tomcatjs
nodejs-based Tomcat Manager client library
tomcatjs is a simple library that interfaces with Tomcat Manager to allow programmatic access to its API via Nodejs JavaScript. Tested only with Tomcat7
Install
npm install tomcatjs --save
Usage
First of all, initialize the Manager object:
var tomcatjs = require("tomcatjs");
var manager = new tomcatjs.Manager("localhost", 8080, "tomcatManagerUser", "tomcatManagerPassword");
Right now only two APIs are implemented, list and undeploy. To obtain a list of apps currently in Tomcat:
manager.getApps().then(function(list) {
//this will print all apps in the server
list.forEach(function(st) {
console.log(st);
})
});
To undeploy an app:
manager.undeploy("appNameToUndeploy").then(function(applicationName) {
console.log(applicationName + " has been undeployed!");
}, function(err) {
console.log("error undeploying app: " + err);
})
Building
tomcatjs is developed in TypeScript, which compiles to JavaScript to be able to publish it as a npm module. In order to build tomcatjs, clone the repository and then install the following global dependencies:
npm install gulp -g
npm install typescript -g
npm install tsd -g
Once you have the above, execute in the repository folder:
npm install
... which will install all the development dependencies. To build the project:
gulp build
This will output the JavaScript npm package to the ./dist folder
