java -jar application.jar
Of course to do anything more than starting our application we need to know its PID. Spring Boot has a solution named ApplicationPidListener. To use it we need to tell SpringApplication we want to include this listener. And there are to ways to achieve that.
Easiest way it to create file META-INF/spring.factories containing lines:
org.springframework.context.ApplicationListener=\ org.springframework.boot.actuate.system.ApplicationPidListener
Second way allows us to customize listener by specifying own name or location for PID file.
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication springApplication =
new SpringApplication(Application.class);
springApplication.addListeners(
new ApplicationPidListener("app.pid"));
springApplication.run(args);
}
}
Now, when we already have our PID file we need bash script providing standard operations like stop, start, restart and status checking. Below you can find simple script solving that challenge. Of course remember to customize highlighted lines :)
