[wildfly-dev] Wildfly bootable jar

[Jean Francois Denise]

Hi,

in the context of WFLY-13305 
<https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-13305> we are defining a bootable 
jar for WildFly. The detailed proposal is there 
<https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-proposals/pull/306>.

A first POC of the feature is already used in the MicroProfile starter 
web site (you can go to https://start.microprofile.io/ , select 
"WildFly" as "MicroProfile Runtime" and select a set of MicroProfile 
specifications. This will generate and download a pre-configured mvn 
project to build a bootable jar for WildFly 19).

The maven plugin in use is a proof of concept that is mainly compliant 
with the proposal 
<https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-proposals/pull/306>. This plugin has 
been released from my own personal repository[1] and is going to be soon 
moved to "wildfly-jar-maven-plugin" repository in the 
https://github.com/wildfly-extras organisation. In the prototype, the 
runtime that launches the server relies on WildFly Embedded API. For 
WildFly 20, we are re-designing the runtime to not depend on Embedded 
and are integrating it in wildfly-core[2] project.

The plugin repository comes with a set of examples[3] that highlight 
possible use-cases (dev mode, hollow jar, JBOSS CLI based customization, 
Openshift s2i, Google JIB and advanced galleon datasource integration).

Although this plugin and runtime will evolve and mature, they should 
already give a feel of the feature.

Thank-you.

JF Denise
