Running the application locally

There are several ways to run a Spring Boot application on your local machine. One way is to execute the main method in each services for com.foxploit.ignio.<service>.<MainApplication> classes from your IDE.

• Download the zip or clone the Git repository.
• Unzip the zip file (if you downloaded one)
• Open Command Prompt and Change directory (cd) to each service folders
• Open Eclipse
  • File -> Import -> Existing Maven Project -> Navigate to the folder where you unzipped the zip
  • Select the project
• Choose the Spring Boot Application file (search for @SpringBootApplication)
• Right Click on the file and Run as Java Application

Alternatively you can use the Spring Boot Maven plugin like so:

  $ mvn spring-boot:run

Building the app

  $ mvn clean install
