AEM Automation – Deploy & Replicate Package

Guide:

Following is the Powershell script that will automate the process of uploading and install the AEM package to Author Instance. The uploaded package will be replicated to publish instances using cURL. Following are the parameters,

param( 

[String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$CQ_USER="admin", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$CQ_PASS="admin", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$AEMPORT="4502", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$HOSTNAME="localhost", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$PKGNAME="aemdev.ui.apps-1.0-SNAPSHOT.zip", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$PKGPATH="C:\Users\SKYDEVOPS\Documents\AEMMVN\aemdev\ui.apps\target\${PKGNAME}", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$GCURL="http://${HOSTNAME}:${AEMPORT}/crx/packmgr/service.jsp", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$RCURL="http://${HOSTNAME}:${AEMPORT}/crx/packmgr/service/script.html/etc/packages/aemdev/${PKGNAME}?cmd=replicate", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$CURLEXE="C:\tools\curl761\bin\curl.exe" ) 

Following is the cURL command that will Install-Package on AEM instance, which needs username and password to authenticate package installation, also a path to the package that needs to be installed

Write-Output "Installing APPS Package" cmd.exe /c $CURLEXE -u "${CQ_USER}:${CQ_PASS}" -F file=@"$PKGPATH" -F name="AEMDEV" -F force=true -F install=true "$GCURL" | Out-Null Write-Output "Package Installation Complete"

Following is the cURL command that will replicate the installed package to all the publishers

Write-Output "Replicating Package" cmd.exe /c $CURLEXE -u "${CQ_USER}:${CQ_PASS}" -X POST $RCURL Write-Output "Replication Complete"

Following is the entire script

# Parameters param( [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$CQ_USER="admin", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$CQ_PASS="admin", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$AEMPORT="4502", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$HOSTNAME="localhost", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$PKGNAME="aemdev.ui.apps-1.0-SNAPSHOT.zip", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$PKGPATH="C:\Users\SKYDEVOPS\Documents\AEMMVN\aemdev\ui.apps\target\${PKGNAME}", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$GCURL="http://${HOSTNAME}:${AEMPORT}/crx/packmgr/service.jsp", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$RCURL="http://${HOSTNAME}:${AEMPORT}/crx/packmgr/service/script.html/etc/packages/aemdev/${PKGNAME}?cmd=replicate", [String][parameter(Mandatory=$False,ValueFromPipeline=$False)]$CURLEXE="C:\tools\curl761\bin\curl.exe"
