I'm pleased to announce that version 1.0.0 of the WindRide project, an EAP config migration tool, was released.

 

About

WindRide is a complement to WindUp. While Windup helps with application migration, WindRide migrates EAP configuration (from 5 to 6).

 

How to try it

There's a demo video which shows how to use WindRide. In short, it's these steps:

 

  1. Have EAP 5 directory with your config
  2. Download, unzip and run EAP 6
  3. Download and run WindRide, giving it the paths to both EAP 5 and EAP 6
    • java -jar WindRide-1.0.0.jar src.dir=jboss-eap-5.2/jboss-as dest.dir=jboss-eap-6.1 app.path=MyCoolApp.war
  4. Done!

 

What's new?

 

* Version 1.0.0 has externalized migration rules. You can customize existing migration steps, or write your own, e.g. for WebLogic.

* The project was renamed to WindRide from previous codename SwanLoom.

* The maven artifact used for distribution is now named org.jboss.migr.as.WindRide.

 

Download

After the artifact rename, the binaries will be available under:

https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org/jboss/migr/as/WindRide

 

This release's distribution jar is available at:

The 0.11.x is a preparation for 1.0.0, which will have the externalized rules.

 

In this release, most of the externalized definition constructs work as per documentation - queries, actions, expresison language, forEach loops.

What still is not tested are the Groovy expressions in filters.

Hopefuly, that will be fixed during next week and 1.0.0 can go out!
