Spring Boot, Camel and AMQ Online QuickStart

This quickstart shows how to connect a Spring-Boot application to an AMQ Online SaaS message broker and use JMS messaging between two Camel routes using OpenShift.

Setting up the OpenShift environment

It is assumed that:

• Your OpenShift environment is configured for Fabric8 Maven Workflow, if not you can refer to my blog post Understand Fuse 7.5 on OpenShift.

  • You can easily setup the fuse on openshift using script install_fis_7.5.sh

• AMQ Online is installed on OpenShift environment,if not you can refer to my blog post Understand AMQ Online

  • You can easily setup the AMQ Online on OpenShift using script install-amq-online.sh

To setup the test project you can run the following script.

Tip	If the project where the amq-online operator installed is not amq-online-infra project, then modify the name in the script (you need to have admin access to the project)

$ src/main/resources/openshift/create_demo_app.sh

Important

After you run this command please take note of last two lines in output

For example output

oc get routes console -o 'jsonpath={.spec.host}' -n amq-online-infra
console-amq-online-infra.apps.cluster-91e5.sandbox671.opentlc.com (1)

oc get addressspace demo-space -o 'jsonpath={.status.endpointStatuses[?(@.name=="messaging")].externalHost}' -n amqp-demo
messaging-6c9efcc-amq-online-infra.apps.cluster-91e5.sandbox671.opentlc.com (2)

1. Console Url, which you will use to see the queue, topics, connections,etc

2. Messaging Endpoint which you will use to connect your application

Running the example on Local Machine (Spring Boot)

1. Modify the amqp.serviceName key in application.properties to the value you of Messaging Endpoint

2. Then the following command will run the application

mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring.profiles.active=dev

Running the example in OpenShift

1. The following command will package your app and run it on OpenShift:

   mvn fabric8:deploy -P openshift

2. To list all the running pods:

   oc get pods
