Deploying MDS(Artifacts) into server using WLST (Weblogic Scripting Tool)

There are 3 operations that can be performed on MDS:

1)      Export Metadata

2)      Import Metadata

3)      Delete Metadata

•       Export Metadata: To import the deployed artifacts from server to local system can be done by using this operation.

•       Import Metadata: To insert or update the artifacts in MDS, this option is used.

•       Delete Metadata: To delete the artifacts from MDS, this option is used.

Meaning of some terms:

•       toLocation: The local directory path where artifacts structure is defined that needs to be deployed at MDS.

•       fromLocation: The path of local machine/server where artifacts need to be imported from MDS.

Steps to follow before Export/Import/Delete Metadata

1)Go to the SOA Home

CàOracleàMiddlewareàOracle_SOA1àcommonàbin

2) Execute the command: wlst.cmd

3)Execute connect(‘username’, ’password’, ’t3://hostname:portofAdminserver’)

Example: connect(‘abc’,’1234’,localhost:7001’);

Export Metadata

• Perform 1,2,3 steps.
• exportMetadata(application='soa-infra', server='AdminServer', toLocation='C:/Oracle/MiddlewareJdev_7.0/jdeveloper/integration/seed/project.jar', docs='/apps/Sample/**', remote=’true’)

Import Metadata

• Perform 1,2,3 steps.
• importMetadata(application='soa-infra', server='AdminServer', fromLocation=‘C:\Test3\mdstest.zip’,docs='/**', remote=’true’). 

After this we can see the xsd’s or wsdl’s under SOA_MDSàConnection1 with in a separate folder.

 

Now we can use these files in any project we are needed by going into resource palette à SOA_MDS.

Delete Metadata

• Perform 1, 2, 3 steps.
• deleteMetadata(application='soa-infra',server='AdminServer',docs='/apps/S/UtilityServices/FTP/V1/wsdl/**')

It removes folder also

• sca_removeSharedData('http://localhost:7001','S/UtilityServices/FTP/V1/xsd')
