This is my notebook for the Jetty API. Jetty provides an Web server and javax.servlet container. It can be embedded in devices, tools, frameworks, application servers, and clusters. I find it more easier for developping and testing a new web application as it doesn't require some deployement descriptors, some configuration files, a web container, etc... like in apache tomcat. As I will show below, a whole web applications can be embedded in a single java class.
As an example, I wrote a couchdb-like web application, named DivanDB ('divan' is the french word for couch), using Jetty and Berkeleydb. The source file is available on github at:(See also my previous post :CouchDB for Bioinformatics: Storing SNPs - My Notebook)
The BerkeleyDB-base key/value datastore
The class BDBStorage consists in a BerkeleyDB environment and a BerkeleyDB database. The database stores keys and the values as String./** a berkeley-db String/String datastore */
private static class BDBStorage
{
/** bdb environment */
private Environment environment=null;
/** string/string database */
private Database database=null;
private BDBStorage()
{
}
/** open environment & database */
private void open(File dbHome) throws DatabaseException
{
(...)
}
/** close environment & database */
private void close()
{
(...)
}
}
The web context
A servlet context is created where we put a BDBStorage. We also tell the context about the DivanDB servlet and the path of the application.
DivanDB app=new DivanDB();
BDBStorage storage=new BDBStorage();
ServletContextHandler context = new ServletContextHandler();
context.setAttribute(STORAGE_ATTRIBUTE, storage);
context.addServlet(new ServletHolder(app),"/*");
context.setContextPath("/divandb");
context.setResourceBase(".");
The server
The embedded server listens to the specified port. We add the context to the server, it is started and listen to the queries forever./* create a new server */
Server server = new Server(port);
/* context */
server.setHandler(context);
/* start server */
server.start();
/* loop forever */
server.join();
The Servlet
The servlet DivanDB receives the POST, GET and DELETE queries just like couchdb. It decodes the JSON data using a JSON API provided in the jetty distribution. See the code for more information.Start the server
$java -jar dist/divandb.jar
