This quick start is built by using the openshift-tomcat-quickstart and adds the Jersey framework support to it. You can immediately start developing REST-ful webservices using Jersey annotations and deploy it into this Tomcat on OpenShift PaaS Cloud.
Create an account at http://openshift.redhat.com/ or on any OpenShift Origin based PaaS Cloud
Create a DIY application:
rhc app-create -t diy-0.1 -a tomcatj
Get Tomcat running:
cd tomcatj
git remote add upstream -m master git://github.com/eyaqub/os-tomcat-jersey-quickstart.git
git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master
Then push the repo upstream to OpenShift:
git push
That's it, you can now checkout your application at:
http://tomcatj-$yourlogin.rhcloud.com
