Deployment of jar files via the Deploy an Azure App Service step in Octopus Server is currently disabled. This PR is in response to a feature request to support jar deployment.
The existing implementation for war files is not suitable for jar deployment because the file contents are extracted on deployment. The Kudu service supports jar deployment via the /api/publish?type=jar endpoint, which renames the jar to app.jar and places it within the wwwroot directory on the app service. By default, the app service is not capable of running jar files, so a startup script or command is required (eg.
java -jar /home/site/wwwroot/app.jar
)Testing this PR requires a sandbox app service configured to support Java, with a startup command to execute the jar.
No Octopus branch instance is available for this PR yet due to build failures
