##Overview This module adds support for installing and managing the Glassfish J2EE application server. It supports Glassfish J2EE version 3.1 and 4.0, running on EL and Debian linux distributions.

##Features This module can do the following:

Install Glassfish J2EE Application server, either by downloading a Zip file or installing from a package.
Install and configure Java if appropriate.
Manage user accounts if appropriate.
Configure PATH to support Glassfish.
Create Linux service to run Glassfish on system startup.
Create asadmin password files for different users or locations.
Install additional JARs if appropriate.
Create and manage Glassfish clusters, including:
Domain Administration Service (DAS)
Nodes
Instances
Manage various configuration elements of Glassfish, including:
Applications
Auth Realm
Custom Resources
Log Attribute properties
Javamail Resources
JDBC Connection Pools
JDBC Resources
JMS Resources
JVM Options
Network Listeners
Resource references
Set options
System properties

Further features that are likely to be added include:

~~Additional support for Cluster environments, such as targeting resources at cluster.~~

##Requirements This module requires the Puppetlabs-Stdlib module >= 3.2.0.

##Usage Glassfish can be installed and configured with a default configuration with:

include glassfish

This will install Java 7 OpenJDK, create a Glassfish group and user account, download and install Glassfish J2EE v3.1.2.2 using a Zip file. No domains are created by default.

To install Glassfish using a package manager, such as yum or apt, you could do:

class { 'glassfish':
  install_method => 'package', 
  package_prefix => 'glassfish'
}

package_prefix can be used to change the package naming structure. The required version is appended to the end to form the package name, e.g.: glassfish3-3.1.2.2

To create and configure a domain upon installation, you could do:

class { 'glassfish': 
  create_domain => true, 
  domain_name   => 'gf_domain', 
  portbase      => '8000'
}

This will install Glassfish and create a domain called 'gf_domain' using portbase 8000, with a default username/password of 'admin/adminadmin'.

If you are using other means to manage user accounts on this host, then you can stop this module managing user accounts by doing:

class { 'glassfish':
  manage_accounts => false 
}

This module also provides several defined types which can be used to simplify other tasks, such as creating a domain using glassfish::create_domain to create a new domain, or glassfish::create_cluster to create a new cluster.

It is also possible to use the types directly.
E.g.

  jdbcconnectionpool { 'ConPool':
    ensure       => present,
    resourcetype => 'javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource',
    dsclassname  => 'oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleConnectionPoolDataSource',
    properties   => {
      'user'     => 'con_user', 
      'password' => 'con_password',
      'url'      => 'jdbc\:oracle\:thin\:@localhost\:1521\:XE'
    },
    portbase     => '8000',
    asadminuser  => 'admin',
    user         => 'glassfish'
  }

  jdbcresource { 'jdbc/ConPool':
    ensure         => present,
    connectionpool => 'ConPool',
    portbase       => '8000',
    target         => 'aCluster',
    asadminuser    => 'admin',
    user           => 'glassfish'
  }

##Limitations This module has primarily been developed and tested on CentOS 6. It has also been lightly tested on Debian and Ubuntu, so should support most common Linux distributions.
