F... Keytool Helper Project

This is a java keytool helper project.

Keytool per se does not provide much on the way of checking the generated keys. This is a first attempt on solving it.

Usage: fkeytoolhelper [-hV] <filename> <alias> <keystorePassword> <entryPassword>
      <filename>           The filename.
      <alias>              The alias.
      <keystorePassword>   The keystore password.
      <entryPassword>      The entry password.
  -h, --help               Show this help message and exit.
  -V, --version            Print version information and exit.

Quarkus

This project uses Quarkus.

Running the application in dev mode

You can run your application in dev mode that enables live coding using:

./mvnw compile quarkus:dev

NOTE: Quarkus now ships with a Dev UI, which is available in dev mode only at http://localhost:8080/q/dev/.

Packaging and running the application

The application can be packaged using:

./mvnw package

It produces the quarkus-run.jar file in the target/quarkus-app/ directory. Be aware that it’s not an über-jar as the dependencies are copied into the target/quarkus-app/lib/ directory.

The application is now runnable using java -jar target/quarkus-app/quarkus-run.jar.

If you want to build an über-jar, execute the following command:

./mvnw package -Dquarkus.package.type=uber-jar

The application, packaged as an über-jar, is now runnable using java -jar target/*-runner.jar.

Creating a native executable

You can create a native executable using:

./mvnw package -Pnative

Or, if you don't have GraalVM installed, you can run the native executable build in a container using:

./mvnw package -Pnative -Dquarkus.native.container-build=true

You can then execute your native executable with: ./target/fkeytoolhelper-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-runner

If you want to learn more about building native executables, please consult https://quarkus.io/guides/maven-tooling.

Picocli Example

Hello and goodbye are civilization fundamentals. Let's not forget it with this example picocli application by changing the command and parameters.

Also for picocli applications the dev mode is supported. When running dev mode, the picocli application is executed and on press of the Enter key, is restarted.

As picocli applications will often require arguments to be passed on the commandline, this is also possible in dev mode via:

./mvnw compile quarkus:dev -Dquarkus.args='Quarky'
