Problem
For SparkJava 2.7.2, I'd like a known set of POM.xml dependencies and properties that work so I can kick-start my project. The settings in the SparkJava "getting started" tutorial result in exceptions.
Example POM.xml snippet
In your POM.xml, try these to start off:
<properties>
<java.version>1.8</java.version>
<maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
</properties>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
<artifactId>jetty-server</artifactId>
<version>9.4.6.v20170531</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
<version>1.7.21</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>
<version>1.7.21</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sparkjava</groupId>
<artifactId>spark-core</artifactId>
<version>2.7.2</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Notes
The above dependency versions and properties were observed to work on 2018-10-03 with SparkJava version 2.7.2. Your mileage may vary.
Once you have your SparkJava project working, feel free to change versions to suit your own project needs.
