Spring PetClinic Sample Application With Lombok

Running petclinic locally

With Maven command line

git clone https://github.com/spring-petclinic/spring-framework-petclinic.git
cd spring-framework-petclinic
./mvnw jetty:run-war
# For Windows : ./mvnw.cmd jetty:run-war

With Docker

docker run -p 8080:8080 springcommunity/spring-framework-petclinic

You can then access petclinic here: http://localhost:8080/

Database configuration

In its default configuration, Petclinic uses an in-memory database (HSQLDB) which gets populated at startup with data. A similar setups is provided for MySQL and PostgreSQL in case a persistent database configuration is needed. To run petclinic locally using persistent database, it is needed to run with profile defined in main pom.xml file.

For MySQL database, it is needed to run with 'MySQL' profile defined in main pom.xml file.

./mvnw jetty:run-war -P MySQL

Before do this, would be good to check properties defined in MySQL profile inside pom.xml file.

<properties>
    <jpa.database>MYSQL</jpa.database>
    <jdbc.driverClassName>com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver</jdbc.driverClassName>
    <jdbc.url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/petclinic?useUnicode=true</jdbc.url>
    <jdbc.username>root</jdbc.username>
    <jdbc.password>petclinic</jdbc.password>
</properties>

You could start MySQL locally with whatever installer works for your OS, or with docker:

docker run -e MYSQL_USER=petclinic -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=petclinic -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root -e MYSQL_DATABASE=petclinic -p 3306:3306 mysql:5.7.8

For PostgreSQL database, it is needed to run with 'PostgreSQL' profile defined in main pom.xml file.

./mvnw jetty:run-war -P PostgreSQL

Before do this, would be good to check properties defined in PostgreSQL profile inside pom.xml file.

<properties>
    <jpa.database>POSTGRESQL</jpa.database>
    <jdbc.driverClassName>org.postgresql.Driver</jdbc.driverClassName>
    <jdbc.url>jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/petclinic</jdbc.url>
    <jdbc.username>postgres</jdbc.username>
    <jdbc.password>petclinic</jdbc.password>
</properties>

You could also start PostgreSQL locally with whatever installer works for your OS, or with docker:

docker run --name postgres-petclinic -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=petclinic -e POSTGRES_DB=petclinic -p 5432:5432 -d postgres:9.6.0

Working with Petclinic in your IDE

Prerequisites

The following items should be installed in your system:

• Java 8 or above
• Maven 3.3+ (http://maven.apache.org/install.html)
• git command line tool (https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git)
• Jetty 9.4+ or Tomcat 9+
• Your prefered IDE
  • Eclipse with the m2e plugin. Note: when m2e is available, there is an m2 icon in Help -> About dialog. If m2e is not there, just follow the install process here: http://www.eclipse.org/m2e/
  • Spring Tools Suite (STS)
  • IntelliJ IDEA

Steps:

1. On the command line

git clone https://github.com/spring-petclinic/spring-framework-petclinic.git

2. Inside Eclipse or STS

File -> Import -> Maven -> Existing Maven project

Then either build on the command line ./mvnw generate-resources or using the Eclipse launcher (right click on project and Run As -> Maven install) to generate the CSS. Configure a Jetty or a Tomcat web container then deploy the spring-petclinic.war file.

3. Inside IntelliJ IDEA

In the main menu, select File > Open and select the Petclinic pom.xml. Click on the Open button.

CSS files are generated from the Maven build. You can either build them on the command line ./mvnw generate-resources or right click on the spring-petclinic project then Maven -> Generates sources and Update Folders.

Go to the Run -> Edit Configuration then configure a Tomcat or a Jetty web container. Deploy the spring-petclinic.war file. Run the application by clicking on the Run icon.

4. Navigate to Petclinic

Visit http://localhost:8080 in your browser.
