Maven learns---Deploy MAVEN-based war files to Tomcat

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use the Maven Tomcat plugin to package and deploy a war file to Tomcat (Tomcat 6 and 7.

To use the tool:

1. Maven 3
2. Tomcat 6.0.37
3. Tomcat 7.0.53

Tomcat 7
Publish URL = Http://localhost:8080/manager/text
Command = MVN Tomcat7:deploy

Tomcat 6
Publish URL = http://localhost:8080/manager/
Command = MVN Tomcat6:deploy

1. Tomcat 7 Example

This example shows how to package and deploy the war file in Tomcat7.

1.1 TOMCAT Certification
Add users who have the role manager GUI and administrative scripts.

%tomcat7_path%/conf/tomcat-users.xml

<?xml version= ' 1.0 ' encoding= ' utf-8 '? ><tomcat-users><role rolename= "Manager-gui"/><role Rolename= "Manager-script"/><user username= "admin" password= "password" roles= "Manager-gui,manager-script"/ ></tomcat-users>

1.2 Maven Certification
The Tomcat user who added the Maven settings file above is followed by Maven using this user to log on to the Tomcat server.

%maven_path%/conf/settings.xml

<?xml version= "1.0" encoding= "UTF-8"? ><settings ...><servers>   <server><id> tomcatserver</id><username>admin</username><password>password</password></ Server></servers></settings>

1.3 Tomcat7 Maven Plugin
Declare a maven tomcat plugin.

Pom.xml

<plugin><groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId><artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin< /artifactid><version>2.2</version><configuration><url>http://localhost:8080/manager /text</url><server>tomcatserver</server><path>/yiibaiwebapp</path></ Configuration></plugin>

How does that work?
During the deployment process, it tells Maven to deploy the WAR file Tomcat server, "Http://localhost:8080/manager/text", on the Path "/yiibaiwebapp", using "Tomcatserver" ( settings.xml) user name and password to authenticate.

1.4 Publishing to Tomcat
The following command is used to manipulate the Tomcat war file.

MVN tomcat7:deploy mvn tomcat7:undeploy mvn tomcat7:redeploy

Example

> MVN tomcat7:deploy ... [INFO] Deploying War to http://localhost:8080/yiibaiWebAppUploading:http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?path=% 2fyiibaiwebapp&update=trueuploaded:http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?path=%2fyiibaiwebapp& Update=true (13925 KB at 35250.9 kb/sec) [INFO] tomcatmanager status code:200, Reasonphrase:ok[info] ok-deployed applicat Ion at Context Path/yiibaiwebapp[info]------------------------------------------------------------------------[ Info] BUILD Success[info]------------------------------------------------------------------------[INFO] Total time : 8.507 S[info] finished at:2015-08-05t11:35:25+08:00[info] Final Memory:28m/308m[info]----------------------------- -------------------------------------------

2. Tomcat 6 Example

This example shows how to package and deploy the war file in Tomcat6. These steps are the same as TOMCAT7, except that the deployment URL and command name are different.

2.1 TOMCAT Certification

%tomcat6_path%/conf/tomcat-users.xml

<?xml version= ' 1.0 ' encoding= ' utf-8 '? ><tomcat-users><role rolename= "Manager-gui"/><role Rolename= "Manager-script"/><user username= "admin" password= "password" roles= "Manager-gui,manager-script"/ ></tomcat-users>

2.2 Maven Certification

%maven_path%/conf/settings.xml

<?xml version= "1.0" encoding= "UTF-8"? ><settings ...><servers>   <server><id> tomcatserver</id><username>admin</username><password>password</password></ Server></servers></settings>

2.3 Tomcat6 Maven Plugin

Pom.xml

<plugin><groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId><artifactId>tomcat6-maven-plugin< /artifactid><version>2.2</version><configuration><url>http://localhost:8080/manager </url><server>tomcatserver</server><path>/yiibaiwebapp</path></configuration ></plugin>

2.4 Publishing to Tomcat

MVN tomcat6:deploy mvn tomcat6:undeploy mvn tomcat6:redeploy

Example

> MVN tomcat6:deploy ... [INFO] Deploying War to http://localhost:8080/yiibaiWebAppUploading:http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy?path=% 2fyiibaiwebappuploaded:http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy?path=%2fyiibaiwebapp (13925 KB at 32995.5 KB/sec) [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------[INFO] BUILD Success[info]-------------- ----------------------------------------------------------[INFO] Total time:22.652 s[info] finished at: 2014-08-05t12:18:54+08:00[info] Final Memory:30m/308m[info]----------------------------------------------------- -------------------
