It is not recommended to store binary files in a source repository. Therefore, you must define a build which pulls additional files, such as Java `.jar` dependencies, during the build process. How this is done depends on the build strategy you are using.
For a Source build strategy, you must put appropriate shell commands into the `assemble` script:
.`.s2i/bin/assemble` File
[source,terminal]
----
#!/bin/sh
APP_VERSION=1.0
wget http://repository.example.com/app/app-$APP_VERSION.jar -O app.jar
----
.`.s2i/bin/run` File
[source,terminal]
----
#!/bin/sh
exec java -jar app.jar
----
ifndef::openshift-online[]
For a Docker build strategy, you must modify the Dockerfile and invoke
shell commands with the link:https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#run[`RUN` instruction]:
.Excerpt of Dockerfile
[source,terminal]
----
FROM jboss/base-jdk:8
ENV APP_VERSION 1.0
RUN wget http://repository.example.com/app/app-$APP_VERSION.jar -O app.jar
EXPOSE 8080
CMD [ "java", "-jar", "app.jar" ]
----
endif::[]
In practice, you may want to use an environment variable for the file location so that the specific file to be downloaded can be customized using an environment variable defined on the `BuildConfig`, rather than updating the
ifndef::openshift-online[]
Dockerfile or
endif::[]
`assemble` script.
You can choose between different methods of defining environment variables:
* Using the `.s2i/environment` file (only for a `Source` build strategy)
* Setting the variables in the `BuildConfig` object
* Providing the variables explicitly using the `oc start-build --env` command (only for builds that are triggered manually)
//[role="_additional-resources"]
//.Additional resources
//* For more information on how to control which *_assemble_* and *_run_* script is
//used by a Source build, see Overriding builder image scripts.
