The Microservice API consists of a combination of the Juneau Core, Server, and Client APIs and an embedded Eclipse Jetty Servlet Container.
It includes all libraries needed to execute in a Java 1.7+ environment.

Features include:

• An out-of-the-box zipped Eclipse project to get started quickly.
• Packaged as a simple executable jar and configuration file.
• All the power of the Juneau ecosystem for defining REST servlets and clients with the ability to serialize and parse POJOs as HTML, JSON, XML, RDF, URL-Encoding, and others.
• An extensible API that allows you to hook into various lifecycle events.
• Simple-to-use APIs for accessing manifest file entries, command-line arguments, and external configuration file properties.
• Predefined REST resources for configuring microservice and accessing log files.

The juneau-microservice-server library consists of the following classes:

• {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice} - Defines basic lifecycle methods for microservices in general.
  • {@link oaj.microservice.RestMicroservice} - Defines additional lifecycle methods for REST microservices.
    Starts up an externally-configured Jetty server, registers servlets, and sets up other features such as logging.
