The bootstrapper designed and developed for Isshoni, with the intention to support a wide-range of Java applications to facilitate innovation while not wasting time on boilerplate design requirements.
This tool was written with and requires Java 17
This tool is currently in beta until the version number says 1.0.0, please expect bugs/instability when using it.
Usage varies slightly depending on if you intend to create a library that utilizes Winry, or an application
using Winry. A library will need to use an @Loader annotation, while an application must use an @Bootstrap
annotation on the "main class" of the program.
A @Bootstrap annotation contains various program metadata and needs a nested @Loader annotation to determine load
targets. A library only needs to declare its load targets, because it's not an application and therefore doesn't
need the @Bootstrap. When using a library, make sure that you just load the class with the @Loader annotation
on it, the library should take care of the rest of the discovery and registration necessary.
TODO
I have a maven repository where I publish builds, here is how you would import it as a dependency with gradle:
repositories {
maven {
url = 'https://repo.isshoni.institute'
}
}
dependencies {
api 'tv.isshoni:winry:0.64.3'
}Design inspired by SpringBoot and previous projects I have worked on. This is a library designed to make bootstrapping any type of Java application as painless and as easy as using SpringBoot. Some major features are:
- Singleton dependency management, register & inject dependencies with ease.
- Event based, winry is backed by an event bus that can be configured to fire specific events during the lifecycle.
- Integer-based weighting system, to keep things running smoothly and in order, all "executables" in the winry bootstrapping lifecycle are integer weighted.
- Built to be extended, register new annotations, add more functionality to pre-existing ones, or add new lifecycle events.
- Import libraries that add their own lifecycle events and gain specialized functionality, i.e. game engine, or, REST webserver.

TODO, while I'm working on a good basic tutorial, check out the integration tests.
