===== Securing a Classic WAR Application
The needed steps to secure your WAR application are:
. Declare needed security constraints in the `/WEB-INF/web.xml` file. You also need to declare login-config and all the roles inside security-role.
+
For example:
+
[source,xml]
----
customer-portal
index.html
Customers
/customers/*
user
BASIC
does-not-matter
admin
user
----
. Add the `jetty-web.xml` file with the authenticator to the `/WEB-INF/jetty-web.xml` file.
+
For example:
+
[source,xml]
----
----
. Add the `/WEB-INF/keycloak.json` file to your {{book.project.name}} configuration. The format of this configuration file is described in the <> section. It is also possible to make this file available externally as described below.
. Ensure your WAR application imports `org.keycloak.adapters.jetty` and maybe some more packages in the `META-INF/MANIFEST.MF` file, under the `Import-Package` header. Using `maven-bundle-plugin` in your project properly generates OSGI headers in manifest.
Note that "*" resolution for the package does not import the `org.keycloak.adapters.jetty` package, since it is not used by the application or the Blueprint or Spring descriptor, but is rather used in the `jetty-web.xml` file.
+
The list of the packages to import might look like this:
+
[source, subs="attributes"]
----
org.keycloak.adapters.jetty;version="{{book.project.versionMvn}}",
org.keycloak.adapters;version="{{book.project.versionMvn}}",
org.keycloak.constants;version="{{book.project.versionMvn}}",
org.keycloak.util;version="{{book.project.versionMvn}}",
org.keycloak.*;version="{{book.project.versionMvn}}",
*;resolution:=optional

====== Configuring the External Adapter
If you do not want the `keycloak.json` adapter configuration file to be bundled inside your WAR application, but instead available externally and loaded based on naming conventions, use this configuration method.
To enable the functionality, add this section to your `web.xml` file:
[source,xml]
----
keycloak.config.resolver
org.keycloak.adapters.osgi.PathBasedKeycloakConfigResolver
----
That component uses `keycloak.config` or `karaf.etc` java properties to search for a base folder to locate the configuration.
Then inside one of those folders it searches for a file called `-keycloak.json`.
So, for example, if your web application has context `my-portal`, then your adapter configuration is loaded from the `$FUSE_HOME/etc/my-portal-keycloak.json` file.
