Summary: The xml-dom4j
quickstart demonstrates how to use Servlet and JSF to upload an XML file to JBoss EAP and parse it using a 3rd party XML parsing library.
Target Product: JBoss EAP
Source: https://github.com/jboss-developer/jboss-eap-quickstarts/
The xml-dom4j
quickstart is a simple DOM4J example that demonstrates how to use Servlet 3.0 and JSF to upload an XML file to Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and parse it using a 3rd party XML parsing library.
It also shows how to include 3rd-party library in a deployment.
The application this project produces is designed to be run on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.1 or later.
All you need to build this project is Java 8.0 (Java SDK 1.8) or later and Maven 3.3.1 or later. See Configure Maven for JBoss EAP 7.1 to make sure you are configured correctly for testing the quickstarts.
In the following instructions, replace EAP7_HOME
with the actual path to your JBoss EAP installation. The installation path is described in detail here: Use of EAP7_HOME and JBOSS_HOME Variables.
-
Open a command prompt and navigate to the root of the JBoss EAP directory.
-
The following shows the command line to start the server:
For Linux: EAP7_HOME/bin/standalone.sh For Windows: EAP7_HOME\bin\standalone.bat
-
Make sure you have started the JBoss EAP server as described above.
-
Open a command prompt and navigate to the root directory of this quickstart.
-
Type this command to build and deploy the archive:
mvn clean install wildfly:deploy
-
This will deploy
target/xml-dom4j.war
to the running instance of the server.
The application will be running at the following URL: http://localhost:8080/xml-dom4j/.
-
Make sure you have started the JBoss EAP server as described above.
-
Open a command prompt and navigate to the root directory of this quickstart.
-
When you are finished testing, type this command to undeploy the archive:
mvn wildfly:undeploy
You can also start the server and deploy the quickstarts or run the Arquillian tests from Eclipse using JBoss tools. For general information about how to import a quickstart, add a JBoss EAP server, and build and deploy a quickstart, see Use JBoss Developer Studio or Eclipse to Run the Quickstarts.
If you want to debug the source code of any library in the project, run the following command to pull the source into your local repository. The IDE should then detect it.
mvn dependency:sources
