I'll look at the UI validation tomorrow.

For the Archetype, I simply accepted your PR. If you want to change something about that, please simply make another PR.

Obviously, please ensure whatever is supposed to be supported aligns with what the GlassFish project wants to do with Docker and profiles for users. That is what we try to ensure with other vendors like IBM for Liberty. Liberty does not have different images for different profiles as that is handled by the server.xml instead. Other vendors like Payara have different images for different profiles. I have no way to know what GlassFish wants to do with its Docker images but would want to ensure nothing is potentially misleading or inappropriate. I do know GlassFish has different binary distributions for the platform and web profile. I think that avoids the situation of users wanting the web profile but accidentally using features that are not actually in the web profile.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [jakarta.ee-community] [jakartaee-ambassadors] GlassFish Docker Support in Jakarta Starter

 

Great news, Reza!

Now that I look at it, I see that some runtimes, e.g. OpenLiberty, use the same Docker image for Platform and both profiles. GlassFish Docker support is restricted only to Platform. I think we can change this in the archetype and UI to also support profiles with the GlassFish Full Docker image, right?

And I think I found a glitch in the UI - if I select GlassFish Docker, then change Java version to some other than 17 (GlassFish only supports Java 17 with the stock Docker image), then Docker support is unselected but the No option is not selected. What's worse, when I select Java 17 again, it should be possible to select the Docker option but it's not clickable. I attach a video recording.

Hi folks,

We've now added GlassFish Docker support in the Jakarta Starter:
https://start.jakarta.ee. Please check it out. As part of the release,
we've also tried to solve the typical view expired problems that usually
happen with JSF and PrimeFaces. If you run into issues, we would
appreciate it if you could let us know. Of course we will keep an eye
out in the logs anyway for signs of trouble.

Next up hopefully is support for the EE 11 Web Profile or initial
support for Helidon.

Cheers,

Reza
