Adopting JReleaser

According to its website, "JReleaser is a release automation tool. Its goal is to simplify creating releases and publishing artifacts to multiple package managers while providing customizable options.". That is the original goal of the tool since its inception in November 28th 2020 and that goal continues to be the main driver behind features and fixes added to the tool. However, in order to support this driver a few things were added along the road, things that have led people to adopt the tool for other reasons. Here’s what has happened so far: 1. Publish to Package Managers The need Read More

JReleaser’s Second Birthday

April 10th marks JReleaser’s second birthday! And I couldn’t be happier. The project has grown a lot since that fateful afternoon when Max and I were chatting on different options to release projects. It went down like this: Max spent a lot of time and energy getting JBang’s release process up to a point where he was happy with it, and I needed a way to replicate the same for Ikonli but was not looking forward to the amount of work required to make it happen. Instead, I wished there was a way to automate as much as possible, just Read More

Jarviz 0.3.0 has been released!

Jarviz v0.3.0 has just been released! This version includes plenty of improvements: additional inputs supported by all commands, multiple inputs per command, new commands, and more! Repeatable Command Inputs Jarviz original goal is to inspect JAR files. Its first 2 releases let you define the target JAR to be analyzed by setting a value for one of these flags: –gav, –url, or –file. This is OK as long as you’re analyzing a single file, but what if you want to analyze a set of files? One option would be to invoke Jarviz multiple times which is OK for trivial cases. Read More
