Blab-a-Gag is a fairly simple forum type application which allows:
/reset
will reset the data in the database with a load of:
/feed
shows the jokes/heckles that are relevant to the current user.
/blabbers
shows a list of all other users and allows the current user to listen or ignore.
/profile
allows the current user to modify their profile.
/login
allows you to log in to your account
/register
allows you to create a new user account
/tools
shows a tools page that shows a fortune or lets you ping a host.
To build Verademo Maven is required.
mvn package
will build the web application and output a war file to target/verademo.war
. This war file can be uploaded to Veracode for static analysis.
To run Verademo MySQL and Tomcat are required.
The simplest way to aquire these on MacOS is via Homebrew. Install Homebrew then:
brew install mysql tomcat
Set up a database in MySQL called blab
with a user of blab
and password z2^E6J4$;u;d
Deploy the build output war file to Tomcat.
Open /reset
in your browser and follow the instructions to prep the database
Login with a username/password as defined in Utils.java
Verademo will also run out-of-the-box in AWS. Simply upload the target/verademo.war
file into a Tomcat Elastic Beanstalk environment (with associated Amazon RDS). The database credentials listed above are not required when running in AWS.
On the first environment deployment, a script will automatically setup the database. Subsequent application re-deploys (without environment re-deploy), or application server restarts will not alter the database.
