Apache TomEE Maven Plugin -- Executable WAR

[jieryn <ji...@gmail.com>]

Is there any easy way to produce an executable WAR file, which embeds
Apache TomEE? Apache Tomcat Maven plugin makes this trivial -
http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2.2/executable-war-jar.html

It is extremely convenient to be able to bundle up a single JAR file
which contains everything required to just java -jar <jar> and have it
initialize Apache TomEE and execute the embedded web application.

right, you need to play with war explosion and assembly plugin (a bit
harder but works)

I gave it a shot in tomee-embedded module, but the Shade plugin does
not seem to want to have multiple executions with different
dependencies. It seems the current mechanism, Shade plugin, will not
support the request I have made earlier.

no but when users wanta flat classpath they generally want more
control so we can't meet the requirement.

Another point is even if embedded/using a uber jar tomee/tomcat will
still create temp folders/files, that's not a full embedded solution
like openejb.

that said if you spend few time doing the plus uber jar we can add it
(just open a jira for it and attach a patch)

Re: Apache TomEE Maven Plugin -- Executable WAR

[jieryn <ji...@gmail.com>]

Ok, thanks for the link. We need the tomee-plus profile. I really like
the idea of providing a drop-in which up converts an Apache Tomcat
instance to Apache TomEE, but I am surprised we would not do it for
every profile. They would be useful just like the alternate bundles
for stand alone are useful.

Is it difficult to have them composed automatically by the automated
build system, release process, etc?

http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/openejb/tomee-embedded/1.5.2/
tomee-embedded-1.5.2-uber.jar

that's the webprofile. To get jaxrs/plus you need to add few tomee-* modules.

Re: Apache TomEE Maven Plugin -- Executable WAR

[jieryn <ji...@gmail.com>]

According to Maven Repository:
http://search.maven.org/#search|ga|1|tomee there seems to be a problem
with that WAR module TomEE provides. I see:

org.apache.openejb:tomee-jaxrs-webapp:1.5.2
org.apache.openejb:tomee-plus-webapp:4.0.0
org.apache.openejb:tomee-webapp:4.0.0

Maybe we stopped producing/pushing all three flavors of the single JAR
file added to your $CATALINA_BASE/lib or WEB-INF/lib to up-convert an
existing Apache Tomcat into an Apache TomEE?

Hi

did you try the mvn plugin adding tomee dependencies? it should work.
