Re: [Hawkular-dev] you can now download a wildfly agent installer from kettle

| In the UI it seems that "WildFly Home" doesn't get filled on my machine I know, hopefully, I'll fix that today. There is poor support for the file/directory choosers in angular :/ 2Mazz: Rather than pre-filling the credentials (username+password), it'd be better to do that for the hawkular-security-key and hawkular-security-secret. I guess, they could be obtained via the accounts' REST api. In that case we can keep the ui as simple as possible and all the user needs to do is to select the wildfly home.

Run your wildfly and you've got it monitored by the agent. | | Now, of course, there are lots of ways you can customize the agent | installation. The above just gets you the default agent with jdoe/password | credentials assuming http://localhost:8080 is accessible when you install. | | Whatever properties that are accepted in the installer .properties file | (which are also the same cmdline options to the installer) you can pass to | the download URL so they can be preset for you in the installer's default | configuration. So, for example, if you want all of your agents to talk to " | http://your-hawk-server:8080 ", you can do this to get an installer that | will install an agent talking to that server: | | wget --content-disposition ' | http://localhost:8080/wildfly-agent/download?installer=true&hawkular-... | ' | | There are other properties you can pass in if you want to further customize | the installer and the agent it installs. Just look at this for all that are | available: | | https://github.com/hawkular/hawkular-agent/blob/master/hawkular-wildfly-a... | | In the future, we want to have the installer that you download preconfigured | (if you want) for the credentials of the user who requested the download, | and preconfigured for the server that you downloaded the installer from | (right now, it defaults to " http://localhost:8080 " which is not optimal). | But, again, you can customize this now via installer cmdline options if you | want: | | java -jar hawkular-wildfly-agent-installer-0.13.1.Final.jar \ | --wildfly-home=/path/to/your/wildfly/home \ | --hawkular-server-url= http://your-server:8080 \ | --hawkular-security-key=your-offline-token-key \ | --hawkular-security-secret=your-offline-token-secret \ | --subsystem-snippet=/path/to/my/custom/agent-subsystem.xml | | That latter one (subsystem-snippet) is a powerful way you can further | configure the agent by giving a full .xml of the agent subsystem (so you can | do things like define what resource-type-dmr definitions you want, what | metrics you want enabled or disabled, etc, etc.) | _______________________________________________ | hawkular-dev mailing list | hawkular-dev(a)lists.jboss.org | https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hawkular-dev | | | | | _______________________________________________ | hawkular-dev mailing list | hawkular-dev(a)lists.jboss.org | https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hawkular-dev | _______________________________________________ hawkular-dev mailing list hawkular-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hawkular-dev
