To upload an application, call the stand-alone tool from the command line.
Use the stand-alone tool by following these steps.
java com.ibm.appcenter.Upload [options] [files]You can pass any of the available options in the command line.
| Option | Content indicated by | Description |
|---|---|---|
| -s | serverpath | The path to the Application Center server. |
| -c | context | The context of the Application Center web application. |
| -u | user | The user credentials to access the Application Center. |
| -p | password | The password of the user. |
| -d | description | The description of the application to be uploaded. |
| -l | label | The fallback label. Normally the label is taken from the application descriptor stored in the file to be uploaded. If the application descriptor does not contain a label, the fallback label is used. |
| -isActive | true or false | The application is stored in the Application Center as an active or inactive application. |
| -isInstaller | true or false | The application is stored in the Application Center with the “installer” flag set appropriately. |
| -isReadyForProduction | true or false | The application is stored in the Application Center with the “ready-for-production” flag set appropriately. |

| -e | Shows the full exception stack trace on failure. | |
| -f | Force uploading of applications, even if they exist already. | |
| -y | Disable SSL security checking, which allows publishing on secured hosts without verification of the SSL certificate. Use of this flag is a security risk, but may be suitable for testing localhost with temporary self-signed SSL certificates. |
