This example demonstrates how you can use Apache CXF with Spring Boot based on a fabric8 Java base image.
The quickstart uses Spring Boot to configure a little application that includes a CXF JAXWS endpoint.
The example can be built with
mvn clean install
The example can be run locally using the following Maven goal:
mvn spring-boot:run
It is assumed a running Kubernetes platform is already running. If not you can find details how to get started.
Assuming your current shell is connected to Kubernetes or OpenShift so that you can type a command like
kubectl get pods
or for OpenShift
oc get pods
Then the following command will package your app and run it on Kubernetes:
mvn fabric8:run
The output log will give the URL to access the endpoint, something like
[INFO] F8:[SVC] spring-boot-cxf-jaxws: http://192.168.64.7:32224
You need to append the context-path service/hello to access the service so the URL is something like
http://192.168.64.7:32224/service/hello
To list all the running pods:
oc get pods
Then find the name of the pod that runs this quickstart, and output the logs from the running pods with:
oc logs <name of pod>
You can also use the fabric8 developer console to manage the running pods, and view logs and much more.
To access the endpoint, use the host and port from the output log when run mvn fabric8:run
http://192.168.64.7:32224/service/hello?wsdl
... will now display the generated WSDL.
The example includes a fabric8 arquillian Kubernetes Integration Test. Once the container image has been built and deployed in Kubernetes, the integration test can be run with:
mvn test -Dtest=*KT
The test is disabled by default and has to be enabled using -Dtest. Integration Testing and Fabric8 Arquillian Extension provide more information on writing full fledged black box integration tests for Kubernetes.
You can find more details about running this quickstart on the website. This also includes instructions how to change the Docker image user and registry.
