Deployment
This article describes general app deployment with App Studio.
Fusion Webapps service
Deploy App Studio gives you an embedded instance of App Studio in each of your Fusion instances.Deploy App Studio
Deploy App Studio
This article describes how to deploy App Studio in Fusion 5 or App Studio in Fusion 4.
Starting in Fusion 5.11.0, Fusion has deprecated the Webapps service. As of Fusion 5.11.0, you should instead deploy App Studio manually.
In Fusion 4.x, the default
FUSION_PORT value is 8764. In Fusion 5.x, the default value is 6764.-
Create UI (create a new App Studio project)
-
Execute the
command ./app-studio packageto generate theapp-studio-enterprise.warfile. The file is created in the following location:/<$Application>/dist/app-studio-enterprise.war -
Deploy WAR (upload to webapps service)
-
Go to
https://FUSION_HOST:FUSION_PORT/webapps/UI_CONTEXT/.
Standalone deployments
- Deploy an App in a Servlet Container
Package your search app in a Java WAR file, which can be deployed in a servlet container such as Tomcat or Jetty. This is the most common way to deploy a search app. - Deploy a Standalone App
Package your search app in a Java JAR file that also contains an embedded Tomcat web server. The app is ready to deploy in a production environment. It is not necessary to build a WAR file and deploy that in a servlet container or application server. - Deploy a Standalone App
Package your search app in a Java JAR file. You can run the app with the Java launcher.
Deploy an App in a Servlet Container
Deploy an App in a Servlet Container
The most common way to deploy an App Studio search application is to package it as a standard Java
.war file, which can be deployed in any standard servlet container such as Tomcat or Jetty.Create a WAR file
Create a WAR file suitable for deployment in a servlet container. Do either of the following:- Use a script - Run the script
app-studio(on Unix or MacOS) orapp-studio.bat(on Windows) with the parameterpackageto create the WAR file. - Download the WAR file from Fusion - If you created the search interface in Fusion, you can download the WAR file from Fusion.
Deploy the WAR file
Deploy the WAR file in the servlet container. Follow the instructions in the documentation for the servlet container.Deploy a Standalone App

- Create an app with an embedded Tomcat web server
This deployment type has an embedded Tomcat web server and is ready to deploy in a production environment. Previously, this was referred to as a “self-contained deployment.” - Create an executable Java JAR file This is a JAR package. Previously, this was referred to as a “self-executing deployment.”
