Automated remote deployment of Webcenter ear to our development enviroment



All the usual undeploy / stop start code worked remotely but unfortunately the deploy was not going as planned - I wanted to set the MDS info on deployment so it was time for a new plan.

So this time on our build server would call WLST to deploy our web center app on the development weblogic enviroment.

Wlst commands I used:

Connect
  connect('weblogic','bobsentme', ''t3://remote.wl:7001')

Stop
  shutdown('ManagedServer1', force='true')

Start
  start(start('WC_Cluster', 'Cluster', 't3://remote.wl:7001'));

Deploy
archive = getMDSArchiveConfig(fromLocation='/tmp/pathto.ear')

archive.setAppMetadataRepository(repository='mds-CustomDS', partition='dev_partition', type='DB', jndi='jdbc/mds/CustomDS')");


archive.save()

deploy(appName='OurAppName', path='/tmp/pathto.ear', targets='WC_Cluster', stageMode='stage',   upload='true')

Undeploy
  undeploy('OurAppName')

Disconnect
  disconnect('true')


Scripts: to get the classpath and environment  variables correct I run the wlst.sh command and echo'ed the classpath and JAVA_OPTS and pulled them into my file not elegant but it did work.


Things still to do:

  • Use a secure connection t3s
  • Move from script to use wlst directly
  • Call setWLenv or something to setup the classpath and java opts for me
Something like:
/opt/Oracle/Middleware/wlserver_10.3/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh
/opt/Oracle/Middleware/oracle_common/common/bin/setHomeDirs.sh
/opt/Oracle/Middleware/oracle_common/common/bin/setWlstEnv.sh

ADF: LOV Description instead of code

I keep on forgetting how to do this so this is a note to self in terms I understand (ie pictures): Add the related entiy object to yours (in the example we are adding RegionEO(list of values) to CountryEO) Now add the RegionName field from the EO and a transient attribute (I named mine RegionNameLOV) Make the transient attribute updateable and base it on the expression RegionName (the description you wish to display) Add a list of values to RegionNameLOV and map BOTH key to parent fk (region id here) AND RegionName to your transient coulmn (RegionNameLOV).  Map the transient as an Input text with List of Values. Then just drag the lov item onto the page (RegionNameLOV)
