A canonical setup for a modular Java application using Bach as its build tool.

Module application

Find sources of module application in the application directory. The application module consists of two source files: a module declaration and a main program. Here's their outline:

• application/module-info.java

  module application {
    // ...
  }
  

• application/application/Main.java

  package application;
  class Main {
    // ...
  }
  

By convention, the name of the directory matches the name of the module.

Configuration

A specific version of Bach is initialized in directory: .bach This ensures this project is always buildable via calling .bach/bin/bach[.bat] build.

Sample workflows running on GitHub Actions can be found in directory: .github Adopt them to your likings.

An exemplary configuration of IntelliJ's IDEA is provided in directory: .idea Open this project with IDEA to build and run it on your machine.
