This article describes how to deploy the Figaf tool to CPI BTP, Cloud Foundry.
- Install "cf" command on your computer https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cli/wiki/V8-CLI-Installation-Guide#installers-and-compressed-binaries.
Log in to your SAP BTP account (API Endpoint value can be found on your subaccount overview page):
cf login -a https://api.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com
You should find the API on the subaccount page
Fetch the possible work CF domains
cf domains
In the
vars.yaml in the working directory add the cfapps URL to as the landscape domain
Create PostgreSQL database in BTP and wait until it's ready. It is recommended to use the SAP BTP UI instead of CLI command. You can use default options.
cf create-service postgresql-db trial figaf-db -c db.json
In some cases the JSON is different and you may need to deploy it the BTP UI just make users it is called figaf-db. If you already have created the database then skip step.
- Open vars.yml and fill in the needed values. You can find the latest docker image here. Don't use the Release candidates unless specified by our support team.
By default, pull of the image will be done anonymously. Docker Hub
limits amount of pulls without authentication. It may cause the error
toomanyrequests: You have reached your pull rate limit.
To prevent it, register your user on Docker Hub and specify username in vars.yml in a variable DOCKER_USERNAME. - Create XSUAA service. It's possible to use SAP BTP UI instead of CLI command for the same operation.
cf create-service xsuaa application figaf-xsuaa -c xs-security.json
- Go to Security -> Users and select/create your user. Assign Figaf role(s) to the user. For simplicity you can assign just the IRTAdmin role for the first user:

- The database creation can take some time (up to 10 minutes) so be sure to check the status of the creation of the services.
- Deploy the applications from the working directory. (If you called your services differently than figaf-db and figaf-xsuaa, update the names in manifest.yml).
cf push --vars-file vars.yml
- Go to the app router and open the URL.

- You will be redirected to the SAP login page (if the user is not logged in yet) where you will need to provide the username and password.
- Then you will be authenticated and redirected back to the Figaf tool.
Go to Configuration -> License and insert your license key.
Next up you can configure your agents.
How to upgrade
We will monthly be publishing new versions of Figaf. You therefore need to have a good way to upgrade Figaf. It is normally fairly easy to upgrade. Just keep the versions of the BTP users directory in a place where you can easily access it.
1) Update the
vars.yaml file to point to the newest docker image
see2) Login to CF using
If you are using the same service
cf login
or
3) Delete the running apps this can be done using cf commands or you can do it from the BTP cockpit. Just navigate to the subaccount and space for it
cf apps
cf delete pi-figaf-router -f
cf delete pi-figaf-app -f
4) Deploy again using
cf push --vars-file vars.yml
