[Lift] Re: Lift for non UI, xml REST server embedded in existing application?
@David Do you want everything to live in the same WAR file? ... No war at all, its a standalone app. Right now I have an embedded Jetty server with a registered jetty..RequestHandler. This app monitors machine tools on manufacturing floors, buffers the data, and provide a client http api for performing both one-time queries and for streaming data to the client. It connects to many tools and serves many clients. (A client may be performing predictive analysis, optimizing power loads, etc.) I suppose what I'm looking for is to leverage Lift's request parsing and dispatching, concurrency/actor infrastructure, Jetty continuation impl, that kind of stuff. I need to keep the footprint as low as possible as the manufacturing shops don't like to install very powerful server boxes on the floor to run these agents. (For the interested, more info can found at http://mtconnect.org.) The app is written in Scala of course, but I'm a complete newbie wrt Lift. I haven't even read the book yet (hey, I just bought it the other day!), let alone dug into the code, so I could be asking for something outside the Lift's use-model. Hope this context clarifies. -barry --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Lift group.

[Lift] Re: Lift for non UI, xml REST server embedded in existing application?
(Hmm, I replied yesterday but never saw the post, so apologies if both eventually show up) Do you want everything to live in the same WAR file? This is a standalone app -- no war file. Currently it is using an embedded jetty server. The application (agent) monitors machine tools on the manufacturing floor and provides an http client api to higher-level applications (eg, that might do predictive analysis, power optimization, etc). The agent monitors many tools and can server many applications. Clients can also request the agent stream data to it. The boxes installed on the floor are not high end, so I need to keep the footprint as low as possible. (For the curious, see mtconnect.org) I guess what I am looking to lift for is cleaner request parsing, dispatching to handlers, and especially infrastructure for concurrency (via actors) and streaming of data over http. But I don't necessarily need for lift to be the application framework, although I won't discount that if lift can be configured to include/boostrap only the services that the agent actually needs. Hopefully this adds some useful context. -barry --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Lift group.

[Lift] Lift for non UI, xml REST server embedded in existing application?
I'm looking for a bootstrap example of integrating lift into an existing application that needs to server up XML documents via a REST api. The application is already operational and cannot be reconfigured to live within lift -- I'm looking to lift to add just the http service and infrastructure. Does such a beast exist? (BTW, I have the lift book, but it seems only to discuss adding an api to UI based lift application.) thanks! -barry --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Lift group.
