Description
The aws agent module installs, configures, and manages the java service across a range of operating systems and distributions.
Setup
Beginning with java
include '::java'
is enough to get you up and running.

class, so for any function of the module, set the options you want. See the common usages below for examples.

Reference
Classes
Public classes
- java: Main class, includes all other classes.
Private classes
- java::install: Handles the packages.
- java::config: Handles the config.
Limitations
This module cannot guarantee installation of Java versions that are not available on platform repositories.
This module only manages a singular installation of Java, meaning it is not possible to manage e.g. OpenJDK 7 and Oracle Java 8 in parallel on the same system.
Oracle Java packages are not included in Debian 7 and Ubuntu 12.04/14.04 repositories. To install Java on those systems, you'll need to package Oracle JDK/JRE, and then the module can install the package. For more information on how to package Oracle JDK/JRE, see the Debian wiki.
This module is officially supported for the following Java versions and platforms:
OpenJDK is supported on:
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5, 6, 7
- CentOS 5, 6, 7
- Debian 6, 7
- Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04, 14.04
Sun Java is supported on:
- Debian 6
Oracle Java is supported on:
