如何使用 thorntail 提供 static 内容

Question

I have a new project created using the Thorntail Project Generator . I want to serve a small amount of static files such as html, images etc

How can I do this?

Answer 1

Assuming you build your project with Maven, you need to:

• make sure that your Maven project is <packaging>war</packaging>
• add a dependency on the io.thorntail:undertow fraction
• put your static content into src/main/webapp (but not under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF )
• if you also use JAX-RS, make sure that the JAX-RS application is not bound to / ; for example, if you use the most common way of enabling JAX-RS (creating an Application subclass with the @ApplicationPath annotation), make sure that you don't have @ApplicationPath("/") , but something like @ApplicationPath("/api")

I created a small example project here: https://github.com/rhoar-qe/thorntail-test-suite/tree/master/javaee/static-content

Note that Thorntail is based on WildFly, and so includes the same servlet container: Undertow. If you have more elaborate needs, you can find articles about serving static content with servlet in general and Undertow in particular everywhere on the web, including here on StackOverflow.
