dropwizard-foundationdb

Build Quality Gate Status Maven Central

Provides easy integration for Dropwizard applications with FoundationDB and various layers.

This bundle comes with out-of-the-box support for:

  • Configuration
  • Cluster connection lifecycle management
  • Cluster health checks
  • Metrics instrumentation for FoundationDB APIs
  • Support for the Record Layer

Possible future additions include:

For more information on FoundationDB, take a look at the official documentation here: https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/

For more information on Record Layer, take a look at the documentation located here: https://foundationdb.github.io/fdb-record-layer/

Gradle:

compile "io.dropwizard.modules:dropwizard-foundationdb:$dropwizardFoundationDBVersion"

Foundation DB Usage

In your Dropwizard Configuration class, configure a FoundationDBFactory

@Valid
@NotNull
@JsonProperty("fdb")
private FoundationDBFactory fdbFactory;

Then, in your Application class, you'll want to do something similar to the following:

private final FoundationDBBundle<ExampleConfiguration> foundationdb = new FoundationDBBundle<ExampleConfiguration>() {
    @Override
    public FoundationDBFactory getFoundationDBFactory(ExampleConfiguration configuration) {
        return configuration.getFDBFactory();
    }
};

@Override
public void initialize(Bootstrap<ExampleConfiguration> bootstrap) {
    bootstrap.addBundle(foundationdb);
}

@Override
public void run(ExampleConfiguration config, Environment environment) {
    final PersonDAO dao = new PersonDAO(foundationdb.getDatabase());
    environment.jersey().register(new UserResource(dao));
}

Configure your factory in your config.yml file:

fdb:
  name: FoundationDB # Default value
  apiVersion: 600
  clusterFilePath: /path/to/cluster/file/fdb_dev.cluster
  dataCenter: DC1
  # Optional configuration for health check subspace, timeout and max retries
  healthCheckTimeout: 5s # Default value
  healthCheckRetries: 5 # Default value
  healthCheckSubspace: health-checking # Default value
  # Optional TLS configuration for TLS-enabled clusters
  security:
    type: multi-file
    certificateChainFilePath: /path/to/keystore/keystore.pem
    keyFilePath: /path/to/keystore/keystore.pem
    password: somePasswordHere
    verifyPeers: Root.CN=Some Root CA
    caFilePath: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt # Default value

Record Layer Usage

In your Dropwizard Configuration class, configure a RecordLayerFactory

@Valid
@NotNull
@JsonProperty("recordLayer")
private RecordLayerFactory recordLayerFactory;

Then, in your Application class, you'll want to do something similar to the following:

private final RecordLayerBundle<ExampleConfiguration> recordLayer = new RecordLayerBundle<ExampleConfiguration>() {
    @Override
    public RecordLayerFactory getRecordLayerFactory(ExampleConfiguration configuration) {
        return configuration.getRecordLayerFactory();
    }
};

@Override
public void initialize(Bootstrap<ExampleConfiguration> bootstrap) {
    bootstrap.addBundle(recordLayer);
}

@Override
public void run(ExampleConfiguration config, Environment environment) {
    final PersonDAO dao = new PersonDAO(recordLayer.getDatabase());
    environment.jersey().register(new UserResource(dao));
}

Configure your factory in your config.yml file:

recordLayer:
  name: RecordLayer # Default value
  maxRetriableTransactionAttempts: 5
  initialTransactionRetryDelay: 5ms
  maxTransactionRetryDelay: 500ms
  directoryCacheSize: 10
  traceLogGroup: default
  reverseDirectoryMaxTimePerTransaction: 2500ms
  reverseDirectoryMaxRowsPerTransaction: 11000
  clusterFilePath: src/test/resources/fdb_dev.cluster
  dataCenter: DC1
  # Optional configuration for health check subspace, timeout and max retries
  healthCheckTimeout: 5s # Default value
  healthCheckRetries: 5 # Default value
  healthCheckSubspace: health-checking # Default value
  # Optional TLS configuration for TLS-enabled clusters
  security:
    enabled: true # Defaulted to true, if the security factory is defined
    type: multi-file
    certificateChainFilePath: /path/to/keystore/keystore.pem
    keyFilePath: /path/to/keystore/keystore.pem
    password: somePasswordHere
    verifyPeers: Root.CN=Some Root CA
    caFilePath: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt # Default value

API Versions and Record Layer

There is an apiVersion configuration available in the RecordLayerFactory class that may be configured. However, record layer itself pins library versions to an apiVersion in their database initialization code. Therefore, the value specified for the apiVersion must match what record layer expects. By default in the dropwizard-foundationdb module, we will pin to the same version as record layer for the version of the record layer we include. If for some reason you as a user need to upgrade record layer independent of dropwizard-foundationdb, only then should you override the apiVersion value.

TLS Configuration Info

For more details on working with a TLS-enabled FoundationDB cluster, see the following docs: https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/tls.html

Connecting to Multiple Clusters from a single application

Something to be aware, based on how some of the FoundationDB configurations work, is that some configurations in the RecordLayerFactory and FoundationDBFactory are global to all of the applications connections to various FoundationDB cluster.

Some of these configurations include:

  • apiVersion
  • traceDirectory
  • and more, for which you should refer to the FoundationDB and Record Layer documentation (linked above) for more info.

Therefore, it's important that special attention is paid to the global configuration values in cases where you need to connect to multiple clusters from a single application.
