Chapter 8. Integrate a Camel Application with the AMQ Broker

8.1. Example How to Deploy a Spring Boot Camel A-MQ Quickstart

This tutorial shows how to deploy a quickstart using the A-MQ image.

8.1.1. Prerequisites

  1. Ensure that OpenShift is running correctly and the Fuse image streams are already installed in OpenShift. See Section 4.1, “Prerequisites”.
  2. Ensure that Maven Repositories are configured for fuse, see Section 4.2.1, “Configure Maven Repositories”

8.1.2. Building and Deploying the Quickstart

This example requires a JBoss A-MQ 6 image and deployment template. If you are using CDK 3.1.1+, JBoss A-MQ 6 images and templates should be already installed in the openshift namespace by default.

To build and deploy the A-MQ quickstart, perform the following steps:

  1. Log in to OpenShift as a developer, for example:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    oc login -u developer -p developer

  2. Create a new project amq-quickstart

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    oc new-project amq-quickstart

  3. Determine the version of the A-MQ 6 images and templates installed:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    $ oc get template -n openshift

    You should be able to find a template named amqXX-basic, where XX is the version of A-MQ installed in Openshift.

  4. Deploy the A-MQ 6 image in the amq-quickstart namespace (replace XX with the actual version of A-MQ found in previous step):

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    $ oc process openshift//amqXX-basic -p APPLICATION_NAME=broker -p MQ_USERNAME=admin -p MQ_PASSWORD=admin -p MQ_QUEUES=test -p MQ_PROTOCOL=amqp -n amq-quickstart | oc create -f -
    Note

    This oc command could fail, if you use an older version of oc. This syntax works with oc versions 3.5.x (based on Kubernetes 1.5.x).

  5. Add role which is needed for discovery of mesh endpoints (through Kubernetes REST API agent).

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    $ oc policy add-role-to-user view system:serviceaccount:amq-quickstart:default

  6. Create the quickstart project using the Maven workflow:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    $ mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.4:generate \
-DarchetypeCatalog=https://maven.repository.redhat.com/ga/io/fabric8/archetypes/archetypes-catalog/2.2.0.fuse-730042-redhat-00002/archetypes-catalog-2.2.0.fuse-730042-redhat-00002-archetype-catalog.xml \
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.jboss.fuse.fis.archetypes \
-DarchetypeArtifactId=spring-boot-camel-amq-archetype \
-DarchetypeVersion=2.2.0.fuse-730042-redhat-00002

  7. The archetype plug-in switches to interactive mode to prompt you for the remaining fields:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    Define value for property 'groupId': : org.example.fis
Define value for property 'artifactId': : fuse73-spring-boot-camel-amq
Define value for property 'version':  1.0-SNAPSHOT: :
Define value for property 'package':  org.example.fis: :
[INFO] Using property: spring-boot-version = 1.5.17.RELEASE
Confirm properties configuration:
groupId: org.example.fis
artifactId: fuse73-spring-boot-camel-amq
version: 1.0-SNAPSHOT
package: org.example.fis
spring-boot-version: 1.5.17.RELEASE
 Y: :

    When prompted, enter org.example.fis for the groupId value and fuse73-spring-boot-camel-amq for the artifactId value. Accept the defaults for the remaining fields.

  8. Navigate to the quickstart directory fuse73-spring-boot-camel-amq:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    $ cd fuse73-spring-boot-camel-amq

  9. Customize the client credentials for logging on to the broker, by setting the ACTIVEMQ_BROKER_USERNAME and ACTIVEMQ_BROKER_PASSWORD environment variables. In the fuse73-spring-boot-camel-amq project, edit the src/main/fabric8/deployment.yml file, as follows:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
        -
          resources:
            requests:
              cpu: "0.2"
#              memory: 256Mi
            limits:
              cpu: "1.0"
#              memory: 256Mi
          env:
          - name: AMQP_HOST
            value: broker-amq-amqp
          - name: SPRING_APPLICATION_JSON
            value: '{"server":{"undertow":{"io-threads":1, "worker-threads":2 }}}'
          - name: AMQP_USERNAME
            value: admin
          - name: AMQP_PASSWORD
            value: admin

  10. Run the mvn command to deploy the quickstart to OpenShift server.

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap 
    mvn fabric8:deploy -Popenshift
  11. To verify that the quickstart is running successfully, navigate to the OpenShift console, select the project amq-quickstart, click Applications, select Pods, click fis-spring-boot-camel-am-1-xxxxx, and click Logs.

  12. The output shows the messages are sent successfully.

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
