A Java client for the NATS messaging system.
Current stable release (click for pom info):
Snapshot releases from the current master
branch are uploaded to Sonatype OSSRH (OSS Repository Hosting) with each successful Travis CI build.
If you don't already have your pom.xml configured for using Maven snapshots, you'll need to add the following repository to your pom.xml:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>allow-snapshots</id>
<activation><activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault></activation>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>snapshots-repo</id>
<url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots</url>
<releases><enabled>false</enabled></releases>
<snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
</repository>
</repositories>
</profile>
</profiles>
To clone, compile, and install in your local maven repository (or copy the artifacts from the target/
directory to wherever you need them):
git clone [email protected]:nats-io/java-nats.git
cd java-nats
mvn install
We use RNG to generate unique inbox names. A peculiarity of the JDK on Linux (see [JDK-6202721] (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6202721) and JDK-6521844) causes Java to use /dev/random
even when /dev/urandom
is called for. The net effect is that successive calls to newInbox()
, either directly or through calling request()
will become very slow, on the order of seconds, making many applications unusable if the issue is not addressed. A simple workaround would be to use the following jvm args.
-Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom

TLS/SSL connections may be configured through the use of an SSLContext.

tks.load(classLoader.getResourceAsStream("cacerts"), trustPassPhrase);

tmf.init(tks);
// Get and initialize the SSLContext
SSLContext c = SSLContext.getInstance(Constants.DEFAULT_SSL_PROTOCOL);
c.init(kmf.getKeyManagers(), tmf.getTrustManagers(), null);
// Create NATS options
Options opts = new Options.Builder()
.secure() // Set the secure option, indicating that TLS is required
.tlsDebug() // Set TLS debug, which will produce additional console output
.sslContext(c) // Set the context for this factory
.build();
// Create a new SSL connection
try (Connection connection = Nats.connect("nats://localhost:1222", opts)) {
connection.publish("foo", "Hello".getBytes());

This library logs error, warning, and debug information using the Simple Logging Facade for Java (SLF4J) API. This gives you, the downstream user, flexibility to choose which (if any) logging implementation you prefer.
A: You're getting that message because slf4j can't find an actual logger implementation in your classpath. Carefully reading the link embedded in those exception messages is highly recommended!
