Chapter 4. Develop Eclipse MicroProfile Applications for JBoss EAP

4.1. Maven and the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository

4.1.1. Downloading the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository patch as an archive file

Whenever an Eclipse MicroProfile Expansion Pack is released for JBoss EAP, a corresponding patch is provided for the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository. This patch is provided as an incremental archive file that is extracted into the existing Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository. The incremental archive file does not overwrite or remove any existing files, so there is no rollback requirement.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Open a browser and log in to the Red Hat Customer Portal.
  2. Select Downloads from the menu at the top of the page.
  3. Find the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform entry in the list and select it.
  4. From the Product drop-down list, select JBoss EAP XP.
  5. From the Version drop-down list, select 1.0.0.
  6. Click the Releases tab.
  7. Find JBoss EAP XP 1.0.0 Incremental Maven Repository in the list, and then click Download.
  8. Save the archive file to your local directory.

Additional Resources

4.1.2. Applying the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository patch on your local system

You can install the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository patch on your local file system.

When you apply a patch in the form of an incremental archive file to the repository, new files are added to this repository. The incremental archive file does not overwrite or remove any existing files on the repository, so there is no rollback requirement.

Prerequisites

  • You have downloaded and installed the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository on your local system.

    • Check that you have this minor version of the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3 Maven repository installed on your local system.
  • You have downloaded the JBoss EAP XP 1.0.0 Incremental Maven repository on your local system.

Procedure

  1. Locate the path to your Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository. For example, /path/to/repo/jboss-eap-7.3.0.GA-maven-repository/maven-repository/.
  2. Extract the downloaded JBoss EAP XP 1.0.0 Incremental Maven repository directly into the directory of the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository. For example, open a terminal and issue the following command, replacing the value for your Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository path:

    $ unzip -o jboss-eap-xp-1.0.0-incremental-maven-repository.zip -d EAP_MAVEN_REPOSITORY_PATH
Note

The EAP_MAVEN_REPOSITORY_PATH points to the jboss-eap-7.3.0.GA-maven-repository. For example, this procedure demonstrated the use of the path /path/to/repo/jboss-eap-7.3.0.GA-maven-repository/.

After you extract the JBoss EAP XP Incremental Maven repository into the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository, the repository name becomes JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository.

4.1.3. Supported JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile BOM

JBoss EAP XP 1.0.0 includes the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile BOM. This BOM is named jboss-eap-xp-microprofile, and its use case supports JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile APIs.

Table 4.1. JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile BOM

BOM Artifact IDUse Case

jboss-eap-xp-microprofile

This BOM, whose groupId is org.jboss.bom, packages many JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile supported API dependencies, such as microprofile-openapi-api and microprofile-config-api. If you use this BOM, you need not specify a version for a supported API dependency, because the jboss-eap-xp-microprofile BOM specifies this value for the dependency.

4.1.4. Using the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository

You can access the jboss-eap-xp-microprofile BOM after you install the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3.0.GA Maven repository and apply the JBoss EAP XP Incremental Maven repository to it. The repository name then becomes JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository. The BOM is shipped inside the JBoss EAP XP Incremental Maven repository.

You must configure one of the following to use the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository:

  • The Maven global or user settings
  • The project’s POM files

Maven settings used with a repository manager or repository on a shared server provide better control and manageability of projects.

You can use an alternative mirror to redirect all lookup requests for a specific repository to your repository manager without changing the project files.

Warning

Configuring the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository by modifying the POM file overrides the global and user Maven settings for the configured project.

Prerequisites

  • You have installed the Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.3 Maven repository on your local system, and you have applied the JBoss EAP XP Incremental Maven repository to it.

Procedure

  1. Choose a configuration method and configure the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository.
  2. After you have configured the JBoss EAP Eclipse MicroProfile Maven repository, add the jboss-eap-xp-microprofile BOM to the project POM file. The following example shows how to configure the BOM in the <dependencyManagement> section of the pom.xml file:

    <dependencyManagement>
      <dependencies>
        ...
        <dependency>
          <groupId>org.jboss.bom</groupId>
          <artifactId>jboss-eap-xp-microprofile</artifactId>
          <version>1.0.0.GA</version>
          <type>pom</type>
          <scope>import</scope>
      </dependency>
        ...
      </dependencies>
    </dependencyManagement>
    Note

    If you do not specify a value for the type element in the pom.xml file, Maven specifies a jar value for the element.

Additional Resources

  • For more information about managing dependencies, see Dependency Management.

4.2. Eclipse MicroProfile Config development

4.2.1. Creating a Maven project for Eclipse MicroProfile Config

Create a Maven project with the required dependencies and the directory structure for creating an Eclipse MicroProfile Config application.

Prerequisites

  • Maven is installed.

Procedure

  1. Set up the Maven project.

    $ mvn archetype:generate \
        -DgroupId=com.example \
        -DartifactId=microprofile-config \
        -DinteractiveMode=false \
        -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes \
        -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
    cd microprofile-config

    This creates the directory structure for the project and pom.xml configuration file.

  2. To let the POM file automatically manage the versions for the Eclipse MicroProfile Config artifact and the Eclipse MicroProfile REST Client artifact in the jboss-eap-xp-microprofile BOM, import the BOM to the <dependencyManagement> section of the project POM file.

    <dependencyManagement>
      <dependencies>
        <!-- importing the microprofile BOM adds MicroProfile specs -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.bom</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-eap-xp-microprofile</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.0.GA</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
      </dependencies>
    </dependencyManagement>
  3. Add the Eclipse MicroProfile Config artifact and the Eclipse MicroProfile REST Client artifact and other dependencies, managed by the BOM, to the <dependency> section of the project POM file. The following example demonstrates adding the Eclipse MicroProfile Config and the Eclipse MicroProfile REST Client dependencies to the file:

    <!-- Add the MicroProfile REST Client API. Set provided for the <scope> tag, as the API is included in the server. -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client</groupId>
      <artifactId>microprofile-rest-client-api</artifactId>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!-- Add the MicroProfile Config API. Set provided for the <scope> tag, as the API is included in the server. -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile.config</groupId>
      <artifactId>microprofile-config-api</artifactId>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!-- Add the JAX-RS API. Set provided for the <scope> tag, as the API is included in the server. -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.jboss.spec.javax.ws.rs</groupId>
      <artifactId>jboss-jaxrs-api_2.1_spec</artifactId>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!-- Add the CDI API. Set provided for the <scope> tag, as the API is included in the server. -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>jakarta.enterprise</groupId>
      <artifactId>jakarta.enterprise.cdi-api</artifactId>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

4.2.2. Using MicroProfile Config property in an application

Create an application that uses a configured ConfigSource.

Prerequisites

  • Eclipse MicroProfile Config is enabled in JBoss EAP.
  • The latest POM is installed.
  • The Maven project is configured for creating an Eclipse MicroProfile Config application.

Procedure

  1. Create the directory to store class files:

    $ mkdir -p APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/java/com/example/microprofile/config/

    Where APPLICATION_ROOT is the directory containing the pom.xml configuration file for the application.

  2. Navigate to the new directory:

    $ cd APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/java/com/example/microprofile/config/

    Create all class files described in this procedure in this directory.

  3. Create a class file named HelloApplication.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.config;
    
    import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
    
    @ApplicationPath("/")
    public class HelloApplication extends Application {
    
    }

    This class defines the application as a JAX-RS application.

  4. Create a class file named HelloService.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.config;
    
    public class HelloService {
    	String createHelloMessage(String name){
            return "Hello " + name;
        }
    }
  5. Create a class file named HelloWorld.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.config;
    
    import javax.inject.Inject;
    import javax.ws.rs.GET;
    import javax.ws.rs.Path;
    import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.config.inject.ConfigProperty;
    
    @Path("/config")
    public class HelloWorld {
    
        @Inject
        @ConfigProperty(name="name", defaultValue="jim") 1
        String name;
    
       	@Inject
       	HelloService helloService;
    
       	@GET
       	@Path("/json")
       	@Produces({ "application/json" })
       	public String getHelloWorldJSON() {
            String message = helloService.createHelloMessage(name);
           	return "{\"result\":\"" + message + "\"}";
    	}
    }
    1
    A MicroProfile Config property is injected into the class with the annotation @ConfigProperty(name="name", defaultValue="jim"). If no ConfigSource is configured, the value jim is returned.
  6. Create an empty file named beans.xml in the src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/ directory:

    $ touch APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/beans.xml

    Where APPLICATION_ROOT is the directory containing the pom.xml configuration file for the application.

  7. Navigate to the root directory of the application:

    $ cd APPLICATION_ROOT

    Where APPLICATION_ROOT is the directory containing the pom.xml configuration file for the application.

  8. Build the project:

    $ mvn clean install wildfly:deploy
  9. Test the output:

    $ curl http://localhost:8080/microprofile-config/config/json

    The following is the expected output:

    {"result":"Hello jim"}

4.3. Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance application development

4.3.1. Adding the MicroProfile Fault Tolerance extension

The MicroProfile Fault Tolerance extension is included in standalone-microprofile.xml and standalone-microprofile-ha.xml configurations that are provided as part of JBoss EAP XP.

The extension is not included in the standard standalone.xml configuration. To use the extension, you must manually enable it.

Prerequisites

  • EAP XP pack is installed.

Procedure

  1. Add the MicroProfile Fault Tolerance extension using the following management CLI command:

    /extension=org.wildfly.extension.microprofile.fault-tolerance-smallrye:add
  2. Enable the microprofile-fault-tolerance-smallrye subsystem using the following managenent command:

    /subsystem=microprofile-fault-tolerance-smallrye:add
  3. Reload the server with the following management command:

    reload

4.3.2. Configuring Maven project for Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance

Create a Maven project with the required dependencies and the directory structure for creating an Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance application.

Prerequisites

  • Maven is installed.

Procedure

  1. Set up the Maven project:

    mvn archetype:generate \
        -DgroupId=com.example.microprofile.faulttolerance \
        -DartifactId=microprofile-fault-tolerance \
        -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes \
        -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp \
        -DinteractiveMode=false
    cd microprofile-fault-tolerance

    The command creates the directory structure for the project and the pom.xml configuration file.

  2. To let the POM file automatically manage the versions for the Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance artifact in the jboss-eap-xp-microprofile BOM, import the BOM to the <dependencyManagement> section of the project POM file.

    <dependencyManagement>
      <dependencies>
        <!-- importing the microprofile BOM adds MicroProfile specs -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.bom</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-eap-xp-microprofile</artifactId>
            <version>${version.microprofile.bom}</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
      </dependencies>
    </dependencyManagement>

    Replace ${version.microprofile.bom} with the installed version of BOM.

  3. Add the Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance artifact, managed by the BOM, to the <dependency> section of the project POM file. The following example demonstrates adding the Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance dependency to the file:

    <!-- Add the MicroProfile Fault Tolerance API. Set provided for the <scope> tag, as the API is included in the server. -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile.fault.tolerance</groupId>
      <artifactId>microprofile-fault-tolerance-api</artifactId>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

4.3.3. Creating a fault tolerant application

Create a fault-tolerant application that implements retry, timeout, and fallback patterns for fault tolerance.

Prerequisites

  • Maven dependencies have been configured.

Procedure

  1. Create the directory to store class files:

    $ mkdir -p APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/java/com/example/microprofile/faulttolerance

    APPLICATION_ROOT is the directory containing the pom.xml configuration file for the application.

  2. Navigate to the new directory:

    $ cd APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/java/com/example/microprofile/faulttolerance

    For the following steps, create all class files in the new directory.

  3. Create a simple entity representing a coffee sample as Coffee.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.faulttolerance;
    
    public class Coffee {
    
        public Integer id;
        public String name;
        public String countryOfOrigin;
        public Integer price;
    
        public Coffee() {
        }
    
        public Coffee(Integer id, String name, String countryOfOrigin, Integer price) {
            this.id = id;
            this.name = name;
            this.countryOfOrigin = countryOfOrigin;
            this.price = price;
        }
    }
  4. Create a class file CoffeeApplication.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.faulttolerance;
    
    import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
    
    @ApplicationPath("/")
    public class CoffeeApplication extends Application {
    }
  5. Create a CDI Bean as CoffeeRepositoryService.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.faulttolerance;
    
    import java.util.ArrayList;
    import java.util.Collections;
    import java.util.HashMap;
    import java.util.List;
    import java.util.Map;
    import java.util.stream.Collectors;
    import javax.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped;
    
    @ApplicationScoped
    public class CoffeeRepositoryService {
    
        private Map<Integer, Coffee> coffeeList = new HashMap<>();
    
        public CoffeeRepositoryService() {
            coffeeList.put(1, new Coffee(1, "Fernandez Espresso", "Colombia", 23));
            coffeeList.put(2, new Coffee(2, "La Scala Whole Beans", "Bolivia", 18));
            coffeeList.put(3, new Coffee(3, "Dak Lak Filter", "Vietnam", 25));
        }
    
        public List<Coffee> getAllCoffees() {
            return new ArrayList<>(coffeeList.values());
        }
    
        public Coffee getCoffeeById(Integer id) {
            return coffeeList.get(id);
        }
    
        public List<Coffee> getRecommendations(Integer id) {
            if (id == null) {
                return Collections.emptyList();
            }
            return coffeeList.values().stream()
                    .filter(coffee -> !id.equals(coffee.id))
                    .limit(2)
                    .collect(Collectors.toList());
        }
    }
  6. Create a class file CoffeeResource.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.faulttolerance;
    
    import java.util.List;
    import java.util.Random;
    import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicLong;
    import javax.inject.Inject;
    import javax.ws.rs.GET;
    import javax.ws.rs.Path;
    import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
    import java.util.Collections;

    import org.eclipse.microprofile.faulttolerance.Fallback;
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.faulttolerance.Timeout;
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.faulttolerance.Retry;
    
    @Path("/coffee")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    public class CoffeeResource {
    
        @Inject
        private CoffeeRepositoryService coffeeRepository;
    
        private AtomicLong counter = new AtomicLong(0);
    
        @GET
        @Retry(maxRetries = 4) 1
        public List<Coffee> coffees() {
            final Long invocationNumber = counter.getAndIncrement();
            return coffeeRepository.getAllCoffees();
        }
    
    
        @GET
        @Path("/{id}/recommendations")
        @Timeout(250) 2
        public List<Coffee> recommendations(@PathParam("id") int id) {
                return coffeeRepository.getRecommendations(id);
            }
    
        @GET
        @Path("fallback/{id}/recommendations")
        @Fallback(fallbackMethod = "fallbackRecommendations") 3
        public List<Coffee> recommendations2(@PathParam("id") int id) {
            return coffeeRepository.getRecommendations(id);
            }
    
        public List<Coffee> fallbackRecommendations(int id) {
            //always return a default coffee
            return Collections.singletonList(coffeeRepository.getCoffeeById(1));
        }
    }
    1
    Define number of re-tries to 4.
    2
    Define the timeout interval in milliseconds.
    3
    Define a fallback method to call when invocation fails.
  7. Navigate to the root directory of the application:

    $ cd APPLICATION_ROOT
  8. Build the application using the following Maven command:

    $ mvn clean install wildfly:deploy

    Access the application at http://localhost:8080/microprofile-fault-tolerance/coffee.

4.4. Eclipse MicroProfile Health development

4.4.1. Custom health check example

The default implementation provided by the microprofile-health-smallrye subsystem performs a basic health check. For more detailed information, on either the server or application status, custom health checks may be included. Any CDI beans that include the org.eclipse.microprofile.health.Health annotation at the class level are automatically discovered and invoked at runtime.

The following example demonstrates how to create a new implementation of a health check that returns an UP state.

import org.eclipse.microprofile.health.Health;
import org.eclipse.microprofile.health.HealthCheck;
import org.eclipse.microprofile.health.HealthCheckResponse;

@Health
public class HealthTest implements HealthCheck {

    @Override
    public HealthCheckResponse call() {
        return HealthCheckResponse.named("health-test").up().build();
    }
}

Once deployed, any subsequent health check queries include the custom checks, as demostrated in the following example.

/subsystem=microprofile-health-smallrye:check
{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => {
        "outcome" => "UP",
        "checks" => [{
            "name" => "health-test",
            "state" => "UP"
        }]
    }
}

4.4.2. The @Liveness annotation example

The following is an example of using the @Liveness annotation in an application.

@Liveness
@ApplicationScoped
public class DataHealthCheck implements HealthCheck {

    @Override
    public HealthCheckResponse call() {
        return HealthCheckResponse.named("Health check with data")
            .up()
            .withData("foo", "fooValue")
            .withData("bar", "barValue")
            .build();
    }
}

4.4.3. The @Readiness annotation example

The following example demonstrates checking connection to a database. If the database is down, the readiness check reports error.

@Readiness
@ApplicationScoped
public class DatabaseConnectionHealthCheck implements HealthCheck {

    @Inject
    @ConfigProperty(name = "database.up", defaultValue = "false")
    private boolean databaseUp;

    @Override
    public HealthCheckResponse call() {

        HealthCheckResponseBuilder responseBuilder = HealthCheckResponse.named("Database connection health check");

        try {
            simulateDatabaseConnectionVerification();
            responseBuilder.up();
        } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
            // cannot access the database
            responseBuilder.down()
                .withData("error", e.getMessage()); // pass the exception message
        }

        return responseBuilder.build();
    }

    private void simulateDatabaseConnectionVerification() {
        if (!databaseUp) {
            throw new IllegalStateException("Cannot contact database");
        }
    }
}

4.5. Eclipse MicroProfile JWT application development

4.5.1. Enabling microprofile-jwt-smallrye subsystem

The Eclipse MicroProfile JWT integration is provided by the microprofile-jwt-smallrye subsystem and is included in the default configuration. If the subsystem is not present in the default configuration, you can add it as follows.

Prerequisites

  • EAP XP is installed.

Procedure

  1. Enable the MicroProfile JWT smallrye extension in JBoss EAP:

    /extension=org.wildfly.extension.microprofile.jwt-smallrye:add
  2. Enable the microprofile-jwt-smallrye subsystem:

    /subsystem=microprofile-jwt-smallrye:add
  3. Reload the server:

    reload

The microprofile-jwt-smallrye subsystem is enabled.

4.5.2. Configuring Maven project for developing JWT applications

Create a Maven project with the required dependencies and the directory structure for developing a JWT application.

Prerequisites

  • Maven is installed.
  • microprofile-jwt-smallrye subsystem is enabled.

Procedure

  1. Set up the maven project:

    $ mvn archetype:generate -DinteractiveMode=false \
        -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes \
        -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp \
        -DgroupId=com.example -DartifactId=microprofile-jwt \
        -Dversion=1.0.0.Alpha1-SNAPSHOT
      cd microprofile-jwt

    The command creates the directory structure for the project and the pom.xml configuration file.

  2. To let the POM file automatically manage the versions for the Eclipse MicroProfile JWT artifact in the jboss-eap-xp-microprofile BOM, import the BOM to the <dependencyManagement> section of the project POM file.

    <dependencyManagement>
      <dependencies>
        <!-- importing the microprofile BOM adds MicroProfile specs -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.bom</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-eap-xp-microprofile</artifactId>
            <version>${version.microprofile.bom}</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
      </dependencies>
    </dependencyManagement>

    Replace ${version.microprofile.bom} with the installed version of BOM.

  3. Add the Eclipse MicroProfile JWT artifact, managed by the BOM, to the <dependency> section of the project POM file. The following example demonstrates adding the Eclipse MicroProfile JWT dependency to the file:

    <!-- Add the MicroProfile JWT API. Set provided for the <scope> tag, as the API is included in the server. -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt</groupId>
      <artifactId>microprofile-jwt-auth-api</artifactId>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

4.5.3. Creating an application with Eclipse MicroProfile JWT

Create an application that authenticates requests based on JWT tokens and implements authorization based on the identity of the token bearer.

Note

The following procedure provides code for generating tokens as an example. You should implement your own token generator.

Prerequisites

  • Maven project is configured with the correct dependencies.

Procedure

  1. Create a token generator.

    This step serves as a reference. For a production environment, implement your own token generator.

    1. Create a directory src/test/java for token the generator utility and navigate to it:

      $ mkdir -p src/test/java
      $ cd src/test/java
    2. Create a class file TokenUtil.java with the following content:

      package  com.example.mpjwt;
      
      import java.io.FileInputStream;
      import java.io.InputStream;
      import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
      import java.security.KeyFactory;
      import java.security.PrivateKey;
      import java.security.spec.PKCS8EncodedKeySpec;
      import java.util.Base64;
      import java.util.UUID;
      
      import javax.json.Json;
      import javax.json.JsonArrayBuilder;
      import javax.json.JsonObjectBuilder;
      
      import com.nimbusds.jose.JOSEObjectType;
      import com.nimbusds.jose.JWSAlgorithm;
      import com.nimbusds.jose.JWSHeader;
      import com.nimbusds.jose.JWSObject;
      import com.nimbusds.jose.JWSSigner;
      import com.nimbusds.jose.Payload;
      import com.nimbusds.jose.crypto.RSASSASigner;
      
      public class TokenUtil {
      
          private static PrivateKey loadPrivateKey(final String fileName) throws Exception {
              try (InputStream is = new FileInputStream(fileName)) {
                  byte[] contents = new byte[4096];
                  int length = is.read(contents);
                  String rawKey = new String(contents, 0, length, StandardCharsets.UTF_8)
                          .replaceAll("-----BEGIN (.*)-----", "")
                          .replaceAll("-----END (.*)----", "")
                          .replaceAll("\r\n", "").replaceAll("\n", "").trim();
      
                  PKCS8EncodedKeySpec keySpec = new PKCS8EncodedKeySpec(Base64.getDecoder().decode(rawKey));
                  KeyFactory keyFactory = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
      
                  return keyFactory.generatePrivate(keySpec);
              }
          }
      
          public static String generateJWT(final String principal, final String birthdate, final String...groups) throws Exception {
          	PrivateKey privateKey = loadPrivateKey("private.pem");
      
              JWSSigner signer = new RSASSASigner(privateKey);
              JsonArrayBuilder groupsBuilder = Json.createArrayBuilder();
              for (String group : groups) { groupsBuilder.add(group); }
      
              long currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000;
              JsonObjectBuilder claimsBuilder = Json.createObjectBuilder()
                      .add("sub", principal)
                      .add("upn", principal)
                      .add("iss", "quickstart-jwt-issuer")
                      .add("aud", "jwt-audience")
                      .add("groups", groupsBuilder.build())
                      .add("birthdate", birthdate)
                      .add("jti", UUID.randomUUID().toString())
                      .add("iat", currentTime)
                      .add("exp", currentTime + 14400);
      
              JWSObject jwsObject = new JWSObject(new JWSHeader.Builder(JWSAlgorithm.RS256)
                      .type(new JOSEObjectType("jwt"))
                      .keyID("Test Key").build(),
                      new Payload(claimsBuilder.build().toString()));
      
              jwsObject.sign(signer);
      
              return jwsObject.serialize();
          }
      
          public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
              if (args.length < 2) throw new IllegalArgumentException("Usage TokenUtil {principal} {birthdate} {groups}");
              String principal = args[0];
              String birthdate = args[1];
              String[] groups = new String[args.length - 2];
              System.arraycopy(args, 2, groups, 0, groups.length);
      
              String token = generateJWT(principal, birthdate, groups);
              String[] parts = token.split("\\.");
              System.out.println(String.format("\nJWT Header - %s", new String(Base64.getDecoder().decode(parts[0]), StandardCharsets.UTF_8)));
              System.out.println(String.format("\nJWT Claims - %s", new String(Base64.getDecoder().decode(parts[1]), StandardCharsets.UTF_8)));
              System.out.println(String.format("\nGenerated JWT Token \n%s\n", token));
          }
      }
  2. Create the web.xml file in the src/main/webapp/WEB-INF directory with the following content:

    <context-param>
        <param-name>resteasy.role.based.security</param-name>
        <param-value>true</param-value>
    </context-param>
    
    <security-role>
        <role-name>Subscriber</role-name>
    </security-role>
  3. Create a class file SampleEndPoint.java with the following content:

    package com.example.mpjwt;
    
    import javax.ws.rs.GET;
    import javax.ws.rs.Path;
    
    import java.security.Principal;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.Context;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.SecurityContext;
    
    import javax.annotation.security.RolesAllowed;
    import javax.inject.Inject;
    
    import java.time.LocalDate;
    import java.time.Period;
    import java.util.Optional;
    
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt.Claims;
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt.Claim;
    
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt.JsonWebToken;
    
    @Path("/Sample")
    public class SampleEndPoint {
    
        @GET
        @Path("/helloworld")
        public String helloworld(@Context SecurityContext securityContext) {
            Principal principal = securityContext.getUserPrincipal();
            String caller = principal == null ? "anonymous" : principal.getName();
    
            return "Hello " + caller;
        }
    
        @Inject
    	JsonWebToken jwt;
    
    	@GET()
    	@Path("/subscription")
    	@RolesAllowed({"Subscriber"})
    	public String helloRolesAllowed(@Context SecurityContext ctx) {
        	Principal caller =  ctx.getUserPrincipal();
        	String name = caller == null ? "anonymous" : caller.getName();
        	boolean hasJWT = jwt.getClaimNames() != null;
        	String helloReply = String.format("hello + %s, hasJWT: %s", name, hasJWT);
    
        	return helloReply;
    	}
    
    	@Inject
    	@Claim(standard = Claims.birthdate)
    	Optional<String> birthdate;
    
    	@GET()
    	@Path("/birthday")
    	@RolesAllowed({ "Subscriber" })
    	public String birthday() {
        	if (birthdate.isPresent()) {
            	LocalDate birthdate = LocalDate.parse(this.birthdate.get().toString());
            	LocalDate today = LocalDate.now();
            	LocalDate next = birthdate.withYear(today.getYear());
            	if (today.equals(next)) {
                	return "Happy Birthday";
            }
            if (next.isBefore(today)) {
                next = next.withYear(next.getYear() + 1);
            }
    
            Period wait = today.until(next);
    
            return String.format("%d months and %d days until your next birthday.", wait.getMonths(), wait.getDays());
        }
    
        return "Sorry, we don't know your birthdate.";
    
    	}
    
    }

    The methods annotated with @Path are the JAX-RS endpoints.

    The annotation @Claim defines a JWT claim.

  4. Create a class file App.java to enable JAX-RS:

    package com.example.mpjwt;
    
    import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
    
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.auth.LoginConfig;
    
    @ApplicationPath("/rest")
    @LoginConfig(authMethod="MP-JWT", realmName="MP JWT Realm")
    public class App extends Application {}

    The annotation @LoginConfig(authMethod="MP-JWT", realmName="MP JWT Realm") enables JWT RBAC during deployment.

  5. Compile the application with the following Maven command:

    $ mvn package
  6. Generate JWT token using the token generator utility:

    $ mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=org.wildfly.quickstarts.mpjwt.TokenUtil -Dexec.classpathScope=test -Dexec.args="testUser 2017-09-15 Echoer Subscriber"
  7. Build and deploy the application using the following Maven command:

    $ mvn package wildfly:deploy
  8. Test the application.

    • Call the Sample/subscription endpoint using the bearer token:

      $ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ey..rg" http://localhost:8080/microprofile-jwt/rest/Sample/subscription
    • Call the Sample/birthday endpoint:

      $ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ey..rg" http://localhost:8080/microprofile-jwt/rest/Sample/birthday

4.6. Eclipse MicroProfile Metrics development

4.6.1. Creating an Eclipse MicroProfile Metrics application

Create an application that returns the number of requests made to the application.

Procedure

  1. Create a class file HelloService.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.metrics;
    
    public class HelloService {
        String createHelloMessage(String name){
            return "Hello" + name;
        }
    }
  2. Create a class file HelloWorld.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.metrics;
    
    import javax.inject.Inject;
    import javax.ws.rs.GET;
    import javax.ws.rs.Path;
    import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
    import org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics.annotation.Counted;
    
    @Path("/")
    public class HelloWorld {
    @Inject
        HelloService helloService;
    
    @GET
    @Path("/json")
        @Produces({ "application/json" })
        @Counted(name = "requestCount",
      		 absolute = true,
    description = "Number of times the getHelloWorldJSON was requested")
        public String getHelloWorldJSON() {
            return "{\"result\":\"" + helloService.createHelloMessage("World") + "\"}";
        }
    }
  3. Update the pom.xml file to include the following dependency:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile.metrics</groupId>
        <artifactId>microprofile-metrics-api</artifactId>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>
  4. Build the application using the following Maven command:

    $ mvn clean install wildfly:deploy
  5. Test the metrics:

    1. Issue the following command in the CLI:

      $ curl -v http://localhost:9990/metrics |  grep request_count | grep helloworld-rs-metrics

      Expected output:

      jboss_undertow_request_count_total{deployment="helloworld-rs-metrics.war",servlet="org.jboss.as.quickstarts.rshelloworld.JAXActivator",subdeployment="helloworld-rs-metrics.war",microprofile_scope="vendor"} 0.0
    2. In a browser, navigate to the URL http://localhost:8080/helloworld-rs/rest/json.
    3. Re-Issue the following command in the CLI:

      $ curl -v http://localhost:9990/metrics |  grep request_count | grep helloworld-rs-metrics

      Expected output:

      jboss_undertow_request_count_total{deployment="helloworld-rs-metrics.war",servlet="org.jboss.as.quickstarts.rshelloworld.JAXActivator",subdeployment="helloworld-rs-metrics.war",microprofile_scope="vendor"} 1.0

4.7. Developing an Eclipse MicroProfile OpenAPI application

4.7.1. Enabling Eclipse MicroProfile OpenAPI

The microprofile-openapi-smallrye subsystem is provided in the standalone-microprofile.xml configuration. However, JBoss EAP XP uses the standalone.xml by default. You must include the subsystem in standalone.xml to use it.

Alternatively, you can follow the procedure Updating standalone configurations with Eclipse MicroProfile subsystems and extensions to update the standalone.xml configuration file.

Procedure

  1. Enable the MicroProfile OpenAPI smallrye extension in JBoss EAP:

    /extension=org.wildfly.extension.microprofile.openapi-smallrye:add()
  2. Enable the microprofile-openapi-smallrye subsystem using the following management command:

    /subsystem=microprofile-openapi-smallrye:add()
  3. Reload the server.

    reload

The microprofile-openapi-smallrye subsystem is enabled.

4.7.2. Configuring Maven project for Eclipse MicroProfile OpenAPI

Create a Maven project to set up the dependencies for creating an Eclipse MicroProfile OpenAPI application.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Initialize the project:

    mvn archetype:generate \
         -DgroupId=com.example.microprofile.openapi \
         -DartifactId=microprofile-openapi\
         -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes \
         -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp \
         -DinteractiveMode=false
    cd microprofile-openapi

    The command creates the directory structure for the project and the pom.xml configuration file.

  2. Edit the pom.xml configuration file to contain:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    
    <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Use the pom.xml configuration file and directory structure to create an application.

4.7.3. Creating an Eclipse MicroProfile OpenAPI application

Create an application that returns an OpenAPI v3 document.

Prerequisites

  • Maven project is configured for creating an Eclipse MicroProfile OpenAPI application.

Procedure

  1. Create the directory to store class files:

    $ mkdir -p APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/java/com/example/microprofile/openapi/

    APPLICATION_ROOT is the directory containing the pom.xml configuration file for the application.

  2. Navigate to the new directory:

    $ cd APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/java/com/example/microprofile/openapi/

    All the class files in the following steps must be created in this directory.

  3. Create the class file InventoryApplication.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.openapi;
    
    import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
    
    @ApplicationPath("/inventory")
    public class InventoryApplication extends Application {
    }

    This class serves as the REST endpoint for the application.

  4. Create a class file Fruit.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.openapi;
    
    public class Fruit {
    
        private final String name;
        private final String description;
    
        public Fruit(String name, String description) {
            this.name = name;
            this.description = description;
        }
    
        public String getName() {
            return this.name;
        }
    
        public String getDescription() {
            return this.description;
        }
    }
  5. Create a class file FruitResource.java with the following content:

    package com.example.microprofile.openapi;
    
    import java.util.Collections;
    import java.util.LinkedHashMap;
    import java.util.Set;
    
    import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
    import javax.ws.rs.DELETE;
    import javax.ws.rs.GET;
    import javax.ws.rs.POST;
    import javax.ws.rs.Path;
    import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
    import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
    
    @Path("/fruit")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)

4.7.4. Configuring JBoss EAP to serve a static OpenAPI document

Configure JBoss EAP to serve a static OpenAPI document that describes the REST services for the host.

When JBoss EAP is configured to serve a static OpenAPI document, the static OpenAPI document is processed before any JAX-RS and MicroProfile OpenAPI annotations.

In a production environment, disable annotation processing when serving a static document. Disabling annotation processing ensures that an immutable and versioned API contract is available for clients.

Procedure

  1. Create a directory in the application source tree:

    $ mkdir APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/webapp/META-INF

    APPLICATION_ROOT is the directory containing the pom.xml configuration file for the application.

  2. Query the OpenAPI endpoint, redirecting the output to a file:

    $ curl http://localhost:8080/openapi?format=JSON > src/main/webapp/META-INF/openapi.json

    By default, the endpoint serves a YAML document, format=JSON specifies that a JSON document is returned.

  3. Configure the application to skip annotation scanning when processing the OpenAPI document model:

    $ echo "mp.openapi.scan.disable=true" > APPLICATION_ROOT/src/main/webapp/META-INF/microprofile-config.properties
  4. Rebuild the application:

    $ mvn clean install
  5. Deploy the application again using the following management CLI commands:

    1. Undeploy the application:

      undeploy microprofile-openapi.war
    2. Deploy the application:

      deploy APPLICATION_ROOT/target/microprofile-openapi.war

JBoss EAP now serves a static OpenAPI document at the OpenAPI endpoint.

4.8. Eclipse MicroProfile REST Client development

4.8.1. A comparison between MicroProfile REST client and JAX-RS syntaxes

The MicroProfile REST client enables a version of distributed object communication, which is also implemented in CORBA, Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI), the JBoss Remoting Project, and RESTEasy. For example, consider the resource:

@Path("resource")
public class TestResource {
   @Path("test")
   @GET
   String test() {
      return "test";
   }
 }

The following example demonstrates using the JAX-RS native way to access the TestResource class:

Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient();
String response = client.target("http://localhost:8081/test").request().get(String.class);

However, Microprofile REST client supports a more intuitive syntax by directly calling the test() method as the following example demonstrates:

@Path("resource")
public interface TestResourceIntf {
    @Path("test")
    @GET
    public String test();
}

TestResourceIntf service = RestClientBuilder.newBuilder()
                              .baseUrl(http://localhost:8081/))
                              .build(TestResourceIntf.class);
String s = service.test();

In the preceding example, making calls on the TestResource class becomes much easier with the TestResourceIntf class, as illustrated by the call service.test().

The following example is a more elaborate version of the TestResourceIntf class:

@Path("resource")
public interface TestResourceIntf2 {
   @Path("test/{path}")mes("text/plain")
   @Produces("text/html")
   @POST
   public String test(@PathParam("path") String path, @QueryParam("query") String query, String entity);
}

Calling the service.test("p", "q", "e") method results in an HTTP message as shown in the following example:

POST /resource/test/p/?query=q HTTP/1.1
Accept: text/html
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Length: 1

e

4.8.2. Programmatic registration of providers in MicroProfile REST client

With the MicroProfile REST client, you can configure the client environment by registering providers. For example:

TestResourceIntf service = RestClientBuilder.newBuilder()
                              .baseUrl(http://localhost:8081/))
                              .register(MyClientResponseFilter.class)
                              .register(MyMessageBodyReader.class)
                              .build(TestResourceIntf.class);

4.8.3. Declarative registration of providers in MicroProfile REST client

Use the MicroProfile REST client to register providers declaratively by adding the org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.annotation.RegisterProvider annotation to the target interface, as shown in the following example:

@Path("resource")
@RegisterProvider(MyClientResponseFilter.class)
@RegisterProvider(MyMessageBodyReader.class)
public interface TestResourceIntf2 {
   @Path("test/{path}")
   @Consumes("text/plain")
   @Produces("text/html")
   @POST
   public String test(@PathParam("path") String path, @QueryParam("query") String query, String entity);
}

Declaring the MyClientResponseFilter class and the MyMessageBodyReader class with annotations eliminates the need to call the RestClientBuilder.register() method.

4.8.4. Declarative specification of headers in MicroProfile REST client

You can specify a header for an HTTP request in the following ways:

  • By annotating one of the resource method parameters.
  • By declaratively using the org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.annotation.ClientHeaderParam annotation.

The following example illustrates setting a header by annotating one of the resource method parameters with the annotation @HeaderValue:

@POST
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@Consumes(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
String contentLang(@HeaderParam(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_LANGUAGE) String contentLanguage, String subject);

The following example illustrates setting a header using the org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.annotation.ClientHeaderParam annotation:

@POST
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@Consumes(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@ClientHeaderParam(name=HttpHeaders.CONTENT_LANGUAGE, value="{getLanguage}")
String contentLang(String subject);

default String getLanguage() {
   return ...;
}

4.8.5. Propagation of headers on the server in MicroProfile REST client

An instance of org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.ext.ClientHeadersFactory, if activated, can do a bulk transfer of incoming headers to an outgoing request. The default instance org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.ext.DefaultClientHeadersFactoryImpl returns a map consisting of those incoming headers that are listed in the comma-separated configuration property org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.propagateHeaders.

The following are the rules for instantiating the ClientHeadersFactory interface:

  • A ClientHeadersFactory instance invoked in the context of a JAX-RS request can support injection of fields and methods annotated with @Context.
  • A ClientHeadersFactory instance that is managed by CDI must use the appropriate CDI-managed instance. It must also support the @Inject injection.

The org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.ext.ClientHeadersFactory interface is defined as follows:

public interface ClientHeadersFactory {

/**
 * Updates the HTTP headers to send to the remote service. Note that providers
 * on the outbound processing chain could further update the headers.
 *
 * @param incomingHeaders - the map of headers from the inbound JAX-RS request. This will
 * be an empty map if the associated client interface is not part of a JAX-RS request.
 * @param clientOutgoingHeaders - the read-only map of header parameters specified on the
 * client interface.
 * @return a map of HTTP headers to merge with the clientOutgoingHeaders to be sent to
 * the remote service.
 */
MultivaluedMap<String, String> update(MultivaluedMap<String, String> incomingHeaders,
                                      MultivaluedMap<String, String> clientOutgoingHeaders);
}

4.8.6. ResponseExceptionMapper in MicroProfile REST client

The org.eclipse.microprofile.rest.client.ext.ResponseExceptionMapper class is the client-side inverse of the javax.ws.rs.ext.ExceptionMapper class, which is defined in JAX-RS. The ExceptionMapper.toResponse() method turns an Exception class thrown during the server-side processing into a Response class. The ResponseExceptionMapper.toThrowable() method turns a Response class received on the client-side with an HTTP error status into an Exception class.

You can register the ResponseExceptionMapper class either programmatically or declaratively. In the absence of a registered ResponseExceptionMapper class, a default ResponseExceptionMapper class maps any response with status >= 400 to a WebApplicationException class.

4.8.7. Context dependency injection with MicroProfile REST client

In MicroProfile REST client, you must annotate any interface that is managed as a CDI bean with the @RegisterRestClient class. For example:

@Path("resource")
@RegisterProvider(MyClientResponseFilter.class)
public static class TestResourceImpl {
      @Inject TestDataBase db;

      @Path("test/{path}")
      @Consumes("text/plain")
      @Produces("text/html")
      @POST
      public String test(@PathParam("path") String path, @QueryParam("query")
      String query, String entity) {
         return db.getByName(query);
      }
   }
   @Path("database")
   @RegisterRestClient
   public interface TestDataBase {

      @Path("")
      @POST
      public String getByName(String name);
   }

Here, the MicroProfile REST client implementation creates a client for a TestDataBase class service, allowing easy access by the TestResourceImpl class. However, it does not include the information about the path to the TestDataBase class implementation. This information can be supplied by the optional @RegisterProvider parameter baseUri:

@Path("database")
@RegisterRestClient(baseUri="https://localhost:8080/webapp")
public interface TestDataBase {
   @Path("")
   @POST
   public String getByName(String name);
}

This indicates that you can access the implementation of TestDataBase at https://localhost:8080/webapp. You can also supply the information externally with the following system variable:

<fully qualified name of TestDataBase>/mp-rest/url=<URL>

For example, the following command indicates that you can access an implementation of the com.bluemonkeydiamond.TestDatabase class at https://localhost:8080/webapp:

com.bluemonkeydiamond.TestDatabase/mp-rest/url=https://localhost:8080/webapp
