# Java EE (and Docker) Quickstart

Create a Thin WAR Java EE project. Name it "micro".
    Create a Dockerfile in project folder with the following content:
        
            
            FROM airhacks/wildfly
            COPY ./target/micro.war ${DEPLOYMENT_DIR}                
            
        
        
           Also airhacks/payara, airhacks/tomee images are available from https://hub.docker.com/u/airhacks/.
           The docker files are maintained in https://github.com/AdamBien/docklands.
        
    
    Perform build from project folder: mvn package && docker build -t airhacks/micro .
    Run the project: docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name micro airhacks/micro

Behind the scenes:


    CentOS 7, JDK 1.8, the chosen application server (WildFly, Payara, TomEE) is going to be downloaded the first time (~560 MB, see https://youtu.be/hoqJdH87e7g) from https://hub.docker.com/u/airhacks/.
    All subsequent builds will only rebuild the Thin WAR -- it will take milliseconds. The smaller the WAR, the higher the productivity: https://youtu.be/5N4EUDhrkec
