I'm using Spring Boot for a school project as a personal choice but the automated tester uses ./gradlew appRun to start the whole thing up.

This was fine before when they were using servlets but after moving to Spring Boot, I'm getting several exceptions when trying to do so.

Execution failed for task ':appRun'.

Could not get unknown property 'mainClass' for object of type org.springframework.boot.gradle.dsl.SpringBootExtension.

and this is my current build.gradle.

buildscript {

    ext {

        springBootVersion = '2.1.0.RELEASE'

    }

    repositories {

        mavenCentral()

    }

    dependencies {

        classpath "gradle.plugin.org.akhikhl.gretty:gretty:2.0.0"

        classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:${springBootVersion}")

    }

}



plugins {

    id 'org.gretty' version '2.2.0'

    id 'war'

}

apply plugin: 'groovy'

apply plugin: 'java'

apply plugin: 'eclipse'

apply plugin: 'org.springframework.boot'

apply plugin: 'io.spring.dependency-management'

apply plugin: "org.akhikhl.gretty"

    mavenCentral()

    jcenter()

}



gretty {

    contextPath = '/'

}

This all works fine when using ./gradlew bootRun but that doesn't pass the automated tester.

Is there a way to make running ./gradlew appRun start up the SpringBoot main class similarly or directly ./gradlew bootRun?

This is a gretty question. Add this line to gretty config:

gretty {

    contextPath = '/'

    springBoot = true

}
