Init and start Gerrit in a single shell script example

init_and_start_gerrit.sh

#!/bin/sh -ex

SITE_PATH="${HOME}/site"
GERRIT_WAR="/path/to/gerrit.war"

# Because Gerrit's "daemon --init" can't take init options we will do this
# separately. Feature request filed:
# https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=9004

# Init site (provision). Note that the GERRIT_WAR may be a different version
# than the one in "${SITE_PATH}/bin/gerrit.war".
java ${JAVA_OPTIONS} -jar ${GERRIT_WAR} init \
    --site-path "${SITE_PATH}" \
    --batch \
    --no-auto-start \
    --install-all-plugins \
    --skip-all-downloads

# Run daemon in foreground with 'exec' to pass signals.
exec java ${JAVA_OPTIONS} -jar "${SITE_PATH}/bin/gerrit.war" daemon \
    --site-path "${SITE_PATH}" \
    --console-log \
