-----------------------------------------
[~ocean], are you still wanting this feature?
> In-memory Mode for Embedded Server
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: ARTEMIS-1404
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-1404
> Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Broker
> Reporter: ocean
> Priority: Major
>
> Problem
> We have several tests where we launch and use an embedded Artemis broker. In
> order to make these tests faster we would like to run Artemis in a
> "in-memory" mode where it writes no files to disk. The goal would be to start
> a new broker, use it, and then shut it down without ever having written
> anything to disk.
> Proposed Solution
> Based on my own internal research the easiest way to accomplish this would be
> for Artemis to move to using the Java7 Path API [1] for interacting with the
> disk. Then we could plug in jimfs [2] (an in-memory FileSystem provider) and
> get the completely in-memory mode. The problem is that even when disabling
> persistence Artemis still requires a java.io.File to specify its broker
> directory:
> {code:java}
> ConfigurationImpl config = new ConfigurationImpl();
> config.setPersistenceEnabled(false);
> config.setBrokerInstance(new File("target/bus/artemis"));
> {code}
> If we could change this to take a Path instead of a File we would get
> complete in-memory mode.
