10.6.2. Deploy an Application with Maven
Prerequisites
Summary
This task shows a method for deploying applications with Maven. The example provided uses the jboss-helloworld.war
application found in the JBoss EAP 6 Quickstarts 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 10.13. Deploy an application with Maven
- Open a terminal session and navigate to the directory containing the quickstart examples.
Example 10.9. Change into the helloworld application directory
[localhost]$ cd /QUICKSTART_HOME/helloworld
- Run the Maven deploy command to deploy the application. If the application is already running, it will be redeployed.
[localhost]$ mvn package jboss-as:deploy
- View the results.
- The deployment can be confirmed by viewing the operation logs in the terminal window.
Example 10.10. Maven confirmation for helloworld application
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD SUCCESS [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 32.629s [INFO] Finished at: Fri Mar 14 09:09:50 EDT 2014 [INFO] Final Memory: 23M/204M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The deployment can also be confirmed in the status stream of the active application server instance.
Example 10.11. Application server confirmation for helloworld application
