If you want to quickly try the current development version without installing anything else, see the command line section below.
Run the XeresApplication Spring Boot configuration.
- Active Profile:
dev - VM Options:
-ea -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 - CLI arguments:
--fast-shutdown
Run the Gradle bootRun target. It's in the top right Gradle panel, Tasks / application. It's already preconfigured.
(This way also works with IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, but you'll miss some extras like colored debug output and faster launch)
gradlew.bat bootRun
./gradlew bootRun
To pass arguments to Xeres, just use the args feature, for example:
./gradlew bootRun --args="--no-gui --fast-shutdown"
(Use --help to know all arguments)
When running Xeres with the dev profile, there's a built-in H2 Console available, accessible through the Debug menu.
With IntelliJ Ultimate, create the following Database connection with the built-in Datagrip client (aka the Database tool window)
- Connection type: Embedded
- Driver: H2
- Path: select
./data/userdata.mv.db. If the file is not there, run Xeres once. - Authentication: User & Password
- User:
sa - There's no password
You can also download the H2 installer (version to use: 2.1.214). Then run the H2 console with the following settings:
- Saved Settings: Generic H2 (Embedded)
- Driver Class: org.h2.Driver
- JDBC URL:
hdbc:h2:file:~/workspace/Xeres/data/userdata(put your path, and no file extension at the end!) - User Name: sa
- The password is empty
run the test task
run the clean task
- change the version in build.gradle in the wrapper section
- run the
wrappertask

Replace all '-' by '_' in their names for use in JavaFX.
master always contains the current and runnable code. Use a feature branch to work on a feature (for example, feature/165-the-feature (165 would be the ticket number, if any)). Once it's ready, have someone review it then merge to master.
Releases use tags and might use a release branches if urgent fixes are needed.
More information: Git process that works - say no to GitFlow.
Pass the following arguments to run multiple instances.
Location A:
--data-dir=./data2
Location B:
--data-dir=./data3
When running Xeres with the dev profile, JMX monitoring is available either using JConsole or VisualVM.
Simply run them and connect to the Xeres session.
