I've figured out how to serve static content, like a ton of images, that you don't
want to put into a war file.
I've seen partial answers to this but noone really put it all together.
So, here's what you do:
--Create a directory on the server for the pictures or static content.
--In this directory create another directory with a .war at the end of the name.
| Example: /opt/static_content/static_content.war
|
--Place all pictures and static content jpgs in this the .war directory.
--In your .war directory create a WEB-INF directory and place a property
web.xml file in it. This is an basicly exploded war file. There doesn't
have to be anything special in the web.xml, just valid web-app tags.
--Add new module in application.xml with your .war directory.
| example:
| <module>
| <web>
| <web-uri>static_content.war</web-uri>
| <context-root>/mypictures</context-root>
| </web>
| </module>
|
--edit /server/default/conf/jboss-service.xml and add the directory you
added for the static content to URLS attribute tag inside
the org.jboss.deployment.scanner.URLDeploymentScanner mbean
| example:
| <attribute name="URLs">
| deploy/, file:/opt/static_content/
| </attribute>
|
This will let jboss scan that directory for any changes in that directory.
This needs to be the directory above the .war dir
Now you should be able to access your content by browing to the context
| Example :<img src=" /mypictures/pic1.jpg"/>
|
Hope this helps some people out.
