JBoss Fuse Tooling - Support of Global configurations

posted by Aurélien Pupier on May 23, 2016.

jbtis fuse jbosscentral

Note: This article has been posted also on Red Hat Developers Program blog

As I mentioned in an earlier post, the 8.0.0.Beta2 version of JBoss Fuse Tooling is now available. Apart from the diagram tooling rework, there is yet another new, awaited feature. You can find it in the new “Configurations” editor — designed to manipulate global configurations, i.e. elements defined at the Camel context scope.

A new editor tab is now available to manipulate global configurations.

newConfigurationTab

It currently allows to declare global Endpoints and global Data Formats.

availableGlobalConfiguration

For instance when adding a new Data Format, a dialog allows you to select a specific data format:

globalDataFormat

Then you will be able to edit it from the classic Properties view:

globalDataFormatEditionFromProperties

We have a lot of other global elements that we would like to support, please vote on our JIRA (and/or create your own Feature Request). It will help us to prioritize global configuration element support. You can find already filed JIRA ticket here.

JBoss Tools and Red Hat Developer Studio for Eclipse Mars.2

posted by Alexey Kazakov on Apr 19, 2016.

release jbosstools devstudio jbosscentral

JBoss Tools 4.3.1 and Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 9.1 for Eclipse Mars.2 are now generally available!

jbds9
Java 8 is required for installing and using JBoss Tools. We still support developing and running applications using older Java runtimes. See more in Beta1 blog.

Installation

JBoss Developer Studio comes with everything pre-bundled in its installer. Simply download it from our JBoss Products page and run it like this:

java -jar jboss-devstudio-<installername>.jar

JBoss Tools or Bring-Your-Own-Eclipse (BYOE) JBoss Developer Studio require a bit more:

This release requires at least Eclipse 4.5.2 (Mars.2) but we recommend using the Eclipse 4.5.2 Mars.2 Java EE Bundle since then you get most of the dependencies preinstalled.

Once you have installed Eclipse, you can either find us on the Eclipse Marketplace under "JBoss Tools" or "Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio".

For JBoss Tools, you can also use our update site directly.

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/mars/stable/updates/

There is also a new installer available for 64-bit Windows. See details in New Developer Studio Platform Installer for Container Based Development section.

What is new?

This release is based on Eclipse Mars.2 and our focus was mainly on OpenShift and Red Hat Container Development Kit tools improvements. Besides that there is a bunch of new features and a lot of fixed bugs. The full list of what is new you can find on this page.

New Developer Studio Platform Installer for Container Based Development

A new installer for 64-bit Windows is now available. This installer is quite different from the good old Developer Studio universal installer. This will help you install Developer Studio with a full development environment for container based development using Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift.

Developer Studio Platform Installer Beta currently works on 64-bit Windows only and is available as a Technology Preview.

It helps to install and configure the following components to work together on your machine:

  • Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio

  • Red Hat Container Development Kit

  • Vagrant

  • VirtualBox

  • OpenJDK

  • Cygwin

  • OpenShift Client (OC) Tools

Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio Platform

You can see how this installer works in this short screen cast:

OpenShift 3 and Red Hat Container Development Kit

OpenShift 3 was introduced as a technology preview feature in JBDS 9.0.0.GA. We’re happy to see it graduate to the level of supported feature in this release.

new explorer

New OpenShift Server Adapter for easier and faster deployment, debug mode, integration with Red Hat Container Development Kit and more notable features were added. More than 300 issues and enhancements were also tackled in this version. See the full list of the new OpenShift tooling stuff on New and Noteworthy page.

Docker

Tooling for Docker is available in Eclipse Mars under the Linux tools umbrella. Despite this name, this works on all major developer platforms. It is mirrored on JBoss Tools update site.

docker explorer view

The Docker tools was introduced in Developer Studio 9.0 and has been improved in Developer Studio 9.1:

  • New Docker Machine Support

  • Improved Run Image Launch Configuration

  • TM Terminal Support for Interactive Shells

  • Build Docker Images improvements

More details in New and Noteworthy.

Hibernate 5

Hibernate 5 is now supported. Two new runtime providers for Hibernate were added in this release. Both these new versions can be selected in the relevant wizards.

cfg xml
Figure 1. Hibernate Configuration File Wizard

Forge 3

The included Forge runtime is now 3.0.1.Final. Read the official announcement here.

startup

Automated Error Reporting

With your permission, Eclipse and Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio can now inspect errors logged inside the IDE and inform project committers about the issues you’ve experienced. This optional service, called Automated Error Reporting Initiative (AERI), can report issues to both the Eclipse Bugzilla and the JBoss JIRA.

When the first error is logged, you’ll be asked if you’d like to participate in error reporting, which is by default completely anonymous and only happens if an error occurs.

Should you want to configure how the service operates, or provide your email address so that you could be contacted regarding any reports you submit, open Preferences > General > Error Reporting. You can then click Configure Projects…​ to enable or disable reporting to Eclipse or JBoss.

AERI Reporting Enabled

As always, neither Eclipse nor JBoss will use any information unless a user has opted in, nor is there ever any personal information sent unless it is provided on the Preferences page.

What is Next

Our next stop is a major update for Developer Studio which will be based on Eclipse Neon.

Enjoy!

Beta2 for Eclipse Mars.2

posted by Alexey Kazakov on Feb 02, 2016.

release jbosstools devstudio jbosscentral

The second Beta of JBoss Tools 4.3.1 and JBoss Developer Studio 9.1.0 for our maintenance Mars release is available.

jbosstools jbdevstudio blog header
Remember that since JBoss Tools 4.3.0 we require Java 8 for installing and using of JBoss Tools. We still support developing and running applications using older Java runtimes. See more in Beta1 blog.

What is New?

Full info is at this page. Some highlights are below.

Eclipse Mars.2

JBoss Tools and JBoss Developer Studio are now targeting the latest Eclipse Mars.2 as a running platform with many issues fixed comparing to the previous Mars.1 release.

OpenShift 3

More than 60 issues targeting OpenShift 3 support have been fixed in this release. The OpenShift 3 integration was introduced as a technology preview feature in JBDS 9.0.0.GA but will graduate to a supported feature in the upcoming JBDS 9.1.0.GA release.

Incremental publishing

The OpenShift 3 server adapter now respects the auto-publish settings as declared in the server editor, giving the user the option to automatically publish on workspace changes, build events, or only when the user requests it. The server adapter is also able to incrementally deploy the server’s associated project with a quick call to rsync, ensuring minimal over-the-wire transfers and a fast turnaround for testing your project.

Support for Java EE projects

Experimental support for Java EE projects (Web and EAR) is now available. When the workspace project associated with the OpenShift 3 server is a Dynamic or Enterprise Application project, the server adapter builds an exploded version of the archive to a temporary local directory and replaces the version deployed on the remote OpenShift pod. That Pod Deployment Path, is now inferred automatically from the image stream tags on the remote Pod. A .dodeploy marker file is created for the remote server to redeploy the module if necessary (for EAP/WildFly servers supporting it).

Support for LiveReload

The new tooling includes LiveReload support for OpenShift 3 server adapters. This is accessible from the Show In > Web Browser via LiveReload Server menu. When a file is published to the server adapter, the Browser connected to the LiveReload server instance will automatically refresh.

openshift3 livereload menu

This is particularly effective in conjunction with the Auto Publish mode for the OpenShift 3 server adapters, as all it takes to reload a web resource is saving the file under edition (Ctrl+S, or Cmd+S on Mac).

Simplified OpenShift Explorer view

Previously, the OpenShift 3 resources representation exposed a large amount of unnecessary information about OpenShift. The explorer view is now simplified and specific (and made much more robust) and focuses on an application-centric view.

simplified openshift3 view

Everything that is no longer displayed directly under the OpenShift Explorer is accessible in the Properties view.

Red Hat Container Development Kit server adapter

The Red Hat Container Development Kit (CDK) server adapter now provides menus to quickly access the Docker Explorer and the OpenShift Explorer. Right-click on a running CDK server adapter and select an option in the Show In menu:

cdk server show in menus

Forge Tools

Forge Runtime updated to 3.0.0.Beta3

The included Forge runtime is now 3.0.0.Beta3. Read the official announcement here.

Stack support

Forge now supports choosing a technology stack when creating a project:

stack new project

In addition to setting up your project, choosing a stack automatically hides some input fields in the existing wizards, such as the JPA Version in the JPA: Setup wizard:

What is Next

We are approaching the final release for our first maintenance update for Eclipse Mars.2. It’s time to polish things up and prepare a release candidate.

Enjoy!

Ho Ho Ho…​ Maintenance release for Mars is in Beta!

posted by Alexey Kazakov on Dec 22, 2015.

release jbosstools devstudio jbosscentral

Just in time for Christmas, JBoss Tools 4.3.1.Beta1 and JBoss Developer Studio 9.1.0.Beta1 are ready for download. This is the first beta for our maintenance Mars release.

jbosstools jbdevstudio blog header
Remember that since JBoss Tools 4.3.0 we require Java 8 for installing and using of JBoss Tools. We still support developing and running applications using older Java runtimes. See more in Beta1 blog.

What is New?

Full info is at this page. Some highlights are below.

Docker Tools

Run Image Launch Configuration

When running an image, a launch configuration is created, based on the selected image. This is useful when users want to try tweaking a previous run for various reasons (e.g. binding in new volumes or changing command parameters, etc.)

Running a container from an image can now be also done via a launch configuration.

Run Image Launch Configuration

Docker Machine Support

Docker Machine is now supported for the creation of a new connection. Simply click the "Search…​" button and you will be prompted to select an active Docker Machine connection, if one exists.

Docker Machine Support

TM Terminal Support for Interactive Shells

Containers created with a pseudo TTY allocated (-t) will open within a TM Terminal. This is much more fully featured interaction when compared with the previous standard console. In particular, the Terminal view recognizes the color code on logs and displays messages in appropriate colors.

terminal tm support

Improvements on the Importer wizard

The Import wizard that you can access via File > Import Projects from Folder…​, File > Import…​ > General > Projects from Folder or File > Import…​ > Git > Projects from Git (auto-import) allows more user control. You can now see a proposal for the import (what will be imported and how) and select which sub-projects to import or not.

Performances have also been highly improved, and importing a Maven project will now suggest installation of m2e connectors when necessary.

Credential Framework

A new feature has been added to safely store your credentials for various domains in a central location. As our tools grow, it has become more likely that at least some credentials will be re-used by several different features. Having a central place to store, for example, your Red Hat Access credentials or JBoss.org credentials, for re-use by our server adapters or download-runtime features helps to prevent you from having to constantly type the same usernames and passwords in multiple locations. It also helps to ensure that if you change your password on some remote server, you only need to update one location in eclipse.

Credentials Preference Page

OpenShift 3

More than 80 issues have been fixed in this release of the OpenShift tooling, mostly targetting OpenShift 3 support. OpenShift 3 was introduced as a techpreview feature in JBDS 9.0.0.GA but will graduate to a supported feature in the upcoming JBDS 9.1.0.GA release. More details for all improvements you can find here.

Deploy Workspace Projects

You can now deploy existing workspace projects to OpenShift 3 instances. You can either create a new OpenShift application, using an OpenShift 3 connection and then select the workspace project to deploy, or you can start by right-clicking on a project and use the Configure…​ > Deploy to OpenShift…​ menu.

deploy workspace project

New OpenShift 3 Server Adapter

A prototype for a new OpenShift 3 server adapter is now available. It’s goal is to allow incremental deployment of workspace resources directly into the deployed node on OpenShift, bypassing the whole build step. Its capabilities are currently limited and require a number of manual steps to set it up, but we should streamline its usage in the next Beta. Currently only Node and PHP based applications are supported.

openshift3 new server

OpenShift Explorer Improvements

The explorer is now listening to server side events, so it can automatically refresh itself. A new Edit…​ menu is available in the OpenShift Explorer, allowing you to edit any resource (except Builds) as JSON in a text editor.

edit resources

Search for Docker Images

When deploying a Docker image, searching for a docker image has never been easier, simply click on the Search…​ button and find your favorite image from the the selected Docker registry:

search docker images

Expose Additional Ports from the Docker Image

It is now possible to expose ports to a deployment, other than just those explicitly exposed on the docker image (they still need to be exposed by the image though).

expose service ports

What is Next

We are working on the next Beta build which we are planning to release in January.

Merry Christmas!

Docker Tooling at Devoxx'15

posted by Xavier Coulon on Nov 10, 2015.

docker eclipse jbosscentral

Article was updated on Nov. 12th with the video published on YouTube.

On Monday I had the chance to give a Tools In Action talk about Docker Tooling for Java EE Developers. After a quick introduction about the main concepts of Docker (images, containers, daemon, clients and registries), I gave a demo of the tooling that we’ve been working on in the Linux Tools and JBoss Tools team.

The goal of the demo was to deploy and debug the "HTML5 Kitchen Sink" quick start application from JBoss Central in a container running WildFly and linked to another container running PostgreSQL.

The demo showed how a user can:

  • Connect to a Docker Machine.

  • Pull images from Docker Hub.

  • Build custom images from a Dockerfile (as we needed to customized WildFly to include the PostgreSQL driver and datasource configuration)

  • Run images by configuring environment variables, links to other containers and data volumes.

  • Open a web browser on the published ports.

  • See the container logs streamed in the Eclipse console.

  • Create and configure a server adapter in the Servers View to deploy the application in the container data volume.

As explained during the demo, the Docker tooling is available from the Linux Tools project at Eclipse.org and is also bundled in JBoss Tools and Developer Studio, so you can get it from the update sites or from the marketplace.

Slides for the demo are available on Slidehare.

As Devoxx decided to stop Parleys and publish all talks for free on Youtube just after they were recorded, you can already watch the presentation here:

As usual, feedback on the Docker tooling is much appreciated, so don’t hesitate to contact us on linuxtools-dev@eclipse.org or on jbosstools-dev@jboss.org

Enjoy!
