Java Role

[heynemann]

Create a role that installs java on the server.

Hi,
I want to start to contribute with the project, to implement the java role, I just have to install the jdk through the aptitude role?

[heynemann]

I guess. I have little to zero java experience :)

If you wanted to provision a server to run java applications, what would you
install on it?

Cheers,

Just the jdk with an application server, but this I think it's another role.

Cool...

Thanks,

I think that having a JavaRole would be as simple as using the AptitudeRole and use ensure_package_installed('jdk'), in this case. What would be really useful, I think, would be to provide Java-specific roles with more specific focus, like a TomcatRole, JettyRole and so on. Maybe even a JenkinsRole. Then it would justify having a java package in provy.

What do you think? If you guys agree, I'll close this ticket and open other ones for Java.

Brilliant.
