IRIS R18 Workbench

IRIS R18 Workbench is a Licensed Design-Time Tool that can be effectively used to create
Provider APIs as well as Publisher APIs. A separate request will be need to made to the
Distribution to acquire the workbench which facilitates you to create the APIs on your own.

IRIS Workbench Packaging

For acquiring the package, a request should be made for IRIS R18 design time package which
will follow the naming convention IRISR18_DesignTime_vxx.xx.xx.zip where xx denotes the
release version .
This package will mainly consist of the following components :

 irf-web-client.war - This is the Workbench war which needs to extracted from the zip package
and can be deployed in any of the application servers.(jboss,weblogic,websphere).It will needed
to connect to T24 via jetty server or default IRIS war.
 IRIS Workbench Configurations Steps
Step 1 : Extract the irf-web-client.war from the received Design time
package IRISR18_Design_vxx.xx.xx.zip.
Step 2 : Deploy the irf-web-client.war in deployment folder of Jboss Application Server.

Step 3 : Verify that the irf-web-client.war is deployed successfully and Workbench is up and
running.

 Open New Browser Window & type http://localhost:9089/irf-web-client/

 Step 4 : To start creating Provider APIs , you are required to connect to T24 to get a list of
artefacts for which you intend to generate an API service. There are two ways to do this :

 First way is using jetty server started from the created container project.For that please ensure
that the setting in the workbench has been properly configured and T24 is up and running.By
Default , jetty runs on 8080 port.
 Second way is to connect via irf-test-web.war provided as a part of the IRIS Runtime
package.For that you need to extract the irf-test-web.war from the package and deploy it in the
jboss server.Once successfully deployed, you need to configure the WorkBench by adding an
new server in the settings as shown below to connect to T24 via pre-configured irf-test-web.war
Step 5 : Once properly configured ,you should hover to APIs → Create Provider API and the
Workbench list you all the available artefacts in T24\. You are ready to go and create your own
APIs..!!!!
