ui5-task-nwabap-deployer

ui5-task-nwabap-deployer is a custom UI5 Tooling task which allows to directly deploy the builded sources to a SAP NetWeaver ABAP application server.

Starting from version 2.0.0 this deployer uses the OData Service /UI5/ABAP_RESPOSITORY_SRV for deploying UI5 sources. Please make sure that the service is activated on your system (for details you can check SAP note 2999557). The new service does some sanity checks like e.g. virus scans. If you have not configured virus scan profiles or want to disable virus scanning please have a look to SAP note 2437892. Current deployer versions starting from version 2.0.0 can be used with SAP systems on which component SAP_UI 753 is installed. On systems with a lower version of component SAP_UI, you have to use version 1.x.x of this deployer.

Install

npm install ui5-task-nwabap-deployer --save-dev

Configuration Options (in $yourapp/ui5.yaml)

• resources
  • pattern: optional string | array glob pattern to match files for deployment (e.g. **/*.* to match all files); if not set **/*.* is used

  • testMode: optional boolean Do deployment in test mode (alternative: set environment variable UI5_TASK_NWABAP_DEPLOYER__TESTMODE).
  • customQueryParams: option key/value query parameter values added to the call to the SAP NetWeaver ABAP application server
• authentication
  • user: stringUser used for logon to SAP NetWeaver ABAP application server (alternative: set environment variable UI5_TASK_NWABAP_DEPLOYER__USER)
  • password: string Password used for logon to SAP NetWeaver ABAP application server (alternative: set environment variable UI5_TASK_NWABAP_DEPLOYER__PASSWORD)
• ui5
  • language: optional string Language for deployment (e.g. EN); default value EN
  • package: string Defines the development package in which the BSP container for the UI5 sources is available or should be created.
  • bspContainer: string Defines the name of the BSP container used for the storage of the UI5 sources. Length is restricted to 15 characters (exclusive customer specific namespaces, e.g. /YYY/).
  • bspContainerText: string Defines the description of the BSP container.
  • transportNo: optional (in case package is set to $TMP) string Defines the transport number which logs the changes (alternative: set environment variable UI5_TASK_NWABAP_DEPLOYER__TRANSPORTNO).
