将带有 Gradle 的单片 Spring 引导应用程序转换为多模块失败

Question

Actually I have an monolithic spring boot app with gradle and I want to covert it into multi module. It just a simple app to do CRUD book.

My app structure like the following,

simple-app
| src/main/java/example/simpleapp
| -------------------------------/controller`
| -------------------------------/exception
| -------------------------------/model
| -------------------------------/repository
| -------------------------------/service
| -------------------------------SimpleAppAplication
| build.gradle
| settings.gradle

step by step I separate all the package into module, then my folder structure changed to like the following

simple-app
| controller
| | src
| | build.gradle
| exception
| | src
| | build.gradle
| main-app
| | src
| | build.gradle
| model
| | src
| | build.gradle
| repository
| | src
| | build.gradle
| service
| | src
| | build.gradle
| build.gradle
| settings.gradle

if I run the project, It working just fine and return the result that should be return.

But, when I build the project, It turn into error like this.

PC:~/simple-app$ ./gradlew build
> Task :repository:compileJava FAILED
/simple-appp/repository/src/main/java/example/simpleapp/repository/BookRepository.java:3: error: package nanihutagaol.simpleapp.model does not exist

I don't understand why it turn error like that, because the model package was exist. Hope one of you can give an solution.

thanks before...

I finally can solve the error, after trying to understand other similar topic.

So my first syntax on root/build.gradle are as follows

plugins {
    id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.3.0.RELEASE'
    id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.9.RELEASE'
    id 'java'
}
group = 'example'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

configurations {
    compileOnly {
        extendsFrom annotationProcessor
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation project(":main-app")
}

test {
    useJUnitPlatform()
}

subprojects {
    apply plugin: 'org.springframework.boot'
    apply plugin: 'io.spring.dependency-management'
    apply plugin: 'java'
}

Then I update it by adding the following code, on the root/build.gradle and subprojects/build.gradle

bootJar {
  enabled = false
}

jar {
  enabled = true
}

Based on guide on https://spring.io/guides/gs/multi-module/ , that code used to tell Gradle to not build an executable jar for the Library project.

I don't know why I miss this step before. So, my last root/build.gradle will look like

plugins {
    id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.3.0.RELEASE'
    id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.9.RELEASE'
    id 'java'
}

group = 'example'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'

bootJar {
    enabled = false
}

jar {
    enabled = true
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation project(":main-app")
}

test {
    useJUnitPlatform()
}

subprojects {
    apply plugin: 'org.springframework.boot'
    apply plugin: 'io.spring.dependency-management'
    apply plugin: 'java'

    group = 'example'
    version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
    sourceCompatibility = '1.8'

    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    
    bootJar {
        enabled = false
    }

    jar {
        enabled = true
    }
}

Then I update all my subproject/build.gradle , by just adding dependencies tag. For example repository/build.gradle

dependencies {
    implementation project(":model")
    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa'
    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
}

That's all my problem explanation... :)
