Gradle is an open-source build automation tool focused on flexibility and performance. It has a mature offering of libraries,plugins, and testing. Gradle build scripts are written using a Groovy or Kotlin DSL.

Although this post focuses on installation, I also wanted to provide some links for extra value:

Plugins can be found @ https://plugins.gradle.org/

Netflix's Glisten is an ease of use Groovy library for building JVM applications with Amazon Simple Workflow Service (SWF) check out https://github.com/Netflix/glisten

Lastly, Gradle auto completion can be found @ https://github.com/gradle/gradle-completion

Spacewalk server is deployed and functional. 😎 Some general tips are add the hostname and Ip to the /etc/hosts file on your Virtualization host machine.

In order to accomplish this both machines have to be on the same network and you can edit your host file in Windows using notepad. Run as Admin and add your VM to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts .  Spinning up the VM: I used 2 Vcpu cores and 3 GiB of RAM. I allocated 50 GiB of storage. I would say these are a minimum to deploy this server. When installing the OS for your Spacewalk server, keep in mind it is essentially a database server. I used the following custom partitioning to accomplish a successful deployment because postgresql needs at least 15 GiB of space.    Follow the install process found on Github: https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/w...
