The following libraries and services were upgraded to be built with Java 25 and Gradle 9 on Jenkins, to run on Java 25 and to use the latest versions of Spring Boot 3 (there applicable, of course):
Cosmic APIWeather APIStorage APIMath ParserSkos ParserMy Turnkey Jenkins LXC stopped updates via apt a month ago, so I had to update the key:
curl -fsSL https://pkg.jenkins.io/debian/jenkins.io-2026.key | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/jenkins-keyring.asc > /dev/null
And to update the repository:
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/jenkins-keyring.asc] https://pkg.jenkins.io/debian-stable binary/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jenkins.list
Also, Jenkins needs Java 21 or higher. Installing it via deb package (Zulu):
sudo dpkg -i zulu25.32.17-ca-jdk25.0.2-linux_amd64.deb
In case any dependencies are missing, install them:
sudo apt --fix-broken install -y
Finally, fix the jenkins service path:
nano /lib/systemd/system/jenkins.service
Change
ExecStart=/usr/bin/java -jar /usr/share/jenkins/jenkins.war`
to
ExecStart=/usr/bin/java -jar /usr/share/java/jenkins.war
Reload systemd:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
The next update for Clematis Desktop includes a new version of Runtime Manager UI plugin enriched with plugins downloader and installer, plus some more JVM monitors with GC marks.
There are many ideas yet to be implemented, the current list of changes is as follows:
Clematis Storage API is one of the low-level microservices, useful for the rest of applications which would like to store files. The client for Spring is now deployed to GitHub packages:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.clematis.storage</groupId>
<artifactId>storage-api-client</artifactId>
<version>1.0.2</version>
</dependency>
Documentation is ready
Keycloak adapter and Spring Boot starter are replaced with Spring Security OAuth2 configuration, the steps taken are already in the documentation
Clematis Desktop is updated to work with Java version 21. There were a few steps were made:
The project gradually accepts new language features as much of the old code is being refactored, for example, to remove the lengthy Desktop class and break down its functionality into smaller classes, organized in a more Java Swing way. More details are available in the README.
Leaving the links here to come back later:
One of the previously planned features to add to the Clematis Weather API, it is now a new repository on GitHub: https://github.com/grauds/clematis.weather. This is a work in progress, the results are yet to be improved, no releases yet, but the basic functionality is there. Used CLIP to match a weather image to a weather description.
Upgraded to Angular v20 using Nx migration tool and some manual fixes, according to the official migration guide.
