Run a war/set of wars released in internal repo
I gotta believe by now there is a slick way to run a war file released to an
internal repository under a plugin like jetty or cargo. I'd like to be able
to share a set of web-apps I created with a colleague without him needing to
download my source. Something like "Just run 'mvn
-DreleasedWar=com.mycompany:mywarproj:1.2 jetty:run' from the command line"
would be a nice way to share work I've done. The idea would be the plugin
resolves the war dependency using typical dependency resolve logic and spins
up the container pointing to the war file in the local repo. Maybe it would
copy from the local repo into the default build 'targeet' dir or something.
has there ever been something like this done? \

I think Kohsuke was one of the first to implement it - his blog post
on it should help:

Re: Run a war/set of wars released in internal repo
Posted by Clifton <cl...@gmail.com>.
Sorry taking so long to respond but I have several things happening. I love
the idea of removing Maven from the equation (Though I'd love to also have a
Maven solution). I never thought of self-executable wars with
Jetty/Winstone. Can you give me an example of the packaging for this? Is it
a simple jar project? Can the jar/war also be deployed inside a servlet
container? I can look up the specifics but if you could give a simple
example? I'm thinking this requires some sort of inlining of Jetty/Winstone
classes which would require either Assembly or OneJar support. Thanx for the
tip!

It's a simple matter to create a self-executable war, either with
Jetty or Winstone. I'd remove Maven from the equation and just give an
url to the repository. If you want, you could also publish a jnlp file
with the war so he really wouldn't need to do anything else but click
on the link to start the app.

Re: Run a war/set of wars released in internal repo
Posted by Clifton <cl...@gmail.com>.
Skinny pom is a hack. What I'd like to do is have him run my project
directly. Sharing a pom requires too many steps. You have to detach the pom
from the email, save it sin an empty folder such that it doesn't conflict
with other things (conflicts are not likely the first few times but possible
when I get happy and start using the idea more often with more advanced
people), run the command, then diagnose why it didn't work on the first
attempt. (Was there corruption in the detached email? Is there an XSD in the
pom trying to resolve to a absolute path on my machine? Did I mis-type a
dependency in the pom or forget to close a tag?) I'm leaning towards using
an assembly which describes the Tomcat structure since there's likely two
war apps involved but even then there's no straight forward way to unpack a
tomcat tar and launch on a single command. I'm looking for something like an
executable war or a jar in a war or something. Maybe I'll whip up something
quick/dirty in Groovy that embodies the idea and release it. I was just
checking to see if it had been done or if there was an alternate approach.

Re: Run a war/set of wars released in internal repo
Posted by Stephen Connolly <st...@gmail.com>.
you could give him a skinny pom that has the deployed war as a dependency.
war packaging will pull down the dependency and merge it with your
(empty) skinny pom
in which case you just need to give him the skinny pom file. this is
extra nice as you can configure jetty defaults in the skinny pom and
define a default goal so all he needs to do is run "mvn"
