Plugin Documentation

Goals available for this plugin:

Goal Description
was6:clean Cleans out temporary resources and generated sources.
was6:ejbdeploy Generates EJB RMIC stub sources.

This goal will fork a parallel life cycle up to package phase. This is required because an archive is required as input to the underlying tasks.
was6:help Display help information on was6-maven-plugin. Call 
 mvn was6:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=<goal-name>
to display parameter details.
was6:installApp Installs an EAR into WebSphere Application Server.
was6:wsAdmin The wsadmin goal executes the WebSphere command-line administration tool with the specified arguments.
was6:wsDefaultBindings This goal enables you to generate default IBM WebSphere Bindings for the specified EAR file. The goal provides options to control how the bindings are generated and mimics the options provided by the WebSphere Application Install wizards. The goal binds to the package phase by default.
was6:wsListApps Lists all the applications installed on a WebSphere Server or Cell. This goal is a wrapper for the AdminApp.list() command of the wsadmin tool. Refer to the wsadmin documentation for information on this operation.
was6:wsStartApp The wsStartApplication goal enables you to start an existing or newly installed application on a WebSphere Server or in a WebSphere Cell.
was6:wsStartServer Starts a standalone server instance. This is not used to start a server controlled by DeploymentManager. Therefore, this goal is useful for the Base Application Server, and to start the Node Agent and/or DeploymentManager. If you wish to start a server managed by the Deployment Manager, use the wsadmin task to execute a scripting command.
was6:wsStopApp The wsStopApp goal enables you to stop an existing or newly installed application on a WebSphere Server or in a WebSphere Cell. This goal is a wrapper for the ApplicationManager.stopApplication() command of the wsadmin tool. Refer to the wsadmin documentation for information on this operation.
was6:wsStopServer This goal enables you to stop a standalone server instance. This is not used to stop a server controlled by DeploymentManager. Therefore, this task is useful for the Base Application Server, and to stop the Node Agent and/or DeploymentManager. If you wish to stop a server managed by the Deployment Manager, use the wsadmin task to execute a scripting command.
was6:wsUninstallApp Enables you to uninstall an existing application from a WebSphere Server or Cell. This goal builds upon the wsadmin task and shares many of the same attributes. This task is a wrapper for the AdminApp.uninstall() command of the wsadmin tool.
