-A [Jib](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib) [extension](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib-extensions) outputs the configured `jvmFlags` into the `/app/jib-jvm-flags-file` file, allowing a [custom entrypoint](https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib/tree/master/jib-maven-plugin#custom-container-entrypoint) to access these flags.

+- With shell:

 ## Usage
 
+To use the Jib JVM Flags extension in your project, configure the `jib-maven-plugin` as follows:
+
 ```xml
 <plugin>
   <groupId>com.google.cloud.tools</groupId>
   <artifactId>jib-maven-plugin</artifactId>
   <version>${jib-maven-plugin.version}</version>
   <configuration>
-    <container>
-      <jvmFlags>
-        <jvmFlag>-XshowSettings:vm</jvmFlag>
-        <jvmFlag>-Xdebug</jvmFlag>

+### Customizing Entrypoint with Java Command
+
+To customize the entrypoint using a direct Java command, for example:
+
+```xml
+<configuration>
+  <container>
+    <jvmFlags>
+      <jvmFlag>-XshowSettings:vm</jvmFlag>
+      <jvmFlag>-Xdebug</jvmFlag>
+    </jvmFlags>
+    <entrypoint>java,@/app/jib-jvm-flags-file,-cp,@/app/jib-classpath-file,@/app/jib-main-class-file</entrypoint>
+  </container>
+  <pluginExtensions>
+    <pluginExtension>
+      <implementation>tw.com.softleader.cloud.tools.jib.maven.JvmFlagsExtension</implementation>
+    </pluginExtension>
+  </pluginExtensions>
+</configuration>
+```
+
+### Customizing Entrypoint Using a Shell Script
+
+You can also use a shell script to launch your app:
+
+```sh
+#!/bin/bash
+set -e
+
+# Perform any necessary steps before starting the JVM, such as calculating and setting JVM options
+export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Xmx1g"
+
+exec java $(cat /app/jib-jvm-flags-file) -cp $(cat /app/jib-classpath-file) $(cat /app/jib-main-class-file) "$@"
+```
+
+And then configure the plugin to use this script:
+
+```xml
+<configuration>
+  <container>
+    <jvmFlags>
+      <jvmFlag>-XshowSettings:vm</jvmFlag>
+      <jvmFlag>-Xdebug</jvmFlag>
+    </jvmFlags>
+    <entrypoint>sh,/entrypoint.sh</entrypoint>
+  </container>
+  <extraDirectories>
+    <paths>
+      <path>
+        <from>.</from>
+        <includes>entrypoint.sh</includes>
+      </path>

+      <implementation>tw.com.softleader.cloud.tools.jib.maven.JvmFlagsExtension</implementation>
+    </pluginExtension>
+  </pluginExtensions>
+</configuration>
+```
+
 ### Extension Properties 
 
+You can further customize the extension with the following properties:
