There are lots of ways to get your hands on WAS Liberty.

To download just the WAS Liberty runtime, go to the wasdev.net Downloads page, and choose between the latest version of the runtime or the latest beta. You can also download Liberty via Eclipse and WDT.

There are a few options to choose from (especially for the beta drivers). Choose the one that is most appropriate.

  • There are convenience archives for downloading pre-defined content groupings
  • You can add additional features from the repository using the installUtility or the Gradle plugins.

Note that for this particular sample, you will need a version of Liberty that has support for WebSockets 1.1, CDI 1.2, and Concurrency Utilities 1.0, as it has a little bit of all of those.

While the Java EE 7 Full Platform has all of these, a more lightweight approach would be to install the Java EE 7 Web Profile, and then to add on the concurrency-1.0 feature through either the installUtility or Gradle plugins, or through the WDT Install Add-ons wizard when creating or updating a Liberty runtime environment.

Tips

  • If you use bash, consider trying the command line tools, which provide tab-completion for the server and other commands.
