 Welcome to this screencast. Get started with Red Hat J-BOSS Enterprise Application Platform 7. My name is Thomas Kvansstrom and I work as a J-BOSS Technology Evangelist at Red Hat. I'm going to guide you through the installation and setup for a development environment using J-BOSS EAP. But first, let's look at some of the benefits with J-BOSS EAP. J-BOSS EAP is fully compliant with the latest Java EE7 standard that has a lot of great benefits. It boasts developer productivity and it produces less boilerplate code and configuration. J-BOSS EAP 7 is very lean and fast. It will automatically adopt to your application's needs and it also adopts to the resources available by your infrastructure. J-BOSS EAP will generally start and deploy your applications within seconds. J-BOSS EAP 7 is also very flexible and can easily run on everything from small devices like Raspberry Pis to big mainframes. But it's not only the technology that is flexible. J-BOSS EAP 7 is fully open source and are free to use for development purposes. For production usage, the subscriptions are free to move from old to new hardware or from your own data centers to the cloud. These are some of the reasons why J-BOSS EAP is the most popular open source Java EE compliant application server in the market today. Now, let's move on and see how you can download and install J-BOSS EAP 7. Start by pointing your browser to developers.redhat.com. This is a great resource for information for developers that want to learn more about developing using Red Hat or other open source products and frameworks. From the homepage, we are going to choose technologies from the menu and click on Red Hat, J-BOSS and the price application platform. And since we want to get started with development, we are going to select Get Started. Here we are presented with a simplified step-by-step guide that includes the steps a developer typically takes to set up a development environment. For more details on each step, please see the Getting Started guide in the documentation. As you will see, setting up J-BOSS EAP is actually very easy. First step is to make sure that we have version 8 of Java Development Kit installed. Next step is to download both the development tools like an IDE and an app and the application server itself. Luckily Red Hat provides a package that contains the most common tools and J-BOSS EAP in a single package called J-BOSS Developer Studio with J-BOSS EAP. To download this package, you will have to be registered as a Red Hat developer. If you are already registered, you can log in otherwise go through the registration steps. After that, the download will start automatically. When the download has finished, we can move on to the third step, which is to run the installer. Here it differs a bit depending on your environment. If you are using Mac or Windows and have a Java Development Kit installed, you should be able to right-click on the file and select Open with Jar Launcher. If you are using Linux or right-click doesn't work, you can start the installer by executing Java minus Jar and point to the downloaded Jar file like this. This will start the installation, we said, and all we have to do is to follow the instructions. First we accept the ULA and then we select the target folder, also which Java Virtual Machine to use and which I guess to install J-BOSS EAP. Finally, we review the summary and the installation starts. When the installation is done, J-BOSS Developer Studio will automatically start for the first time. When J-BOSS Developer Studio is up and running, we can use one of more than 80 Quick Starts to get started with our project, so we are going to use Hello World here. Select Hello World and that will trigger the download of that Quick Start and create that project. After a while, when everything is ready, we have a working project here. To deploy the project, all we need to do is to start the server. We do that by selecting the Server in the Server tab and clicking on the Start button. It will start in a couple of seconds, it will start J-BOSS EAP. Then we can click on the project, we can select Run, Run and then Run on Server. This will automatically deploy the Maven project onto J-BOSS EAP 7. To summarize, in less than 5 minutes, we can actually get up and running with a fully working development environment using the J-BOSS Developer Studio with EAP package. Thank you for watching this screencast. Hope you enjoyed it. Goodbye.
