Please leave a Github issue.

Examples

• Example of common dependencies: spring-boot-web-app -> api -> (blog) <- blog-storage : (Container -> Web Component -> Domain <- Storage Details)

Project Structure

Components are defined in components and executables are defined in containers. Gradle ties them all together via Multi-Project builds (https://docs.gradle.org/3.3/userguide/multi_project_builds.html).

1. Make a settings.gradle file:

touch settings.gradle

2. Define a new project in the root settings.gradle file:

include 'components/blog'

3. Make a directory matching the above:

mkdir -p components/blog

4. drop a build.gradle file into the components/blog directory.

touch components/blog/build.gradle

5. Include components/blog code into other projects:

dependencies {
    compile(project(":components/blog"))
}
