Configuring the toolkit deployment settings

Configure your toolkit deployment settings before running the toolkit deployment script. These settings consist of important information like software installation paths and key information about your WebSphere Commerce development environment.

Procedure

  1. Copy WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/wcbd-setenv.bat.template as WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/setenv.bat.
  2. Copy WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/wcbd-deploy.private.properties.template as WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.private.properties, where target-env is an identifier for the target environment.
  3. Copy WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/wcbd-deploy.properties.template as WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.properties.
  4. Open WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/setenv.bat with a text editor and set the following:
    • WCDE_HOME to WCDE_installdir
  5. Open WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.private.properties with a text editor and configure the properties in the file by referring to the Security-sensitive toolkit deployment configuration properties topic.
  6. Open WCBD_deploy_toolkit_dir/deploy-target-env.properties with a text editor and configure the properties in the file by referring to the Toolkit deployment configuration properties topic.
    Tip: To save time when configuring a new toolkit deployment package, you can provide the fully or partially pre-configured, target-environment-specific properties files and include them in the WCBD_installdir/deploy/toolkit directory on the build system. Such assets are included in the new toolkit deployment package, reducing the amount of configuration required.
  7. Refer to the Advanced toolkit deployment features topic to learn about, and if applicable, apply features that suit your deployment needs.
