bootsfaces-webapp-archetype

Webapp archetype for BootsFaces

This archetype should be available at Maven central at
<groupId>net.bootsfaces</groupId>
<artifactId>bootsfaces-webapp-archetype</artifactId>
<version>1.2.0</version>

If you cannot get it at Maven you can clone this project and install it into your local Maven catalog (.m2)
git clone https://github.com/chongma/bootsfaces-webapp-archetype.git
cd bootsfaces-webapp-archetype
mvn install archetype:update-local-catalog

Command line usage

To create a runnable BootsFaces project using this archetype install maven and then run the following from the command line
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=net.bootsfaces -DarchetypeArtifactId=bootsfaces-webapp-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.2.0

Maven will prompt you for a groupId, artifactId, version and package, e.g.
Define value for property 'groupId': test
Define value for property 'artifactId': test
Define value for property 'version' 1.0-SNAPSHOT: :
Define value for property 'package' test: :

Starting the server

Change directory to the new project, e.g.
cd test

To package the project and start the TomEE instance (make sure there are no other Application servers running on 8080)
mvn package tomee:start

The test application can now be viewed at e.g.
http://localhost:8080/

To stop the TomEE instance
mvn tomee:stop
