<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>Hi All,</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I would like to create a new deployer for the following use case:</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I would like to create a file, preferably an XML file, which contains a "bundle name" (not to confuse with OSGi bundles, though), and a list of JAR's, WAR's, or EAR's that should be deployed.</p><p>All those artifacts to be deployed should be specified by a URI, e.g. "file:/home/myname/deployments/my-new-app-1.0.0.jar" or "mvn:org.mydomain.app/myapp/1.0.0/war".</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>The file should then be picked up by my new deployer and then the list of all those artifacts should be resolved (found) according to the URI.</p><p>From the example above, the first URI should find the "my-new-app-1.0.0.jar" on the local filesystem under "/home/myname/deployments" and then deploy it to JBoss AS 7. The second example the demonstrtes the power of this new deployer: it would try to find a WAR with the filename "myapp-1.0.0.war from a Maven repository using the groupId of "org.mydomain.app" and artifactId of "myapp". My specific implementation would be configurable to look into a local ".m2" repository first and if not found, try to download it from a remote Maven repository. The URL to this repository should be configurable. This could be implemented similar to the OSGi Repository implemented as part of JBOSGI.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Here is my question:</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Are there any HOWTO's, examples, or other documentation that describes how to implement a new deployer in JBoss AS7? It would even be helpful if someone could point me to some existing implementations?</p><p>I looked at the current source and tried to figure out how the deployer for the "*-ds.xml" files was implemented, but it is hard for me to see how this would be hooked into the overall JBoss deployment subsystem?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Any help or pointers would be much appreciated.</p></div>
