webapps-runtime

Configure MATLAB Runtime for use with MATLAB Web App Server from the command line on Windows, Linux, and macOS systems

Since R2020a

Security Considerations: When the server is configured to use MATLAB^® Runtime versions earlier than R2023b, the unsafe-inline attribute is included in the script-src directive of the server's Content Security Policy and cannot be removed. The attribute allows inline JavaScript^® execution and event handlers contained within a web app to execute on the server. For details, see webapps-cspolicy.

Syntax

webapps-runtime list

webapps-runtime add runtime_path

webapps-runtime remove

webapps-runtime remove runtime_path

webapps-runtime [--version | -v]

webapps-runtime [--help | -h]

Description

webapps-runtime list returns the list of currently configured versions of MATLAB Runtime.

webapps-runtime add runtime_path adds the path to a MATLAB Runtime installation, specified by runtime_path, to the server configuration.

webapps-runtime remove starts an interactive prompt to remove paths to MATLAB Runtime installations from the server configuration.

webapps-runtime remove runtime_path removes the path to a MATLAB Runtime installation, specified by runtime_path, from the server configuration.

webapps-runtime [--version | -v] returns the version of MATLAB Web App Server™ that is installed.

webapps-runtime [--help | -h] returns command-line help.

Examples

List MATLAB Runtime Installations

To get a list of MATLAB Runtime configured for use with the server, at the system command line, type:

webapps-runtime list

C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Runtime\v242
/usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Runtime/v242

Add MATLAB Runtime Path

To add the path to a MATLAB Runtime installation to the server configuration, at the system command line, type:

webapps-runtime add "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Runtime\v98"

MATLAB Runtime configuration updated. Changes will be applied the next time the server is started.

Remove MATLAB Runtime Path

To remove the path to a MATLAB Runtime installation from the server configuration, at the system command line, type:

webapps-runtime remove "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Runtime\v98"

MATLAB Runtime configuration updated. Changes will be applied the next time the server is started.

Get Version of MATLAB Web App Server

To get the version of MATLAB Web App Server that is installed, at the system command line, type:

webapps-runtime --version

MATLAB Web App Server (R2024b Release)

Get Command-Line Help

To get help for the current command, at the system command line, type:

webapps-runtime --help

Usage:
  webapps-runtime -h [ --help ]          Display this help message
  webapps-runtime -v [ --version ]       Display the version of MATLAB Web App Server
  webapps-runtime list                   Lists currently configured MATLAB Runtimes
  webapps-runtime add <runtime-path>     Adds runtime-path to the MATLAB Runtime configuration
  webapps-runtime remove                 Launch interactive prompt to remove MATLAB Runtimes 
                                         from the from the MATLAB Runtime configuration
  webapps-runtime remove <runtime-path>  Removes runtime-path from the MATLAB Runtime configuration

Input Arguments

runtime_path — Path to MATLAB Runtime installation

string

Specify the path to the MATLAB Runtime installation that you want to add to the server configuration or remove from the server configuration.

Example: "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Runtime\R2024b"
