How To Build Java Web Service For Tomcat Intellij

Deploy a Java web application inside an awarding server container

You can apply Docker to run an application server (Tomcat, Wildfly, and so on) and deploy your Java web applications in it. This tutorial describes how to create a simple Coffee spider web application, build a deployable web application resources (WAR) file, and then deploy information technology inside application server running as a Docker container.

Before you begin:

Install and run Docker.

For more data, run into the Docker documentation.
Configure the Docker daemon connexion in IntelliJ IDEA.

For more information, see Enable Docker back up.

Create a Coffee spider web application

From the primary carte du jour, select .
In the New Project dialog, select Java Enterprise and practise the following:
- Enter a name for your project: DockerJavaWebApp
- Select the Spider web application template
- Select a recent JDK for the projection (OpenJDK 17 is a good selection)
Click Next to continue.
On the side by side footstep of the wizard, select Jakarta EE nine the Web Contour specification.

Click Create.

IntelliJ IDEA generates a default projection with a Coffee web application that has the alphabetize.jsp home page and the HelloServlet.java class that responds to requests at /hi-servlet.

Build a State of war artifact

Afterwards IntelliJ IDEA creates the new project, build a WAR artifact to deploy to the application server.

From the principal carte du jour, select .
In the Build Antiquity dialog, select to build the DockerJavaWebApp:war artifact.

You lot should run across the artifact target/DockerJavaWebApp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.state of war.

Pull the application server Docker prototype

Open the Services tool window: or Alt+8.
In the Services tool window, select the Images node, and then specify to pull the Tomcat Wildfly server epitome: tomcat jboss/wildfly. Click Pull or press Ctrl+Enter.

You should run into the tomcat:latest jboss/wildfly:latest paradigm in the list of images in the Services tool window.

Run a Docker container awarding server and deploy your application to it

In the Services tool window, correct-click the tomcat:latest jboss/wildfly:latest image and then click Create Container.
In the Create Docker Configuration dialog, exercise the following:
- Specify the name of the configuration: TomcatConfig WildflyConfig
- Specify the proper name of the container: TomcatContainer WildflyContainer
- Demark the container port 8080 to the host IP 127.0.0.ane and port 8080
- Map the WAR artifact output directory [PROJECT_PATH]/target to the Tomcat Wildfly server deployment directory: /usr/local/tomcat/webapps /opt/jboss/wildfly/standalone/deployments.
Click Run to showtime the container.
When the container starts, open up the post-obit address in your web browser: http://127.0.0.1:8080/DockerJavaWebApp-1.0-SNAPSHOT/

You should see the post-obit page:
