The kitchensink
quickstart demonstrates a localized Jakarta EE 10 web-enabled database application using JSF, CDI, EJB, JPA, and Bean Validation.
The kitchensink
quickstart is a deployable Maven 3 project designed to help you get your foot in the door developing with Jakarta EE 10 on WildFly Application Server.
It demonstrates how to create a localized Jakarta EE 10 compliant application using JSF, CDI, Jakarta REST, EJB, JPA, and Bean Validation. A localized application is one that supports multiple languages. It also includes a persistence unit and some sample persistence and transaction code to introduce you to database access in enterprise Java.
This quickstart has been enhanced to provide localization of labels and messages. A user sets the preferred language choice in the browser and, if the application supports that language, the application web page is rendered in that language. For demonstration purposes, this quickstart has been tranlated into French(fr) and Spanish (es) using http://translate.google.com, so the translations may not be ideal.
The following changes were made to the quickstart to enable it to use the browser preferred locale setting when displaying the web page:
-
Properties files were created for the supported languages.
-
This quickstart is localized for Spanish and French. You can add additional language support by creating properties files with the appropriate suffix and populating the properties with translated values.
-
The JSF resource Bundle is located at `src/main/resources/org/jboss/as/quickstarts/kitchensink/bundle/Resources_(es|fr).properties
-
Messages generated by Java code (e.g. log messages and messages sent to the UI) are internationalized using JBoss Logging. The log messages are accessed via the
org.jboss.as.quickstarts.kitchensink.util.KitchensinkMessages
interface, and the message bundles are located at:src/main/resources/org/jboss/as/quickstarts/kitchensink/util/KitchensinkMessages.i18_(es|fr).properties
-
The message bundle consumed by Bean Validation is located at
src/main/resources/ValidationMessages.properties
. This is defined by the bean validation specification.
-
-
The following XML was added to the
src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/faces-config.xml
file. When you create a property file for a new language, you must add the supported locale to this file.<application> <locale-config> <default-locale>en</default-locale> <supported-locale>en-US</supported-locale> <supported-locale>fr</supported-locale> <supported-locale>fr-FR</supported-locale> <supported-locale>es</supported-locale> <supported-locale>es-ES</supported-locale> </locale-config> <resource-bundle> <base-name>org/jboss/as/quickstarts/kitchensink/bundle/Resources</base-name> <var>bundle</var> </resource-bundle> </application>
-
The
src/main/java/org/jboss/as/quickstarts/kitchensink/model/Member.java
file was modififed to add the message key to @Pattern annotation.@NotNull @Size(min = 1, max = 25) @Pattern(regexp = "[A-Za-z ]*", message = "{name_validation_message}") private String name;
-
The
src/main/java/org/jboss/as/quickstarts/kitchensink/util/KitchensinkMessages.java
file was created, which defines default messages in English. Thejboss-logging-processor
will automatically generate an implementation for you, which can be accesssed via theMESSAGES
static variable.@MessageBundle(projectCode = "") public interface KitchensinkMessages { KitchensinkMessages MESSAGES = Messages.getBundle(KitchensinkMessages.class, FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getLocale()); @Message("Registered!") String registeredMessage(); @Message("Successfully registered!") String registerSuccessfulMessage(); @Message("Registration failed:") String registerFailMessage(); @Message("Registration failed. See server log for more information.") String defaultErrorMessage(); }
-
The
src/main/java/org/jboss/as/quickstarts/kitchensink/controller/MemberController.java
file was modified as follows:-
Messages strings were replaced with strings retrieved using the resource bundle property names. For example:
FacesMessage m = new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, KitchensinkMessages.MESSAGES.registeredMessage(), KitchensinkMessages.MESSAGES.registerSuccessfulMessage());
-
-
The
src/main/webapp/index.xhtml
file were modified.-
Strings for headers, messages, labels were replaced with the appropriate
# {bundle.<property>}
, for example:# {bundle.memberWelcomeHeader}
.

- H2 Database
-
This quickstart uses the H2 database included with WildFly Application Server 35. It is a lightweight, relational example datasource that is used for examples only. It is not robust or scalable, is not supported, and should NOT be used in a production environment.
- Datasource Configuration File
-
This quickstart uses a
*-ds.xml
datasource configuration file for convenience and ease of database configuration. These files are deprecated in WildFly and should not be used in a production environment. Instead, you should configure the datasource using the Management CLI or Management Console. Datasource configuration is documented in the Configuration Guide.
The application this project produces is designed to be run on WildFly Application Server 35 or later.
All you need to build this project is Java SE 17.0 or later, and Maven 3.6.0 or later. See Configure Maven to Build and Deploy the Quickstarts to make sure you are configured correctly for testing the quickstarts.
In the following instructions, replace WILDFLY_HOME
with the actual path to your WildFly installation. The installation path is described in detail here: Use of WILDFLY_HOME and JBOSS_HOME Variables.
When you see the replaceable variable QUICKSTART_HOME, replace it with the path to the root directory of all of the quickstarts.
-
Open a terminal and navigate to the root of the WildFly directory.
-
Start the WildFly server with the default profile by typing the following command.
$ WILDFLY_HOME/bin/standalone.sh
NoteFor Windows, use the WILDFLY_HOME\bin\standalone.bat
script.
-
Make sure WildFly server is started.
-
Open a terminal and navigate to the root directory of this quickstart.
-
Type the following command to build the quickstart.
$ mvn clean package
-
Type the following command to deploy the quickstart.
$ mvn wildfly:deploy
This deploys the kitchensink/target/kitchensink.war
to the running instance of the server.
You should see a message in the server log indicating that the archive deployed successfully.
The application will be running at the following URL: http://localhost:8080/kitchensink/.
You will see the following warnings in the server log. You can ignore these warnings.
WFLYJCA0091: -ds.xml file deployments are deprecated. Support may be removed in a future version.
This quickstart includes integration tests, which are located under the src/test/
directory. The integration tests verify that the quickstart runs correctly when deployed on the server.
Follow these steps to run the integration tests.
-
Make sure WildFly server is started.
-
Make sure the quickstart is deployed.
-
Type the following command to run the
verify
goal with theintegration-testing
profile activated.$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing
Instead of using a standard WildFly server distribution, you can alternatively provision a WildFly server to deploy and run the quickstart. The functionality is provided by the WildFly Maven Plugin, and you may find its configuration in the quickstart pom.xml
:
<profile>
<id>provisioned-server</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<discover-provisioning-info>
<version>${version.server}</version>
</discover-provisioning-info>
<add-ons>...</add-ons>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>package</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
...
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
When built, the provisioned WildFly server can be found in the target/server
directory, and its usage is similar to a standard server distribution, with the simplification that there is never the need to specify the server configuration to be started.
Follow these steps to run the quickstart using the provisioned server.
-
Make sure the server is provisioned.
$ mvn clean package
-
Start the WildFly provisioned server, using the WildFly Maven Plugin
start
goal.$ mvn wildfly:start
-
Type the following command to run the integration tests.
$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing
-
Shut down the WildFly provisioned server.
$ mvn wildfly:shutdown
On OpenShift, the S2I build with Apache Maven uses an openshift
Maven profile to provision a WildFly server, deploy and run the quickstart in OpenShift environment.
The server provisioning functionality is provided by the WildFly Maven Plugin, and you may find its configuration in the quickstart pom.xml
:
<profile>
<id>openshift</id>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<discover-provisioning-info>
<version>${version.server}</version>
<context>cloud</context>
</discover-provisioning-info>
<add-ons>...</add-ons>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>package</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
...
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
You may note that unlike the provisioned-server
profile it uses the cloud context which enables a configuration tuned for OpenShift environment.
The plugin uses WildFly Glow to discover the feature packs and layers required to run the application, and provisions a server containing those layers.
If you get an error or the server is missing some functionality which cannot be auto-discovered, you can download the WildFly Glow CLI and run the following command to see more information about what add-ons are available:
wildfly-glow show-add-ons
This section contains the basic instructions to build and deploy this quickstart to WildFly for OpenShift or WildFly for OpenShift Online using Helm Charts.
-
You must be logged in OpenShift and have an
oc
client to connect to OpenShift -
Helm must be installed to deploy the backend on OpenShift.
Once you have installed Helm, you need to add the repository that provides Helm Charts for WildFly.
$ helm repo add wildfly https://docs.wildfly.org/wildfly-charts/
"wildfly" has been added to your repositories
$ helm search repo wildfly
NAME CHART VERSION APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
wildfly/wildfly ... ... Build and Deploy WildFly applications on OpenShift
wildfly/wildfly-common ... ... A library chart for WildFly-based applications
Log in to your OpenShift instance using the oc login
command.
The backend will be built and deployed on OpenShift with a Helm Chart for WildFly.
Navigate to the root directory of this quickstart and run the following command:
$ helm install kitchensink -f charts/helm.yaml wildfly/wildfly --wait --timeout=10m0s
NAME: kitchensink
...
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
This command will return once the application has successfully deployed. In case of a timeout, you can check the status of the application with the following command in another terminal:
oc get deployment kitchensink
The Helm Chart for this quickstart contains all the information to build an image from the source code using S2I on Java 17:
build:
uri: https://github.com/wildfly/quickstart.git
ref: main
contextDir: kitchensink
deploy:
replicas: 1
This will create a new deployment on OpenShift and deploy the application.
If you want to see all the configuration elements to customize your deployment you can use the following command:
$ helm show readme wildfly/wildfly
Get the URL of the route to the deployment.
$ oc get route kitchensink -o jsonpath="{.spec.host}"
Access the application in your web browser using the displayed URL.
The integration tests included with this quickstart, which verify that the quickstart runs correctly, may also be run with the quickstart running on OpenShift.
Note
|
The integration tests expect a deployed application, so make sure you have deployed the quickstart on OpenShift before you begin. |
Run the integration tests using the following command to run the verify
goal with the integration-testing
profile activated and the proper URL:
$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing -Dserver.host=https://$(oc get route kitchensink --template='{{ .spec.host }}')
Note
|
The tests are using SSL to connect to the quickstart running on OpenShift. So you need the certificates to be trusted by the machine the tests are run from. |
For Kubernetes, the build with Apache Maven uses an openshift
Maven profile to provision a WildFly server, suitable for running on Kubernetes.
The server provisioning functionality is provided by the WildFly Maven Plugin, and you may find its configuration in the quickstart pom.xml
:
<profile>
<id>openshift</id>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>

<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>package</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>

You may note that unlike the provisioned-server
profile it uses the cloud context which enables a configuration tuned for Kubernetes environment.
The plugin uses WildFly Glow to discover the feature packs and layers required to run the application, and provisions a server containing those layers.
If you get an error or the server is missing some functionality which cannot be auto-discovered, you can download the WildFly Glow CLI and run the following command to see more information about what add-ons are available:

This section contains the basic instructions to build and deploy this quickstart to Kubernetes using Helm Charts.
In this example we are using Minikube as our Kubernetes provider. See the Minikube Getting Started guide for how to install it. After installing it, we start it with 4GB of memory.
minikube start --memory='4gb'
The above command should work if you have Docker installed on your machine. If, you are using Podman instead of Docker, you will also need to pass in --driver=podman
, as covered in the Minikube documentation.
Once Minikube has started, we need to enable its registry since that is where we will push the image needed to deploy the quickstart, and where we will tell the Helm charts to download it from.
minikube addons enable registry
In order to be able to push images to the registry we need to make it accessible from outside Kubernetes. How we do this depends on your operating system. All the below examples will expose it at localhost:5000
# On Mac:
docker run --rm -it --network=host alpine ash -c "apk add socat && socat TCP-LISTEN:5000,reuseaddr,fork TCP:$(minikube ip):5000"
# On Linux:
kubectl port-forward --namespace kube-system service/registry 5000:80 &
# On Windows:
kubectl port-forward --namespace kube-system service/registry 5000:80
docker run --rm -it --network=host alpine ash -c "apk add socat && socat TCP-LISTEN:5000,reuseaddr,fork TCP:host.docker.internal:5000"
-
Helm must be installed to deploy the backend on Kubernetes.
Once you have installed Helm, you need to add the repository that provides Helm Charts for WildFly.
$ helm repo add wildfly https://docs.wildfly.org/wildfly-charts/
"wildfly" has been added to your repositories
$ helm search repo wildfly
NAME CHART VERSION APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
wildfly/wildfly ... ... Build and Deploy WildFly applications on OpenShift
wildfly/wildfly-common ... ... A library chart for WildFly-based applications
The backend will be built and deployed on Kubernetes with a Helm Chart for WildFly.
Navigate to the root directory of this quickstart and run the following commands:
mvn -Popenshift package wildfly:image
This will use the openshift
Maven profile we saw earlier to build the application, and create a Docker image containing the WildFly server with the application deployed. The name of the image will be kitchensink
.
Next we need to tag the image and make it available to Kubernetes. You can push it to a registry like quay.io
. In this case we tag as localhost:5000/kitchensink:latest
and push it to the internal registry in our Kubernetes instance:
# Tag the image
docker tag kitchensink localhost:5000/kitchensink:latest
# Push the image to the registry
docker push localhost:5000/kitchensink:latest
In the below call to helm install
which deploys our application to Kubernetes, we are passing in some extra arguments to tweak the Helm build:
-
--set build.enabled=false
- This turns off the s2i build for the Helm chart since Kubernetes, unlike OpenShift, does not have s2i. Instead, we are providing the image to use. -
--set deploy.route.enabled=false
- This disables route creation normally performed by the Helm chart. On Kubernetes we will use port-forwards instead to access our application, since routes are an OpenShift specific concept and thus not available on Kubernetes. -
--set image.name="localhost:5000/kitchensink"
- This tells the Helm chart to use the image we built, tagged and pushed to Kubernetes' internal registry above.
$ helm install kitchensink -f charts/helm.yaml wildfly/wildfly --wait --timeout=10m0s --set build.enabled=false --set deploy.route.enabled=false --set image.name="localhost:5000/kitchensink"
NAME: kitchensink
...
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
This command will return once the application has successfully deployed. In case of a timeout, you can check the status of the application with the following command in another terminal:
kubectl get deployment kitchensink
The Helm Chart for this quickstart contains all the information to build an image from the source code using S2I on Java 17:
build:
uri: https://github.com/wildfly/quickstart.git
ref: main
contextDir: kitchensink
deploy:
replicas: 1
This will create a new deployment on Kubernetes and deploy the application.
If you want to see all the configuration elements to customize your deployment you can use the following command:
$ helm show readme wildfly/wildfly
To be able to connect to our application running in Kubernetes from outside, we need to set up a port-forward to the kitchensink
service created for us by the Helm chart.
This service will run on port 8080
, and we set up the port forward to also run on port 8080
:
kubectl port-forward service/kitchensink 8080:8080
The server can now be accessed via http://localhost:8080
from outside Kubernetes. Note that the command to create the port-forward will not return, so it is easiest to run this in a separate terminal.
The integration tests included with this quickstart, which verify that the quickstart runs correctly, may also be run with the quickstart running on Kubernetes.
Note
|
The integration tests expect a deployed application, so make sure you have deployed the quickstart on Kubernetes before you begin. |
Run the integration tests using the following command to run the verify
goal with the integration-testing
profile activated and the proper URL:
$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing -Dserver.host=http://localhost:8080
