2. Java Applications

2.1. Build Application

Gradle Build

./gradlew -p services clean bootJar

2.2. Download AppDynamics Java Agent

Download the agent and unzip the agent to libs/appd-java-agent

2.3. Prepare Environment

Create postgres databases for customer-service and product-service

# start customer-postgres
docker run \
  -d \
  --name customer-postgres \
  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgrespw \
  -p 5412:5432 \
  postgres:14.4-alpine

# start product-postgres
docker run \
  -d \
  --name product-postgres \
  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgrespw \
  -p 5422:5432 \
  postgres:14.4-alpine

# start rabbitmq
docker run \
  -d \
  --name rabbitmq \
  -p 5672:5672 \
  rabbitmq:3.10.6-alpine

Configure AppDynamics Environment

export APPDYNAMICS_CONTROLLER_HOST_NAME={{controller-host-name}}
export APPDYNAMICS_CONTROLLER_PORT={{controller-host-port}}
export APPDYNAMICS_CONTROLLER_SSL_ENABLED={{controller-ssl-enabled}}
export APPDYNAMICS_AGENT_ACCOUNT_NAME={{agent-account-name}}
export APPDYNAMICS_AGENT_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_KEY={{agent-account-access-key}}
export APPDYNAMICS_AGENT_APPLICATION_NAME=appd-demo-java
export APPDYNAMICS_AGENT_LOCATION=${PWD}/lib/appd-java-agent/javaagent.jar

2.4. Start and Stop Java Applications

./start.sh

./stop.sh
