Preparation
To prepare the container build, I downloaded the current versions of TRA/BW/EMS from the TIBCO edelivery platform.
I downloaded the following artifacts:
- TIB_TRA_5.11.0_linux_x86_64.zip
- TIB_BW_5.14.0_linux26gl23_x86_64.zip
- TIB_rv_8.4.6_linux_x86.zip
- TIB_ems_8.5.1_linux_x86_64.zip
Now to bring those together into a container I copied all of those into a tibco-businessworks-runtime directory.
Installation
To support a headless installation, the TIBCO universal installer uses silent files. I attached my silent file at the end of this post.
The Dockerfile is also attached.
Running the engine
Now that the container is built, I can start the engine inside. To get the actual code inside, I opted for a volume mount, which only contains the source as a TIBCO Designer project.
The project on my local disk is located on /Users/jens/tmp/tibco-ide/sample. This is mapped to the /tmp/engine directory.
Now I can start the engine through docker run.
docker run \
-v /Users/jens/tmp/tibco-ide/sample:/tmp/engine \
businessworks-runtime ./bwengine -p bwengine.tra /tmp/engine
