04/09/2019, 7:45 AMnot directly, but with the spring boot plugin. We ended up with another module targeting JVM only and we built our executable jar form that other module

04/09/2019, 7:55 AMI'd prefer not to use spring for this project. Were you still able to access common code from your JVM module using this setup?

04/09/2019, 7:55 AMthe other module only existis to configure the aretefact. it does not contain any other code or logic
so this is not a "to spring or not to spring" question 😉
What i want to say is: at least we were not able to make use of spring boot to configure and create the jvm artifact (a jar in out case, a war in your case) when using an MPP.
But that was made wasy as soon as we introduced a new gradle module which's only use was to configure this artefact. no furhter code required

04/09/2019, 8:03 AMI think I understand what you're trying to say, I'm trying it out right now(never used multiple modules within Gradle before). Do I have to define the dependencies to be included in the war twice, once in the main build.gradle and once in the new module's build.gradle?

04/09/2019, 8:04 AMno, the new module only contains a dependency on the actual module as well as the tools you need to creater your artifact
there is not that mich of a difference between a gradle multi-module project and e.g. a maven multi-module project

04/09/2019, 8:11 AMHow do I add the dependency on the actual module?
I added the submodule to my settings.gradle.

04/09/2019, 8:27 AMimplementation project(":otherModule")but better read here: https://guides.gradle.org/creating-multi-project-builds/ 🙂
no that one makes more sense: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/multi_project_builds.html

04/09/2019, 9:13 AMFor some reason my js jar file is added into the war instead of the jvm jar file.

04/09/2019, 9:26 AMat thsi point, i can't help 😄

04/09/2019, 9:32 AMYeah, I think I will attempt writing a task that will create a war file manually using the CLI instead of the plugin as this should give me more control. Thanks a lot for your help though!
