Chapter 7. Deploying Applications
Chapter 7. Deploying Applications JBoss EAP features a range of application deployment and configuration options to cater to both administrators and developers. For administrators, the management console and the management CLI offer ideal graphical and command-line interfaces to manage application deployment in a production environment. For developers, the range of application deployment testing options include a configurable file system deployment scanner , the HTTP API , an IDE such as Red Hat CodeReady Studio, and Maven . When deploying applications, you may want to enable validation for deployment descriptors by setting the org.jboss.metadata.parser.validate system property to true . This can be done one of the following ways: While starting the server. By adding it to the server configuration with the following management CLI command. 7.1. Deploying Applications Using the Management CLI Deploying applications using the management CLI gives you the benefit of a single command-line interface with the ability to create and run deployment scripts. You can use this scripting ability to configure specific application deployment and management scenarios. You can manage the deployments for a single server when running as a standalone server, or an entire network of servers when running in a managed domain. 7.1.1. Deploy an Application to a Standalone Server Using the Management CLI Deploy an Application From the management CLI, use the deployment deploy-file command and specify the path to the application deployment. A successful deployment does not produce any output to the management CLI, but the server log displays deployment messages. Similarly, you can use the following deployment commands: Use the deployment deploy-cli-archive to deploy the content from a .cli archive file. A CLI deployment archive is a JAR file with the .cli extension. It contains application archives that should be deployed and the CLI script files, deploy.scr and undeploy.scr , containing commands and operations. One script file, deploy.scr , contains the commands and operations that deploy the application archives and set up the environment; the other script file, undeploy.scr , contains the commands to undeploy the application archives and clean up the environment. Use the deployment deploy-url to deploy the content referenced by a URL. You can also enable the disabled applications using the deployment enable command . Note When specifying the runtime-name attribute by using the --runtime-name option, you must include the .war extension in the name or the web context will not be registered by JBoss EAP. Undeploy an Application From the management CLI, use the deployment undeploy command and specify the deployment name. This will delete the deployment content from the repository. See Disable an Application for keeping the deployment content when undeploying. A successful undeployment does not produce any output to the management CLI, but the server log displays undeployment messages. Similarly, you can use the deployment undeploy-cli-archive to undeploy the content from a .cli archive file. You can also undeploy all deployments using a wildcard ( * ). Disable an Application Disable a deployed application without removing the deployment content from the repository. You can use the deployment disable-all command to disable all the deployments. Enable an Application Enable a disabled deployed application. You can use the deployment enable-all command to enable all the deployments. List Deployments From the management CLI, use the deployment info command to list deployment information. The output will show details about each deployment, such as the runtime name, status, and whether it is enabled. To display deployment information by name: You can also list all the deployments using the deployment list command. 7.1.2. Deploy an Application in a Managed Domain Using the Management CLI Deploy an Application From the management CLI, use the deployment deploy-file command and specify the path to the application deployment. You must also specify the server groups to which the application should be deployed. To deploy the application to all server groups. To deploy the application to specific server groups. A successful deployment does not produce any output to the management CLI, but the server log displays deployment messages for each affected server. Similarly, you can use the following deployment commands: Use the deployment deploy-cli-archive command to deploy the content from a .cli archive file. A CLI deployment archive is a JAR file with the .cli extension. It contains application archives that should be deployed and the CLI script files, deploy.scr and undeploy.scr , containing commands and operations. One script file, deploy.scr , contains the commands and operations that deploy the application archives and set up the environment; the other script file, undeploy.scr , contains the commands to undeploy the application archives and clean up the environment. Use the deployment deploy-url command to deploy the content referenced by a URL. You can also enable the disabled applications using the deployment enable command . Note When specifying the runtime-name attribute by using the --runtime-name option, you must include the .war extension in the name or the web context will not be registered by JBoss EAP. Undeploy an Application From the management CLI, use the deployment undeploy command and specify the deployment name. You must also specify the server groups from which the application should be undeployed. See Disable an Application for undeploying from specific server groups. Undeploy the application from all server groups with that deployment. A successful undeployment does not produce any output to the management CLI, but the server log displays undeployment messages for each affected server. Similarly, you can use the deployment undeploy-cli-archive command to undeploy the content from a .cli archive file. You can also undeploy all deployments using a wildcard ( * ). Disable an Application Disable a deployed application from specific server groups and retain its content in the repository for other server groups with that deployment. You can use the deployment disable-all command to disable all the deployments. Enable an Application Enable a disabled deployed application. You can use the deployment enable-all command to enable all the deployments. List Deployments From the management CLI, use the deployment info command to list deployment information. You can list deployment information by deployment name or by server group. To display deployment information by name: The output will list the deployment and its state in each server group. To display deployment information by server group: The output will list the deployments and their state for the specified server group. You can also list all deployments in the domain using the deployment list command. 7.2. Deploying Applications Using the Management Console Deploying applications using the management console gives you the benefit of a graphical interface that is easy to use. You can see at a glance which applications are deployed to your server or server groups, and you can enable, disable or remove applications from the content repository as required. 7.2.1. Deploy an Application to a Standalone Server Using the Management Console Deployments can be viewed and managed from the Deployments tab of the JBoss EAP management console. Deploy an Application Click the Add ( + ) button. You can choose to deploy an application by uploading a deployment , adding an unmanaged deployment , or creating an empty deployment . Deployments are enabled by default. Upload a deployment Upload an application that will be copied to the server's content repository and managed by JBoss EAP. Adding an unmanaged deployment Specify the location of a deployment. This deployment will not be copied to the server's content repository and will not be managed by JBoss EAP. Creating an empty deployment Create an empty, exploded deployment. You can add files to the deployment after it has been created. Undeploy an Application Select the deployment and choose the Undeploy option. JBoss EAP removes the deployment from the content repository. Disable an Application Select the deployment and choose the Disable option to disable the application. This undeploys the deployment, but does not remove it from the content repository. Replace an Application Select the deployment and choose the Replace option. Select the new version of the deployment, which must have the same name as the original, and click Finish . This undeploys and removes the original version of the deployment, and then deploys the new version. 7.2.2. Deploy an Application in a Managed Domain Using the Management Console From the Deployments tab of the JBoss EAP management console, deployments can be viewed and managed by: Content Repository All managed and unmanaged deployments are listed in the Content Repository section. Deployments can be added and deployed to server groups here. Server Groups Deployments that have been deployed to one or more server groups are listed in the Server Groups section. Deployments can be enabled and added directly to a server group here. Add an Application From Content Repository , click the Add button. Choose to add an application by uploading a deployment or adding an unmanaged deployment . Follow the prompts to deploy the application. Note that a deployment must be deployed to a server group before it can be enabled. Deploy an Application to a Server Group From Content Repository , select a deployment and click the Deploy button. Select one or more server groups to which this deployment should be deployed. Optionally, select the option to enable the deployment on the selected server groups. Undeploy an Application from a Server Group From Server Groups , select the appropriate server group. Select the desired deployment and click the Undeploy button. Deployments can also be undeployed from multiple server groups at once by selecting the Undeploy button for the deployment in Content Repository . Remove an Application If the deployment is still deployed to any server groups, be sure to undeploy the deployment. From Content Repository , select the deployment and click the Remove button. This removes the deployment from the content repository. Disable an Application From Server Groups , select the appropriate server group. Select the desired deployment and click the Disable button. This undeploys the deployment, but does not remove it from the content repository. Replace an Application From Content Repository , select the deployment and click the Replace button. Select the new version of the deployment, which must have the same name as the original, and click Replace . This undeploys and removes the original version of the deployment, and then deploys the new version. 7.3. Deploying Applications Using the Deployment Scanner The deployment scanner monitors the deployment directory for applications to deploy. By default, the deployment scanner scans the EAP_HOME /standalone/deployments/ directory every five seconds for changes. Marker files are used to indicate the status of a deployment and to trigger actions against deployments, such as undeploying or redeploying. While it is recommended to use the management console or management CLI for application deployment in a production environment, deploying using the deployment scanner is provided for the convenience of developers. This allows users to build and test applications in a manner suited for rapid development cycles. Additionally, the deployment scanner should not be used in conjunction with other deployment methods. The deployment scanner is only available when running JBoss EAP as a standalone server. 7.3.1. Deploy an Application to a Standalone Server Using the Deployment Scanner The deployment scanner can be configured to allow or disallow automatic deployment of XML, zipped, and exploded content. If automatic deployment is disabled, you must manually create marker files to trigger deployment actions. For more information about the available marker file types and their purposes, see the Deployment Scanner Marker Files section. By default, automatic deployment for XML and zipped content is enabled. For details on configuring automatic deployment for each content type, see Configure the Deployment Scanner . Warning Deploying using the deployment scanner is provided for the convenience of developers and is not recommended for use in a production environment. It should also not be used in conjunction with other deployment methods. Deploy an Application Copy the content to the deployment folder. If auto-deployment is enabled, this file will be picked up automatically, deployed, and a .deployed marker file will be created. If auto-deployment is not enabled, then you will need to manually add a .dodeploy marker file to trigger deployment. Undeploy an Application Trigger an undeployment by removing the .deployed marker file. If auto-deployment is enabled, you can also remove the test-application.war file, which will trigger the undeployment. Note that this does not apply for exploded deployments. Redeploy an Application Create a .dodeploy marker file to initiate redeployment. 7.3.2. Configure the Deployment Scanner The deployment scanner can be configured using the management console or the management CLI. You can configure the deployment scanner's behavior, such as the scan interval, deployment folder location, and autodeployment of certain application file types. You can also disable the deployment scanner entirely. For details on all available deployment scanner attributes, see the Deployment Scanner Attributes section. Use the below management CLI commands to configure the default deployment scanner. Disable the Deployment Scanner This disables the default deployment scanner. Change the Scan Interval This updates the scan interval time from 5000 milliseconds (five seconds) to 10000 milliseconds (ten seconds). Change the Deployment Folder This changes the location of the deployment folder from the default location of EAP_HOME /standalone/deployments to /path/to /deployments . The path value will be treated as an absolute path unless the relative-to attribute is specified, in which case it will be relative to that path. Enable the Automatic Deployment of Exploded Content This enables the automatic deployment of exploded content, which is disabled by default. Disable the Automatic Deployment of Zipped Content This disables the automatic deployment of zipped content, which is enabled by default. Disable the Automatic Deployment of XML Content This disables the automatic deployment of XML content, which is enabled by default. 7.3.3. Define a Custom Deployment Scanner A new deployment scanner can be added using the management CLI or by navigating to the Deployment Scanners subsystem from the Configuration tab in the management console. This will define a new directory to scan for deployments. The default deployment scanner monitors EAP_HOME /standalone/deployments . See Configure the Deployment Scanner for details on configuring an existing deployment scanner. The following management CLI command adds a new deployment scanner that will check EAP_HOME /standalone/new_deployment_dir every five seconds for deployments. Note The specified directory must already exist or this command will fail with an error. A new deployment scanner has been defined and the specified directory will be monitored for deployments. 7.4. Deploying Applications Using Maven Deploying applications using Apache Maven allows you to easily incorporate deployment to JBoss EAP into your existing development workflow. You can use Maven to deploy applications to JBoss EAP using the WildFly Maven Plugin , which provides simple operations to deploy and undeploy applications to the application server. 7.4.1. Deploy an Application to a Standalone Server Using Maven The following instructions show how to deploy and undeploy the JBoss EAP helloworld quickstart to a standalone server using Maven. See Using the Quickstart Examples in the JBoss EAP Getting Started Guide for more information on the JBoss EAP quickstarts. Deploy an Application Initialize the WildFly Maven Plugin in your Maven pom.xml file. This should already be configured in the JBoss EAP quickstart pom.xml files. <plugin> <groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>USD{version.wildfly.maven.plugin}</version> </plugin> From the helloworld quickstart directory, execute the following Maven command. After issuing the Maven command to deploy, the terminal window shows the following output indicating a successful deployment. The deployment can also be confirmed by viewing the server log of the active server instance. Undeploy an Application From the helloworld quickstart directory, execute the following Maven command. After issuing the Maven command to undeploy, the terminal window shows the following output indicating a successful undeployment. The undeployment can also be confirmed by viewing the server log of the active server instance. 7.4.2. Deploy an Application in a Managed Domain Using Maven The following instructions show how to deploy and undeploy the JBoss EAP helloworld quickstart in a managed domain using Maven. See Using the Quickstart Examples in the JBoss EAP Getting Started Guide for more information on the JBoss EAP quickstarts. Deploy an Application When deploying an application in a managed domain, you must specify the server groups to which the application should be deployed. This is configured in the Maven pom.xml file. The following configuration in the pom.xml initializes the WildFly Maven Plugin and specifies main-server-group as the server group to which the application should be deployed. <plugin> <groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>USD{version.wildfly.maven.plugin}</version> <configuration> <domain> <server-groups> <server-group>main-server-group</server-group> </server-groups> </domain> </configuration> </plugin> From the helloworld quickstart directory, execute the following Maven command. After issuing the Maven command to deploy, the terminal window shows the following output indicating a successful deployment. The deployment can also be confirmed by viewing the server log of the active server instance. Undeploy an Application From the helloworld quickstart directory, execute the following Maven command. After issuing the Maven command to undeploy, the terminal window shows the following output indicating a successful undeployment. The undeployment can also be confirmed by viewing the server log of the active server instance. 7.5. Deploying Applications Using the HTTP API Applications can be deployed to JBoss EAP using the HTTP API with the curl command. For more information on using the HTTP API, see the HTTP API section. 7.5.1. Deploy an Application to a Standalone Server Using the HTTP API By default, the HTTP API is accessible at http:// HOST : PORT /management , for example, http://localhost:9990/management . Deploy an Application Undeploy an Application See this Red Hat Knowledgebase article to learn more about programmatically generating the JSON requests. 7.5.2. Deploy an Application in a Managed Domain Using the HTTP API By default, the HTTP API is accessible at http:// HOST : PORT /management , for example, http://localhost:9990/management . Deploy an Application Add the deployment to the content repository. Add the deployment to the desired server group. Deploy the application to the server group. Undeploy an Application Remove the deployment from all server groups to which it is assigned. Remove the deployment from the content repository. 7.6. Customizing Deployment Behavior 7.6.1. Define a Custom Directory for Deployment Content You can define a custom location for JBoss EAP to store deployed content. Define a Custom Directory for a Standalone Server By default, deployed content for a standalone server is stored in the EAP_HOME /standalone/data/content directory. This location can be changed by passing in the -Djboss.server.deploy.dir argument when starting the server. The chosen location should be unique among JBoss EAP instances. Note The jboss.server.deploy.dir property specifies the directory to be used for storing content that has been deployed using the management console or management CLI. To define a custom deployment directory to be monitored by the deployment scanner, see Configure the Deployment Scanner . Define a Custom Directory for a Managed Domain By default, deployed content for a managed domain is stored in the EAP_HOME /domain/data/content directory. This location can be changed by passing in the -Djboss.domain.deployment.dir argument when starting the domain. The chosen location should be unique among JBoss EAP instances. 7.6.2. Control the Order of Deployments JBoss EAP offers fine-grained control over the order of deployments when the server is started. Strict order of the deployment of applications present in multiple EAR files can be specified along with persistence of the order after a restart. You can use the jboss-all.xml deployment descriptor to declare dependencies between top-level deployments. For example, if you have an app.ear that depends on framework.ear being deployed first, then you can create an app.ear/META-INF/jboss-all.xml file as shown below. <jboss xmlns="urn:jboss:1.0"> <jboss-deployment-dependencies xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-dependencies:1.0"> <dependency name="framework.ear" /> </jboss-deployment-dependencies> </jboss> Note You can use the deployment's runtime name as the dependency name in the jboss-all.xml file. This ensures that framework.ear is deployed before app.ear . Important If you create a jboss-all.xml file in app.ear and you do not deploy framework.ear , the server attempts to deploy app.ear and fails. 7.6.3. Override Deployment Content A deployment overlay can be used to overlay content into an existing deployment without physically modifying the contents of the deployment archive. It allows you to override deployment descriptors, library JAR files, classes, Jakarta Server Pages pages, and other files at runtime without rebuilding the archive. This can be useful if you need to adapt a deployment for different environments that need different configurations or settings. For example, when moving a deployment through the application lifecycle from development, to testing, to stage, and finally into production, you might want to swap deployment descriptors, modify static web resources to change the branding of the application, or even replace JAR libraries with different versions depending on the target environment. It is also a useful feature for installations that need to change a configuration but can not modify or crack an archive due to policy or security restrictions. When defining a deployment overlay, you specify the file on a file system that will replace the file in the deployment archive. You must also specify which deployments should be affected by the deployment overlay. Any affected deployments must be redeployed in order for the changes to take effect. Parameters You can use any of the following parameters to configure your deployment overlay: name :: The name of the deployment overlay. content :: A comma-separated list that maps the file on the file system to the file in the archive that it replaces. The format for each entry is ARCHIVE_PATH = FILESYSTEM_PATH . deployments :: Comma-separated list of deployments to which this overlay is linked. redeploy-affected :: Redeploys all affected deployments. For full usage details, execute deployment-overlay --help . Procedure Use the deployment-overlay add management CLI command to add a deployment overlay: Note In a managed domain, specify the applicable server groups by using --server-groups or specify all server groups with --all-server-groups . After you created a deployment overlay, you can add content to an existing overlay, link the overlay to a deployment, or remove the overlay. Optional: You can specify an overlay configuration to link to an external directory that contains static web resources, such as HTML, images, or videos, using the <overlay> element. The <overlay> element specifies static files that overlay the static files of a web application, similar to the procedure of JAR overlays. This element is located in the application file jboss-web.xml . With this element configuration, you do not need to repackage the application. The following example shows system property substitution in the <overlay> element, where {example.path.to.overlay} defines the /PATH/TO/STATIC/WEB/CONTENT location. Example: <overlay> element in a jboss-web.xml file <jboss-web xmlns="http://www.jboss.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.jboss.com/xml/ns/javaee http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/schema/jboss-web_10_0.xsd" version="10.0"> <overlay>{example.path.to.overlay}</overlay> </jboss-web> You can specify a system property in the <overlay> element if jboss-descriptor-property-replacement is set to true , which is the default value for the descriptor property. To configure jboss-descriptor-property-replacement , use the following management CLI command: This command adds the following XML content to the ee subsystem in the JBoss EAP configuration: <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:ee:4.0"> <jboss-descriptor-property-replacement>true</jboss-descriptor-property-replacement> </subsystem> Note The <overlay> element does not override deployment files that already exist in your EAP project. If multiple <overlay> elements include the same file, the precedence order is determined based on the sequence of the overlay elements in the application jboss-web.xml file. 7.6.4. Using Rollout Plans About Rollout Plans In a managed domain, operations targeted at domain or host level resources can potentially impact multiple servers. Such operations can include a roll out plan detailing the sequence in which the operation would be applied to the servers, as well as the policies for detailing whether the operation could be reverted if it fails to execute successfully on some servers. If no rollout plan is specified, the default rollout plan is used. Below is an example rollout plan involving five server groups. Operations can be applied to server groups serially, in-series , or concurrently, concurrent-groups . The syntax is described in more detail in Rollout Plan Syntax . Looking at the example above, applying the operation to the servers in the domain is done in three phases. If the policy for any server group triggers a rollback of the operation across the server group, all other server groups will be rolled back as well. Server groups group-A and group-B will have the operation applied concurrently. The operation will be applied to the servers in group-A in series, while all servers in group-B will handle the operation concurrently. If more than 20% of the servers in group-A fail to apply the operation, it will be rolled back across that group. If any servers in group-B fail to apply the operation it will be rolled back across that group. Once all servers in group-A and group-B are complete, the operation will be applied to the servers in group-C . Those servers will handle the operation concurrently. If more than one server in group-C fails to apply the operation it will be rolled back across that group. Once all servers in group-C are complete, server groups group-D and group-E will have the operation applied concurrently. The operation will be applied to the servers in group-D in series, while all servers in group-E will handle the operation concurrently. If more than 20% of the servers in group-D fail to apply the operation, it will be rolled back across that group. If any servers in group-E fail to apply the operation it will be rolled back across that group. Rollout Plan Syntax You can specify a rollout plan in either of the following ways. By defining the rollout plan in the deploy command operation headers. See Deploy Using a Rollout Plan for details. By storing the rollout plan using the rollout-plan command and then referencing the plan name in the deploy command operation headers. See Deploy Using a Stored Rollout Plan for details. Although each method has a different initial command, both methods use the rollout operation header to define the rollout plan. This uses the following syntax. PLAN_NAME is the name for the rollout plan that was stored using the rollout-plan command. SERVER_GROUP_LIST is the list of server groups. Use a comma ( , ) to separate multiple server groups to indicate that operations should be performed on each server group sequentially. Use a caret ( ^ ) separator to indicate that operations should be performed on each server group concurrently. For each server group, set any of the following policies in parentheses. Use a comma to separate multiple policies. rolling-to-servers : A boolean that, if set to true , applies the operation to each server in the group in series. If the value is false or not specified, the operation will be applied to the servers in the group concurrently. max-failed-servers : An integer which takes the maximum number of servers in the group that can fail to apply the operation before it should be reverted on all servers in the group. The default value if not specified is 0 , meaning that a failure on any server will trigger rollback across the group. max-failure-percentage : An integer between 0 and 100 that represents the maximum percentage of the total number of servers in the group that can fail to apply the operation before it should be reverted on all servers in the group. The default value if not specified is 0 , meaning that a failure on any server will trigger rollback across the group. Note If both max-failed-servers and max-failure-percentage are set to non-zero values, max-failure-percentage takes precedence. rollback-across-groups : A boolean that indicates whether the need to rollback the operation on all the servers in one server group triggers a rollback across all the server groups. This defaults to false . Deploy Using a Rollout Plan You can provide the full details of a rollout plan directly to the deploy command by passing the rollout settings into the headers argument. See the Rollout Plan Syntax for more information on the format. The following management CLI command deploys an application to the main-server-group server group using a deployment plan that specifies rolling-to-servers=true for serial deployment. Deploy Using a Stored Rollout Plan Since rollout plans can be complex, you have the option to store the details of a rollout plan. This allows you to reference the rollout plan name when you want to use it instead of requiring the full details of the rollout plan each time. Use the rollout-plan management CLI command to store a rollout plan. See the Rollout Plan Syntax for more information on the format. This creates the following deployment plan. Specify the stored rollout plan name when deploying the application. The following management CLI command deploys an application to all server groups using the my-rollout-plan stored rollout plan. Remove a Stored Rollout Plan You can remove a stored rollout plan using the rollout-plan management CLI command by specifying the name of the rollout plan to remove. Default Rollout Plan All operations that impact multiple servers will be executed with a rollout plan. If no rollout plan is specified in the operation request, a default rollout plan will be generated. The plan will have the following characteristics. There will only be a single high-level phase. All server groups affected by the operation will have the operation applied concurrently. Within each server group, the operation will be applied to all servers concurrently. Failure on any server in a server group will cause rollback across the group. Failure of any server group will result in rollback of all other server groups. 7.7. Managing Exploded Deployments Prior to JBoss EAP 7.1, you could only manage exploded deployments by manipulating files on the file system. Starting with JBoss EAP 7.1, you can manage exploded deployments using the management interfaces. This allows you to change the contents of an exploded application without deploying a new version of the application. Note Updates to static files in a deployment, such as JavaScript and CSS files, take effect immediately. Changes to other files, such as Java classes, might require an application redeployment for the changes to take effect. You can either start with an empty deployment or explode an existing archive deployment and then add or remove content . See Viewing Deployment Content to browse the files in a deployment or read the contents of the files. Create an Empty Exploded Deployment You can create an empty exploded deployment to which you can later add content as necessary. Use the following management CLI command to create an empty exploded deployment. The empty=true option is required to confirm that you intended to create an empty deployment. Explode an Existing Archive Deployment You can explode an existing archive deployment to be able to update its contents. Note that a deployment must be disabled before it can be exploded. Use the following management CLI command to explode a deployment. You can now add or remove content from this deployment. Note You can also explode an existing archive deployment from the management console. From the Deployments tab, select the deployment and select the Explode drop down option. Add Content to an Exploded Deployment To add content to a deployment, use the add-content management CLI operation. Provide the path to the location in the deployment where the content should be added, and provide the content to be uploaded. The content to upload can be provided as a local file stream, URL, hash of content that already exists in the JBoss EAP content repository, or a byte array of the content. The following management CLI command uses the input-stream-index option to upload the contents of a local file to the deployment. Note When adding content to a deployment using the add-content operation, content in the deployment is overwritten by default. You can change this behavior by setting the overwrite option to false . Remove Content from an Exploded Deployment To remove content from a deployment, use the remove-content management CLI operation and provide the path of the content in the deployment to remove. 7.8. Viewing Deployment Content You can browse information about files in a managed deployment and read the contents of the files using the JBoss EAP management interfaces. 7.8.1. Browse Files in a Deployment Use the browse-content operation to view the files and directories in a managed deployment. Provide no arguments to return the entire deployment structure or use the path argument to provide the path to a specific directory. Note You can also browse contents of a deployment from the management console by navigating to the Deployments tab, selecting the deployment, and selecting View from the drop down. This displays the files and directories in the META-INF/ directory of the helloworld.war deployment. You can also specify the following arguments to the browse-content operation. archive Whether to only return archive files. depth Specify the depth of files to return. 7.8.2. Read Deployment Content You can read the contents of a file in a managed deployment using the read-content operation. Provide no arguments to return the entire deployment or use the path argument to provide the path to a specific file. For example: This returns a file stream, which can be displayed in the management CLI or saved to the file system . 7.8.2.1. Display the Contents of a File Use the attachment display command to read the contents of the MANIFEST.MF file. This displays the contents of the MANIFEST.MF file from the helloworld.war deployment to the management CLI. 7.8.2.2. Save the Contents of a File Use the attachment save command to save the contents of the MANIFEST.MF file to the file system. This saves the MANIFEST.MF file from the helloworld.war deployment to the file system at path/to /MANIFEST.MF . If you do not specify a file path using the --file argument, the file will be named using its unique attachment ID and saved in the working directory of the management CLI, which by default is EAP_HOME /bin/ .
