quarkus-observability-openshift

This project creates an application based on the Quarkus framework and is a companion app for this blog post: https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2025/07/07/how-quarkus-works-opentelemetry-openshift

If you want to learn more about Quarkus, please visit its website: https://quarkus.io/.

Running the application in dev mode

You can run your application in dev mode that enables live coding using:

./mvnw quarkus:dev

NOTE: Quarkus now ships with a Dev UI, which is available in dev mode only at http://localhost:8080/q/dev/.

Packaging and running the application

The application can be packaged using:

./mvnw package

It produces the quarkus-run.jar file in the target/quarkus-app/ directory. Be aware that it’s not an über-jar as the dependencies are copied into the target/quarkus-app/lib/ directory.

The application is now runnable using java -jar target/quarkus-app/quarkus-run.jar.
