dockds

With a little help of Docker embed PostgreSQL or MySQL in your Spring Boot application or test just as you can do with H2 or HSQLDB.

Usage

Assuming you have either PostgreSQL or MySQL driver in your depedencies list, just add yet the following dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>pl.touk</groupId>
  <artifactId>dockds</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.0</version>
  <!-- Probably in most cases you will want -->
  <!-- <scope>test</scope> -->
</dependency>

Unless you have a datasource url specifified in application.properties a database instance in a Docker container will be launched along with your applicaton context.

Just as if you had an embedded database (e.g. HSQLDB) driver in your pom.xml.

If you have tests using an embedded database with @DataJpaTest annotation, you substitute it with @DockerizedDataJpaTest. This way you will be able to use native queries in your JPA repositories.

Getting Started

1. Complete guide Accessing Data with JPA
2. Add the above dependency to pom.xml or build.gradle
3. Replace H2 with PostgreSQL or MySQL in the pom.xml or build.gradle
4. Replace @DataJpaTest with @DockerizedDataJpaTest in CustomerRepositoryTests (which is not described in the guide but is available in the provided source repository)
