Jose Casillas commented on APEXCORE-620:
----------------------------------------
Thank you for looking at this. I'd suggest that Apex with the ignorepom
option, auto include all jars inside the apa (or jar file?) as dependencies. A
fat jar from the gradle spring boot plugin has a format like this:
app class files
resource files
lib/dependency jars
Thanks!

> Support Fat Jar without POM, allowing Gradle and other build systems

> Key: APEXCORE-620
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-620
> Project: Apache Apex Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Jose Casillas
>
> For a project that is built with Gradle to be used in Apex, we must convert
> our suite of libraries to Maven or resort to:
> apex> launch -ignorepom -libjars x,y,z,...
> Can the launcher simply accept a jar and include all of the dependency jars
> within it, without requiring a POM or explicit declaration with -libjars?
> As a stop-gap, allowing -libjars to support a directory of dependencies would
> free us from specifying each one in the launch statement.
> The fat jar support would allow build systems other than Maven to power Apex
> applications.
