What is Jnix?

Jnix

Jnix is a handy tool that helps you wrap jar files in shell scripts for easy deployment on Linux and Unix systems. It’s also great as a launcher script for those jar files!

How to Use Jnix

If you want to use this command line utility, the first step is to create a Launch4J configuration file. You can either do this manually or use the Launch4J graphical user interface (GUI).

Creating a Wrapper or Launcher

To make your wrapper or launcher for a jar file, just open up your terminal and head over to the Jnix installation directory. Then, type this command:

java -jar JnixBuild.jar "path to launch4j configuration file"

Troubleshooting Java Path Issues

If Java isn’t in your path, don’t worry! You can still run it by providing the full path to Java. Just enter:

sh ./jnix.sh -jar JnixBuild.jar "path to launch4j configuration file"

This way, Jnix will find the right version of Java for you.
