# server

if someone knows an alternative I'm up for suggestions 🙂

[asad.awadia]

Use javalin instead #javalin

[David]

Honestly, I chose Spring due to its features apart from the Webserver part, also the project is already done so I don't want to rework it 😛

[Arian Stolwijk]

Maybe aws beanstalk

[David]

No I don't want cloud, it's just to run locally

[Arian Stolwijk]

Locally? Just run the built jar

[Arian Stolwijk]

Or with the gradle of maven spring boot plugin

[David]

Yes but the problem of https://app.slack.com/client/T09229ZC6/C0B8RC352/thread/C0B8RC352-1615590565.044000
Remains

What problem is that - I can't read it. With sprint you should end up with an Uber Jar and you can literally start it by doing java -jar your_project-0.1.jar

[David]

Yes I can, but imagine I have an instance of it already running on my PC, and I'm developing something, when finishing the development, I would need to replace the Jar in the "production" folder and restart the server

[David]

However, if I could maven deploy it, I would just run that command on IDEA and it would go there "automatically"

[Dariusz Kuc]

I think you are misunderstanding what maven deploy plugin does -> it is deploying artifact to a remote repository (like nexus) vs install plugin that just saves it locally

[David]

I guess if I had an application server I could maven deploy to it

[Dariusz Kuc]

You would use different plugin but yes. As suggested by others I'd just run using spring boot plugin (or if you really want to overeengineer it you could run it inside a container and replace containers whenever new version is published)
