In Data migrator, Create packaging functionality to produce distribution as a standalone application

[yanavasileva]

User Story (Required on creation)

As a process engineer, I want to download and run the Data migrator as a standalone application.

Functional Requirements (Required before implementation)

Create packaging functionality to produce distribution as a standalone application.

Technical Requirements (Required before implementation)

• Create a separate module.
• The artifact should be distributed as zip and tar.
• Contains start bat/sh script that
  • The migrator's start script runs in the foreground.
  • Running ./start.sh without any flags migrates runtime first and history second
  • Flags can be passed to the ./start.sh script:
    • --runtime => to migrate runtime data only.
    • --history => to migrate history data only.
    • Implementation idea: pass flags as psvm args and let the core jar react on the different input. We don’t see much value in separating each argument into a dedicated JAR like we do it for C7 Run.
• Provides an application.yml file that allows you to configure the Migrator (e.g., source/target data source).
• Contains userlib folder where database drivers (or plugins) can be dropped to be used according to user needs. See C7 Run “rolemodel”.
• Contains the License and Notice files from the repo.
• Contains readme file that contains
  • license information
  • contents
  • link to the repo's readme for usage information

Limitations of Scope

Hints

• The Camunda Run distribution can be used as example: Spring Boot application that is packaged with assembly.xml
• Time estimate: 5 days
