermediate files run ./gradlew clean. This will remove all files in the build folder.

Running your application from the command line

You first must create a shadow jar file. This is a file which contains your project code and all dependencies in a single jar file. To build a shadow jar from your project run ./gradlew shadowJar. This will create a concurrent-writer-shadow.jar file in the build/libs directory.

You can then start your application by running the command java -jar ./build/libs/concurrent-writer-shadow.jar
