Deploying Jakarta EE 9 applications to Apache TomEE

Apache TomEE(aka Apache Tomcat + Java EE/Jakarta EE) is a lightweight open-source Jakarta EE application server. Currently it provides a Jakarta EE 9 preview version in the download page which is converted from the TomEE 8 by the Eclipse Transformer tooling project.

There are several options of TomEE 9 in the download page, choose a variant according to your requirements, for the details of these variants go to the feature comparison page.

NOTE: Apache TomEE is Web Profile compatible, not an implementation of Full Profile.

Get the source codes from my Github.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed the following software.

Manual Deployment

As an example, we select the plume version, which includes a super feature collection of Web Profile .

Extract the files from the downloaded archive into your local disk. The TomEE file structure is similar to Apache Tomcat.

To start a TomEE server, open a terminal window, enter the TomEE root folder and switch to bin folder, execute the following command to start a TomEE server in a separate window.

# Windows
startup.bat
# or 
catalina.bat start

# Linux like system.
sh ./startup.sh

Or run the TomEE server in the same window by executing the following command.

# Windows
catalina.bat run

# Linux like system.
sh ./catalina.sh run

You will see the start up progress in the TomEE server console.

Using CATALINA_BASE:   "D:\appsvr\apache-tomee-plume-9.0.0-M3"
Using CATALINA_HOME:   "D:\appsvr\apache-tomee-plume-9.0.0-M3"
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: "D:\appsvr\apache-tomee-plume-9.0.0-M3\temp"
Using JRE_HOME:        "D:\jdk11"
Using CLASSPATH:       "D:\appsvr\apache-tomee-plume-9.0.0-M3\bin\bootstrap.jar;D:\appsvr\apache-tomee-plume-9.0.0-M3\bin\tomcat-juli.jar"
Using CATALINA_OPTS:   ""
...

Execute the following command in the project root folder to build the project into a war package in the target folder.

mvn clean package

To deploy the application, just copy the target/jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate.war to the [tomee install dir]/webapps folder.

In the console window, you will see the deployment progress is started automatically.

Once it is deployed successfully, use curl command to verify the deployment result.

curl http://localhost:8080/jakartaee9-starter-boilerplate/api/greeting/Hantsy
{"message":"Say Hello to Hantsy at 2020-11-29T15:44:29.252675900"}

To undeploy the application, just remove the war file from the [tomee install dir]/webapps folder. Wait a second, you will see the undeployment progress in the TomEE console.

To stop the running TomEE server, just send a CTRL+C signal in the TomEE console, or execute the shutdown command in another terminal window.

# Linux like system.
[tomee install dir]/bin/shutdown  

# Windows
[tomee install dir]\bin\shutdown.bat

Using TomEE Maven Plugin

Apache TomEE provides a official maven plugin for developers to deploy and undeploy applications to TomEE server in application development stage.

Declare the tomee-maven-plugin under plugins in the pom.xml file.

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.tomee.maven</groupId>
    <artifactId>tomee-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>${tomee-maven-plugin.version}</version>
</plugin>

Define a tomee-maven-plugin.version property to specify the version of tomee-maven-plugin to use.

 <tomee-maven-plugin.version>8.0.5</tomee-maven-plugin.version>

NOTE: Currently tomee-maven-plugin does not provide a preview version for Jakarta EE 9/TomEE 9, but the stable version(8.0.5) works great with the latest TomEE 9 preview version.

By default, tomee-maven-plugin will retrieve the latest stable version to serve your application. Add the following properties in the configuration of tomee-maven-plugin to force it to use the latest TomEE 9.0.0-M3 instead.

<!-- download and run on a managed Apache TomEE server -->
<tomeeVersion>${tomee.version}</tomeeVersion>
<tomeeArtifactId>apache-tomee</tomeeArtifactId>
<tomeeGroupId>org.apache.tomee.jakarta</tomeeGroupId>
<tomeeClassifier>plume</tomeeClassifier>

Define a tomeeVersion to specify the TomEE version.

 <tomee.version>9.0.0-M3</tomee.version>

NOTE: The tomeeGroupId is org.apache.tomee.jakarta, which is different from the stable version, TomEE 8.0 uses groupId org.apache.tomee.

OK, now run the following command to start a TomEE 9 server and deploy the applications.

mvn clean package tomee:run -Ptomee

You will see the following info in the TomEE console.

You can also use tomee-maven-plugin to deploy the application to a running TomEE server, esp. running on a remote server.

Open the [tomee install dir]/conf/tomcat-users.xml file, uncomment the following the configuration.

<!-- Activate those lines to get access to TomEE GUI if added (tomee-webaccess) -->

<role rolename="tomee-admin" />
<user username="tomee" password="tomee" roles="tomee-admin,manager-gui" />

Open the [tomee install dir]/conf/system.properties file, uncomment and modify the following items.

tomee.remote.support = true
tomee.serialization.class.blacklist = -
tomee.serialization.class.whitelist = com.example.
openejb.system.apps = true
openejb.servicemanager.enabled = true

Let's return to the project pom.xml file, replace the former tomee-maven-plugin configuration with the following.

<configuration>
    <tomeeHost>localhost</tomeeHost>
    <user>tomee</user>
    <password>tomee</password>
    <path>${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}.war</path>
</configuration>

Make sure the TomEE server is running, run the following command in the project root folder.

mvn clean package tomee:deploy -Ptomee

You can view the deployment progress info in the TomEE console.
