Using the gradle example
To use the zk-gradle example project all you need is a command line interface (and preferably git - but not necessary).
Since gradle is a complex tool a basic understanding about gradle itself will help understanding the example -> please refer to the gradle documentation pages.
Download/Clone the example project
with git command line installed all you need is to clone the example repository:
git clone [email protected]:zkoss-demo/zk-gradle.git
Alternatively you can download the example as a zip-package.
Once cloned / unzipped open a command line tool in the project folder.
Useful build tasks
build the war file (in the subfolder build/libs/zk-gradle.war)
./gradlew war
run the unit tests (also creates a test report in build/reports/tests/test/index.html)
./gradlew test
combine both
./gradlew test war
list available tasks (show many more options ...)
./gradlew tasks
Run the Project
The example project uses the gradle build plugin gretty, which allows running the program with the command below:
./gradlew appRun
Once you see the following output:
17:32:19 INFO Jetty 9.2.15.v20160210 started and listening on port 8080 17:32:19 INFO zk-gradle runs at: 17:32:19 INFO http://localhost:8080/zk-gradle Press any key to stop the server.
The server has started and you can access the test page under:
http://localhost:8080/zk-gradle
Import a Gradle project into your IDE
The example project doesn't include or require any IDE specific settings and can be imported into your preferred IDE supporting gradle.
In Eclipse you can use the buildship plugin For IntelliJ IDEA just follow the Help page: Working with Gradle Projects
