@sap-ux/deploy-tooling NPM

`@sap-ux/deploy-tooling`

@sap-ux/deploy-tooling exposes the capabilities of custom tasks to deploy and undeploy SAP Fiori projects against ABAP servers.

Pre-requisites

SAP component SAP_UI 7.53 or higher is installed in your SAP system
Service needs to be enabled and accessible from your development environment, how to check this
For operations on a SAPUI5 ABAP repository, you need the S_DEVELOP authorization, how to check this

CLI

The module also exposes two commands deploy and undeploy.

Install

`npm install @sap-ux/deploy-tooling --save-dev`
# or
yarn add @sap-ux/deploy-tooling --dev

Verify local installation

npx deploy -h
# or
./node_modules/.bin/deploy -h

Usage

deploy [options]
# or
undeploy [options]

By default, YAML configuration is read from ui5-deploy.yaml, found in the root of your project when the deploy | undeploy commands are executed.

To change the default configuration location, run;

Deploy

deploy -c myproject/my-deploy-config.yaml
# or
deploy --config myproject/my-deploy-config.yaml

Undeploy

undeploy -c myproject/my-undeploy-config.yaml
# or
undeploy --config myproject/my-undeploy-config.yaml

Minimal Configuration

This is the minimal custom task configuration for deployment using package $TMP, without the change being recorded in a transport request.

- name: abap-deploy-task
  configuration:
    app:
      name: Z_TEST
      package: $TMP
    target:
      url: https://target.example
    exclude:
      - /test/

Configuration with logging enabled

Set the level of detail for log messages, default is Info;

Error = 0,
Warn = 1,
Info = 2,
Verbose = 3,
Debug = 4,
Silly = 5

Custom task YAML Configuration example:

- name: abap-deploy-task
  configuration:
    log: 5
    app:
      name: Z_TEST
      package: $TMP
    target:
      url: https://target.example
    exclude:
      - /test/

Or setting verbose: true will set the log level to Silly:

- name: abap-deploy-task
  configuration:
    verbose: true
    app:
      name: Z_TEST
      package: $TMP
    target:
      url: https://target.example
    exclude:
      - /test/

Deploy

The deploy command executes the same functionality as the abap-deploy UI5 task independent of the ui5 build execution. This allows to separate the build and the deployment process e.g. for CI/CD or to provide configurations as CLI args instead of having them defined in the ui5.yaml - nevertheless, the ui5.yaml is always required as a basis for the configuration.

Usage: deploy [options]

Options:
  -c, --config <path-to-yaml>          Path to config yaml file
  -y, --yes                            yes to all questions (default: false)
  -n, --no-retry                       do not retry if deploy fails for any reason, for CI/CD pipeline flows this option needs to be included (default: false)
  --verbose                            verbose log output (default: false)
  --destination  <destination>         Destination in SAP BTP pointing to an ABAP system

  --password                           ABAP Service password
  --authentication-type                Authentication type for the app (e.g. 'basic', 'reentranceTicket'). Required for 'reentranceTicket'.

Deploy Examples

Example 1 - Deploy to an ABAP Cloud system with strict SSL disabled

deploy --url <target-abap-system> --cloud true --name <app-name> --description '<app-description>' --package <package-name> --transport <transport-request> --no-strict-ssl

Using YAML configuration;

# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://sap.github.io/ui5-tooling/schema/ui5.yaml.json

specVersion: "3.1"
metadata:
  name: my.namespace.myappname
type: application
builder:
  resources:
    excludes:
      - /test/**
      - /localService/**
  customTasks:
    - name: abap-deploy-task
      afterTask: generateCachebusterInfo
      configuration:        
        target:
          url: <target-abap-system>
          cloud: true
        app:
          name: <app-name>
          description: <app-description>
          package: <package-name>
          transport: <transport-request>
        exclude:
          - /test/

Deploy CLI command;

deploy -c ui5-deploy.yaml --no-strict-ssl

Proxy Support

To enable support for TLS (Transport Layer Security) connections when using HTTPS_PROXY, update your environment by setting the TOOLSUITE_FEATURES environment variable with sap.ux.enablePatchProxy, as shown;

export TOOLSUITE_FEATURES=sap.ux.enablePatchProxy
export HTTPS_PROXY=<YOUR-PROXY:PORT>

Example Scenario

If you're using a proxy server to route your HTTPS traffic, the proxy server will need to create a secure, TLS-encrypted connection to the target server on your behalf. tls.connect() will be used to establish that encrypted tunnel between your client, the proxy, and the server.
