How to store data locally? (Spring Boot)

[LiveNathan]

I have been around and around and around this for hours today and I cannot understand: How do you store data locally during development? (feeling very frustrated)

I your spring boot example. It runs, but if you stop it and then start it again, nothing is persisted. Why? How can you do local development is nothing actually persisted.

This is the same problem with my own demo project. Nothing is persisted.

I have been over and over the documentation. It's very confusing. I feel like this is one of those things that is SO obvious to experienced developers that they don't even think to explain??

Hallo,
It is persisted in the current directory under jokes_storage. If you launch it directly in the target directory without any modifications, the storage is created in the target directory, and each Maven clean will remove this repository.
Just add the full path under the key: org.eclipse.store.storage-directory.

Ah, ok. The funny thing is, I finally got it working by using spring-data-eclipse-store.
