    jimmer

    jimmer

    A revolutionary ORM framework for both java and kotlin.

    A revolutionary ORM framework for both Java and kotlin and a complete integrated solution. You can view everything from the documentation. Brings dynamism into static language ORM frameworks, achieving flexible capabilities for operating on complex dynamic data structures without compromising the complete compile-time safety checks of static languages, eliminating DTO explosion and unafraid of engineering expansion and changing requirements. Its innovative SQL DSL supports dynamic table joins and native SQL embedding, gracefully handling real-world complexity. Focuses on business and reaping caching gains. CDC solutions decoupled from specific caching technologies are transparent to business code. Requires no special prior knowledge - veterans of any ORM can quickly and painlessly migrate.

    Mockito

    Mockito

    Most popular Mocking framework for unit tests written in Java

    Mockito downloads and instructions for setting up Maven, Gradle and other build systems are available from the Central Repository and Bintray. Mockito 3.x requires Java 8, but otherwise doesn’t introduce any breaking changes compared to the 2.x series. Mockito 2.25.0 had an important feature added for anyone using mockito-inline. In particular anyone using Kotlin (which demands using mockito-inline) and PowerMock (which exacerbates the problem even more) will want to add this to all of their test classes to avoid a large memory leak. Fancy getting world-wide visibility and building up an eternal fame of an OSS contributor? Use the latest version! Hack and experiment. Speak up at the mailing list. Mockito is a mocking framework that tastes really good. It lets you write beautiful tests with a clean & simple API. Mockito doesn’t give you hangover because the tests are very readable and they produce clean verification errors.

    Mixin

    Mixin

    Mixin is a trait/mixin and bytecode weaving framework for Java

    Mixin is a trait/mixin framework for Java using ASM and hooking into the runtime classloading process via a set of pluggable built-in or user-provided services. Built-in services currently support Mojang's LegacyLauncher system, though this is deprecated in favor of ModLauncher by cpw, which has greater extensibility and has support for Java 8 and later. Additional documentation for individual features and annotations can be found in the extensive Javadoc. For additional help use the channel #mixin on the Sponge Discord Server. For handling obfuscation tasks, Mixin provides an Annotation Processor which works at compile time to generate obfuscation mappings for your toolchain to apply. If using Gradle 5 or later, annotation processors are no longer automatically loaded from compile configurations and must be specified explicitly via annotationProcessor configurations.

    Simple Binary Encoding (SBE)

    Simple Binary Encoding (SBE)

    Simple Binary Encoding (SBE) - High Performance Message Codec

    SBE is an OSI layer 6 presentation for encoding and decoding binary application messages for low-latency financial applications. This repository contains the reference implementations in Java, C++, Golang, C#, and Rust. More details on the design and usage of SBE can be found on the Wiki. An XSD for SBE specs can be found here. Please address questions about the specification to the SBE FIX community. For the latest version information and changes see the Change Log with downloads at Maven Central. The Java and C++ SBE implementations work very efficiently with the Aeron messaging system for low-latency and high-throughput communications. The Java SBE implementation has a dependency on Agrona for its buffer implementations.

    Besu Ethereum Client

    Besu Ethereum Client

    An enterprise-grade Java-based, Apache 2.0 licensed Ethereum client

    You can use Besu to develop enterprise applications requiring secure, high-performance transaction processing in a private network. A private network is a network not connected to Ethereum Mainnet or an Ethereum testnet. Private networks typically use a different chain ID and proof of authority consensus (QBFT, IBFT 2.0, or Clique). You can also create a local development network using proof of work (Ethash). Instructions for how to get started with developing on the Besu codebase. Please also read the wiki for more details on how to submit a pull request (PR). Besu is an Apache 2.0 licensed, MainNet compatible, Ethereum client written in Java. Participation in private networks is typically restricted in some way, so the volume of traffic is much lower than on Mainnet, resulting in lower system requirements. Depending on your environment and network setup, the minimum Java Virtual Machine (JVM) memory requirement for private networks is 4 GB.

    picocli

    picocli

    Framework for building GraalVM-enabled command line apps

    Picocli is a one-file framework for creating Java command-line applications with almost zero code. It supports a variety of command-line syntax styles including POSIX, GNU, MS-DOS and more. It generates highly customizable usage help messages that use ANSI colors and styles to contrast important elements and reduce the cognitive load on the user. Picocli-based applications can have command line TAB completion showing available options, option parameters, and subcommands, for any level of nested subcommands. Picocli-based applications can be ahead-of-time compiled to a GraalVM native image, with extremely fast startup time and lower memory requirements, which can be distributed as a single executable file. Picocli generates beautiful documentation for your application (HTML, PDF and Unix man pages). Another distinguishing feature of picocli is how it aims to let users run picocli-based applications without requiring picocli as an external dependency.
