Simple Bash script to download Tomcat 7.0.23 and deploy a WAR.

install.sh

#!/bin/bash

TOMCAT=apache-tomcat-7.0.23
TOMCAT_WEBAPPS=$TOMCAT/webapps
TOMCAT_CONFIG=$TOMCAT/conf/server.xml
TOMCAT_START=$TOMCAT/bin/startup.sh
TOMCAT_ARCHIVE=$TOMCAT.tar.gz
TOMCAT_URL=http://apache.mirrorcatalogs.com/tomcat/tomcat-7/v7.0.23/bin/$TOMCAT_ARCHIVE
WAR_FILE=whatever.war

if [ ! -e $TOMCAT ]; then
    if [ ! -r $TOMCAT_ARCHIVE ]; then
	if [ -n "$(which curl)" ]; then
	    curl -O $TOMCAT_URL
	elif [ -n "$(which wget)" ]; then
	    wget $TOMCAT_URL
	fi
    fi

    if [ ! -r $TOMCAT_ARCHIVE ]; then
	echo "Tomcat could not be downloaded." 1>&2
	echo "Verify that eiter curl or wget is installed." 1>&2
	echo "If they are, check your internet connection and try again." 1>&2
	echo "You may also download $TOMCAT_ARCHIVE and place it in this folder." 1>&2
	exit 1
    fi

    tar -zxf $TOMCAT_ARCHIVE
    rm $TOMCAT_ARCHIVE
fi

if [ ! -w $TOMCAT -o ! -w $TOMCAT_WEBAPPS ]; then
    echo "$TOMCAT and $TOMCAT_WEBAPPS must be writable." 1>&2
    exit 1
fi

if [ ! -r $WAR_FILE ]; then
    echo "$WAR_FILE is missing. Download it and run this again to deploy it." 1>&2
else
    cp $WAR_FILE $TOMCAT_WEBAPPS
fi

# place tomcat customizations here
sed -i s/8080/9090/g $TOMCAT_CONFIG

$TOMCAT_START

uninstall.sh

#!/bin/bash

TOMCAT=apache-tomcat-7.0.23
TOMCAT_SHUTDOWN=$TOMCAT/bin/shutdown.sh

$TOMCAT_SHUTDOWN
rm -fr $TOMCAT

DO U HAVE SAME SCRIPT FOR TOMCAT 8 ?

Change this two lines:
TOMCAT=apache-tomcat-8.5.41
TOMCAT_URL=http://ftp.unicamp.br/pub/apache/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.5.41/bin/$TOMCAT_ARCHIVE

what is whatever.war

what is whatever.war

Example path to your .war file intended to be changed for your needs.

Suppose I have vm where I need to run this same scrpit, but that vm don't have internet connection. Then how can we install and deploy the file?

Is user data/cloud config an option?

Not sure,
One more point, I am trying another approach where I am putting the Apache tomcat.gz.tz file and using the script I am unzipping it and copy the UI code into webapps folder but don't know it's not working.
Giving me error.

I checked it again..
It's working.. thanks.
