TSTool / Install AWS Plugin
This appendix describes how to install the AWS Plugin.
Overview
TSTool is used with AWS to automate file uploads and downloads. The TSTool AWS plugin is currently only available for Windows and must be installed after the TSTool software is installed.
Multiple versions of TSTool can be installed at the same time, which allows transition during software updates.
Install TSTool
See the core product Install TSTool appendix for general information about installing TSTool. The core product must be installed first before plugins are installed.
Install and Configure the TSTool AWS Plugin
The AWS plugin software is currently installed by unzipping the installation file. The plugin is currently only available for Windows.
Download the TSTool AWS Plugin from the OWF Software page,
for example saving in the Downloads folder on Windows.
Use a tool such as 7zip or open the zip file using Windows File Explorer to see its contents.
Unzip (or copy) the zip file contents to the folder C:\Users\user\.tstool\14\plugins\owf-tstool-aws-plugin similar to the following,
where user should be replaced with the specific user's login:
C:\Users\user\.tstool\plugins\owf-tstool-aws-plugin\
owf-tstool-aws-plugin-1.0.0.jar
dep\
*.jar (many files)
If the plugins folder does not exist, make sure to run TSTool at least one time to automatically create the folders
before installing the plugin.
If a previous version of the plugin was installed, remove the files before installing.
Restart TSTool. The plugin commands described in the next section should be listed in the Commmands(Plugin) menu.
TSTool will be enhanced in the future to provide a "plugin manager" to help with these tasks.
