How to build standalone jar?

[jkindwall]

I'm interested in running WireMock in Standalone mode. The documentation says to use this command:

$ java -jar wiremock-1.30-standalone.jar

However, I've thus far been unable to build this jar file. I tried running "gradle build", and it got part way through the build process before failing with:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  Execution failed for task ':signArchives'.

  Cannot perform signing task ':signArchives' because it has no configured signatory

In spite of this failure, it appears that the task did manage to build the following jars:

wiremock-1.31.jar
wiremock-1.31-javadoc.jar
wiremock-1.31-sources.jar

but not

wiremock-1.31-standalone.jar

I'm not seeing any other gradle tasks that look like they're used to build the standalone jar. Am I missing something?

Hi,

Two options:

1. If you just want to use the JAR (rather than modifying it in any way) you can download it directly from Maven Central: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/github/tomakehurst/wiremock/1.31/wiremock-1.31-standalone.jar

2. if you want to build it, use the following:
   gradle clean build jarAll

Hope that helps,
Tom

Thanks.

Tried that gradle build command, but I'm still getting a failure on the "signArchives" task and it never gets far enough to create the standalone jar.

However I was able to download the standalone jar from the link you provided, and that should be sufficient for now.

Ah sorry, I forgot to mention you need to install PGP for the signing step to work.

Sorry for posting in an old issue @tomakehurst, but I'm wondering if you have a basic build/development environment setup doc somewhere on github or wiremock.org?

I'm trying to integrate wiremock into an automated testing framework currently using cppunit (but hopefully moving to catch). I've come across a couple of issues that ended up being unrelated to wiremock, but it would be lovely to be able to build and debug wiremock via, say, intellij or eclipse. Its been a while since I've used Java extensively (and even then it was android); do you have any sort of quick start guide you would consider sharing?

Apologies if such a guide already exists and I haven't uncovered it in my searches!

[tomakehurst]

Assume you mean building WireMock from source?

To test ./gradlew test
To build both JARs: ./gradlew clean jar shadowJar

I tried running gradle clean build jarAll

But Facing issues:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• Where:
  Build file '/home/kritikagoyal/repos/wiremock/build.gradle' line: 128
