What is the Heroku Procfile for the Glassfish Maven Web Application?

Question

I wrote a simple Maven web application on Netbeans. My project works well on localhost on the Glassfish server. I tried to upload my project to Heroku, but I cannot achieve this. What is Procfile suitable for me?

pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId> <artifactId>tutorialspoint_jsf_2</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <packaging>war</packaging> <name>tutorialspoint_jsf_2</name> <properties> <endorsed.dir>${project.build.directory}/endorsed</endorsed.dir> <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding> </properties> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>javax</groupId> <artifactId>javaee-web-api</artifactId> <version>6.0</version> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId> <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId> <version>2.1.7</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId> <artifactId>jsf-impl</artifactId> <version>2.1.7</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.3.2</version> <configuration> <source>1.6</source> <target>1.6</target> <compilerArguments> <endorseddirs>${endorsed.dir}</endorseddirs> </compilerArguments> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.1.1</version> <configuration> <failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.1</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>validate</phase> <goals> <goal>copy</goal> </goals> <configuration> <outputDirectory>${endorsed.dir}</outputDirectory> <silent>true</silent> <artifactItems> <artifactItem> <groupId>javax</groupId> <artifactId>javaee-endorsed-api</artifactId> <version>6.0</version> <type>jar</type> </artifactItem> </artifactItems> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> 

I tried this, it does not work:

 web: java -cp target/dependency/*:target/classes com.mycompany.tutorialspoint_jsf_2.jsfYonetimliNesne 

sorry for my English

If you want your application to run on Glassfish (on Heroku), you need to use the built-in Glassfish. Do you know that?

 <dependency> <groupId>org.glassfish.extras</groupId> <artifactId>glassfish-embedded-all</artifactId> <version>3.1.1</version> </dependency> 

You can use as procfile, for example:

 web: java $JAVA_OPTS -cp target/classes:target/dependency/* com.example.Main 

In your main body, you start your glass fish as follows:

 String port = System.getenv("PORT"); GlassFishProperties gfProps = new GlassFishProperties(); gfProps.setPort("http-listener", Integer.parseInt(port)); GlassFish glassfish = GlassFishRuntime.bootstrap().newGlassFish(gfProps); glassfish.start(); Deployer deployer = glassfish.getDeployer(); File file = new File("YourSimpleMavenWebapplication.war"); deployer.deploy(file);
