I'm trying to build a pom.xml
to handle the deployment and undeployment to a remote TomEE (PluME 7.0.3) server. However, I cannot figure out the correct value to use in the path
configuration tag. Here's a working plugin configuration for deploying my application (full-blown EAR, for educational purposes) to the remote TomEE:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomee.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomee-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.0.3</version>
<configuration>
<context>someear</context>
<tomeeClassifier>plus</tomeeClassifier>
<tomeeHost>192.168.100.100</tomeeHost>
<debugPort>8000</debugPort>
<tomeeAjpPort>8009</tomeeAjpPort>
<tomeeHttpPort>8080</tomeeHttpPort>
<tomeeShutdownPort>8005</tomeeShutdownPort>
<path>target/someear-1.0-SNAPSHOT.ear</path>
<useBinaries>true</useBinaries>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Whereas to undeploy, I would have to configure the plugin like this:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomee.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomee-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.0.3</version>
<configuration>
<context>someear</context>
<tomeeClassifier>plus</tomeeClassifier>
<tomeeHost>192.168.100.100</tomeeHost>
<debugPort>8000</debugPort>
<tomeeAjpPort>8009</tomeeAjpPort>
<tomeeHttpPort>8080</tomeeHttpPort>
<tomeeShutdownPort>8005</tomeeShutdownPort>
<path>someear-1.0-SNAPSHOT</path>
<useBinaries>true</useBinaries>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Notice the difference in the path
configuration. From the command line, this behaves similarly; when the path
tag in the pom.xml is omitted, I can deploy and undeploy like this:
mvn tomee:deploy -Dtomee-plugin.archive=target/someear-1.0-SNAPSHOT.ear
mvn tomee:undeploy -Dtomee-plugin.archive=someear-1.0-SNAPSHOT
Has anybody experienced the same behaviour, and found a way to mitigate this? I'd like to have both deploy and undeploy configured completely in the pom.xml without specifying additional parameters when calling mvn
. But, as of now, I cannot do that, since tomee:deploy
seems to expect a different path
than tomee:undeploy
.
EDIT
Ok, based on @Old School's edited answer, I can do something like this:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>deploy</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<properties>
<my-tomee-maven-plugin-path>target/someear-1.0-SNAPSHOT.ear</tomee-maven-plugin-path>
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>undeploy</id>
<properties>
<my-tomee-maven-plugin-path>someear-1.0-SNAPSHOT</tomee-maven-plugin-path>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
Then, specify path
in tomee-maven-plugin
's configuration section like this:
...
<path>${my-tomee-maven-plugin-path}</path>
...
Then, execute maven like this:
mvn tomee:deploy
mvn tomee:undeploy -Pundeploy
Which I consider more convenient than specifying some -D
parameters at execution time (YMMV).
However, the perfect solution in my opinion would be if you could configure path
in tomee-maven-plugin
's configuration such that both tomee:deploy
and tomee:undeploy
work without further ado.

I discovered another possibility without profiles which I was seemingly unable to find before (based on: http://tomee-openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/Deployment-to-TomEE-7-0-0-using-tomee-maven-plugin-error-Cannot-open-input-stream-to-server-tp4679142p4679282.html):

Usage:
mvn tomee:deploy@deploy-it
mvn tomee:undeploy@undeploy-it
I use glassfish, not tomcat, but I think the same principles apply here. In GF, deploy requires the full path and the undeploy requires only the package name. For example, glassfish goes something like:
asadmin deploy C:\Projects\Java\helloworld\helloworld.war
and
asadmin undeploy helloworld
There is no path required on undeploy because the file is on the server and once you name it, glassfish/tomcat knows where it is.
EDIT based off comments: My apologies for the glassfish stuff, I wasn't paying attention to you mentioning tomcat and I've edited a bit to reflect that somewhat.
I do understand now, I think, what you're looking for. Check out:
It's another SO answer where he does a fantastic job of explaining exactly what you're looking for, I think. I hope that works.
