Hi,
The idea would be to do the same as what Jenkins is doing and provide an executable XWiki
WAR using winstone:
https://github.com/jenkinsci/winstone (it’s using Jetty).
This is the install doc of Jenkins:
https://jenkins.io/doc/:
"
• Download Jenkins.
• Open up a terminal in the download directory and run "java -jar jenkins.war"
• Browse to
http://localhost:8080 and follow the instructions to complete the
installation.
“
Actually what could be nice is that we could release a single WAR packaging for XWiki
and:
* Users could execute it as an executable WAR with java -jar xwiki.war (it would run
Jetty)
* Users could deploy it in their servlet container (in this case the embedded Jetty
wouldn’t be used)
This would allow to release a single packaging and simplify things. It would also work on
all OSes and don’t even need users to unzip anything!
WDYT?
Thanks
