This is a sample implementation of Atlassian's Connect Add-on. The application is built using the [Atlassian Connect Spring Boot framework](https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/atlassian-connect-spring-boot/src/master). It allows exercising the Jira Software Data Provider APIs to execute any requests to Jira Rest API on behalf of the Connect Add-on. In this module, you will compile the application source code. You will then build a docker image that contains the Spring Boot application as a JAR.

To get started, switch to the `app` folder within this repository.

```bash
cd ~/environment/aws-atlassian-connect/content/30_containerize-app/app/
```

Compile and package your code.

```bash
mvn clean package
```
