Automated CI/CD

You can build the PowerServer project using a command-line tool (PBAutoBuild250.exe). You can also create a CI/CD pipeline using Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or other frameworks.

PBAutoBuild250.exe is a standalone tool that can compile and deploy PowerBuilder projects using DOS commands on Windows. It can automate the entire build and deploy process without requiring PowerBuilder IDE installed or any PowerBuilder license running; it is free for use! But it requires PowerBuilder Runtime and PowerServer Toolkit when compiling PowerServer projects, so it must be installed to a machine where PowerBuilder Runtime and PowerServer Toolkit are also installed.

The PBAutoBuild250 command can integrate with Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or other frameworks to automate the build and deployment process for PowerServer projects.
