May I ask for some clarification on what sorts of projects can be successfully deployed to vcap_dev please? What I'd like to deploy is a dynamic web project that includes java and javascript, but that appears to not be allowed. Is it possible to include javascript/html/css artifacts in a deployed app? If so, what project type should I use?
Thanks,
John
You can use the vmc command line tool to see what runtimes and frameworks are supported in your vcap_dev setup. The commands are slightly different depending on the version of vmc you install:
use vmc runtimes or vmc info --runtimes to see what runtimes are supported
use vmc frameworks or vmc info --frameworks to see what frameworks are supported
This question was also posted to the vcap Google group, see that thread for additional details.
You can use the spring framework by installing the Cloud Foundry Integration Extension for SpringSource Tool Suite (STS) and Eclipse (http://docs.cloudfoundry.com/tools/STS/configuring-STS.html). Then you can add javascript / css / html files as resources.
Let me know if that answers your question.
Thanks,
Hitesh

I am new in liferay want to perform crud operation using service builder so i want to understand need & use of apache felix web console bundle in liferay 7.1 so that i use it in order to check json/webservice api.
I would say you are not looking at the right tool for the job.
The console enables you to interact with the OSGi framework, a good place to start is not on the console but on the file systems if you are looking into understanding how Liferay uses the framework. The framework is embedded into the web app in order to provide the environment where bundles can live and provide services collectively.
Gogo is an auxiliary tool that enables interaction, you can query if bundles are installed, check the dependencies that you missed and who is providing a certain service or exposing a package.
Most of day-to-day of this kind of information you can also find in the app manager and/or logs.
About testing you api, I assume you are looking for seeing if it was installed and if it was resolved and activated. The app managers can provide the first clue for this, but gogo is an adequate tool as well, you will need to learn its commands and syntax. Do not worry they are trivial, you can find a description on the Apache's project page an on Liferay's dev guide.
Now, if you are looking to test the API for correctives or availability, using gogo will demand custom commands and lots of extra logic other tools provide for you.
new to ibm bluemix. Steps to be followed to develop a application on eclipse and to depoy using IBM Eclipse Tools for Bluemix and cloud foundry as well.
You could find all information you may need for your question in the Bluemix Documentation
https://console.ng.bluemix.net/docs/
On the following URL you could find a "Step by step" guide using Bluemix tool:
https://console.ng.bluemix.net/docs/manageapps/eclipsetools/eclipsetools.html
Instead on the following URL you could find a "Step by step" guide using CF push for a Java app on liberty runtime: https://console.ng.bluemix.net/docs/starters/liberty/index.html#liberty
First of all you can follow the instructions here for installing the IBM Eclipse Tools for Bluemix https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/ibm-eclipse-tools-bluemix
Secondly, you can follow this tutorial to know how to push an application to Bluemix using the tooling. https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/941f1004-4e3d-4a4b-87ed-30d8045fde4e/resource/IBM%20Bluemix%20Tutorial%20-%20Connecting%20Eclipse%20to%20Bluemix%20v2.0_files/IBMBluemixTutorial-ConnectingEclipsetoBluemixv2.0.pdf?lang=en
There might be some UI differences in the IBM Eclipse Tools for Bluemix tools that you will install from the first link vs what is shown in the second link. These differences are however just cosmetic (like using terms IBM bluemix vs Cloud foundry while defining a server). Overall the functionality remains the same.
Also apart from the use-case described in the tutorial (second link), you can also create new projects (web projects) in eclipse and push them to Bluemix.
In order to test your projects locally, you would need to install local WAS liberty profile (in case of JavaEE projects) or local node js (in case of nodejs apps). You can do all the testing locally on the local servers and once you're confident about your development, you can push the projects to Bluemix.
Thanks,
Gaurav
Though this is a very old thread but this will be helpful for future references. One can setup the Bluemix server in an IDE like eclipse by straight forward adding a new server and can push the application directly. However a more user friendly approach is to deploy it from cf commandline. You can deploy the application independently or even package it with the local server. You even have the options to provide inputs like hostname in the commandline. Please go through the Bluemix docs for detailed specifications.
I've always used eclipse before, but I'm using Netbeans for the first time because of it's integration with Web Service clients.
However, after following multiple tutorials, the way to add a web service client is to:
https://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/flower_swing.html
Make a new project
Right click on your project, New->Other->Other->Web Service Client
However, I do not have the web service client option available, not sure what I am doing wrong.
Please mention the net beans version you have. You should use newer version of the IDE to use latest features.
For other developers who will face this problem like me, I will leave my answer here.
I'm currently using Apache NetBeans IDE 11.0 and it's in Web Services -> Web Service Client. If you still cannot find it, just use filter feature. I found it with filter.
I want to know if is possible deploy GWT 2.x applications on server with support for the servlet spec 2.4 like JBoss 4.
I have reviewed the official documentation but apparently there is no dependences. So my questions are:
Is possible?
Is needed workarounds?
Any has some previous experience?
Yes It is possible. You can deploy GWT applicaions to any external web server like Tomcat, Jboss etc. Your question is bit wide in context. So, better look at some tutorials.
This tutorial will help you more. I have not gone into details of this but seems good.
I love Heroku but I would prefer to develop in Scala rather than Ruby on Rails.
Does anyone know of any services like Heroku that work with Scala?
UPDATE: Heroku now officially supports Scala - see answers below for links
As of October 3rd 2011, Heroku officially supports Scala, Akka and sbt.
http://blog.heroku.com/archives/2011/10/3/scala/
Update
Heroku has just announced support for Java.
Update 2
Heroku has just announced support for Scala
Also
Check out Amazon Elastic Beanstalk.
To deploy Java applications using
Elastic Beanstalk, you simply:
Create your application as you
normally would using any editor or IDE
(e.g. Eclipse).
Package your
deployable code into a standard Java
Web Application Archive (WAR file).
Upload your WAR file to Elastic
Beanstalk using the AWS Management
Console, the AWS Toolkit for Eclipse,
the web service APIs, or the Command
Line Tools.
Deploy your application.
Behind the scenes, Elastic Beanstalk
handles the provisioning of a load
balancer and the deployment of your
WAR file to one or more EC2 instances
running the Apache Tomcat application
server.
Within a few minutes you will
be able to access your application at
a customized URL (e.g.
http://myapp.elasticbeanstalk.com/).
Once an application is running,
Elastic Beanstalk provides several
management features such as:
Easily deploy new application versions
to running environments (or rollback
to a previous version).
Access
built-in CloudWatch monitoring metrics
such as average CPU utilization,
request count, and average latency.
Receive e-mail notifications through
Amazon Simple Notification Service
when application health changes or
application servers are added or
removed.
Access Tomcat server log
files without needing to login to the
application servers.
Quickly restart
the application servers on all EC2
instances with a single command.
Another strong contender is Cloud Foundry. One of the nice features of Cloud Foundry is the ability to have a local version of "the cloud" running on your laptop so you can deploy and test offline.
I started working on the exact same thing as what you said a few weeks ago. I use Lift, which is a great framework and has a lot of potential, on top of Linux chroot environment.
I'm done with a demo version, but Linux chroot is not that stable (nor secure), so I'm now switching to FreeBSD jail on Amazon EC2, and hopefully it'll be done soon.

There are also other Java hosting environment including VMForce mentioned above.
If you are looking for a custom setup which also has the ease of deployment that heroku offers: http://dotcloud.com. They are invite only right now but I was given access in under three days. I am working on a Lift/MongoDB project there and it works well.
Off the top of my head, only VMForce comes to mind, but its not available yet. This will be a Java-oriented service, so that probably means you'll have to spend a wee bit of time figuring out how to package the app.
For more discussion, there was a debate about this in 2008.
I'm not entirely sure if it's really suitable or not, but people have deployed Scala applications to Google App Engine, for example http://mawson.wordpress.com/2009/04/10/first-steps-with-scala-on-google-app-engine/
Actually you can run scala on heroku right now. You don't believe it?
https://github.com/lstoll/heroku-playframework-scala
I'm not sure the tricks lstoll has used are legit but using the
new cedar platform where you can run custom processes and some
ingenious Gemfile hacking he has managed to bootstrap the Java
play platform into a process. Seems to work as he has a live
site running a test page.
Stax cloud service offers preconfigured lift project skeleton. Also, there is a tutorial on how to deploy lift project to appengine.
