Oracle OAC projects can either source catalog objects from a source code repository or Development OAC instances. In your OAC project used to build and deploy WebCatalog objects, you will either have the option to Populate from Git (or other SCM type) or Populate from OAC Web Catalog on the files tab based on your configuration. Similar to other technologies, FlexDeploy can sync files from a development server to a source code repository. This helps implement DevOps best practices to source control developer code.

...

Here is the source code for the build workflow. You will need to update the steps in the workflow according to your Git configuration (e.g. Git Instance, sparse checkout folder, etc.). Also, keep in mind that we are running this build against the master branch (stream), if you want to commit on a different branch then create the stream on the project as appropriate.

Tip

We are referencing Git in the example above, but plugins exist for many other popular source control management systems as well and a similar workflow can be created to accomplish the same task.

downloadWebCatalog (OAC)

This operation will also export/download objects from the OAC WebCatolog.  The difference is that this operation does not require a package-based deployment project and can be called from within a utility workflow.

Tip

We are referencing Git in the example above, but plugins exist for many other popular source control management systems as well, and a similar workflow can be created to accomplish the same task.

Tip

For Git, if you want the files placed in a sub-directory rather than the root of the repository, be sure to set the following on your workflow:

  • Clone step - Sparse Checkout Folder

  • downloadWebCatalog (OAC) step - Download Folder (value should be same as Sparse Checkout Folder)

...

Using the exportWebCatalog (OAC) and downloadWebCatalog (OAC) plugin operations enables syncing the OAC WebCatalog objects from a Development development instance to a source code repository.  You can create your build/deploy project to source from the source code repository instead of an OAC instance.  This allows control over when objects are available/eligible for build and deployment.
