DataSourceRealm and TomEE DataSource

Quick start

To test it:

mvn clean package tomee:run

How does it work?

A datasource is defined in tomee.xml:

<Resource id="myDataSource" type="DataSource" /> <!-- standard properties -->

Then this datasource is referenced in server.xml:

<Realm
    className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm"
    dataSourceName="myDataSource"
    userTable="users"
    userNameCol="user_name"
    userCredCol="user_pass"
    userRoleTable="user_roles"
    roleNameCol="role_name"/>

To initialize the datasource (for the test) we used the TomEE hook which provides a file import-.sql. The file should be in the classpath of the datasource so we added it to lib (by default in the classloader). It simply contains the table creations and the insertion of the admin'' tomee'' with the password ``tomee''.

Test it

Go to http://localhost:8080/realm-in-tomee-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT/, then connect using the login/password tomee/tomee. You should see ``Home''.
