Spring MVC REST Sample using Undertow Embedded Server

Minimalistic scaffolding for a small portable web app.

Quick start:

gradle clean fatJar
java -jar build/libs/spring-undertow-1.0.jar

Then point your browser to http://localhost:8080/. This should redirect to http://localhost:8080/myapp/static/hello.html, which will display simple form that uses REST call to display 'hello' message.

How it works:

• UndertowMain class defines constants like LISTENER_PORT, etc.
• Undertow server is configured and launched from UndertowMain.main()
• Spring context initialized in UndertowMain.createSpringWebAppContext()
• properties loaded from resources/app.properties file
• Spring @Configurations are in ys.rest.config package
• @RestControllers are in ys.rest.handlers package
• JSON response generation using Jackson library
• static content is served from resources/static folder
• Spring MVC dispatcher servlet is attached in UndertowMain.createDispatcherServlet
• application is packaged into single jar (11Mb) to simplify delivery
