    Config

    Spring Cloud Configuration service is provided.

    Run the service in command line in folder jws/jws-config/

    jws-config-service.exe --install
    jws-config-service.exe --start (on Windows in administrator's terminal)

    jws-config-service start(on Linux)

    or

    run-jws-config.exe (on Windows)

    run-jws-config(on Linux)

    You can set up various timeouts in JChem MicroServices. We use the Spring Cloud Stack with solutions from Netflix. Ribbon load balancer is responsible for the communication between the services. You can set up its timeout settings with the ribbon prefix, like: ribbon.ReadTimeout. This property controls when to interrupt waiting for an answer between Chemaxon services. You can also setup a guard with Hystrix circuit breaker with properties like: execution.isolation.thread.timeoutInMilliseconds which will interrupt your request if it does not get an answer during the timeout.

    Configuration using table instead of the common-config/application.properties file How to use JWS-CONFIG with JDBC backend.

    • Copy the right JDBC driver to 'extra-libs' folder.

    • In jws-config/config/application.properties set the followings:

    spring.profiles.active=jdbc
    
    spring.datasource.url=<jdbc url>
    
    spring.datasource.driver-class-name=<jdbc driver class name>
    
    spring.datasource.username=<username of jdbc connection>
    
    spring.datasource.password=<password of jdbc connection>

    more on Spring data source settings: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/appendix-application-properties.html#data-properties

    This setting will only work if you have a table, called: PROPERTIES with this 5 text fields (these fields can be any text fields):

    • APPLICATION

    • PROFILE

    • LABEL

    • KEY

    • VALUE

    example properties table creation SQL:

     CREATE TABLE PROPERTIES (
    
     APPLICATION VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT 'application',
    
     PROFILE VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT 'default',
    
     LABEL VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT 'master',KEY VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,VALUE CLOB);

    It is possible to use a different table than properties. In this case you have to set the QUERY to get key-value pairs, like:

    spring.cloud.config.server.jdbc.sql=SELECT MY_PROPS.K AS KEY, MY_PROPS.V AS VALUE FROM MY_PROPS WHERE APP=? AND PROF=? and LBL=?

    What are the defaults in the example SQL?

    Spring Cloud Config is designed to provide properties from git repositories. This database schema mimics that. In the git repository all application can have their own settings in their application_name.properties file, or common properties can be in application.properties file. The default value 'application' in the APPLICATION column means it is "found" in application.properties file so it is distributed to all applications.

    Every properties file can be linked to a specific profile, like: production, development, aws, etc. and their settings are only taken into account if their profile is active. The default value 'default' in PROFILE column means this setting is not paired to any specific profile name, but to the default profile.

    Since in the original concept the configuration distribution is solved by git repositories, all files are also part of a git branch. The branch currently checked out is represented in the LABEL column, with default value 'master' it is mimicking to be part of the master branch. Here basically any value different from NULL is acceptable.

    In the KEY column the keys should be set with the Properties syntax, so a simple property, like:

    a.b.c=value

    should be a.b.c

    so for

    {yml}

    users:

    a:
    
     b:
    
     c: value

    it is also transleted to a.b.c;

    Example with lists:

    properties:

    prop.path.list[0].a_key=a0_value
    
    prop.path.list[0].b_key=b0_value
    
    prop.path.list[1].a_key=a1_value
    
    prop.path.list[1].b_key=b1_value

    yml:

    prop:
    
     path:
    
     list:
    
     - a_key: a0_value
    
     b_key: b0_value
    
     - a_key: a1_value
    
     b_key: b1_value
    

    would translate to this insert sql (if the defaults are as in the example table creation SQL):

     INSERT INTO PROPERTIES (KEY, VALUE) VALUES ('prop.path.list[0].a_key', 'a0_value'), ('prop.path.list[0].b_key', 'b0_value'), ('prop.path.list[1].a_key', 'a1_value'), ('prop.path.list[1].b_key', 'b1_value');

    Message limitations in Gateway

    Our Gateway is a simple Zuul Proxy (https://github.com/Netflix/zuul), developed by Netflix. By default it has a smart algorithm to retry failed requests on different backend instances. For this it keeps each request in memory until it is answered successfully or it cannot be retried on any other servers. This leads us to a limitation where the sent message is kept in memory so if we want to send lots of data at once (like indexing a large batch of molecules), we have to grant enough memory for Zuul to keep our whole request in memory during the process. You can set Gateway's maximum memory as any Java process in the appropriate .vmoptions file. (If you execute the service with jws-gateway-servcie, then use jws-gateway-service.vmoptions; if you execute the service with run-jws-gateway, then use run-jws-gateway.vmoptions.) The default setting is -Xmx256m, which means maximum 256 MB memory.

    To protect Gateway from overloading its memory, we have introduced a filter to reject every message where Content-Length header is greater than 1/3 of the available maximum memory. With default memory settings this will lead you to reject every request with body greater than 85 MB.

    You can also specify directly how many bytes do you allow in a request. For this set gateway.max-message-size=<number_of_bytes_to_allow> to the number of bytes you want to allow in a request. (Set this as any other property in Config server.)

    If a request is too large, then a HTTP 413 error will be returned by the Gateway server.
