Powerful feature in Gretty 0.0.24 - full support of Spring Boot 1.1.0

Today is a wonderful day: Spring Boot 1.1.0 was released and I released Gretty version 0.0.24.

Gretty is a feature-rich gradle plugin for running web-apps on Jetty. It supports multiple Jetty versions (7, 8 and 9), multiple web-apps and many more. It wraps Jetty functions as convenient Gradle tasks and configuration DSL. A complete list of Gretty features is available in feature overview.

There is new powerful feature in Gretty 0.0.24: it supports running Spring Boot web-apps out-of-the-box. All Gretty features, including (but not limited to) debugging, code coverage and integration tests, also apply to spring-boot web-apps.

Simplest Gretty setup with Spring Boot:

You get Gretty as maven artifacts at jcenter and maven central under the group "org.akhikhl.gretty".

Gitbucket – your own github-like web-application without a hassle

Meet gitbucket – your own github-like web-application, requiring minimum configuration:

https://github.com/takezoe/gitbucket

Features:

• out-of-the-box HTTP access to git repositories (in browser and from command line)
• web-based user management
• web-based repository management
• issue management, pull-requests, wiki, etc.

Not yet implemented features:

• out-of-the-box SSH support (or integration with SSH-supporting solutions like gitolite)
• online editing

My impression: this is very interesting application that I will certainly use as soon as missing features get implemented.

Meet Gretty: gradle plugin for running web-applications under Jetty 8.1.8

I created little gradle plugin for running web-applications under Jetty 8.1.8.

The main advantage for a programmer is that now it’s possible to use servlet-api 3.0 and higher (under standard gradle-jetty plugin it was not possible, because jetty was too old).
