How do we plan on distributing the Hawkular WildFly Agent now?
Before, we
had a WAR deployed in the server that had a single servlet running that
would take an HTTP GET or POST request and based on the request would
package up the agent installer with the latest agent extension and properly
config the installer so when the agent was installed it could talk to that
server where it came from. It would also allow the installer to give the
agent the proper token credentials so it could talk to the server.
Is that WAR/servlet still going to be in the headless version? Just
curious what the plans were for that.
This detail was specifically left out because we will need to clarify the
requirements. Also, the way you described, the Agent is not necessarily
part of the package but a payload of the package. Users can download an
Agent via the distribution but is not an active service of the
distribution; for example Metrics is an active service, Agent is not. The
focus of this first email was on active services.
