Chapter 3. Getting started


This chapter guides you through the steps to set up your environment and run a simple messaging program.

3.1. Prerequisites

3.2. Running Hello World

The Hello World example creates a connection to the broker, sends a message containing a greeting to the example queue, and receives it back. On success, it prints the received message to the console.

Example: Sending and receiving "Hello World!" - HelloWorld.java

package net.example;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.CommandLineRunner;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.jms.annotation.EnableJms;
import org.springframework.jms.annotation.JmsListener;
import org.springframework.jms.core.JmsTemplate;

@EnableJms
@SpringBootApplication
public class HelloWorld implements CommandLineRunner {
    @Autowired
    private JmsTemplate jmsTemplate;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(HelloWorld.class, args);
    }

    @Override
    public void run(String... strings) throws Exception {
        sendMessage("Hello World!");
    }

    public void sendMessage(String text) {
        System.out.println(String.format("Sending '%s'", text));
        this.jmsTemplate.convertAndSend("example", text);
    }

    @JmsListener(destination = "example")
    public void receiveMessage(String text) {
        System.out.println(String.format("Received '%s'", text));
    }
}

Running the example

To compile and run the example program, use the following procedure:

Procedure

  1. Create a new project directory. This is referred to as <project-dir> in the steps that follow.
  2. Copy the example listing to the following location:

    <project-dir>/src/main/java/net/example/HelloWorld.java
  3. Use a text editor to create a new <project-dir>/pom.xml file. Add the following XML to it:

    <project>
      <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    
      <groupId>net.example</groupId>
      <artifactId>example</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    
      <parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>2.3.2.RELEASE</version>
      </parent>
    
      <dependencies>
        <dependency>
          <groupId>org.amqphub.spring</groupId>
          <artifactId>amqp-10-jms-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
          <version>2.3.3.redhat-00001</version>
        </dependency>
      </dependencies>
    
      <build>
        <plugins>
          <plugin>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
          </plugin>
        </plugins>
      </build>
    </project>
  4. Change to the project directory and use the mvn command to compile the program.

    $ mvn clean package
  5. Use the java command to run the program.

    $ java -jar target/example-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

    Running the Hello World example results in the following console output:

    $ java -jar target/example-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

More example programs are available from the AMQP 1.0 JMS Spring Boot project and the Spring project.
