This sample repo shows how to build the beer store service using java with spring boot, jpa and flywaydb in a relational way.

The spring boot handles routing, data access, while flywaydb does database migrations. Also, we adopted the lombok agent to make java classes less verbose.

It's a gradle based project and you must have the 5.1.1 version or superior.

If you wish to develop using visual studio code, don't forget to run gradle tasks to generate .classpath eclipse files, since it uses it to properly configure a java project.

See gradle tasks output to see complete list of available tasks.

Simply open a terminal on this folder and type:

gradle build
gradle bootRun

Unlike JEE version, the output jar is a ready-to-deploy solution more aligned with modern web development. It can be executed as a simple jar file, converted into a systemd service quite easily without previously environment configuration rather than database or similar things.
