Deploying liferay 7(Gradle) module to tomcat
Their are 2 option available to deploy liferay module.
Option 1:Configure gradle.properties file available in liferay workspace.
We need to set 2 properties in gradle.properties file
- liferay.workspace.home.dir
- liferay.workspace.modules.default.repository.enabled
Set liferay.workspace.home.dir to your tomcat directory
- Example
- liferay.workspace.home.dir=D:\\LiferayDXP\\liferay-dxp-digital-enterprise-tomcat-7.0-ga1-20160617092557801\\liferay-dxp-digital-enterprise-7.0-ga1
Set liferay.workspace.modules.default.repository.enabled=true
- Now Open Eclipse IDE go to Windows--show view--click on Gradle Task.
- Gradle Task will list all your module.Select the module you want to build and deploy.
- Click build this will build jar of the selected module in libs folder located in , LiferayWorkspace--modules--(Selected Module)--build--libs in your local directory
- Click on deploy from gradle task this will place generated jar in deploy folder of tomcat (if you have configure above mention properties)
Option 2
- If you dont want to set this path you can still build jar from gradle task,but you have to manually place generated jar in tomcat deploy directory.
