Configure the toolkit deployment settings
Configure the toolkit deployment settings before running the toolkit deployment script. These settings consist of important information like software installation paths and key information about the WebSphere Commerce development environment.
Procedure
- Copy WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/wcbd-setenv.bat.template as WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/setenv.bat.
- Copy WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/wcbd-deploy.private.properties.template as WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.private.properties, where target-env is an identifier for the target environment.
- Copy WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/wcbd-deploy.properties.template as WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.properties.
- Open WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/setenv.bat with a text editor and set the following:
- WCDE_HOME to WCDE_INSTALL
- Open WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.private.properties with a text editor and configure the file according to the comments in the file. Properties in this file will be encoded when the deployment process is executed.
- Open WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.properties with a text editor and configure the file according to the comments in the file. Although the file is lengthy, it is important that you read all the descriptions and set the properties accordingly.
For convenience, the following is the minimal list of properties that must be set:
- connector.module.list
- ejb.module.list
- java.module.list
- web.module.list
- db.name
- db.schema.name
- jdbc.url
- jdbc.driver
- jdbc.driver.path
- datasource.jndi.name
- idresgen.customizer
- massload.customizer
Tip: To save time when configuring a new toolkit deployment package, one can provide the, fully or partially pre-configured, target-environment-specific properties files and include them in the WCBD_INSTALL/deploy/toolkit directory on the build system. Such assets are included in the new toolkit deployment package, reducing the amount of configuration required.
