This is a text document formatted in the asciidoctor
style of syntax.
This project is designed to use the Gradle build tool. So the folder structure reflects the build tool expectations.
There is also a tiny wrapper of tools that allow you to build and run gradle without installing that tool. As a trial to confirm everything is correctly installed, open a terminal command session. Then change directories in the root of this project. Then try a command like:
./gradlew check
Note
|
An active internet session is required as is a java runtime environment of JDK7 or more recent. |
First time execution (only) will force Gradle to download several dependencies from the internet. This is to support build script logic and speed things up after the first run.
Build scripts are included and these scripts have the .gradle file suffix. Their name and purpose are :
-
build.gradle - primary tasks needed to build this project
gradlew check
gradlew -b build.gradle
Note

In fact, you do not need gradle, this project structure, wrapper or any other pieces. Only the folders and files within the ./webapp folder form the index.html landing page.
