Service Virtualization

I wanted to check if we can create a mar file of the devtest project via an API. 

If yes then i can use a Jenkins job to generate a MAR file and deploy the service on a server. I know that there is a way to deploy a mar file from github via Jenkins but do we have a away to generate a mar file from github via API?

Thanks,

Hello Sabarish,

Currently, DevTest REST API calls do not have the function to create a MAR file. You can create an IDEA to request this as a feature enhancement for the product. The IDEA would be evaluated by our Product Management team and may be considered for implementation in future releases.

Hi Sabarish,

There is currently no web service API available to create a MAR.  However, there is a CLI in [DevTestHome]/bin called "MakeMar.exe" which you can use in your Jenkins pipeline.  Type MakeMar without arguments to see the options available.
