Welcome to the world of seamless Java project setups! This guide will walk you through the process of starting your Java projects using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles.
Introduction
This repository serves as a fantastic starting point if you aim to bootstrap a Java project with JUnit and Gradle. If you’re looking for a structured approach, you can dive deeper into the topic with the CodelyTV Pro course that explains everything step-by-step (available in Spanish).
How To Start
Follow these simple steps to get your Java project up and running:
- Install Java 11:
brew cask install corretto - Set it as your default JVM:
export JAVA_HOME=Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/amazon-corretto-11.jdk/Contents/Home - Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/CodelyTV/java-ddd-example - Bring up the Docker environment:
make up - Execute some Gradle lifecycle tasks to check everything is OK:
- Create the project JAR:
make build - Run the tests and plugins verification tasks:
make test
- Create the project JAR:
- Start developing!
How to Update Dependencies
Updating dependencies is straightforward. Use the following command to update Gradle:
./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=WANTED_VERSION --distribution-type=binUnderstanding the Setup Process with an Analogy
Imagine you are setting up a new bakery. Instead of gathering each ingredient and tool one by one, you can simply order a bakery kit. This kit comes with everything you need, from flour to baking pans, just like the boilerplate code you’re using to start your Java project.
In this analogy, the steps you take to set up your project are similar to how you would follow the baking instructions provided with the kit. Each step (installing Java, cloning the repo, bringing up Docker) ensures that all necessary elements are in place, allowing you to focus on creating delicious cakes (or writing efficient code) without worrying about the mundane tasks.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues during setup, here are some troubleshooting tips:
- Ensure that you have the correct version of Java installed. You can check your Java version by running
java -version. - If issues arise when starting Docker, make sure it’s properly installed and running on your machine.
- Check that your environment variables are correctly set up, especially JAVA_HOME.
