Deploy an updated ViewApp

When deploying a ViewApp for the first time, the Galaxy Repository compiles all ViewApp configuration data, the display module, and binaries and places them in a destination folder with the server’s time stamp file. When you deploy the ViewApp again, only the files changed after the time stamp from last deploy operation are deployed again.

The following list summarizes the steps to deploy an updated ViewApp.

1. The Galaxy Repository verifies if any files in the ViewApp's destination folder contain any files that have changed since the previous deployment.

2. If no files have changed since the previous deployment, then the client will receive all files from CVR and deploy them to the destination folder, and also set the time stamp (server time) into the application folder.

3. If files have been changed since the previous deployment, then read the time stamp from destination folder, send it to the server, get delta changes, along with deleted files information, and stage them to the destination folder. Remove the deleted graphicl files

4. The Folder Synchronizer synchronizes the newly staged files to the computer running the ViewApp.
