When it comes to writing microservices in Java, plenty of tools and frameworks exist. In the following tutorial, I’d like to demonstrate another minimalistic framework called Bootique by implementing a simple microservice exposing its functions either as a RESTful web-service or as a runnable command executed using the command line. Bootique Command Line Dependencies Using Maven here, we’re adding the following elements to our project’s pom.xml: Bootiques Bill of Materials as dependency management: bootique-bom Bootique Jersey for our REST service: bootique-jersey Bootique Logback for logging: bootique-logback Maven Shade Plugin to assemble our fat-jar ...

There is still the urban myth that using Spring IoC container without thousands lines of XML code isn’t possible – so today we’re taking a look at annotation based configuration with Spring 3 and of course we’re using Maven.. Setup your project Create a simple Maven project using mvn archetype:generate // or mvn archetype:create Add a lot of dependencies and reference them to the Spring version defined as a property in your pom.xml. A good reference on Spring 3 and Maven artifacts can be found at Springsource.com <properties> <org.springframework.version>3.0.0.RELEASE</org.springframework.version> </properties> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-expression</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context-support</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId> <artifactId>com.springsource.org.aspectj.runtime</artifactId> <version>1.6.8.RELEASE</version> </dependency> </dependencies> ...
