Make app server deployment options more intuitive in seam gen
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-4107
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4107
Project: Seam
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Tools
Affects Versions: 2.1.2.CR1
Environment: Nightly build for 2.1.2 from trunk
opensuse 11.1 x86_64
Reporter: John Ament
Priority: Trivial
seam setup could be a bit more intuitive when it comes to selecting default app server for
deployment.
Currently it is requesting:
[input] Enter your JBoss AS home directory [C:/Program Files/jboss-4.2.3.GA]
[C:/Program Files/jboss-4.2.3.GA]
/opt/jboss/jboss-5.0.1.GA-1
[input] Enter your JBoss AS domain [default] [default]
all
[input] Enter your GlassFish V2 or V3 home directory (Ignore if you aren't
deploying to GlassFish) [C:/Program Files/glassfish-v2.1] [C:/Program
Files/glassfish-v2.1]
[input] Enter your GlassFish domain (Ignore if you aren't deploying to GlassFish)
[domain1] [domain1]
Instead, maybe it could prompt with the following questions:
Select your default app server [jboss] [glassfish] [tomcat]
jboss
Enter your JBoss AS home directory []
/path/to/jboss/install
Enter your JBoss AS domain []
default
Similar prompts for glassfish as well (and maybe only make tomcat available if you're
deploying a war file?)
I think by adding this, it would be easier to integrate additional app servers into the
seam options.
Of course, the flip side is that by doing this you're limited to a single app server
deployment mode. For IT it's not a bad approach (since they're usually app server
specific anyways). To alleviate this problem though, maybe add a new seam target
add-appserver ? It can prompt for the same things I listed above.
