Sample aplication to demo a vertx-realworld-example-app for gothinkster. Built with vertx web to showcase the usage of vertx-boot library.

Git clone the project on your local machine and import it to your favorite ide.

For runnning this, you will need

• Java 1.8
• Gradle support - In Eclipse editor, goto help -> eclipse marketplace -> search for buildship (buildship gradle integration) and install it.

This sample application make use of Vertx-Boot library to expose sample rest APIs for [gothinkster] (gothinkster/realworld#228)

• HttpServerVerticle -> Default verticle from the vertx-boot library.
• DatabaseVerticle -> Database verticle to store the data.
• PingHandler -> Default handler from the vertx-boot library to send a "OK" Json response.

For running the app, (IDE used here is IntelliJ)

• Open appConfig.json file and set the "http_server_port" as per your choice. Also, set "mongo_config".
• Once, changes are done in appConfig.json, add/edit Run/Debug Configurations for the project("vertx-realworld-example-app") and set:
  • Main class: com.greyseal.vertx.boot.AppLauncher
  • VM options: -Dlogback.configurationFile=file:../vertx-realworld-example-app/src/main/resources/logback.xml
  • Program arguments: run com.greyseal.vertx.boot.verticle.MainVerticle -conf ../vertx-realworld-example-app/src/main/resources/appConfig.json
  • Environment variables: ENV=dev. Make sure to set this variable.
    
    

After setting the variables, Run/Debug the project. If app starts successfully, then try
