Run embedded Wildfly via Maven

[aerben]

For developers that are too lazy to set up a local managed instance of Wildfly (or Glassfish etc.), it would be convenient to run Wildfly with the webapp deployed automatically just like it is done with the tomcat and jetty plugin for maven.

https://docs.jboss.org/wildfly/plugins/maven/latest/

BTW: That page looks just as crappy as all of the other maven site-plugin generated pages. No wonder everyone hates maven - at least sometimes.

Sounds like a great idea. I tried the wildfly-maven-plugin via "mvn wildfly:run" already... Didn't work for me, but i can't remember the exact error message anymore.

What would we have to add/change to make it work?

I'll try to find a working configuration. I really dislike using a configured local instance of Wildfly - when it works with maven, it should work everywhere, which cannot be said about locally installed instances.

Configured it, works like a charm.
Please double-check if it works for you, too.
The context is deployed on "fx-pastebin" on localhost, just as you would expect.
