First build the code:
gradle build -x test
Vert.x Kue requires Redis running:
redis-server
Then we can run the example:
java -jar kue-core/build/libs/vertx-blueprint-kue-core.jar -cluster
java -jar kue-http/build/libs/vertx-blueprint-kue-http.jar -cluster
java -jar kue-example/build/libs/vertx-blueprint-kue-example.jar -cluster
Then you can visit http://localhost:8080
to inspect the queue via Kue UI in the browser.
To run HighKue with Docker Compose:
docker-compose up --build
Then you can run your applications in the terminal. For example:
java -jar kue-example/build/libs/vertx-blueprint-kue-example.jar -cluster
