Connect to container and you can check current directory

podman exec -it 40e118bf9318 sh

sh-4.5$ pwd

Update the properties in the

/opt/IBM/SMP/maximo/applications/maximo/properties/maximo.properties

file with the URL, user name, and password for your Maximo Manage database.

Customization

Copy files to container

Get your source code, create a zip file and copy to container

podman cp mycode.zip  40e118bf9318:/home/maximoinstall/mycode.zip

Access your Maximo Manager container

podman exec -it 40e118bf9318 sh

Prepare environment

cd /home/maximoinstall

mkdir src target

cd src

unzip mycode.zip

Compile Java customization and create customization_binaries.zip

Inside the container, let's export environment variables

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/ibm/java
export LIB_DIR=/opt/IBM/SMP/maximo/applications/maximo/lib/*
export CLASS_DIR=/opt/IBM/SMP/maximo/applications/maximo/businessobjects/classes/*

add the list of java files to sources.txt file

cd /home/maximoinstall/src

find . -name "*.java" > sources.txt

Compile files

$JAVA_HOME/bin/javac -d target -cp "$LIB_DIR:$CLASS_DIR" @sources.txt

Confirm that you dont have errors

Copy Non-Java Files using rsync

rsync -av --exclude="*.java" src/ target/

If you dont have rsync try this:

find src/ -type f ! -name "*.java" -exec cp --parents \{\} target/ \;

Create customization archive

cd /home/maximoinstall/target 

zip --verbose -r ../customization_binaries.zip *

How to test

Extract the content in the same directory structure as customization archive
Deploy customization archive on a test environment , or
Test customization archive use local container deployment for Manage without OpenShift and MAS for limited but fast testing
