Create a website with Spring Boot + Gradle (jdk1.8.x)

What is this?

How do you create a website in Java? In the first step, the deliverable will only display one HTML page. This article aims to operate a web server and display it on a browser. If it works, I think it's a good idea to make corrections and remember it.

Confirmed system requirements

In August 2020, we confirmed the operation with the following requirements.

The sample code used here can be found on GitHub.

1. Procedure: First try to move

1.1. Create and move the Project directory

Terminal


$ mkdir -p helloworld; cd $_

1.2. Initialize Gradle Project

Terminal


$ gradle init

From here, you can proceed interactively, so select as follows.

  1. Select type of project to generate >> 2: application
  2. Select implementation language >> 3: Java
  3. Select build script DSL >> 1: Groovy
  4. Select test framework >> 1: JUnit 4
  5. Project name (default: helloworld) >> helloworld
  6. Source package (default: ) >> helloworld

This completes the initialization of the Gradle Project.

1.3. Clone the sample code

Terminal


$ git clone https://github.com/ryoyakawai/java_gradle_springboot_helloworld.git

1.4. Try starting the web server

Terminal


$ cd java_gradle_springboot_helloworld
$ gradle bootRun

If you start it without any errors, you should see the following in Terminal:

Terminal


> Task :bootRun

Check the operation from the browser here.

If you access http: // localhost: 8080 with a browser and the following is displayed, it means that the web server is operating normally. sample00

2. Description of contents

2.1 About files

This is the file structure immediately after cloning in "1.3. Clone sample code". I made some changes after executing "1.2. Initialize Gradle Project" in the part where the explanation is written on the right side of the file and directory in the figure below.

├── build.gradle (Must be modified: Gradle config file)
├── settings.gradle
└── src
    ├── main
    │   ├── java
    │   │   └── helloworld  (The following must be modified: Program code)
    │   │       ├── HelloworldApplication.java

            └── helloworld
                └── HelloworldApplicationTests.java  (Must be modified: test file)

2.2. Description of each file

--build.gradle: Write the Build settings. Modifications are required as necessary. --settings.gradle: Describe the project name that will be the entry point.

src> main> java> helloworld The following files

--HelloworldApplication.java: Declares to use the Spring Boot framework. --HelloworldController.java: Controller class. It mainly describes what Path is accessed and what is displayed. --HelloworldErrorController.java: A class that handles application errors. It needs to be modified accordingly. --HelloworldServletInitializer.java: WebApplicationInitializer implementation class required in the environment where the WAR file is deployed and operated. (Although it exists, it is not used in the operation here and is not necessary originally)

src> main> resources The following files

Place HTML files etc. in this directory.

--ʻApplication.yml: The YML file that defines the message. --templates> error.html: HTML to be displayed when an error occurs. --templates> helloworld.html: HTML to be displayed during normal operation. --static> assets`: Images should be placed here.
