Init GIT repository on my Google Drive

Some GIT basics mainly for me to remember. I use Google Drive as a poor man solution to share some Java test projects between my work place and my home. And that's how I have done it. First, init the (local) repository at Google Drive. On MacOS, the directory can be found at ~/Google\ Drive/:
cd ~/Google\ Drive/
mkdir projects
cd projects
mkdir my_project.git
cd my_project.git
git init --bare
In the test project workspace, a project is added to the repository as follows:
cd my_project
git init
git add *
git commit -m "My initial commit message"
git remote add origin ~/Google\ Drive/projects/my_project.git
git push -u origin master
Now I can clone the project:
git clone ~/Google\ Drive/projects/my_project.git
cd my_project

Running Node.js in Docker

0. Inform

This is basically a copy of the Hello World example found here and here with some additional comments.

1. Make the VM running

boot2docker up

2. Build the Docker image

Create your Node.js application index.js file:
var express = require('express');
var DEFAULT_PORT = 8080;
var PORT = process.env.PORT || DEFAULT_PORT;
var app = express();
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
  res.send('Hello World\n');
});
app.listen(PORT)
console.log('Running on http://localhost:' + PORT);
Create the Docker package.json file:
{
  "name": "docker-centos-hello-world",
  "private": true,
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "description": "Node.js Hello World app on CentOS using docker",
  "author": "Daniel Gasienica",
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "3.2.4"
  }
}
Create the Dockerfile:
FROM centos:6.4
RUN rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
RUN yum install -y npm
ADD . /src
RUN cd /src; npm install
EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["node", "/src/index.js"]
The layout of your directory should be as follows:
> ls
Dockerfile   index.js   package.json
Building the image:
docker build -t peter/centos-node-hello .
Verify if the image exists:
docker images
This should print:
REPOSITORY                TAG                   IMAGE ID            CREATED             VIRTUAL SIZE
peter/centos-node-hello   latest                6c55823e6868        4 hours ago         672.2 MB

3. Running

docker run -p 49160:8080 -d peter/centos-node-hello
The option -p exposes the port 8080 to 49160. This is essential. Without that, the server is not visible to a client.

Verify, if the process is running:
docker ps
You should see:
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                            COMMAND              CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                     NAMES
578bd01b0407        peter/centos-node-hello:latest   node /src/index.js   4 hours ago         Up 2 hours          0.0.0.0:49160->8080/tcp   jovial_feynman  
Inspect the image:
docker inspect 578bd01b0407
You should see a JSON output showing all relevant information:
...
"PortBindings": {
    "8080/tcp": [
        {
            "HostIp": "0.0.0.0",
            "HostPort": "49160"
        }
    ]
}
...
If the -p was not given when starting the process, HostPort would have been null and the application would not have been visible to clients. Test it:
curl localhost:49160
Now you should see:
Hello World.
Stop and start the process again:
docker stop 578bd01b0407
docker ps doesn't show the process any more. docker ps -a lists the process as Exited:
> docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                            COMMAND              CREATED             STATUS                       PORTS               NAMES
578bd01b0407        peter/centos-node-hello:latest   node /src/index.js   12 minutes ago      Exited (143) 9 seconds ago                       jovial_feynman     
So, start it again:
docker start 578bd01b0407
Test if the process is running:
> docker -ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                            COMMAND              CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                     NAMES
578bd01b0407        peter/centos-node-hello:latest   node /src/index.js   14 minutes ago      Up 2 seconds        0.0.0.0:49160->8080/tcp   jovial_feynman 
Check the logs:
> docker logs 578bd01b0407
Running on http://localhost:8080
Running on http://localhost:8080

> boot2docker stop
Run following script (this takes a while):
for i in {49000..49900}; do
 VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port$i,tcp,,$i,,$i";
 VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "udp-port$i,udp,,$i,,$i";
done
Starting docker VM again and login using ssh:
> boot2docker up
> boot2docker ssh
Then you should see:

JBoss Wildfly with Apache Camel: first unsuccessful test

Today, I tried to setup the Wildfly Camel integration. Unfortunately, I was not successful. Please see what I have tried.

For my tests I used Wildfly 8.0.0.Final and the Wildfly Camel integration installer 1.0.0.Alpha1.

Step 1: Download

Download the Wildfly Camel installer from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jboss/files/WildFly-Camel/1.0.0.Alpha1/

This will download the installer file wildfly-camel-installer-1.0.0.Alpha1.jar

Step 2: Install

> cd wildfly-8.0.0.Final/
> java -jar wildfly-camel-install-1.0.0.Alpha1.jar

This will install among others all necessary jars in the modules directory and the standalone camel configuration file standalone/configuration/standalone-camel.xml.

Step 3: Running

>  cd bin
> ./standalone.sh -c standalone-camel.xml

 This will produce following error:

[521]% ./standalone.sh -c standalone-camel.xml

That's too bad.  Obviously, the XML configuration file standalone-camel.xml created by the installer meets not the schema expected by the final Wildfly 8.0.0 version. It turns out that the Netty connector definition is mal-configured.

Step 4: Extending standalone.xml

Try to fix the configuration starting with the default standalone.xml file.

Adding Camel extension:

<extension module="org.wildfly.camel" />

Adding subsystem with simple Camel context:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:camel:1.0">
    <camelContext id="system-context-1">
         &lt;route&gt;
             &lt;from uri="direct:start"/&gt;
             &lt;transform&gt;
                 &lt;simple&gt;Hello #{body}&lt;/simple&gt;
             &lt;/transform&gt;
         &lt;/route&gt;      
    </camelContext>
 </subsystem>


Starting Wildfly as described in Step 3 leads to following error message in the console:

19:27:30,306 ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 28) JBAS014612: Operation ("add") failed - address: ([("subsystem" => "camel")]): java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.as.naming.service.BinderService.getManagedObjectInjector()Lorg/jboss/msc/inject/Injector;

Step 5: Giving up...

The Wildfly Camel integration sounds interesting. However, it seems not really ready for use. To be continued...

Using Hawtio to monitor Apache Camel route started as Java standalone process

Step 1: Gathering info

http://hawt.io/getstarted/index.html

Step 2: Download Jolokia Java Agent

Download Jolokia JARs from:

http://jolokia.org/dist/1.2.1/jolokia-1.2.1-bin.zip

Unzip the file.

Step 3: Add VM arguments to for enabling Jolokia Java Agent

Add following VM arguments when starting your Java standalone client:

-javaagent:/path/to/-javaagent:/Developer/Workspace/Java/libs/jolokia-1.2.1/agents/jolokia-jvm.jar


Step 4: Start the Camel route

You should see something similar in your console

I> No access restrictor found, access to all MBean is allowed
Jolokia: Agent started with URL http://127.0.0.1:8778/jolokia/


Step 5: Download and install Chrom Client

Download extension:

http://central.maven.org/maven2/io/hawt/hawtio-crx/1.3.1/hawtio-crx-1.3.1.crx

Start Chrom and open extension path at chrome://extensions/

Drop the downloaded CRX file onto the page

Open the app page, select Hawtio app and enter the URL that was shown on Step 4. In my case this was port 8778 and path jolokia.

You should see the Hawtio page with your Camel route:



I especially like the Diagram tab showing the route layout:

JBoss Wildfly with Apache Camel

Wildfly Camel Integration

This sounds interesting: Apache Camel integration with the WildFly Application Server:
There are two ways to deploy a Camel Context to WildFly
  1. As a single XMl file with a predefined -camel-context.xml file suffix
  2. As part of another WildFly supported deployment as META-INF/jboss-camel-context.xml file 

JBoss Modules

Alternatively, see http://sourcevirtues.wordpress.com/2013/11/25/add-apache-camel-and-spring-as-jboss-module-in-wildfly/ how Camel dependencies can be added to JBoss Wildfly using JBoss modules.

JBoss Wildfly in 5 minutes (or a little bit more, but not much)

Step 1: Gathering information

Access:

http://www.wildfly.org/

Step 2: Download the server

Download Wildfly v8.0.0:

http://download.jboss.org/wildfly/8.0.0.Final/wildfly-8.0.0.Final.zip

Step 3: Install the server

> unzip wildfly-8.0.0.Final.zip

Step 4: Start the server

> cd wildfly-8.0.0.Final
> cd bin
> ./standalone.sh

On my not so fast iMac, the first time the server was started it took about 20 seconds, the second time only about 4 seconds:

11:36:10,083 INFO  [org.jboss.ws.common.management] (MSC service thread 1-4) JBWS022052: Starting JBoss Web Services - Stack CXF Server 4.2.3.Final
11:36:10,153 INFO  [org.jboss.as] (Controller Boot Thread) JBAS015961: Http management interface listening on http://127.0.0.1:9990/management
11:36:10,154 INFO  [org.jboss.as] (Controller Boot Thread) JBAS015951: Admin console listening on http://127.0.0.1:9990
11:36:10,154 INFO  [org.jboss.as] (Controller Boot Thread) JBAS015874: WildFly 8.0.0.Final "WildFly" started in 4221ms - Started 183 of 232 services (80 services are lazy, passive or on-demand)


Check if the server is started on http://localhost:8080. You should see the Wildfly welcome page.

Step 5: Access Administration console

http://localhost:9990

This will not work... It states:
To add a new user execute the add-user.sh script within the bin folder of your WildFly installation and enter the requested information.
 Try that and answer the questions:

> ./add-user.sh

I added an admin user. Access http://localhost:9990 again, and voilĂ , the admin cosole is shown.

Step 6: Deploy the first application

Clone from GitHub

> git clone https://github.com/wildfly/quickstart.git

Build and deploy the project:

> cd quickstart/
> mvn wildfly:deploy

You should see the following log messages:

11:46:40,620 INFO  [org.jboss.as.repository] (management-handler-thread - 1) JBAS014900: Content added at location /Developer/Workspace/Java/containers/wildfly-8.0.0.Final/standalone/data/content/0b/37af36408419a89a9c1f015ea3570c87ced389/content

Access the application:

http://localhost:8080/wildfly-helloworld/HelloWorld

You should see the "Hello World!" message.

Exclude external JavaScript libraries from beeing validated in Eclipse 4

Due to an Eclipse Bug, JavaScript errors of external JavaScript libraries are marked as erroronous showing the red failure marker even if JavaScript errors are excluded from the contents Markers view, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=349020

Workaround as spooted in the Eclipse bug history:
I have found that I can leave the JavaScript Validator enable and ignore 
specific files by adding a suitable exclusion pattern e.g. **/jquery*.js to 
the JavaScript/Include Path/Source/Excluded group 
(Project->Properties->JavaScript->Include Path->Source).
