Usage: $ gradle bootRun ... Edit files in src/main/resources and see the changes live in a web app (e.g. static resources in /static). The old functionality of bootRun has been replaced (since it didn't add a lot of value and also didn't expose any JMV argument setters of anything). This new feature set is backed by any existing "run" task configuration. In addition autodetects a main class if there is one in the project sources, so no need for mainClassName = '...' in build.gradle. Applies the 'application' plugin (so no need to declare that either). Fixes gh-225
Spring Boot Actuator Sample
You can build this sample using Maven (>3) or Gradle (1.6).
With Maven:
$ mvn package
$ java -jar target/*.jar
Then access the app via a browser (or curl) on http://localhost:8080 (the user name is "user" and look at the INFO log output for the password to login).
With gradle:
$ gradle build
$ java -jar build/libs/*.jar
The gradle build contains an intentionally odd configuration to exclude the security dependencies from the executable JAR. So the app run like this behaves differently than the one run from the Maven-built JAR file. See comments in the build.gradle
for details.
