run configuration to build maven project and deploy to tomcat server

Question

I am writing a java program using maven and running on a tomcat 9 server. I created a run configuration to build the project, but I was wondering if there is a way to modify the configuration to build the project and also deploy it to my server. Thanks in advance!

For small project you need e little workaround here:

• First create e post script for maven (mavenrc_post.batfor windows) see here
• In this script you have to move build files via ssh, and restart tomcat(you need to configure ssh on server).

For large projects you need software for automation like:

• Ansible Automation platform
• Docker Containers
• Azure Devops etc.
