Updating the WildFly archetypes
by Wolfgang Knauf
Hi,
the archetypes at https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-archetypes
(e.g. "wildfly-javaee7-webapp-ear-blank-archetype") are for WildFly 8,
and when updating the WildFly version in pom.xmls, a lot of further
changes is required, see https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-9703
(which is only part of the changes).
I am interested in creating new archetypes for WildFly 15. What do you
think?
My plan is to name them e.g.
"wildfly15-javaee8-webapp-ear-blank-archetype" and to create a new
archetype version each time a new WildFly major version is released.
If you are OK with this, I will struggle with my first steps in Git, and
I probably will ask some more or less dumb questions about details ;-).
Best regards
Wolfgang

Keycloak-Elytron secure ejbs
by Besenti Samson
I am trying to configure elytron in wildfly 16 to secure ejbs using
keycloak 6.0 that are accessed by a java client. Has anyone done a working
example of this that I can follow? Specifically by way of the
standalone.xml config and wildfly-config.xml. I have successfully stepped
through an example using jboss properties file realm but getting lost when
it comes to keycloak.
