Hi,
I'm impressed! By following your instructions, I got jetty to run my
webapp (using http://www.mortbay.org/maven2/snapshot as mentioned by
Greg - the old url did not work anymore).
Unfortunately, I didn't get very far because jetty doesn't know about
my oracle drivers. With tomcat, I keep those in ${catalina.base}/
common/lib. I guess I could add them as dependencies tom my project
so they end up in WEB-INF/lib, but then I could not deploy the war to
tomcat anymore. Sounds like I should have different maven profiles
fot these scenarios? Or does jetty look for additional jars in some
location? That would make it a lot easier..
I also noticed that jetty expects my webapp at ${dasedir}/src/main/
webapp. Running mvn war:inplace works, but feels rather clumsy. I
adds files to src that aren't sources, and I have to make sure I
don't accidentally add them to svn.
Cheers,
-Ralph.

Ralph,
Try putting the following in your pom.xml:
<pluginRepositories>
<pluginRepository>
<id>mortbay-repo</id>
<name>mortbay-repo</name>
<url>http://www.mortbay.org/maven2</url>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
I should have the site doco for the plugin linked into the Jetty
website in the next day. In the meanwhile, all you should need to
do is to add these plugin config
lines to your pom.xml:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jetty6-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<scanIntervalSeconds>20</scanIntervalSeconds>
</configuration>
</plugin>
That will cause the plugin to keep running and scan for class/lib
changes every 20secs. You
can change it to whatever you prefer. There are also a couple of
other config options, but
that should get you going.
You can run it:
mvn org.mortbay.jetty:maven-jetty6-plugin:1.0:run
You can shorten that to:
mvn jetty6:run
but I'm not sure exactly how to do that other than as the plugin
developer (I followed the
instructions at http://maven.apache.org/maven2/guides/plugin/guide-
java-plugin-development.html).
Jason, is there any update on how we get the Jetty repository
mirrored to the central
Maven2 repository?
cheers

Ralph,
Just a suggestion: if you want to run your webapp without having
to create a war first,
you could try the Jetty6 plugin. It is extremely lightweight, you
don't have to have any external config files for it, plus it
will automatically
hot-redeploy your webapp whenever you change any class files or
dependencies. You can
get it from scpexe://jetty.mortbay.org/home/ftp/pub/maven2.
Hi,
sounds great, but I can't figure out what to do with scpexe://
jetty.mortbay.org/home/ftp/pub/maven2. I tried creating a
pluginRepository in ~/.m2/settings.xml but can't get it to work.
Cheers,
-Ralph.

Hi,
I've successfully compiled and installed the tomcat plugin from
svn, and tomcat:deploy works as expected. Now I'm wondering
how to best use it.
For development, I'd like to avoid zipping up the war file for
each deployment. From gleaning at the source, I learned this
means deploying in local mode. I guess I have to pass a
parameter to the tomcat plugin, but I can't figure out the
parameter's correct name (I know, this question is related to
plugins in general, but I can't find the documentation).
I tried
$ mvn -Dorg.apache.maven.plugins.maven-tomcat-
plugin.mode=local tomcat:deploy
and
$ mvn -Dorg.codehaus.mojo.tomcat.mode=local tomcat:deploy
but all I get is
[INFO] Deploying war remotely to /myProject on http://localhost:
8080/ manager
which means I'm running in the default remote mode.
I also noticed there's a mode called inplace, that uses a
context.xml file to deploy to tomcat, and requires the war
plugin to run in exploded mode. What's the advantage of using
inplace (I assume you get to use a path different from
project.build.finalName?), and how do I configure the war plugin?
How does everyone else use the tomcat plugin?
Thanks,
-Ralph.
