How to run hawt.io in spring boot application with

Question

I would like to add hawt.io as an embedded component to my spring boot 'fat jar' application which has an embedded tomcat server.

How can I do this? How could I deploy the hawt.io war file?

UPDATE: I added the dependencies:

• hawtio-web
• hawtio-core
• hawtio-plugin-mbean
• hawtio-springboot to my pom

When I start the application now and open the url localhost:8080/hatio/index.html I get the login page presented. Since I don't know username and password I the added hawtio.authenticationEnabled=false to my application.properties

But - now I get a warning ' WARN 3420 --- [nio-8080-exec-4] o.s.web.servlet.PageNotFound : Request method 'POST' not supported' followed by a a null pointer exception.

Answer 1

I had exactly the same issue - and here is how I solved the problem.

I found out that spring-boot doesnt support legacy web.xml configuration which is what you get when the maven-war-plugin does the overlay of the hawtio-web project on top of your own war. The resulting war contains both your web code as well as the content of the hawtio-web archive.

See http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-traditional-deployment.html

So I started the process of configuring the servlets and filters in spring.

First add the necesary dependencies to pom.xml

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
        <version>${spring-boot-version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-actuator</artifactId>
        <version>${spring-boot-version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.hawt</groupId>
        <artifactId>hawtio-springboot</artifactId>
        <version>${hawtio.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.hawt</groupId>
        <artifactId>hawtio-core</artifactId>
        <version>${hawtio.version}</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Im using these versions:

<hawtio.version>2.0.0</hawtio.version>
<spring-boot.version>1.2.3.RELEASE</spring-boot.version>

Add a Configuration class to configure the servlets and filters:

@Configuration
public class HawtioConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    public void addResourceHandlers(final ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) {
        registry.addResourceHandler("/hawtio/plugins/**").addResourceLocations("/app/", "classpath:/static/hawtio/app/");
        registry.addResourceHandler("/hawtio/**").addResourceLocations("/", "/app/", "classpath:/static/hawtio/",
                "classpath:/static/hawtio/app/");
    }

    @Override
    public void addViewControllers(final ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
        registry.addViewController("/hawtio/plugin").setViewName("forward:/plugin");
        registry.addViewController("/hawtio/").setViewName("redirect:/hawtio/index.html");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean userServlet() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new UserServlet(), "/user/*", "/hawtio/user/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean jolokiaproxy() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new ProxyServlet(), "/hawtio/proxy/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean kubeservice() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new ServiceServlet(), "/hawtio/service/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean kubepod() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new PodServlet(), "/hawtio/pod/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean fileupload() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new UploadServlet(), "/hawtio/file-upload/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean loginservlet() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new LoginServlet(), "/hawtio/auth/login/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean logoutservlet() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new LogoutServlet(), "/hawtio/auth/logout/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean keycloakservlet() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new KeycloakServlet(), "/hawtio/keycloak/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean exportcontextservlet() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new ExportContextServlet(), "/hawtio/exportContext/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean mavenSource() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new JavaDocServlet(), "/hawtio/javadoc/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean contextFormatter() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new ContextFormatterServlet(), "/hawtio/contextFormatter/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean gitServlet() {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new GitServlet(), "/hawtio/git/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletListenerRegistrationBean hawtioContextListener() {
        return new ServletListenerRegistrationBean<>(new HawtioContextListener());
    }

    @Bean
    public ServletListenerRegistrationBean fileCleanerCleanup() {
        return new ServletListenerRegistrationBean<>(new FileCleanerCleanup());
    }

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean redirectFilter() {
        final FilterRegistrationBean filter = new FilterRegistrationBean();
        filter.setFilter(new RedirectFilter());
        filter.setUrlPatterns(Collections.singletonList("/hawtio/*"));
        return filter;
    }

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean sessionExpiryFilter() {
        final FilterRegistrationBean filter = new FilterRegistrationBean();
        filter.setFilter(new SessionExpiryFilter());
        filter.setUrlPatterns(Collections.singletonList("/hawtio/*"));
        return filter;
    }

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean cacheFilter() {
        final FilterRegistrationBean filter = new FilterRegistrationBean();
        filter.setFilter(new CacheHeadersFilter());
        filter.setUrlPatterns(Collections.singletonList("/hawtio/*"));
        return filter;
    }

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean CORSFilter() {
        final FilterRegistrationBean filter = new FilterRegistrationBean();
        filter.setFilter(new CORSFilter());
        filter.setUrlPatterns(Collections.singletonList("/hawtio/*"));
        return filter;
    }

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean XFrameOptionsFilter() {
        final FilterRegistrationBean filter = new FilterRegistrationBean();
        filter.setFilter(new XFrameOptionsFilter());
        filter.setUrlPatterns(Collections.singletonList("/hawtio/*"));
        return filter;
    }

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean AuthenticationFilter() {
        final FilterRegistrationBean filter = new FilterRegistrationBean();
        filter.setFilter(new AuthenticationFilter());
        filter.setUrlPatterns(Arrays.asList("/hawtio/auth/*", "/jolokia/*", "/hawtio/upload/*", "/hawtio/javadoc/*"));
        return filter;
    }

}

I have tested this with both jetty and tomcat - and it works with both. I have also submitted this as a patch to hawtio, but it is not released as of yet. You could compile hawtio yourself and import the HawtioConfiguration: https://github.com/hawtio/hawtio/blob/master/hawtio-springboot/src/main/java/io/hawt/springboot/HawtioConfiguration.java

I have also updated the hawtio-sample to use the HawtioConfiguration: https://github.com/hawtio/hawtio/tree/master/hawtio-sample-springboot

Now i can access hawtio by visiting http://localhost:8080/hawtio/index.html

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Answer 2

Here is what I have from following the latest tutorials (I'm guessing Hawtio improved this since this question was asked and answered originally): Using spring-boot-starter-parent 1.3.5.RELEASE, Hawtio version 1.4.64, include the following dependencies:

<dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-actuator</artifactId>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.hawt</groupId>
            <artifactId>hawtio-springboot</artifactId>
            <version>${hawtio.version}</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.hawt</groupId>
            <artifactId>hawtio-core</artifactId>
            <version>${hawtio.version}</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jolokia</groupId>
            <artifactId>jolokia-core</artifactId>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Here is a sample application class that sets up Hawtio with disabled authentication:

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableHawtio
public class SampleApplication {
    @Autowired
    private ServletContext servletContext;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.setProperty(AuthenticationFilter.HAWTIO_AUTHENTICATION_ENABLED, "false");
        SpringApplication.run(SampleApplication.class, args);
    }

    @PostConstruct
    public void init() {
        final ConfigManager configManager = new ConfigManager();
        configManager.init();
        servletContext.setAttribute("ConfigManager", configManager);
    }

    /**
     * Set things up to be in offline mode
     * @return
     * @throws Exception
     */
    @Bean
    public ConfigFacade configFacade() throws Exception {
        ConfigFacade config = new ConfigFacade() {
            public boolean isOffline() {
                return true;
            }
        };
        config.init();
        return config;
    }
}
