Quarkus Wicket

Welcome to Quarkus Wicket!

This is the Quarkus extension to build Quarkus web applications using Apache Wicket.

Features

• Should be compatible with ArC CDI injection (aka CDI lite)

• Injection of your CDI services works in Components, Behaviors and sessions

• Configures Wicket using the profiles of Quarkus (e.g. dev -> development configuration, prod -> deployment configuration)

Caveats

• Your application should extend QuarkusWicketApplication to work (the codestart generates this for you)

• Your application should be a @Singleton for proper injection into the WicketFilter to work

• Apache Wicket doesn't work well (yet) with native GraalVM so this extension doesn't support native applications

• Does not support build time processing (all CDI references are resolved at runtime)

• Requires all CDI beans to be injectable (see build time processing) at runtime, this causes overhead

• No attempts have been made to integrate Hibernate/Panache/... into this project, so expect difficulties

• There are no configuration options available other than through coding them yourself in your application
