just build

What does it do?

just build simplifies building Spring Boot applications with Maven and Gradle.

Executing just build <target> picks up the best Maven/Gradle command (mvn, ./mvnw, mvnd, gradle, ./gradlew) and translates the target into a Maven or Gradle goal depending on which build tool is used in the project:

Command	Description	Maven	Gradle
just build or just build jvm	builds a default target (if not configured, builds an executable jar)	mvn package	gradle build
just build native	builds a native executable	mvn native:compile -Pnative	gradle nativeCompile
just build native-image	builds a Docker Image with a native executable	mvn spring-boot:build-image -Pnative	gradle bootBuildImage
just build image	builds a Docker Image with an executable JAR	mvn spring-boot:build-image	gradle bootBuildImage

Options
