Custom Installer

The custom-installer.xml build file is an optional build file used during deployment after the base installer has run. It must have a default target and inherits all properties from the installer.xml file used by Studio. This includes the following property files:


  • module-descriptor.xml—The module descriptor for the module

  • build.properties—The build.properties file defined for your module

  • config.properties—A resolved set of properties generated from Platform defaults and the node.properties file

  • distribution.properties—A set of default properties used by Platform

The following example moves thesampleFilefile from the installer's build directory to the shared file system directory used by Platform:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="custom-installer" default="build">
<target name="build">
<move file="${basedir}/build/sampleFile" tofile="${sharedFilesystem.root}/sampleFile" />
</target>
</project>
