# vaadin-javaee-jaas-example
An example Vaadin 8 Java EE application that demonstrates how to authenticate
and authorize users using JAAS and Vaadin CDI add-on, login form and view
navigator.
Tested with WildFly 10.1, but should work equally well with other Java EE 7
application servers (and probably Java EE 6 application servers once you
downgrade the `javaee-api` Maven dependency; you may also need to add
`web.xml` and more configuration).
## Adding users
WildFly has a security realm called *ApplicationRealm* configured by default.
To add a new user to *ApplicationRealm* execute the `add-user.{bat,sh}` script
within the `bin` folder of your WildFly installation and enter the requested
information. Choose *b) Application user* and add the user to the group
*users*.
You may need to restart WildFly if it is currently running to make it pick up
the new users.
## Building and running
You need Maven and Java 8 JDK to build and run the application.
Build the application WAR with `mvn package`, deploy it from
`target/jaasexample-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war` to the application server and open
in the browser.
