How to share an ignite instance among jetty webapps - ignite

Question

The docs state:
https://ignite.apache.org/releases/latest/javadoc/org/apache/ignite/startup/servlet/ServletStartup.html
Servlet-based startup may be used in any web container like Tomcat,
Jetty and etc. Depending on the way this startup is deployed the
Ignite instance can be accessed by either all web applications or by
only one. See web container class loading architecture:
But then points to a dead link regarding Jetty.
I'm using Jetty. How would this be done (sharing the ignite instance among all web applications)?

Answer 1

Link to Jetty classloading
Link to Ignite web configuration
The latter describes web session clustering but you don't have to enable that to use Ignite. I think these docs should cover your case.
To share Ignite instance between web apps, you will need:
Put Ignite libraries into server's main lib/ directory, and not under your web app directory
Instantiate Ignite using Jetty API, as per the documentation that you referenced
code:
Server service = new Server();
service.addListener("localhost:8090");
ServletHttpContext ctx = (ServletHttpContext)service.getContext("/");
ServletHolder servlet = ctx.addServlet("Ignite", "/IgniteStartup",
"org.apache.ignite.startup.servlet.ServletStartup");
servlet.setInitParameter("cfgFilePath", "config/default-config.xml");
servlet.setInitOrder(1);
servlet.start();
This assumes you are starting Jetty programmatically, i.e. with your own code. Your mileage may vary if you don't.
