FireWorks

A simple simulation of a rocket factory using JMS. There are four different type of people responsible for the creation of a rocket:

• Supplier
• Worker
• Quality Tester
• Logistician

Suppliers can be created using the Graphical User Interface FireWorks. Workers, Quality Testers, and Logistician are all simple command line programs.

Requirements

To compile and execute the programs contained in this repository you need the following software components:

• WildlFly 8.2
• JDK 1.8
• Maven

Configuration

1. Add an application user

• Unix: add-user.sh -a -u 'fireworks' -p 'fireworks' -g 'guest'
• Windows: add-user.bat -a -u 'fireworks' -p 'fireworks' -g 'guest'

2. Start the web server

• Unix: standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml
• Windows: standalone.bat -c standalone-full.xml

3. Add the configuration data to the web server

• Unix: jboss-cli.sh --connect --file=configure-jms.cli
• Windows: jboss-cli.bat --connect --file=configure-jms.cli

If you want to remove the configuration data you can do so by issuing the following command while the server is running:

• Unix: jboss-cli.sh --connect --file=remove-jms.cli
• Windows: jboss-cli.bat --connect --file=remove-jms.cli

If you want to remove the queue data generated by the application you can do so by removing the folder standalone/data inside the WildFly installation directory.

Compilation

Use the following command to compile all programs contained in the repository:

mvn compile

Execution

Before executing any of the following commands please make sure that WildFly is running and that you followed the steps outlined in the section configuration.

FireWorks GUI

To start the graphical user interface you can use the following Maven command:

mvn exec:java -PFireWorks

To add suppliers use the button New Order. You can edit the different attributes for a supplier by double clicking the cell for the corresponding attribute. If you are happy with the current selection of suppliers you can use the button Start Suppliers to activate them.

Worker

To start a worker using the default ID specified in pom.xml use the following command:

mvn exec:java -PWorker

You can also specify the ID when you start a worker. The following command starts a worker with ID 3:

mvn exec:java -PWorker -Dworker.id=3

Quality Tester

The command line arguments for the quality tester are the same as the ones for the worker. To start a tester you can use the Maven profile Tester. The following command starts a quality tester using the default arguments specified in pom.xml.

mvn exec:java -PTester

Logistician

The logistician has the same command line arguments as the worker and tester. You can use the Maven profile Logistic to start a logistic worker:

mvn exec:java -PLogistic
