Building and Deploying

This is a Maven multi-module project. Build it from scratch using:

mvn clean install

Build it without tests using:

mvn clean install -DskipTests

The default Maven goal is set to:

clean install

This allows you to build the project just by running mvn at the root of the project.

If you want to generate and run the project site, execute:

mvn clean install site site:stage site:run

The site will be available at http://localhost:9000, but do not except all sections to be populated, only the chapter09 subproject is documented.

This project does not necessarily require installing Apache Maven because it was configured to be run with an Apache Maven Wrapper. All previous commands can be run with ./mvnw instead of mvn.

IMPORTANT: The project was last built with the Java and Maven versions configured in the .sdkmanrc file.

Building using Docker

If you want to build the project using a Docker container, a Dockerfile is provided to you. Build the image using the following command (the 5th step is Maven build):

docker build -t java-23-bgn .

If you want to inspect the image contents, run the container image using:

docker run -it -p 9000:9000 --name java-23-bgn-build -v ${PWD}:/usr/src/java-23-for-absolute-beginners java-23-bgn
Important
Or if you are using a Linux/Unix system, you can just execute the build-and-serve.sh provided with this project and the Docker image will be built, a container will be started and used to build the project and serve the docs at http://localhost:9000/. It might take a while, but it gets the job done.

Releases

Release v1.0 corresponds to the code in the third edition of the published book, without corrections or updates.

This project was built successfully with JDK versions 23 and Maven version 4.0.0.

The syntax is specific to Java versions up to and including 23.
