Ant tasks for automation of webMethods Integration Server

Prerequisites

• Install Apache Ant version 1.7 or higher
• Configure the following environment variables
  • ANT_HOME pointing to your Ant installation location
  • WEBMETHODS_HOME pointing to the location directory of the webMethods suite (not Integration Server)
  • JAVA_HOME pointing to a JDK. The easiest way will be to leverage the value from WEBMETHODS_HOME.
    • Linux/UNIX/macOS: JAVA_HOME=$WEBMETHODS_HOME/jvm/jvm (enclose in double-quotes, if the path contains spaces)
    • Windows: JAVA_HOME=%WEBMETHODS_HOME%\jvm\jvm
• Ensure that $ANT_HOME/bin and $JAVA_HOME/bin are part of the search path (PATH variable)

Installation

• Build jar file by simply calling Ant with the default target: ant
• The jar file can be found in ./build under the name wm-is-ant-tasks_<VERSION>.jar

Usage

• Include jar file in your Ant script as shown on samples.xml.
• The connection parameters, since they are ordinary Ant properties (-Dproperty.name="Property value"), can also be provided on the command line.

Example

To reload an Integration Server package:

ant -f samples.xml -DwebMethods.package.name=Default reload-package

There are many more examples in the samples.xml file.
