With a few simple annotations you can quickly enable and configure the common patterns inside your application and build large distributed systems with battle-tested Netflix components. The patterns provided include Service Discovery (Eureka), Circuit Breaker (Hystrix), Intelligent Routing (Zuul) and Client Side Load Balancing (Ribbon). == Features * Service Discovery: Eureka instances can be registered and clients can discover the instances using Spring-managed beans * Service Discovery: an embedded Eureka server can be created with declarative Java configuration * Circuit Breaker: Hystrix clients can be built with a simple annotation-driven method decorator * Circuit Breaker: embedded Hystrix dashboard with declarative Java configuration * Declarative REST Client: Feign creates a dynamic implementation of an interface decorated with JAX-RS or Spring MVC annotations * Client Side Load Balancer: Ribbon * External Configuration: a bridge from the Spring Environment to Archaius (enables native configuration of Netflix components using Spring Boot conventions) * Router and Filter: automatic registration of Zuul filters, and a simple convention over configuration approach to reverse proxy creation == Building :jdkversion: 1.8 === Basic Compile and Test To build the source you will need to install JDK {jdkversion}. Spring Cloud uses Maven for most build-related activities, and you should be able to get off the ground quite quickly by cloning the project you are interested in and typing ---- $ ./mvnw install ---- NOTE: You can also install Maven (>=3.3.3) yourself and run the `mvn` command in place of `./mvnw` in the examples below. If you do that you also might need to add `-P spring` if your local Maven settings do not contain repository declarations for spring pre-release artifacts. NOTE: Be aware that you might need to increase the amount of memory available to Maven by setting a `MAVEN_OPTS` environment variable with a value like `-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m`. We try to cover this in the `.mvn` configuration, so if you find you have to do it to make a build succeed, please raise a ticket to get the settings added to source control. For hints on how to build the project look in `.travis.yml` if there is one. There should be a "script" and maybe "install" command. Also look at the "services" section to see if any services need to be running locally (e.g. mongo or rabbit). Ignore the git-related bits that you might find in "before_install" since they're related to setting git credentials and you already have those. The projects that require middleware generally include a `docker-compose.yml`, so consider using http://compose.docker.io/[Docker Compose] to run the middeware servers in Docker containers. See the README in the https://github.com/spring-cloud-samples/scripts[scripts demo repository] for specific instructions about the common cases of mongo, rabbit and redis. NOTE: If all else fails, build with the command from `.travis.yml` (usually `./mvnw install`). === Documentation The spring-cloud-build module has a "docs" profile, and if you switch that on it will try to build asciidoc sources from `src/main/asciidoc`. As part of that process it will look for a `README.adoc` and process it by loading all the includes, but not parsing or rendering it, just copying it to `${main.basedir}` (defaults to `${basedir}`, i.e. the root of the project). If there are any changes in the README it will then show up after a Maven build as a modified file in the correct place. Just commit it and push the change. === Working with the code If you don't have an IDE preference we would recommend that you use http://www.springsource.com/developer/sts[Spring Tools Suite] or http://eclipse.org[Eclipse] when working with the code. We use the http://eclipse.org/m2e/[m2eclipe] eclipse plugin for maven support. Other IDEs and tools should also work without issue as long as they use Maven 3.3.3 or better. ==== Importing into eclipse with m2eclipse We recommend the http://eclipse.org/m2e/[m2eclipe] eclipse plugin when working with eclipse. If you don't already have m2eclipse installed it is available from the "eclipse marketplace". NOTE: Older versions of m2e do not support Maven 3.3, so once the projects are imported into Eclipse you will also need to tell m2eclipse to use the right profile for the projects. If you see many different errors related to the POMs in the projects, check that you have an up to date installation. If you can't upgrade m2e, add the "spring" profile to your `settings.xml`. Alternatively you can copy the repository settings from the "spring" profile of the parent pom into your `settings.xml`. ==== Importing into eclipse without m2eclipse If you prefer not to use m2eclipse you can generate eclipse project metadata using the following command: [indent=0] ---- $ ./mvnw eclipse:eclipse ---- The generated eclipse projects can be imported by selecting `import existing projects` from the `file` menu. ==== Adding Project Lombok Agent Spring Cloud uses http://projectlombok.org/features/index.html[Project Lombok] to generate getters and setters etc. Compiling from the command line this shouldn't cause any problems, but in an IDE you need to add an agent to the JVM. Full instructions can be found in the Lombok website. The sign that you need to do this is a lot of compiler errors to do with missing methods and fields, e.g. [indent=0] ---- The method getInitialStatus() is undefined for the type EurekaInstanceConfigBean EurekaDiscoveryClientConfiguration.java /spring-cloud-netflix-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/netflix/eureka line 120 Java Problem The method getInitialStatus() is undefined for the type EurekaInstanceConfigBean EurekaDiscoveryClientConfiguration.java /spring-cloud-netflix-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/netflix/eureka line 121 Java Problem The method setNonSecurePort(int) is undefined for the type EurekaInstanceConfigBean EurekaDiscoveryClientConfiguration.java /spring-cloud-netflix-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/netflix/eureka line 112 Java Problem The type EurekaInstanceConfigBean.IdentifyingDataCenterInfo must implement the inherited abstract method DataCenterInfo.getName() EurekaInstanceConfigBean.java /spring-cloud-netflix-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/netflix/eureka line 131 Java Problem The method getId() is undefined for the type ProxyRouteLocator.ProxyRouteSpec PreDecorationFilter.java /spring-cloud-netflix-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/netflix/zuul/filters/pre line 60 Java Problem The method getLocation() is undefined for the type ProxyRouteLocator.ProxyRouteSpec PreDecorationFilter.java /spring-cloud-netflix-core/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/netflix/zuul/filters/pre line 55 Java Problem ---- ==== Importing into Intellij Spring Cloud projects use annotation processing, particularly Lombok, which requires configuration or you will encounter compile problems. It also needs a specific version of maven and a profile enabled. Intellij 14.1+ requires some configuration to ensure these are setup properly. 1. Click Preferences, Plugins. *Ensure Lombok is installed* 2. Click New, Project from Existing Sources, choose your spring-cloud project directory 3. Choose Maven, and select Environment Settings. *Ensure you are using Maven 3.3.3* 4. In the next screen, *Select the profile `spring`* click Next until Finish. 5. Click Preferences, "Build, Execution, Deployment", Compiler, Annotation Processors. *Click Enable Annotation Processing* 6. Click Build, Rebuild Project, and you are ready to go! ==== Importing into other IDEs Maven is well supported by most Java IDEs. Refer to you vendor documentation. == Contributing Spring Cloud is released under the non-restrictive Apache 2.0 license, and follows a very standard Github development process, using Github tracker for issues and merging pull requests into master. If you want to contribute even something trivial please do not hesitate, but follow the guidelines below. === Sign the Contributor License Agreement Before we accept a non-trivial patch or pull request we will need you to sign the https://cla.pivotal.io/sign/spring[Contributor License Agreement]. Signing the contributor's agreement does not grant anyone commit rights to the main repository, but it does mean that we can accept your contributions, and you will get an author credit if we do. Active contributors might be asked to join the core team, and given the ability to merge pull requests. === Code of Conduct This project adheres to the Contributor Covenant https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-build/blob/master/docs/src/main/asciidoc/code-of-conduct.adoc[code of conduct]. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to spring-code-of-conduct@pivotal.io. === Code Conventions and Housekeeping None of these is essential for a pull request, but they will all help. They can also be added after the original pull request but before a merge. * Use the Spring Framework code format conventions. If you use Eclipse you can import formatter settings using the `eclipse-code-formatter.xml` file from the https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-build/master/spring-cloud-dependencies-parent/eclipse-code-formatter.xml[Spring Cloud Build] project. If using IntelliJ, you can use the http://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6546[Eclipse Code Formatter Plugin] to import the same file. * Make sure all new `.java` files to have a simple Javadoc class comment with at least an `@author` tag identifying you, and preferably at least a paragraph on what the class is for. * Add the ASF license header comment to all new `.java` files (copy from existing files in the project) * Add yourself as an `@author` to the .java files that you modify substantially (more than cosmetic changes). * Add some Javadocs and, if you change the namespace, some XSD doc elements. * A few unit tests would help a lot as well -- someone has to do it. * If no-one else is using your branch, please rebase it against the current master (or other target branch in the main project). * When writing a commit message please follow http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html[these conventions], if you are fixing an existing issue please add `Fixes gh-XXXX` at the end of the commit message (where XXXX is the issue number).
