Dockerizing multi module Spring Boot application using JIB plugin

I have a Spring boot Application and using spotify plugin to Dockerize my application.So, I will have a Dockerfile like the below one.

FROM jdk1.8:latest  

RUN mkdir -p /opt/servie

COPY target/service.war /opt/service

ENV JAVA_OPTS="" \
    JAVA_ARGS=""

CMD java ${JAVA_OPTS} -jar /opt/service/service.war ${JAVA_ARGS}

I came across JIB and it looks really cool. But, struggling to get it working.

I added the pom entry below.

<plugin>
        <groupId>com.google.cloud.tools</groupId>
        <artifactId>jib-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>0.9.6</version>
        <configuration>
          <from>
            <image>jdk1.8:latest</image>
          </from>
          <to>
            <image>docker.hub.com/test/service</image>
          </to>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>

mvn compile jib:build

I see the following.

[INFO] Building dependencies layer... [INFO] Building classes layer... [INFO] Building resources layer...

When i run the docker image, it says, Jar file does not exist. I have a multi module maven project and would like to dockerize multiple module on running mvn compile jib:build from the parent pom. Any help on this?

jib:build will try to push image to some repo. If you need to build only you need to use mvn jib:dockerBuild

For multimodule project just configure plugin accordingly in child projects like this:

<executions>
    <execution>
        <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>dockerBuild</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
</executions>

by using the jib maven plugin you don't need to write a docker file, jib build directly the image for you without exposing a dockerfile.

I think that in your pom.xml switching the packaging from 'war' to 'jar'

would be enough to let you run successfully 

mvn compile jib:build

(will fail if docker.hub.com/test/service is a private repository, in this case you need either to switch to public or to provide your credentials)

Yes indeed. JIB doesn't need Dockerfile or dockerd.

Sharing an example below, you can just copy it into plugins section of your pom.xml 

<plugin>  
    <groupId>com.google.cloud.tools</groupId>  
    <artifactId>jib-maven-plugin</artifactId>  
    <version>0.9.7</version>  
    <configuration>  
    <allowInsecureRegistries>true</allowInsecureRegistries>  
    <from>  
        <image>gcr.io/distroless/java</image>  
    </from>  
    <to>  
    <!-- make sure you already have created a project at Google Cloud Platform, see https://cloud.google.com/container-registry/ -->  
        <image>gcr.io/my-gcp-project/${project.artifactId}:${project.version}</image>  
        <credHelper>gcr</credHelper>  
    </to>  
    <container>  
        <jvmFlags>  
            <jvmFlag>-Xms256m</jvmFlag>  
            <jvmFlag>-Xmx512m</jvmFlag>  
            <jvmFlag>-Xdebug</jvmFlag>  
            <jvmFlag>-XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions</jvmFlag>  
            <jvmFlag>-XX:+UseCGroupMemoryLimitForHeap</jvmFlag>  
        </jvmFlags>  
        <mainClass>learnmake.microservices.RunApplication</mainClass>  
        <ports>  
            <port>8080</port>  
            <!-- <port>4000-4004/udp</port> -->  
        </ports>  
        <format>OCI</format>  
        <!-- OR <format>Docker</format> -->  
        <useCurrentTimestamp>true</useCurrentTimestamp>  
      </container>  
    </configuration>  
</plugin>

for more detailed example, see learnmake-microservices

Try to change line COPY in your Dockerfile to

COPY target/service.war /opt/service/service.war

BTW You can use WORKDIR directive in your Dockerfile to use relative path
