Configuration and Usage of the Jetty HTTP server embedded in SMILA

Configuration

To configure the embedded Jetty server, place a file named jetty.xml in the configuration directory org.eclipse.smila.http.server. The default file (and probably the most simple one) looks like this:

<Configure id="Server" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server">

   <Set name="ThreadPool">
     <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.util.thread.QueuedThreadPool">
       <Set name="minThreads">10</Set>
       <Set name="maxThreads">200</Set>
       <Set name="detailedDump">false</Set>
     </New>
   </Set>

   <Call name="addConnector">
     <Arg>
         <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector">
           <Set name="host"><Property name="jetty.host" /></Set>
           <Set name="port"><Property name="jetty.port" default="8080"/></Set>
           <Set name="maxIdleTime">300000</Set>
           <Set name="Acceptors">2</Set>
           <Set name="statsOn">false</Set>
           <Set name="confidentialPort">8443</Set>

<Set name="lowResourcesConnections">20000</Set> <Set name="lowResourcesMaxIdleTime">5000</Set>

         </New>
     </Arg>
   </Call>

   <Set name="handler">
     <New id="DefaultHandler" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.DefaultHandler"/>
   </Set>

   <Set name="stopAtShutdown">true</Set>
   <Set name="sendServerVersion">true</Set>
   <Set name="sendDateHeader">true</Set>
   <Set name="gracefulShutdown">1000</Set>
   <Set name="dumpAfterStart">false</Set>
   <Set name="dumpBeforeStop">false</Set>

</Configure>

It basically configures the server to listen at port 8080 and adds a default handler that responses with HTTP status 404 (NOT FOUND) if no other handler was found to handle the request, and it lists the available handlers.

For more details on all the configuration properties used here refer to the Jetty documentation next door.
