Reactive Streams

For Maven projects, it's recommended that you import the Bill of Materials (BOM) together with the core, as it ensures that Reactor components work well together.

1. In the pom.xml file, add the following dependency to import the BOM:

   <dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>io.projectreactor<groupId> <artifactId>reactor-bom<artifactId> <version>Dysprosium-SR1<version> <type>pom</type> <scope>import<scope> <dependency> <dependencies> <dependencyManagement>

2. Add the following dependency to import Reactor:

   <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>io.projectreactor<groupId> <artifactId>reactor-core<artifactId> <dependency> <dependencies>

For Gradle projects, it's recommended that you import the Bill of Materials (BOM) together with the core, as it ensures that Reactor components work well together.

• In the build.gradle, add the following dependencies:

  dependencies { // import BOM implementation platform('io.projectreactor:reactor-bom:Dysprosium-SR1') // add dependencies without a version number implementation 'io.projectreactor:reactor-core' }

For Gradle projects, it's recommended that you import the Bill of Materials (BOM) together with the core, as it ensures that Reactor components work well together.

Previous Gradle versions don't support the BOM, however, you can use the Spring gradle-dependency-management plugin to import it to your project.

1. Obtain the plugin from Gradle Plugin Portal by adding the following code to build.gradle:

   plugins { id "io.spring.dependency-management" version "1.0.6.RELEASE" }

2. Import the BOM by adding the following code:

   dependencyManagement { imports { mavenBom "io.projectreactor:reactor-bom:Dysprosium-SR1" } }

3. Add Reactor support:

   dependencies { compile 'io.projectreactor:reactor-core' }

If you build your project with the native IDE builder, you can add Reactor support as a library.

1. From the main menu, select File | Project Structure Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S or click on the toolbar.

2. Select Libraries, click , and then select From Maven.

3. In the dialog that opens, specify the library artifact io.projectreactor:reactor-core:jar:3.3.0.RELEASE and click OK.

   

1. Launch IntelliJ IDEA.

   If the Welcome screen opens, click New Project.

   Otherwise, from the main menu, select File | New | Project.

2. Select Spring Initializr from the left pane.

   • Click to enter the URL of the service that you want to use, or leave the default one.

   • Specify a name and location for your project and configure project metadata: select a language, a build tool, and specify an artifact ID.

   • From the JDK list, select the JDK that you want to use in your project.

     If the JDK is installed on your computer, but not defined in the IDE, select Add JDK and specify the path to the JDK home directory.

     If you don't have the necessary JDK on your computer, select Download JDK.

   

   Click Next.

3. On the next step of the wizard, from the Dependencies list, select Spring Reactive Web and click Create.
