start-examples-rest-jetty.py

start-examples-rest-jetty.py starts the Juneau REST examples application using the embedded Jetty server. This provides a live demonstration of Juneau's REST capabilities.

What It Does

The script performs these operations:

1. Locates Project - Finds the Juneau project root directory
2. Checks Build - Verifies that classes are compiled
3. Auto-Builds - Runs mvn clean compile if classes are missing
4. Starts Server - Launches the Jetty-based REST examples application
5. Handles Shutdown - Gracefully stops the server on Ctrl+C

Usage

Start the Server

cd /Users/james.bognar/git/juneau
python3 scripts/start-examples-rest-jetty.py

The server will start at http://localhost:10000/

Press Ctrl+C to stop the server.

Requirements

• Python 3.6 or higher
• Maven (mvn command must be in PATH)
• Java 17+
• No external Python dependencies (uses only standard library)

Notes

• The script automatically builds the project if needed
• The server runs in the foreground
• Swagger UI is typically available at http://localhost:10000/swagger-ui
