Boost

Boost includes a Maven and Gradle plugin to make it easier to build your MicroProfile applications.

There are two, separate active Boost projects.

• Boost Maven Plugin, BOMs, and Boosters (boost-maven)
• Boost Common Resources (boost-common)

with a Boost Gradle project under development.

Developing Boost

If you are interested in contributing to Boost, read the wiki for more information.

If you are interested in the Boost runtime adapter mechanism, it is described in greater detail in the Boost Runtimes page of the wiki.

Building Boost

You will need to build the boost-common project before building the boost-maven project. We provide some scripts below to simplify this process.

Boost Maven Plugin

To build the Boost Maven Plugin:

Windows:

./boost-maven.bat

Mac/Linux:

./boost-maven.sh
