Setup

• Install IntelliJ IDEA 2023.2.1;
• Install openjdk-20.0.2;
• Install PostgreSQL 15.

Usage

• Clone this repo;
• Open the project;
• Choose a module that you'd like to run;
• In that module find the corresponding pom.xml file (this is the file with the project dependencies);
• By using the corresponding button reload the maven project;
• If the module uses a database, find the corresponding application.yaml file in that module;
• Enter the appropriate name, username, password and url;
• Run the main application class (the class annotated with @SpringBootApplication);
• If the module starts a web MVC application, you can access the application at localhost:8080;
• If the module starts a RESTful service, you can try using the request files in the resources folder.

Project Status

The project is in progress.

Room for Improvement

Room for improvement:

• Could add docker files for each module;

To do:
