<body>
<p>This package contains a set of <code>Task</code> implementations for
<em>Ant (version 1.6.x or later)</em> that can be used to interact with the
Manager application to deploy, undeploy, list, reload, start and stop web applications
from a running instance of Tomcat. For more information, see
<a href="https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-11.0-doc/manager-howto.html">
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-11.0-doc/manager-howto.html</a>.</p>
<p>The attributes of each task element correspond
exactly to the request parameters that are included with an HTTP request
sent directly to the Manager application. They are summarized as follows:
</p>
<table>
<caption>Task attributes</caption>
<tr>
<th>Attribute</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>url</td>
<td>
The URL of the Manager web application you will use to
perform the requested operations. If not specified, defaults to
<code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text</code> (which corresponds
to a standard installation of Tomcat 7).
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>username</td>
<td>
The username of a Tomcat user that has been configured with the
<code>manager-script</code> role, as required to execute Manager
application commands. This attribute is required.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>password</td>
<td>
The password of a Tomcat user that has been configured with the
<code>manager-script</code> role, as required to execute Manager
application commands. This attribute is required.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>config</td>
<td>
A URL pointing at the context configuration file (i.e. a file
containing only the <code><Context></code> element, and
its nested elements, from <code>server.xml</code> for a particular
web application). This attribute is supported only on the
<code>install</code> target, and is required only if you wish to
install an application with non-default configuration characteristics.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>path</td>
<td>
The context path (including the leading slash) of the web application
this command is intended to manage, or a zero-length string for the
ROOT web application. This attribute is valid for the
<code>install</code>, <code>reload</code>, <code>remove</code>,
<code>start</code>, and <code>stop</code> tasks only, and is
required in all of those cases.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>war</td>
<td>
A <code>jar:</code> URL that points at a web application archive (WAR)
file, or a <code>file:</code> URL that points at an unpacked directory
containing the web application. This attribute is supported only on
the <code>install</code> target. You must specify at least one of the
<code>config</code> and <code>war</code> attributes; if you specify
both, the <code>war</code> attribute overrides the <code>docBase</code>
attribute in the context configuration file.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p><strong>NOTE</strong> - Commands executed through the <em>Manager</em>
application are <strong>NOT</strong> reflected in updates to the Tomcat
<code>server.xml</code> configuration file, so they do not persist past the
next time you restart the entire Tomcat container.</p>
