Jetty + JRebel + Maven

To reach high productivity it is paramount to use JRebel from ZeroTurnaround so that your modifications are reloaded automatically without requiring a context reload or a container restart. Below we show how you can run any Mentawai web application with Jetty + Maven + JRebel.

Configuring Jetty in Maven:

		<plugin>
    		<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
    		<artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    		<version>7.1.0.v20100505</version>
    		<configuration> 
    		    <webApp>${basedir}/target/${project.artifactId}.war</webApp>
				<webAppConfig>
					<contextPath>/${project.artifactId}</contextPath>
    			</webAppConfig>
    			<reload>manual</reload>
				<connectors>
					<connector implementation="org.eclipse.jetty.server.bio.SocketConnector">
						<port>8080</port>
					</connector>
				</connectors> 
    		</configuration>
    	</plugin>   




Starting Jetty with JRebel:

#!/bin/bash
export REBEL_HOME=~/JRebel
export MAVEN_OPTS="-noverify -javaagent:$REBEL_HOME/jrebel.jar $MAVEN_OPTS"
mvn jetty:run
