  1. Retrieve the rator-selfcare-rest-api .war file (either from Jenkins/Nexus, see Resources, or by building the .war yourself, see Build).
  2. Copy the war file to the Tomcat webapps directory and (re-)start the Tomcat application.
  3. Retrieve the swagger-ui dist folder (either from Github, or from our own repositories, see Resources. Or by building the project yourself, see Build).
  4. Copy the dist folder to the Tomcat webapps directory and (re-)start the Tomcat application. You probably want to rename the dist folder to swagger-ui
    1. Nb This can be a different Tomcat installation than in step 2, or the same.
  5. In your browser, enter the URL "http://<Swagger server and port>/<base-path>/?url=http://<REST server and port>/<base-path>/api/swagger.json". 
  6. You should now see a list of the resources available on the REST server.

If the Tomcat's server.xml file had a <Context/> tag like the above, where the base path for the rator-selfcare-rest-api is set to the empty string, the project would be available at http://localhost:8080/rator-selfcare-rest-api/api/<SOME RESOURCE>.

 

When deploying from Eclipse, such entry might have been added automatically. Configuring the context in the server.xml seems to be discouraged by various online sources.
