z2-environment

The z2-environment is an open source infrastructure to develop, configure, and run standard Java solutions without build infrastructure nor deployment procedures and so reduces development operations costs significantly.

During development and maintenance you do not need to have a local build environment installed that complements your source code.

The z2-Environment rebuilds Java sources as required and selectively from your development workspace leading to fast development roundtrips and consistent deployments, and ultimately to minimized integration pains.

This Wiki contains answers to all kinds of practical questions on using Z2.

Getting Started

If you want to get a real quick understanding of what Z2 is and how to give it a try start here:

In addition please follow the exploration trail at

check out the z2-Environment.

If you are looking for an in-depth documentation explaining concepts and approaches in full detail, please visit the documentation pages at

v2.0 documentation

Howtos

Howtos provide practical information on various aspects that you may run into when looking deeper.

Samples

There are various samples available that highlight specific use-cases and may serve as a solution template, when you just cannot get it to work or do not know where to start.

Addons

The z2 base distribution is really just the most basic but still practically useful set of z2 modules. Addon repositories provide additional modules that add complete feature sets. Addons are versioned along with z2 base and may be included by simply adding component repositories. See also How_to_Create_a_Complete_System.

Support & Getting help

For getting help please refer to the FAQ. Discussions about z2-environment can be find in the z2-environment forums.

Before submitting a bug report, a patch or a feature request here, please read the Submission guidelines.

drawio
Draw.io widget plugin to embed diagrams. Example usage:

{{drawio(diagram_attachment.xml[, ...options...])}}

Use http://draw.io to draw diagrams, save them locally and attach to wiki or issue pages.
On page view, the diagrams are sent to draw.io site for rendering.

options:
lightbox=false  : enable lightbox usage
resize=false    : enable zoom control toolbar
zoom=100        : initial zoom of diagram (percentage of original diagram)
fit=true        : fit page width (only if resize=false)

an API to delete attachments but need investigation).
