By using the Rational® Asset Manager source
configuration type and the DevOps library, you can store builds of
a particular application in Rational Asset Manager and
then import them automatically into IBM® UrbanCode Deploy for
deployment.
You can use the
Rational Asset Manager command-line
interface to store build output and related information in
Rational Asset Manager.
To learn more about the
Rational Asset Manager command-line
interface, see
Rational Asset Manager command-line
interface. For example, you could use the following commands
to publish build output:
- config: Sets up the configuration file, which
stores information required to communicate with the library server.
- publish: Uploads the packages that makeup a
component (application) to the library server.
- set: Sets the application to a particular state
in the DevOps lifecycle, such as Under Development,
and adds relationships to other assets such as Selenium tests and IBM Security AppScan® test
templates.
- When the build runs, build output is published to Rational Asset Manager as
described previously.
- Use Rational Asset Manager as
a source configuration type for a corresponding component in IBM UrbanCode Deploy.
To learn more about using Rational Asset Manager as
a source configuration type, see Creating components from Rational Asset Manager. When you configure the component,
select Import Versions Automatically so that
new versions of the component are automatically imported from Rational Asset Manager to IBM UrbanCode Deploy.
- Test your configuration by running multiple builds. Look at the
DevOps view in Rational Asset Manager and
the component versions in IBM UrbanCode Deploy to
ensure that the builds are published and imported as expected.
