spring-boot-jib

Simple template for building a Spring Boot Demo application into a container image using the Jib maven plugin.

Usage

The Jib maven plugin can be used to create a container image:

• The jib plugin can build a tar archive of the image using the jib:buildTar goal. This can be loaded into a minikube cluster with minikube image load <image.tar> etc..

  The jib:dockerBuild goal can build the image directly to a docker daemon running running in a minikube cluster, if the required environment variables are set correctly. The output from minikube docker-env can be used to set the correct environment variables.

  (This should also work with either a local docker daemon, but I have not tested this.)

---

Examples:

• mvn clean compile jib:buildTar, creates a tar archive that can be loaded to the internal minikube cluster repo with the command: minikube image load <image.tar>)

• Use other mvn build profiles to build from a different image base or with different options (See 'pom.xml'):

  mvn clean compile jib:buildTar -P distroless default

  mvn clean compile jib:buildTar -P amazoncorretto

  mvn clean compile jib:buildTar -P amazonlambda

• Deploy image after build into docker (requires running local docker instance or other configuration.):

  mvn clean compile jib:dockerBuild
