Basic project template to kickoff a new Jakarta EE or Java EE web application.
Clone the branch matching your target environment into a new project. There are currently three branches available.
- Jakarta EE 10 with Faces 4.0 (master)
- Java EE 8 with JSF 2.3
- Java EE 7 with JSF 2.3
- Java EE 7 with JSF 2.2
Note: For usage on JBoss EAP 7 alpha/beta or WildFly 10rc4 and below, JASPIC needs to be activated before the application can be deployed. See also http://arjan-tijms.omnifaces.org/2015/08/activating-jaspic-in-jboss-wildfly.html
Fow WildFly 25 and higher Jakarta Authentication (new name for JASPIC) once again needs to be activated before the application can be deployed (it's a recurring theme for WilfFly it seems). See also https://stackoverflow.com/a/70240973/472792
The default app uses H2 with drop-and-create. In other words, the default app uses an embedded database and is configured to drop and create all tables on startup. If you want to stop dropping all tables on startup, edit jakarta.persistence.schema-generation.database.action property of /META-INF/persistence.xml to create. If you want to change the database, install the desired JDBC driver in your target server and edit the JDBC driver configuration in /META-INF/conf/datasource-settings.xml. It's not necessary to manually create a data source in the target server as that's already done via <data-source> in web.xml.
