Scripting with Quarkus

Quarkus provides integration with jbang which allows you to write Java scripts/applications requiring no Maven nor Gradle to get running.

In this guide, we will see how you can write a REST application using just a single Java file.

Essa tecnologia é considerada preview.

In preview, backward compatibility and presence in the ecosystem is not guaranteed. Specific improvements might require changing configuration or APIs, and plans to become stable are under way. Feedback is welcome on our mailing list or as issues in our GitHub issue tracker.

Para obter uma lista completa de possíveis status, consulte nosso FAQ.

Pré-requisitos

Para concluir este guia, você precisa:

  • Mais ou menos 5 minutes

  • Um IDE

  • JDK 17+ installed with JAVA_HOME configured appropriately

  • Opcionalmente, Mandrel ou GraalVM instalado e configurado apropriadamente se você quiser criar um executável nativo (ou Docker se você usar uma compilação de contêiner nativo)

  • JBang

Solução

Normally we would link to a Git repository to clone but in this case there is no additional files than the following:

//usr/bin/env jbang "$0" "$@" ; exit $?
//DEPS io.quarkus.platform:quarkus-bom:3.16.3@pom
//DEPS io.quarkus:quarkus-rest
//JAVAC_OPTIONS -parameters
//JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager

import io.quarkus.runtime.Quarkus;
import jakarta.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped;
import jakarta.inject.Inject;
import jakarta.ws.rs.GET;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Path;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Produces;
import jakarta.ws.rs.core.MediaType;

@Path("/hello")
@ApplicationScoped
public class quarkusapp {

    @GET
    public String sayHello() {
        return "hello";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Quarkus.run(args);
    }

    @Inject
    GreetingService service;

    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    @Path("/greeting/{name}")
    public String greeting(String name) {
        return service.greeting(name);
    }

    @ApplicationScoped
    static public class GreetingService {

        public String greeting(String name) {
            return "hello " + name;
        }
    }
}

Arquitetura

In this guide, we create a straightforward application serving a hello endpoint with a single source file, no additional build files like pom.xml or build.gradle needed. To demonstrate dependency injection, this endpoint uses a greeting bean.

Architecture

Creating the initial file

First, we need a Java file. JBang lets you create an initial version using:

jbang init scripting/quarkusapp.java
cd scripting

This command generates a .java file that you can directly run on Linux and macOS, i.e. ./quarkusapp.java - on Windows you need to use jbang quarkusapp.java.

This initial version will print Hello World when run.

Once generated, look at the quarkusapp.java file.

You will find at the top a line looking like this:

//usr/bin/env jbang "$0" "$@" ; exit $?

This line is what on Linux and macOS allows you to run it as a script. On Windows this line is ignored.

The next lines

//DEPS <dependency1> <dependency2>

illustrate how you add dependencies to this script. This is a feature of JBang.

Go ahead and update this line to include the quarkus-bom and the quarkus-rest dependency like so:

//DEPS io.quarkus.platform:quarkus-bom:3.16.3@pom
//DEPS io.quarkus:quarkus-rest

Now, run jbang quarkusapp.java and you will see JBang resolving this dependency and building the jar with help from Quarkus' JBang integration.

$ jbang quarkusapp.java

Hello World

For now the application does nothing new.

How do I edit this file and get content assist?

To edit the JBang script in an IDE/editor with content assist you can run jbang edit quarkusapp.java or jbang edit quarkusapp.java.

For more information please refer to the the JBang documentation.

Os recursos Jakarta REST

Now let us replace the class with one that uses Quarkus features:

import io.quarkus.runtime.Quarkus;
import jakarta.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped;
import jakarta.ws.rs.GET;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Path;

@Path("/hello")
@ApplicationScoped
public class quarkusapp {

    @GET
    public String sayHello() {
        return "hello";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Quarkus.run(args);
    }
}

It’s a very simple class with a main method that starts Quarkus with a REST endpoint, returning "hello" to requests on "/hello".

Why is the main method there?

A main method is currently needed for the JBang integration to work - we might remove this requirement in the future.

Executando a aplicação

Now when you run the application you will see Quarkus start up.

Use: jbang quarkusapp.java:

$ jbang quarkusapp.java

Why is quarkus-rest not resolved?

In this second run you should not see a line saying it is resolving quarkus-rest as JBang caches the dependency resolution between runs. If you want to clear the caches to force resolution use jbang cache clear.

Utilizando injeção

Dependency injection in Quarkus is based on ArC which is a CDI-based dependency injection solution tailored for Quarkus' architecture. You can learn more about it in the Contexts and Dependency Injection guide.

ArC comes as a dependency of quarkus-rest so you already have it handy.

Let’s modify the application and add a companion bean.

Normally you would add a separate class, but as we are aiming to have it all in one file you will add a nested class.

Add the following inside the quarkusapp class body.

@ApplicationScoped
static public class GreetingService {

    public String greeting(String name) {
        return "hello " + name;
    }

}
Use of nested static public classes

We are using a nested static public class instead of a top level class for two reasons:

  1. JBang currently does not support multiple source files.

  2. All Java frameworks relying on introspection have challenges using top level classes as they are not as visible as public classes; and in Java there can only be one top level public class in a file.

Edit the quarksapp class to inject the GreetingService and create a new endpoint using it, you should end up with something like:

//usr/bin/env jbang "$0" "$@" ; exit $?
//DEPS io.quarkus.platform:quarkus-bom:3.16.3@pom
//DEPS io.quarkus:quarkus-rest

import io.quarkus.runtime.Quarkus;
import jakarta.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped;
import jakarta.inject.Inject;
import jakarta.ws.rs.GET;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Path;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Produces;
import jakarta.ws.rs.core.MediaType;

@Path("/hello")
@ApplicationScoped
public class quarkusapp {

    @GET
    public String sayHello() {
        return "hello";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Quarkus.run(args);
    }

    @Inject
    GreetingService service;

    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    @Path("/greeting/{name}")
    public String greeting(String name) {
        return service.greeting(name);
    }

    @ApplicationScoped
    static public class GreetingService {

        public String greeting(String name) {
            return "hello " + name;
        }
    }
}

Now when you run jbang quarkusapp.java you can check what the new end point returns:

$ curl -w "\n" http://localhost:8080/hello/greeting/quarkus
hello null

Now that is unexpected, why is it returning hello null and not hello quarkus?

The reason is that Quarkus REST (formerly RESTEasy Reactive) relies on the -parameters compiler flag to be set to be able to map {name} to the name parameter.

We fix that by adding the following comment instruction to the file:

//JAVAC_OPTIONS -parameters

Now when you run with jbang quarkusapp.java the end point should return what you expect:

$ curl -w "\n" http://localhost:8080/hello/greeting/quarkus
hello quarkus

Debugging

To debug the application you use jbang --debug quarkusapp.java and you can use your IDE to connect on port 4004; if you want to use the more traditional Quarkus debug port you can use jbang --debug=5005 quarkusapp.java.

Note: JBang debugging always suspends thus you need to connect the debugger to have the application run.

Registrando

To use logging in Quarkus scripting with JBang you do as usual, with configuring a logger, i.e.

public static final Logger LOG = Logger.getLogger(quarkusapp.class);

To get it to work you need to add a Java option to ensure the logging is initialized properly, i.e.

//JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager

With that in place running jbang quarkusapp.java will log and render as expected.

Configuring Application

To configure the application you can use the application.properties file as usual, but you need to add it to the script:

//FILES application.properties

// ...
@ConfigProperty(name = "prefix", defaultValue = "WG -")
String prefix;

This will make the application.properties file available to the script, and process the configuration as usual.

You can also use the application.yaml file. For this, you need to add it to the application.yaml file to the script and include the quarkus-config-yaml dependency:

//DEPS io.quarkus:quarkus-config-yaml
//FILES application.yaml
The path to the application.properties and application.yaml files are relative to the script file.

Running as a native application

If you have the native-image binary installed and GRAALVM_HOME set, or a container runtime (e.g., podman or docker) installed on Linux, you can get the native executable built and run using jbang --native quarkusapp.java:

$ jbang --native quarkusapp.java

Using Qute

You can use the Qute templating engine in your JBang script by adding the quarkus-qute dependency. You also need to include the templates directory in the script:

//DEPS io.quarkus:quarkus-qute
//FILES templates/=templates/*

// ...

 @Inject
 Template template; // Locate and load the `templates/template.html` file

If your templates directory includes sub-directories, use templates/=templates/*/ instead.

Conclusion

If you want to get started with Quarkus or write something quickly, Quarkus Scripting with jbang lets you do that. No Maven, no Gradle - just a Java file.
