9.5.3. Undeploy an Application with Maven

Prerequisites

Summary

This task shows a method for undeploying applications with Maven. The example provided uses the jboss-as-helloworld.war application found in the Enterprise Application Server Quick Starts collection. The helloworld project contains a POM file which initializes the jboss-as-maven-plugin. This plug-in provides simple operations to deploy and undeploy applications to and from the application server.

Procedure 9.12. Undeploy an application with Maven

  1. Run the Maven deploy command in a terminal session

    Open a terminal session and navigate to the directory containing the quickstart examples.

    Example 9.7. Change into the helloworld application directory

    [localhost]$ cd /path/to/EAP_Quickstarts/helloworld
  2. Run the Maven undeploy command to undeploy the application. 
    [localhost]$ mvn jboss-as:undeploy

  3. Confirm the application undeployment

    • View result in terminal window

      The undeployment can be confirmed by viewing the operation logs in the terminal window.

      Example 9.8. Maven confirmation for helloworld application
