This repository contains code to help to provide Spring developers with easy configuration of the IBM MQ JMS package.
The library contains:
mq-jms-spring-boot-starterfor Spring Boot 2 applications
If the VERSION file contains "LOCAL" in the version definition, then the gradle build process puts the generated jar into your local directory tree. It can then be referenced from the application build.
Otherwise it can be automatically downloaded from Maven Central.
Gradle:
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile group: 'com.ibm.mq', name: 'mq-jms-spring-boot-starter', version: '2.1.2'
}
Maven:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ibm.mq</groupId>
<artifactId>mq-jms-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
<version>2.1.2</version>
</dependency>Note This repository and the corresponding Maven Central artifact has now been upgraded for Spring Boot 2 applications. For Spring Boot 1, you should continue to use the previously-released artifact at version 0.0.4.
The approach taken here is to follow the model for JMS applications shown in the Spring Getting Started Guide for JMS. That in turn is based on using the JmsTemplate Framework
The same application code from that example ought to work with MQ, with the simple replacement of the messaging provider in its dependency to point at this package, and changing the queue name ("mailbox" in that example) to "DEV.QUEUE.1", which is created automatically in the Docker-packaged MQ server.
Essentially what gets configured from this package is a ConnectionFactory which Spring's JmsTemplate implementation exploits to provide a simpler interface.
To get started quickly, you can use the default configuration settings in this package along with the IBM MQ for Developers container which runs the server processes.
The default options have been selected to match the MQ Docker container development configuration.
This means that you can run a queue manager using that Docker environment and connect to it. This script will run the container on a Linux system.
docker run --env LICENSE=accept --env MQ_QMGR_NAME=QM1 \
--publish 1414:1414 \
--publish 9443:9443 \
--detach \
ibmcom/mq
The default attributes are
ibm.mq.queueManager=QM1
ibm.mq.channel=DEV.ADMIN.SVRCONN
ibm.mq.connName=localhost(1414)
ibm.mq.user=admin
ibm.mq.password=passw0rd
If you already have a running MQ queue manager that you want to use, then you can easily modify the default configuration to match by providing override values.
The queue manager name is given as
ibm.mq.queueManager
For client connections to a queue manager, you must also set either
ibm.mq.channelibm.mq.connNameoribm.mq.ccdtUrl
If both the channel and connName are not supplied, and the CCDTURL is not supplied, then a local queue manager is assumed. The CCDTURL property is taken in preference to the channel and connName.
Optionally you can provide a client id and application name if required.
ibm.mq.clientIdibm.mq.applicationName
You will probably also need to set
ibm.mq.useribm.mq.password
to override the default values. These attributes can be set to an empty value, to use the local OS userid automatically with no authentication (if the queue manager has been set up to allow that).
For example in an application.properties file:
ibm.mq.queueManager=QM1
ibm.mq.channel=SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN
ibm.mq.connName=server.example.com(1414)
ibm.mq.user=user1
ibm.mq.password=passw0rd
Spring Boot will then create a ConnectionFactory that can then be used to interact with your queue manager.
The following options all default to null, but may be used to assist with configuring TLS
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| ibm.mq.sslCipherSuite | Cipher Suite, sets connectionFactory property WMQConstants.WMQ_SSL_CIPHER_SUITE |
| ibm.mq.sslCipherSpec | Cipher Spec, sets connectionFactory property WMQConstants.WMQ_SSL_CIPHER_SPEC |
| ibm.mq.sslPeerName | Peer Name, sets connectionFactory property WMQConstants.WMQ_SSL_PEER_NAME |
| ibm.mq.useIBMCipherMappings | Sets System property com.ibm.mq.cfg.useIBMCipherMappings |
You may configure a pooled connection factory by using those properties
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| ibm.mq.pool.enabled | Enabled Pooled connection factory usage |
| ibm.mq.pool.blockIfFull | Blocks a connection request when the pool is full. Default is false |
| ibm.mq.pool.blockIfFullTimeout | Blocking period before throwing an exception if the pool is still full |
| ibm.mq.pool.idleTimeout | Connection idle timeout. Default to 30 seconds |
| ibm.mq.pool.maxConnections | Maximum number of pooled connections. Default is 1 |
| ibm.mq.pool.maxSessionsPerConnection | Maximum number of pooled sessions. Default is 500 |
| ibm.mq.pool.timeBetweenExpirationCheck | Time to sleep between runs of the idle connection eviction thread. Disable when negative. Default is -1 |
| ibm.mq.pool.useAnonymousProducers | Whether to use only one anonymous "MessageProducer" instance. Set it to false to create one "MessageProducer" every time one is required |
Alternatively you may use the default Spring Caching connection factory with the default Spring JMS properties
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| spring.jms.cache.enabled | Whether to cache sessions |
| spring.jms.cache.consumers | Whether to cache message consumers |
| spring.jms.cache.producers | Whether to cache message producers |
| spring.jms.cache.session-cache-size | Size of the session cache (per JMS Session type) |
The VERSION file in this directory contains the version number associated with the build. For example, "0.1.2-SNAPSHOT".
Output from the build can be uploaded to a Maven repository.
The uploadArchives task controls publishing of the output. It uses the VERSION number to determine what to do, along with an environment variable. This means that we can build a non-SNAPSHOT version while still not pushing it out and the github version of the file can match exactly what was built.
- If the version contains 'SNAPSHOT' that we will use that temporary repo in the Central Repository. else we push to the RELEASE repository
- If the version contains 'LOCAL' or the environment variable "PushToMaven" is not set ** then the output will be copied to a local Maven repository under the user's home directory (~/.m2/repository). ** otherwise we attempt to push the jar files to the Nexus Central Repository.
If pushing to the Nexus Release area, then once the build has been successfully transferred you must log into Nexus to do the final promotion (CLOSE/RELEASE) of the artifact. Although it is possible to automate that process, I am not doing it in this build file so we do a manual check that the build has been successful and to check validity before freezing a version number.
Using Nexus Central Repository requires authentication and authorisation. The userid and password associated with the account are held in a local file (gradle.properties) that is not part of this public repository. That properties file also holds information about the signing key that Nexus requires.
---- Example gradle.properties file --------
# These access the GPG key and certificate
signing.keyId=AAA111BB
signing.password=MyPassw0rd
signing.secretKeyRingFile=/home/user/.gnupg/secring.gpg
# This is the authentication to Nexus
ossrhUsername=myNexusId
ossrhPassword=MyOtherPassw0rd
