This is an extension plugin that adds AI functionality to Hawtio. This plugin is intended for use with Hawtio v5.

Installation

    <artifactId>hawtio-ai-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>0.1.1</version>
</dependency>

NPM

npm i @hawtio/ai-plugin

Yarn

Development

Key components

The key components of the project are as follows:

Components	Description
hawtio-ai-plugin	Hawtio AI plugin itself; TypeScript project.
hawtio-ai-plugin-test-app	Test project for developing the Hawtio AI plugin, based on Spring Boot.

Build

mvn clean install

Run the test app

mvn spring-boot:run -pl app -Dskip.yarn

The test application's Hawtio console can be accessed at: http://localhost:8080/hawtio/

Develop

Note

Faster plugin development cycle

You can develop a plugin step by step by running mvn install or mvn spring-boot:run while checking the behaviour in the browser each time, but in this way you cannot run a quick development feedback cycle.

You can instead develop the frontend project of the plugin in a fast feedback cycle by running the test application on the backend while starting the plugin itself in development mode with yarn start, as follows.

To develop the plugin, firstly launch the test application on the backend:

mvn spring-boot:run -Dskip.yarn

Then, in another terminal, start the plugin project in development mode:

cd plugin
yarn start

Now you should be able to preview the plugin under development at http://localhost:3001/hawtio/. However, since it still hasn't been connected to a backend JVM, you can only test features that don't require the JMX MBean tree.

To test the features that depend on the JMX MBean tree, use Connect plugin http://localhost:3001/hawtio/connect to connect to the test application running in the background. The Jolokia endpoint should be available at http://localhost:8080/hawtio/jolokia.

Now you can preview all kinds of features provided by the plugin on the console under development, and run a faster development cycle by utilising hot reloading provided by Webpack.
