| The sample application in the Zip file demonstrates all of the features of Snaps. You will cover this application in | |
| detail later, but for now install it to verify that you have a working Snaps install. Start the server up and check | |
| the output it produces contains the following: | |
| </p><pre class="screen"><DE0004I> Starting plan 'org.eclipse.virgo.snaps' version '3.0.0'. | |
| <DE0004I> Starting bundle 'org.eclipse.virgo.snaps.api' version '3.6.0.M05'. | |
| <DE0005I> Started bundle 'org.eclipse.virgo.snaps.api' version '3.6.0.M05'. | |
| <DE0004I> Starting bundle 'org.eclipse.virgo.snaps.core' version '3.6.0.M05'. | |
| <DE0005I> Started bundle 'org.eclipse.virgo.snaps.core' version '3.6.0.M05'. | |
| <DE0005I> Started plan 'org.eclipse.virgo.snaps' version '3.0.0'.</pre><p> | |
| Open up the Virgo Admin Console by navigating to <code class="literal">http://localhost:8080/admin</code> and then go | |
| to the artifacts tab to deploy some new bundles. The first bundle to deploy is located at | |
| <code class="literal">/sample/org.eclipse.virgo.snaps.sample.animal-3.6.0.M05.jar</code>, select it in the browser and | |
| upload. In the terminal window you started the Virgo Tomcat Server in you should see the usual messages about the | |
| bundle starting and this message: | |
| </p><pre class="screen"><SN0000I> Host created for path '/animal-menu-bar'</pre><p> | |
| This shows that the host has been registered and is ready for Snaps to attach to it. To view the application take | |
| your browser to <code class="literal">http://localhost:8080/animal-menu-bar/</code>. You should be presented with a green looking | |
| page that has a menu bar with two links on it. One will take you to the page you are currently on while the other goes | |
| back to the admin page. | |
| </p><p> | |
| This is all very nice, but it's time to deploy another snap that will dynamicaly add some extra content to the app. The next bundle | |
| to deploy is located at <code class="literal">/sample/org.eclipse.virgo.snaps.sample.dog-3.6.0.M05.jar</code>. Deploy it the same way | |
| as the last one using the admin console and check the messages to verify it has been bound to the host: | |
| </p><pre class="screen"><SN0010I> Snap bound to path '/animal-menu-bar/dog' </pre><p> | |
| In your browser, go back to the application and refresh the page and a new menu item should now be present. If you click it a new | |
| page will load with content from the newly installed snap. In this case a picture of a dog. | |
| </p><p> | |

| You have now verified that your install is working and can continue on to learn how Snaps works and how you can use it to break up | |
| your web applications. | |
