Hi, Just have the topology configuration code to read from configuraton file in a java project and include a class which contains the main function. Inside the main function, code to build the topology and submit the topology to nimbus .
Also make sure that you deploy the jar inside the storm lib folder and from there, just invoke your main function as part of deployment scripts. Example: [storm-lib]# /storm/bin/storm jar <<your jar file name>>.jar <<package path to the class including the class name containing main function>> <<TopologyConfiguration File Path>> Regards Bishnu From: yuhao [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2014 8:00 AM To: Bishnu Patro Subject: Re: RE: Is it possible to build topology dynamically HI, I thought about implementing it in Java, but stuck in building the topology into a jar which can then be submitted to Nimbus. Given the configuration, I can build the topology by calling addSpout(), addBolt(), and grouping... apis. Then the topology codes should be put into a jar, to do that, these codes need compiled as class files first - but how to get this done in Java in a smart way? ________________________________ Best regards, Hao Yu Center for High-speed Railway Technology, Tsinghua University (CHRT) Addr: 1117 LiuQing Building, Tsinghua University, Beijing, P.R.CHINA, 100084 Fax: 86-10-62788330 Email:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> From: Bishnu Patro<mailto:[email protected]> Date: 2014-12-09 16:44 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>; yuhao<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: Is it possible to build topology dynamically Hi, Yes, it is practical and possible to build topology dynamically. You can create a configuration file containing the details about the spout/bolts, grouping scheme, parallelisms etc. Then you write a program to parse this configuration and use the storm properties to set all the required details and then you can dynamically build the topology and submit it to Nimbus. I have done a similar thing in our project. Where in one can define the topology configuration in the xml file and we read that configuration and build the topology from it.

For example, given some topology configuration which can tell names of spouts and bolts, as well as their parallelisms and how they are connected, the grouping scheme and the like, the program can then parse the configuration, build the topology and submit it to Nimbus. Is this practical? ________________________________ Best regards, Hao Yu Center for High-speed Railway Technology, Tsinghua University (CHRT) Addr: 1117 LiuQing Building, Tsinghua University, Beijing, P.R.CHINA, 100084 Fax: 86-10-62788330 Email:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
