A Very Brief Introduction to Java Business Integration

The Java Business Integration (JBI) spec provides a standards-based,

...

service-oriented

...

approach

...

to

...

application

...

integration

...

through

...

the

...

use

...

of

...

an

...

abstract

...

messaging

...

model,

...

without

...

reference

...

to

...

a

...

particular

...

protocol

...

or

...

wire

...

encoding.

...

JBI

...

introduces

...

the

...

concepts

...

of

...

Binding

...

Components

...

(BCs),

...

Service

...

Engines

...

(SEs)

...

to

...

Service

...

Units

...

(SUs)

...

and

...

Service

...

Assemblies

...

(SAs)

...

to

...

define

...

an

...

architecture

...

for

...

vendor-neutral

...

pluggable

...

components.

...

The

...

purpose

...

of

...

this

...

architecture

...

is

...

to

...

provide

...

standards-based

...

interoperability

...

amongst

...

components/services.

...

JBI

...

components

...

are

...

can

...

be

...

thought

...

of

...

as

...

the

...

smallest

...

applications

...

or

...

services

...

accessible

...

in

...

a

...

service-oriented

...

architecture.

...

Each

...

service

...

has

...

a

...

very

...

specific

...

purpose

...

and

...

therefore

...

a

...

narrow

...

scope

...

and

...

set

...

of

...

functionality.

...

Components

...

come

...

in

...

two

...

flavors:

...

Service

...

Engines

...

(SE)

...

and

...

Binding

...

Components

...

(BC).

...

SUs

...

must

...

be

...

packaged

...

into

...

a

...

SA

...

to

...

be

...

deployed

...

to

...

the

...

JBI

...

container.

...

An

...

SA

...

is

...

a

...

complete

...

application

...

consisting

...

of

...

one

...

or

...

more

...

services.

...

By

...

comparison,

...

this

...

is

...

similar

...

to

...

the

...

way

...

that

...

WAR

...

files

...

must

...

be

...

packaged

...

inside

...

of

...

an

...

EAR

...

file

...

to

...

be

...

deployed

...

to

...

a

...

J2EE

...

container.

...

See

...

also

...

the

...

page

...

providing

...

information

...

on

...

working

...

with

...

service units

Below are some quick definitions the are dominant throughout the JBI spec:

  • Component Architecture
    • Binding Components - Components that provide or consume services via some sort of communications protocol or other remoting technology
    • Service Engines - Components that supply or consume services locally (within the JBI container)
Note

The difference between binding components (BCs) and service engines (SEs) is definitely subtle and is not denoted by the JBI APIs. In fact, the only real true difference between the two is in the jbi.xml descriptor in the packaging. What it really boils down to is the fact that BCs are used to do integration with a service outside the bus and SEs are services that are deployed to and solely contained within the bus. Hopefully the JBI 2.0 spec will provide more distinction.

  • Component Packaging
    • Service Units - Packaging for an individual service that allows deployment to the JBI container; similar to a WAR file from J2EE
    • Service Assemblies - Packaging for groups of SUs for deployment to the JBI container; similar to an EAR file from J2EE

This tutorial focuses on both component architecture and component packaging. For further information and details on JBI, see the following:

Now let's move on to creating the Maven projects for the Hello World binding component.

Creating a Maven Project For the JBI BC

The focus of this section is on the creation of a JBI binding component. For this task, a Maven archetype will be used to create a Maven project skeleton to house the component. Maven archetypes are templates for Maven projects that jumpstart project creation via the automation of repetitive tasks by following standard conventions. The result of using an archetype to create a Maven project is a directory structure, a Maven POM file and, depending on the archetype being used, sometimes Java objects and JUnit tests.

Below are the steps to follow for creating the directory structure and project. All instructions are laid out to take place on a Unix command-line.

1) Create a directory named hello-world-smx and switch to that directory:

Code Block
 units|http://incubator.apache.org/servicemix/main/working-with-service-units.html]

Below are some quick definitions the are dominant throughout the JBI spec: 

* *Component Architecture*
** *Binding Components* - Components that provide or consume services via some sort of communications protocol or other remoting technology 
** *Service Engines* - Components that supply or consume services locally (within the JBI container) 

{note}
The difference between binding components (BCs) and service engines (SEs) is definitely subtle and is not denoted by the JBI APIs. In fact, the only real true difference between the two is in the {{jbi.xml}} descriptor in the packaging. What it really boils down to is the fact that BCs are used to do integration with a service outside the bus and SEs are services that are deployed to and solely contained within the bus. Hopefully the JBI 2.0 spec will provide more distinction. 
{note}

* *Component Packaging*
** *Service Units* - Packaging for an individual service that allows deployment to the JBI container; similar to a WAR file from J2EE 
** *Service Assemblies* - Packaging for groups of SUs for deployment to the JBI container; similar to an EAR file from J2EE 

This tutorial focuses on both component architecture and component packaging. For further information and details on JBI, see the following: 

* The [JBI spec|http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=208]
* The [JBI|5. JBI] section of the [User's Guide] 
* The [JBIforSOI|https://open-esb.dev.java.net/public/whitepapers/JBIforSOI.pdf] article 
* The [ServiceMix as an enterprise service bus|http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2005/jw-1212-esb.html] JavaWorld article 

Now let's move on to creating the Maven projects for the Hello World binding component. 

h2. Creating a Maven Project For the JBI BC 

The focus of this section is on the creation of a JBI binding component. For this task, a [Maven archetype|http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-archetypes.html] will be used to create a Maven project skeleton to house the component. Maven archetypes are templates for Maven projects that jumpstart project creation via the automation of repetitive tasks by following standard conventions. The result of using an archetype to create a Maven project is a directory structure, a [Maven POM|http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-pom.html] file and, depending on the archetype being used, sometimes Java objects and JUnit tests. 

Below are the steps to follow for creating the directory structure and project. All instructions are laid out to take place on a Unix command-line. 

1) Create a directory named {{hello-world-smx}} and switch to that directory: 

{code}
$ mkdir hello-world-smx
$ cd hello-world-smx
{code}

2)

...

Use

...

the

...

servicemix-service-engine Maven archetype to generate a Maven project for the component.

To create a SE, execute the following command on the command-line:

Panel

$ mvn archetype:create \

\


-DarchetypeArtifactId=servicemix-binding-component

\


-DarchetypeVersion=3.1-incubating-SNAPSHOT

\


-DgroupId=org.apache.servicemix.samples.helloworld.bc

the

is

This

successfully.

...

Now

...

we

...

just

...

need

...

to

...

add

...

some

...

custom

...

functionality.

...

Creating the JBI Component

Before we create any custom functionality, let's

...

first

...

examine

...

some

...

of

...

the

...

items

...

generated

...

by

...

the

...

servicemix-service-engine

...

Maven

...

archetype

...

in

...

this

...

simple

...

component

...

we're

...

developing.

...

These

...

classes

...

extend

...

class

...

from

...

either

...

the

...

JBI

...

spec

...

APIs or from the servicemix-common package.

  • pom.xml - This is the Maven POM] file. This XML file contains all the metadata related to the project so Maven can carry out its functionality.

...

  • which

...

  • is

...

  • called

...

  • by

...

  • the

...

  • JBI

...

  • container

...

  • as

...

  • part

...

  • of

...

  • the

...

  • component

...

  • lifecycle

...

  • (i.e.g,

...

  • when

...

  • the

...

  • component

...

  • is

...

  • installed

...

  • and

...

  • uninstalled).

...

  • This

...

  • is

...

  • where

...

  • you

...

  • place

...

  • logic

...

  • to

...

  • set

...

  • up

...

  • and

...

  • tear

...

  • down

...

  • things

...

  • when

...

  • the

...

  • component

...

  • is

...

  • started

...

  • and

...

  • stopped.

...

  • MyComponent.java

...

  • -

...

  • Extends

...

  • the

...

  • DefaultComponent, a convenience class that makes creating JBI components much easier and provides some additional lifecycle management of components deployed to the JBI container. This class should be fleshed out by overriding methods in the DefaultComponent to configure and initialize the component.
  • MyConsumerEndpoint.java - Extends ConsumerEndpoint and implements MyEndpointType. If you'd like to create a BC that fulfills the consumer role, implement the process() method in this class.
  • MyEndpointType.java - This class is simply an interface marker for Apache XBean so it can generate an XML schema document.
  • MyProviderEndpoint.java - Extends ProviderEndpoint and implements MyEndpointType. If you'd like to create a BC that fulfills the provider role, depending on the MEP being supported, implement the processInOnly() method or the processInOut() method in this class.
  • MySpringComponentTest.java - A simple JUnit test class that extends a helper class to make configuring ServiceMix very easy.
  • src/test/resources/spring.xml

...

  • -

...

  • The

...

  • very

...

  • simple

...

  • and

...

  • generic

...

  • ServiceMix

...

  • configuration

...

  • file.

...

Now

...

that

...

we've

...

gotten

...

a

...

bird's

...

eye

...

view

...

of

...

what

...

we're

...

working

...

with,

...

let's

...

proceed

...

to

...

adding

...

the

...

custom

...

functionality.

...

Adding Custom Functionality

Before creating custom functionality for the BC, you need to understand the role of a JBI BC. A BC is simply a binding to a service that is external to the JBI normalized message router (NMR) using some type of communications protocol (e.g.,

...

FTP,

...

HTTP,

...

JMS,

...

etc.).

...

It's

...

also

...

the

...

responsibility

...

of

...

the

...

BC

...

to

...

handle

...

any

...

conversion

...

of

...

the

...

message

...

format

...

into

...

Normalized

...

Messages

...

that

...

can

...

be

...

sent

...

along

...

to

...

the

...

NMR.

...

This

...

is

...

known

...

as

...

message

...

normalization.

...

For

...

example,

...

if

...

we

...

were

...

to

...

create

...

a

...

BC

...

that

...

uses

...

SNMP

...

as

...

the

...

application

...

layer

...

protocol,

...

the

...

SNMP

...

RFC

...

specifies

...

the

...

message

...

format

...

to

...

be

...

used

...

with

...

particular

...

versions

...

of

...

SNMP.

...

It

...

would

...

be

...

the

...

responsibility

...

of

...

the

...

BC

...

to

...

handle

...

not

...

only

...

the

...

communication

...

via

...

the

...

SNMP

...

protocol

...

but

...

also

...

to

...

handling

...

the

...

marshalling

...

of

...

SNMP

...

messages

...

to/from

...

JBI

...

normalized

...

messages.

...

The

...

BC

...

would

...

simply

...

be

...

a

...

binding

...

to

...

a

...

service

...

external

...

to

...

the

...

NMR

...

that

...

speaks

...

SNMP

...

messages

...

via

...

the

...

SNMP

...

protocol.

...

More

...

on

...

this

...

later

...

in

...

the

...

tutorial.

...

For

...

now,

...

let's

...

proceed

...

with

...

the

...

custom

...

functionality.

Note
titleUsing an IDE

It is at this stage that you should employ the use of an IDE. An IDE can dramatically reduce the work necessary to import clases, override methods and so much more. Because Maven can generate project files for Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA, either one can be used. Throughout this tutorial, Eclipse will be used. To generate project files for Eclipse, execute the Maven eclipse:eclipse goal and then import the project into your Eclipse IDE.

The creation of a binding component is dependent upon the role that it will play. BCs are consumers, providers or both. Below are definitions of the two roles as they pertain to BCs:

  • Consumer - A consumer BC receives requests from an external service and publishes those requests to the NMR.
  • Provider - A provider BC receives requests from the NMR and publishes those requests to an external service.

This is why both the MyConsumerEndpoint.java and the MyProviderEndpoint.java exist when using the servicemix-binding-component archetype to create a Maven project for a SU. This way the BC that you're creating can play both the consumer role and the provider role. For the sake of this tutorial, we will create implement both roles.

First let's implement the consumer functionality. To do so, open MyConsumerEndpoint.java and let's take a look at he process() method as shown below:

Code Block

public void process(MessageExchange exchange) throws Exception {
    // TODO: As we act as a consumer (we just send JBI exchanges)
    // we will receive responses or DONE / ERROR status here
}

One important item of note before we get started is that this tutorial will not be accessing any services external to the JBI container. The reason for this is that setting up a service external to the JBI container would dramatically increase the complexity of this tutorial. Instead, we will just simulate such functionality by hard-coding some text to be returned.

This method is just a stub that needs to be filled in with our custom functionality. Take note of the comment in that method stub stating that this method will send JBI message exchanges and will receive responses or status messages in this method. Based on these comments, we know that we have a few tasks to handle in the implementation of this method. So let's get started.

Below is the method body that can be copied and pasted into the method stub to being adding some custom functionality. Following the display of this method, we will pick apart this method a bit to explain the various pieces of logic:

public void process(MessageExchange exchange) throws Exception {
    // TODO: As we act as a consumer (we just send JBI exchanges)
    // we will receive responses or DONE / ERROR status here
	
	// The component acts as a consumer, this means this exchange is received because
    // we sent it to another component.  As it is active, this is either an out or a fault
    // If this component does not create / send exchanges, you may just throw an UnsupportedOperationException
    if (exchange.getRole() == MessageExchange.Role.CONSUMER) {


    // The component acts as a consumer, this means this exchange is received because
    // we sent it to another component.  As it is active, this is either an out or a fault
    // If this component does not create / send exchanges, you may just throw an UnsupportedOperationException
    if (exchange.getRole() == MessageExchange.Role.CONSUMER) {
        // Exchange is finished
        if (exchange.getStatus() == ExchangeStatus.DONE) {
            return;
        // Exchange has been aborted with an exception
        } else if (exchange.getStatus() == ExchangeStatus.ERROR) {
            return;
        // Exchange is active
        } else {
            // Out message
            if (exchange.getMessage("out") != null) {
                // TODO ... handle the response
                exchange.setStatus(ExchangeStatus.DONE);
                getChannel().send(exchange);
            // Fault message
            } else if (exchange.getFault() != null) {
                // Exchange is finished
 TODO ... handle the fault
               if (exchange.getStatussetStatus() == ExchangeStatus.DONE) {
;
                returngetChannel().send(exchange);
            // ExchangeThis hasis beennot abortedcompliant with the andefault exceptionMEPs
            } else if (exchange.getStatus() == ExchangeStatus.ERROR) {
            return;
 {
                throw new IllegalStateException("Consumer exchange is ACTIVE, but no out or fault is provided");
         // Exchange is active}
        } else {
    // Unknown role
    } else //{
 Out message
      throw new IllegalStateException("Unkown role: "  if+ (exchange.getMessagegetRole("out") != null) {);
                // TODO ... handle the response}
}

The method above takes into account a number of conditions, so let's go through it all. The first thing to note is that this method will only handle the consumer role. This can be seen the outermost condition as displayed below:

Code Block

if (exchange.getRole() == MessageExchange.Role.CONSUMER) {
...
} else {
    throw new IllegalStateException("Unkown role: " + exchange.getRole());
}

If a request comes through for the provider role, an exception will be thrown. Next, the status of the message exchange is checked to make sure it is not an error or a completed situation:

Code Block

if (exchange.getStatus() ==       exchange.setStatus(ExchangeStatus.DONE); {
    return;
// Exchange has been   aborted with an exception
} else if getChannel()exchange.sendgetStatus(exchange);
 == ExchangeStatus.ERROR) {
    return;

The exchange status comes directly from the JBI spec and can one of either ACTIVE, DONE or ERROR. As long a the status is ACTIVE the method proceeds on with the custom functionality. This is shown below but we have not implemented any custom logic yet:

Code Block

} else {
    // FaultOut message
            } else if (exchange.getFaultgetMessage("out") != null) {
                // TODO ... handle the fault
         response
        exchange.setStatus(ExchangeStatus.DONE);
                getChannel().send(exchange);
            // This is not compliant with the default MEPsFault message
    } else if (exchange.getFault() !=    } else null) {
        // TODO ... handle the fault
   throw new IllegalStateException("Consumer exchange is ACTIVE, but no out or fault is provided" exchange.setStatus(ExchangeStatus.DONE);
            }getChannel().send(exchange);
    // This is not }
compliant with   // Unknown rolethe default MEPs
    } else {
        throw new IllegalStateException("Unkown role: " + exchange.getRole()Consumer exchange is ACTIVE, but no out or fault is provided");
    }
}
{code}

This is a work in progress. I will finish this up very soon.

Testing the Hello World Binding Component

Thanks to the archetype, testing the component is very easy because it already created a test. The only change we'll make is to the string being sent by the client code. In the src/test/java directory is the org.apache.servicemix.samples.helloworld.bc.MySpringComponentTest

...

test.

...

Simply

...

open

...

this

...

test

...

and

...

change

...

line

...

#36

...

from

...

this:

Code Block
 

{code}
me.getInMessage().setContent(new StringSource("<hello>world</hello>"));
{code}

to

...

something

...

more

...

meaningful,

...

like

...

this:

Code Block
 

{code}
me.getInMessage().setContent(new StringSource("<hello>Ski Colorado!</hello>"));
{code}

To

...

execute

...

the

...

test,

...

simply

...

run

...

the

...

Maven

...

install

...

goal

...

from

...

within

...

the

...

hello-world-bc-su

...

directory

...

like

...

so:

Code Block
 

{code}
$ mvn install 
{code}

Below

that

will

print

Wiki Markup
Notice that not only do we see that the build was successful, but also note the text in the output above that was printed by the test (*<hello>Hello World! Message \[<hello>Ski Colorado!</hello>\] contains \[28\] bytes.</hello>*). This is the message we were expecting to be output from the test. So if you see this, you just wrote a JBI component and tested it successfully. Now this SU needs to be wrapped in a SA so it can be deployed to the JBI container.

Now that we have a project for the SA, we need to edit the POM so that the project depends upon the JBI component we created above. This can be done by editing the POM for the SA to add a dependency upon the hello-world-bc-su

...

as

...

listed

...

below:

Code Block
 

{code}
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.servicemix.samples.helloworld.bc</groupId>
  <artifactId>hello-world-bc-su</artifactId>
  <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
{code}

Upon

...

adding

...

this

...

dependency

...

to

...

the

...

POM,

...

build

...

the

...

project

...

using

the

command

Incorporating the Projects Into a Top Level POM

Now that we have created the SU and SA projects, a top level pom.xml must be manually created and made aware of each subproject.

As long as you see the BUILD SUCCESSFUL message in the output continue to the next section to give each project a unique name.

Give Each of the Maven Subprojects a Name

Notice in the output above that there are a two projects named A custom project. This is because the archetypes create projects with this generic name. Let's give each project a unique name via each component's pom.xml file. This name will allow Maven's output to denote a component's name in its output making our development work a bit easier. To name each project, simply edit each pom.xml and replace <name>A custom project</name> with an appropriate name. Below are the instructions for naming each component's project:

  • Edit hello-world-sa/pom.xml

...

  • and

...

  • replace

...

  • <name>A

...

  • custom

...

  • project</name>

...

  • with

...

  • <name>Hello

...

  • World

...

  • Service

...

  • Assembly</name>

...

  • Edit hello-world-bc-su/pom.xml

...

  • and

...

  • replace

...

  • <name>A

...

  • custom

...

  • project</name>

...

  • with

...

  • <name>Hello

...

  • World

...

  • BC

...

  • Service

...

  • Unit</name>

...

Now

...

when

...

the

...

projects

...

are

...

built

...

you

...

will

...

no

...

longer

...

see

...

a

...

project

...

named

...

A

you'll

Deploying the Component

Now that the SA is built, we're

...

ready

...

to

...

deploy

...

it

...

to

...

the

...

JBI container.

This is a work in progress. I will finish this up very soon.

Note
titleDeploying Component Dependencies

When working with the jbi:projectDeploy you may want to disable dependency deployment. When deploying to a server which has other components sharing these dependencies, they can cause problems during deployment. To stop the Maven JBI plugin from undeploying and redeploying dependencies each time, alter its configuration by disabling the deployment of dependencies using the following:

The default implementation of the component accepts InOut MEPs (ADD
