jreleaser VS jib

It uses JReleaser - I believe this is the simplest and the most straightforward way of signing and uploading artifacts.

https://github.com/jreleaser/helloworld-zig defines to a Helloworld app written in Zig, built for Linux and MacOS (x86_64) using GitHub Actions, releasing with JReleaser. With this setup, targeting package managers such as brew, scoop, winget, and thew like becomes much easier. Hope it can serve as a starting point for discussing how Zig built binaries may be released.

The day has come. JReleaser v1.0.0 is here! I'm beyond ecstatic to post this announcement as this release is the culmination of multiple efforts made by all contributors, taking into account feedback received by several early adopters, some of which can be seen here. Remember that all deprecated code has been removed, we recommend upgrading to v1.0.0-M3 first to find out if your build uses deprecated features before moving to v1.0.0.

This guide covers packaging and releasing CLI applications using the JReleaser tool. Built with Quarkus and packaged as native executable using GraalVM Native Image.

JReleaser may be what you are looking for...

There are a few nuances left here and there which is why I'm planning jpackage support for https://jreleaser.org

The configuration file defines the model https://github.com/jreleaser/jreleaser/blob/main/jreleaser.yml

You need to build Docker images for each app. This is specific to the JHipster application used in this tutorial which uses Jib to build the images. Make sure you are logged into Docker using docker login. Navigate to each app folder (store, invoice, product) and run the following command:

JIB

It is pretty easy to do with https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib.

Save yourself the dockerfile and use jib: https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib/tree/master/jib-maven-plugin

I first learned about Distroless because it was the default option in Google's Jib. Jib is a Maven plugin to create Docker containers without dependency on Docker. Note that the default has changed now.

Optimize your Dockerfile by using a small base Java Image, use either Spring Boot's layers tools or Google Jib to build your docker file, and increase CPU/Memory requests and limits if you can.

In this section, we will setup the automated generation and deployment of a Docker container image. You will need a Docker Hub account and the Jib Gradle Plugin.

If you don't want to hack on your own scripts to package your app into a container, I can recommend the JIB maven plugin. A gradle version is also available.
