Quickstarts also available for: Python, .NET, Node.js, PHP, Ruby and curl.

The purpose of the quickstart guide is to provide simple examples focused on one goal. For example, sending an SMS, handling an incoming SMS webhook, making a Text to Speech call. These code samples are meant to be used for https://developer.nexmo.com/, and are structured in such a way as to be used for internal testing. Developers are free to use these code snippets as a reference, but these may require changes to be worked into your specific application. We recommend checking out the Vonage Developer Website, which displays these code snippets in a more copy/paste fashion.

To use this sample you will first need a Vonage account.

For some of the examples you will need to buy a number.

You will need to have Gradle installed to build the code. Once you have gradle installed, run the following to build a jar that contains the quickstart code along with all the vonage server sdk dependencies:

gradle assemble

This will build the following file: build/libs/vonage-java-code-snippets-with-dependencies.jar

Copy .env-example to .env and edit the values. You'll need to load those values into environment variables, so you'll probably want to use a tool like Foreman to run your code like this:

foreman run java -cp build/libs/vonage-java-code-snippets-with-dependencies.jar PACKAGE.CLASS

So to run the OutboundTextToSpeechExample class, you would run the following:

foreman run java -cp build/libs/vonage-java-code-snippets-with-dependencies.jar com.vonage.quickstart.voice.OutboundTextToSpeech

If you set the environment variable QUICKSTART_DEBUG to any value, extra information will be output to the console from the Vonage Server SDK.

Please raise an issue to request an example that isn't present within the quickstart. Pull requests will be gratefully received.
