Local JBoss development - Gepardec/Hogarama GitHub Wiki

TBD: Need to be tested or extended for Windows with Adaption of this page

If you want to develop Hogajama locally, you can start a local Wildfly and connect to a PostgreSQL and MongoDB running in Docker Containers.

Compile

To get started locally, it is best to use only simple components for the runtime. For example, don't use Keycloak or Kafka. See Modularisation Architecture and Optional Modules. Compile e.g. with:

(cd Hogajama && mvn clean install -P security-dummy,messaging-rest)

See Messaging-Modules for starting Tests in this setup.

Setup Guide

Setup PostgreSQL in Docker

docker run -d  --name hogarama-postgres -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_DB=management -e POSTGRES_USER=hogajama -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=changepassword postgres

You don't have to, but you may insert some configuration data into the management database:

echo 'drop schema hogajama cascade;' | docker run -i --rm  --network host -e PGPASSWORD=changepassword postgres psql -h localhost  -p 5432 -d management -U hogajama
cat Hogajama/configuration/postgres_backup_2023_07_10.txt | docker run -i --rm --network host -e PGPASSWORD=changepassword postgres psql -h localhost  -p 5432 -d management -U hogajama

Setup MongoDB in Docker

docker run -d  --name hogarama-mongo -p 27017:27017  -e MONGODB_USERNAME=hogajama -e MONGODB_PASSWORD=changepassword -e MONGODB_DATABASE=hogajamadb -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes bitnami/mongodb:latest

Setup Wildfly

Download the Wildfly Server (26.1.1.Final) and place the server source folder as a .zip file in the Downloads folder of your user. In this case there is a wildfly-26.1.1.Final.zip in the Downloads folder.

Clone JBoss Setup Scripts and setup JBSS environment: (in this example the JBSS Folder is placed next to the Hogarama Folder)

git clone [email protected]:Gepardec/JBSS.git
./JBSS/bin/setup.sh -i hogajama -r wildfly-26.1.1.Final
echo export ENV_FILE=`pwd`/Hogarama/codereadyworkspace/hogarama_local.env >> ~/.hogajamarc

Have a look to the hogarama_local.env file, this is the configuration of your local hogajama.

Configure your local JBoss:

cd  Hogarama/Hogajama/configuration/local_configuration/
hogajama configure .

Use hogajama help to find out more.

You may stop the unused MDB to prevent warnings in jboss-cli: /deployment=hogajama-rs-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.war/subsystem=ejb3/message-driven-bean=WateringMDB:stop-delivery

Deployments

Following deployments are on the JBoss:

  • hogajama-rs
  • hogajama-frontend
  • hogajama-angular-frontend

Setup Hogarama in Docker

To start all services go to Docker-Infrastructure and run docker-compose -p local-hogarama up -d.

AMQ

Registration on RedHat is required! Run docker login https://registry.redhat.io for login. Access the UI on https://localhost:8161/console/auth/login.

Keycloak

Keycloak is running on port 18080. Used to authentificate user to access data. It was set up using following the official documentation.

To use Keycloak for your local Hogarama, following steps needs to be done:

  1. A new Role has to be created:

    1. Open http://localhost:18080/ and log in with admin credentials (If you have trouble with chrome: Enable setting chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost or enter thisisunsafe in the chrome tab.)
    2. Go to Hogarama realm > Realm roles > Create role
    3. Create role with Role Name admins

  2. A new user has to be created:

    1. Open http://localhost:18080/ and log in with admin credentials (If you have trouble with chrome: Enable setting chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost or enter thisisunsafe in the chrome tab.)
    2. Go to Hogarama realm > Users > Add user
    3. Fill in the form the information about the new user and click on save
    4. Select new user
      1. Go to Credentials tab > set the password for the new user (uncheck Temporary)
      2. Go to Role Mapping tab > in Realm Roles assign admins role

  3. the hogarama credentials secret has to be created:

    1. Open http://localhost:18080/ and log in with admin credentials
    2. Go to Hogarama realm > Clients > Select hogarama
    3. Go to Credentials tab and click Generate secret
    4. Copy the new generated secret and set it in the Docker-Infrastructure/hogarama/local_env/hogarama_local.env file as KEYCLOAK_CREDENTIALS_SECRET environment variable
    5. restart hogajama WildFly server: 
      docker exec -it hogajama bash
hogajama restart

If you are using postman to call the hogarama REST endpoits, this will probably help you for the postman setup How to get access token from Keycloak using Postman — OAuth2

MongoDB

MongoDB is running on port 27017. Used to store received messages from AMQ

Postgres

Postgres is running on port 5432. Used to save management data that is visible in the angular frontend.

Wildfly (Hogajma)

Wildfly server is running on port 8080 and is configured as the production instance. It is necessery to move all war files into the Docker-Infrastructure/hogajama/deployments folder!

Local ENV file

Have a look at the Docker-Infrastructure/hogajama/local_env/hogarama_local.env file, this is the configuration of your local hogajama.

Common Config

Configure your local JBoss with all moduls (include kafka and disabled security):

docker exec -it hogajama bash
cd /tmp/setup/config-all
hogajama configure .

Configure your local JBoss with all mandatory moduls (without kafka):

docker exec -it hogajama bash
cd /tmp/setup/config-mandatory
hogajama configure .
Kafka config (optional)

Enable Kafka in your local JBoss:

docker exec -it hogajama bash
cd /tmp/setup/config-enable-kafka
hogajama configure .

Disable Kafka in your local JBoss :

docker exec -it hogajama bash
cd /tmp/setup/config-disable-kafka
hogajama configure .

Troubleshooting

Running Wildfly from IntelliJ in Debug Mode

Problem: ERROR: Cannot load this JVM TI agent twice, check your java command line for duplicate jdwp options.

This is happening, because IntelliJ is passing JAVA_OPTS parameters already defined in the standalone.conf

Solution:

  1. Edit the standalone.conf in your jboss-hogajama/bin Folder:
  • Comment out this line: JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n"
  1. IntelliJ: Disable the Pass environment variables within the Run/Debug Configuration->Startup/Connection for your Wildfly Server

Problem: Website shows "Could not load data. Please try again later."

Solution:

  • You didn't send data. You can send data with Raspberry-PI-Mocks-GUI
  • If you just added the environment variables, restart your JBoss, IDE
