Preface

This document describes the functionality provided by the xlr-xldeploy-plugin.

See the XL Release Documentation for background information on XL Release and release concepts.

Overview

The xlr-xldeploy-plugin is a XL Release plugin that allows to start a control task, start a deployment, migrate a deployment package to another server or get the latest version of an application on XL Deploy.

Installation

Place the latest released version under the plugins dir for XL Release 7.x or under the plugins/__local__ for XL Release 8+. If needed append the following to the script.policy under conf:

permission java.io.FilePermission "plugins/*", "read";
permission java.io.FilePermission "conf/logback.xml", "read";
  • This plugin (2.3.x+) requires XLR 5.x+
  • When using XL Release 7.x:
    • v2.9.1 is compatible with XLR 7.x. Use this version if you don't want to go experimental.
    • v3.x will only work with XLR 7.x+ and has breaking changes. This means shared configurations and tasks will need to be reconfigured. When an upgrader has been written this will also be mentioned here.
    • v3.x is dependent upon the out-of-box xlr-xld-plugin-7.x plugin bundled with the v7.x server. v2.9.1 and lower are independent.
    • If you're using a v7.x of the plugin, these are deprecated and should be replaced with a v3.x version.
