How to Use ant to Export a Composite into a SAR File

The following provides an example of exporting a composite into a SAR file.

ant -f ant-sca-deploy.xml exportComposite -DserverURL=server.url
 -DupdateType=update.type -DsarFile=sar.file
 -DcompositeName=composite.name -Drevision=revision -Duser=user

Note:

After specifying the user name, enter the password when prompted.

Table 48-16 describes the syntax.

Argument Definition

serverURL

The URL of the server that hosts the SOA Infrastructure application (for example, http://myhost:8001).

updateType

The type of postdeployment changes to be included:

  • none: No postdeployment changes are included.

  • all: All postdeployment changes are included.

  • property: Property changes are included (binding component properties, composite properties such as audit level settings and payload validation status, and policy attachments).

  • runtime: Postdeployment runtime changes are included (rules dictionary and domain value maps (DVMs)).

sarFile

The absolute path of the SAR file to be generated.

compositeName

The name of the composite to be exported.

revision

The revision of the composite to be exported.

user

Optional. The user name for accessing the server when basic configuration is configured.

password

Optional. The password for accessing the server when basic configuration is configured.

The following example shows how to export a composite without including any postdeployment changes:

ant -f ant-sca-deploy.xml exportComposite -DserverURL=http://myhost:8001
 -DupdateType=none
 -DsarFile=/tmp/sca_HelloWorld_rev1.0.jar -DcompositeName=HelloWorld
 -Drevision=1.0

The following example shows how to export a composite with all postdeployment changes:

ant -f ant-sca-deploy.xml exportComposite -DserverURL=http://myhost:8001
 -DupdateType=all
 -DsarFile=/tmp/sca_HelloWorld_rev1.0-all.jar -DcompositeName=HelloWorld
 -Drevision=1.0

The following example shows how to export a composite with property postdeployment updates:

ant -f ant-sca-deploy.xml exportComposite -DserverURL=http://myhost:8001
 -DupdateType=property
 -DsarFile=/tmp/sca_HelloWorld_rev1.0-prop.jar -DcompositeName=HelloWorld
 -Drevision=1.0

The following example shows how to export a composite with runtime/metadata postdeployment updates:

ant -f ant-sca-deploy.xml exportComposite -DserverURL=http://myhost:8001
 -DupdateType=runtime
 -DsarFile=/tmp/sca_HelloWorld_rev1.0-runtime.jar
 -DcompositeName=HelloWorld -Drevision=1.0
