Stax Developer Community

Developer Community

I jumped the gun a little and replied to your blog post before noticing the forums, so here's the repost:

"This is great! I've used EC2 and judging by your demo this is a huge leap in ease of development and deployment. What is the plan for more technology stacks? Is there a process where we could do it ourselves / define custom ones? I would love to be able to get a Seam app up."

If this is something you think I could start playing with I would love a beta invite, thanks!

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the kind words, please send along any feedback you have as you start using it.

We're interested in adding a Seam template, we just haven't gotten to it yet. As long as Seam can run on Tomcat, it should be straightforward to add it to your Stax webapps.

We do have a process for building these stacks that we plan to expose after we bake it a little more. When using the Stax SDK to create your applications, you can use the -t flag to pass the path to your own application templates (once we doc how to build them). If you create a simple Stax app using the basic J2EE template (stax create -t simple myseamapp), and then update it to support a simple Seam configuration, I can work with you to convert it into a template that you can use when creating your apps. If its generic enough, we could even set it up as a template that is available in the app wizard.

I sent you a private message with the invite code from the TechCrunch article that you can use to sign up.

Looking forward to hearing how it goes with integrating Seam into a Stax app. Let me know if you need some help along the way.

Hmm, yes Seam will run inside JBoss' embedded mode in Tomcat, though I have yet to try to play with it. I guess my original questions probably should have been "Do you intend to offer JBoss in addition to Tomcat?". This of course leads in to the broader question of what kinds of support will your service offer for clustering?

I successfully deployed a seam application on Stax. See my blog post. You don't need an embedded JBoss to run seam apps in Tomcat. If you are interested i will send you configuration details.
Hi Daniel,

I want to deploy my SEAM application to Stax. I use Maven, did you use Maven? If so can you please tell me how to deploy the SEAM application using Maven? Maybe send me your maven pom?

I had this problem:
