I have two computers , I don't want to install weblogic and oracle in my development computer, they consume too much memory, the problem is how can I deploy my application on development computer to another free computer which has oracle and weblogic installed ? I am using weblogic 10.3.

1Just to clarify: would you like to deploy from inside workshop or from ant/command line/console? – Petri Pellinen Jan 25 '10 at 18:01

Even when not running?

You can use the following tools:
webLogic.Deployer
(see the weblogic.Deployer Command Line Reference)- Admin Console
wldeploy
, the Ant Task version of theweblogic.Deployer
(see the wldeploy Ant Task Reference)- WLST (see Deploying Applications in the WebLogic Scripting Tool documentation).
Other options (if you are using maven):
- weblogic maven plugin (no feedback to give you except that I wouldn't use it)
cargo maven plugin(doesn't support deployment to remote weblogic)

Does any of these options allow to deploy an application to remote WebLogic automatically and without having the whole WebLogic package locally installed? – 30thh Sep 09 '21 at 10:33
Wldeploy works like a charm. The configuration looks like this.
<target name="deploy">
<wl.deploy.app archivepath="${ear.path}" name="${ear.deployment.name}"
wladminuser="${weblogic.admin.user}" wlserverhost="${weblogic.server.host}"
wlserverport="${weblogic.server.port}" wlservername="${test.server.name}"
wladminpassword="${weblogic.admin.password}"/>
</target>
<macrodef name="wl.deploy.app">
<attribute name="archivepath"/>
<attribute name="name"/>
<attribute name="wladminuser"/>
<attribute name="wladminpassword"/>
<attribute name="wlserverhost"/>
<attribute name="wlserverport"/>
<attribute name="wlservername"/>
<attribute name="sharedlibrary" default="false"/>
<sequential>
<wldeploy action="deploy" verbose="true" debug="true"
name="@{name}"
library="@{sharedlibrary}"
remote="true"
upload="true"
source="@{archivepath}"
user="@{wladminuser}" password="@{wladminpassword}"
adminurl="t3://@{wlserverhost}:@{wlserverport}"
targets="@{wlservername}"/>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
Just specify all the properties correctly be it localhost or a remote machine. It should work.

If you use the Ant Task, then be sure and include the upload="true" parameter. This will copy the war, ear file to the remote weblogic system so you don't have to.

You can deploy WebLogic Application using REST Interface (I am not sure, if it is available for all the WLS versions).
REST interface must be enabled over Admin Console (server restart needed):
Settings / Configuration / General [Advanced] / Enable RESTful Management Services
It is actually a JSON based REST interface, but if you need to upload something, multipart/form-data
is used instead.
It works like this (tested on WLS v12.2.1.4):
curl -X POST 'http://<server>:7001/management/weblogic/latest/edit/appDeployments'
-u <username>:<password>
--header 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data'
--header 'X-Requested-By: <any_string>'
--form 'sourcePath=@<local_path_to_war_file>'
--form 'model={"name": "<application_name>"}'
--form 'planPath=@<local_path_to_plan_xml_file>'
Don't forget X-Requested-By. WebLogic requires as CSRF protection.
