Hi
Hi,
I wrote a soap monitoring tool for cxf and I'd like to make it open
source. I'd like to know if it could be included in cxf package since I
think it could be useful to other cxf users.
Basically it's just two soap interceptors that store requests,
responses
and some more data in a database.
Additional data is the service name, the operation name, the exception
type and the stacktrace if the response is a fault, the response time,
the status, the user agent, the encoding, http headers, etc.
It also provides a mechanism so users can store their own additional
data if they need to.
What is your opinion about contributing some of this code to the
rt/management module ?
Cyrille and other experts can help. The rt/management conrtains a
management featire which
can be used to monitor both SOAP and
RESTful services. And it looks like it can do most of what you've
described above but perhaps
you can help enhancing it for it to
match what your interceptors can do ?
The cxf console comes with 3 maven modules :
- cxf-soap-console-dao : used for CRUD operation in database, use
iBatis. MySQL is supported, I'll add Oracle and Postgres support soon
since I need it, I might also add derby support.
- cxf-soap-console-interceptors : the soap interceptors that users need
to add to their webservices. They are basically extended versions of
LoggingInterceptors from cxf.
- cxf-soap-console-webapp : a webapp to show data stored by the
interceptors (see attached screenshots)
It is still in an alpha stage, here are some planned features ;
- statistics by service
- statistics by operation
- jfreechart inclusion in the webapp
- a search form
- make it a cxf feature
This is quite interesting. You may've seen we've discussed the
possibility of introducing
a rt/management-web module which will
initially contain :
- atom based pull/push logging support for individual jaxrs/jaxrs
endpoints (thsi code is
currently in CXF JAX-RS) with the eventual
possibility to subscribe or register callback URIs from CXF /services
page
- CXF JAX-RS based endpoint for showing JMX-based data over HTTP for
all CXF endpoints and
providing more advanced management
capabilities over time
I hope this component will eventually turn CXF itself into a
well-featured Web application
on its own. We'll need to complete some
intial support for the Atom pull logging stuff (nearly there) and then
I will do the move.
It looks like what you've done may be eventually added to this new CXF
module. Others may
have a different opinion though...
cheers, Sergey
I've attached the source code, some screenshots, and the ddl script to
create the database. Maven should generate a war deployable in tomcat,
mvn eclipse:eclipse will generate the eclipse projects. The datasource
must be named jdbc/cxf/console.
Has this any chance to be included in cxf or should I create a separate
project on google code/sourceforge ?
