Automating application deployment on Weblogic Server.

In this article we will demonstrate three ways of deployment and undeployment on Weblogic Server

1. Using WLST
2. Using JMX
3. Using build script.
Application Deployment using WLST

connect(‘weblogic’,'weblogic’,'t3://localhost:7001′)
edit()
startEdit()
deploy(‘CookieApp’,'D:/Replications/CookieApp’,targets=’AdminServer’)
save()
activate()
exit()

Application Undeployment using WLST

connect(‘weblogic’,'weblogic’,'t3://localhost:7001′)
edit()
startEdit()
undeploy(‘CookieApp’)
save()
activate()
exit()

Application Deployment using JMX

import java.io.*;
import weblogic.deploy.api.tools.*;
import weblogic.deploy.api.spi .*;
import weblogic.deploy.api.spi.DeploymentOptions;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.TargetModuleID;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.status.ProgressObject;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.status.DeploymentStatus;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.shared.ModuleType;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.Target;
public class DeployUsingJMX
{
public static void main(String ar[]) throws Exception
{
String aLocation=”D:/Replications/CookieApp”;
String aName=”CookieApp”;
WebLogicDeploymentManager deployManager=SessionHelper.getRemoteDeploymentManager( "t3″,”localhost”,”7001″,”weblogic”,”weblogic”);
System.out.println("\n\t WebLogicDeploymentManager: "+deployManager);
DeploymentOptions options = new DeploymentOptions();
System.out.println("\n\t DeploymentOptions: "+options);
options.setName(aName);
Target targets[]=deployManager.getTargets();
int i=0;
for (i=0;i
{
System.out.println("\n\t "+targets[i]);
}
Target deployTargets[]=new Target[1];
deployTargets[0]=targets[0];
System.out.println("For test purpose we are deploying on Admin Server”+targets[0]);
ProgressObject processStatus=deployManager.distribute(deployTargets, new File(aLocation), null,options);
DeploymentStatus deploymentStatus=processStatus.getDeploymentStatus() ;
System.out.println("deploymentStatus.getMessage(): "+deploymentStatus.getMessage() );
TargetModuleID[] targetModuleIDs=deployManager.getAvailableModules(ModuleType.WAR, deployTargets);
if(targetModuleIDs != null)
{
System.out.println("\n\t targetModuleIDs [] = "+targetModuleIDs);
for (int j=0;j
{
System.out.println("\n\t "+targetModuleIDs[j]);
deployManager.start(targetModuleIDs);
}
}
}
}

Application Un-Deployment using JMX

import java.io.*;
import weblogic.deploy.api.tools.*;
import weblogic.deploy.api.spi .*;
import weblogic.deploy.api.spi.DeploymentOptions;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.TargetModuleID;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.status.ProgressObject;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.status.DeploymentStatus;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.shared.ModuleType;
import javax.enterprise.deploy.spi.Target;
public class UndeployUsingJMX
{
public static void main(String ar[]) throws Exception
{
WebLogicDeploymentManager deployManager=SessionHelper.getRemoteDeploymentManager("t3″,”localhost”,”7001″,”weblogic”,”weblogic”);
System.out.println("\n\t WebLogicDeploymentManager: "+deployManager);
DeploymentOptions options = new DeploymentOptions();
System.out.println("\n\t DeploymentOptions: "+options);
TargetModuleID[] targetModuleIDs=deployManager.getAvailableModules(ModuleType.WAR, deployManager.getTargets());
if(targetModuleIDs != null)
{
System.out.println("targetModuleIDs length: "+targetModuleIDs.length);
for(int i=0;i
{
System.out.println("\n undeploying targetModuleIDs["+i+"]: "+targetModuleIDs[i]);
ProgressObject processStatus=deployManager.undeploy(new TargetModuleID[]{targetModuleIDs[i]});
DeploymentStatus deploymentStatus=processStatus.getDeploymentStatus() ;
System.out.println("deploymentStatus.getMessage(): "+deploymentStatus.getMessage() );
}
}
}
}
