Objective
You have a given WebLogic Resource properties file stored in a Git repository. This properties file will define some datasources we want to deploy to a WebLogic server. The WebLogic servers we will be using in this tutorial are running Oracle SOA Suite, but this tutorial can be used for all WebLogic servers, regardless of installed technology. The goal of the tutorial is to automate the deployment of the configuration across multiple environments. This automation will include:
- Cloning the properties from a Git repository
- Deploying the configuration to multiple environments
- Utilizing property replacement to adjust environment specific passwords as deployments progress through the environments
For more information and examples of the properties file formats available, see the createOrUpdateWeblogicConfig plugin guide.
We will walk through each of the FlexDeploy features that will be created/configured to accomplish this goal and have the composite deployed in a very short amount of time.
The tutorial does not cover every feature or configuration option available in FlexDeploy.
