Configuration files from Artemis 2.3 are not compatible with 2.1 files since 2.3 already includes hawtio. This upgrade requires manual migration.
Taking the vromero/activemq-artemis image as a base and since ActiveMQ Artemis does not offer any graphical administration console, this container includes the neccesary configuration to run ActiveMQ Artemis + HawtIO + HawtIO Artemis Plugin.
JBoss-AMQ (7.0.1) is an alternative, but it contains propietary parts and does not include ActiveMQ Artemis 2.1.0 yet.
Apache ActiveMQ Artemis is an open source project to build a multi-protocol, embeddable, very high performance, clustered, asynchronous messaging system. Apache ActiveMQ Artemis is an example of Message Oriented Middleware (MoM)
HawtIO is a web dashboard for managing and monitoring JVM-based services such as Apache ActiveMQ, Apache Camel, JBoss, Infinispan, Apache Tomcat. There is no integrated support for ActiveMQ Artemis, so it is neccesary to use a plugin.
ActiveMQ Artemis daemon can be run with the following command:
$ docker run -d -p 8161:8161 -p 61616:61616 marcelocaj/artemis-hawtio-docker
Open your browser in:
$ http://localhost:8161/hawtio
After a few seconds, you can run the following command docker logs some-thing
(where some-thing is the name docker assigned to your instance), you'll see in the output a block similar to:

By default Artemis will use 512 Megabytes or RAM at minimum and 2048 Megabytes at maximum. You can set the memory that you application needs by using the parameters ARTEMIS__MIN_MEMORY
and ARTEMIS_MAX_MEMORY
:
$ docker run -d -e 'ARTEMIS_MIN_MEMORY=1512M' -e 'ARTEMIS_MAX_MEMORY=3048M' marcelocaj/artemis-hawtio-docker
The previous example will launch Apache ActiveMQ Artemis in docker with 1512 MB of memory, with a maximum usage of 3048 MB of memory.
The format of the values passed is the same than the format used for the Java -Xms
and -Xmx
parameters and its documented here.
If you wish to change the default username and password of artemis
/ simetraehcapa
, you can do so with the ARTEMIS_USERNAME
and ARTEMIS_PASSWORD
environmental variables:
$ docker run -d -e ARTEMIS_USERNAME=myuser -e ARTEMIS_PASSWORD=otherpassword marcelocaj/artemis-hawtio-docker
Due to the JMX's nature, often with dynamics ports for RMI and the need having configure the public IP address to reach the RMI server.
It is discouraged to use JMX in Docker. Although in certain scenarios, it could be advisable, as when deploying in a
container orchestrator such as Kubernetes or Mesos, and deploying along side this container a side car. For such cases
the following environment variable could be used: ENABLE_JMX
.
It is also possible to set the JMX port and the JMX RMI port with these two environment variables respectively: JMX_PORT
(default: 1099) and JMX_RMI_PORT
(default: 1098).
Given that JMX is intended for side cars, it is attached only to localhost and not protected with SSL. Likewise, its ports are not declared in the Dockerfile
.
$ docker run -d -e ENABLE_JMX=true -e JMX_PORT=1199 -e JMX_RMI_PORT=1198 marcelocaj/artemis-hawtio-docker
Different kinds of volumes need different values in fine tuning.
It is possible to calculate the journal-buffer-timeout you should use with the current data folder and
apply it directly to the broker configuration using the environment variable: ARTEMIS_PERF_JOURNAL
with one
of the following valid values:
Value | Description |
---|---|
AUTO |
Checks for the existence of a .perf-journal-completed file in the data volume, if it doesn't exist performs the calculation, applies the configuration and creates the file. |
NEVER (default) |
Never do the performance journal configuration |
ALWAYS |
Always do the performance journal configuration |
It is advisable to set it up in AUTO
in non manually configured containers, although given that this image is
often used for quick tests and non production environments it is set as NEVER as default value.
$ docker run -d -e ARTEMIS_PERF_JOURNAL=AUTO marcelocaj/artemis-hawtio-docker
It is possible to mount a whole artemis etc
directory in this image in the volume /var/lib/artemis/etc
.
But this is an overkill for many situations where only small tweaks are necessary.
For those cases /var/lib/artemis/etc-override
can be used.
Multiple files with snippets of configuration can be dropped in the etc-override
folder. Those configuration files must be named following the name convention broker-{{desc}}.xml
where desc
is a numeric representation of the snippet.
The configuration files will be merged with the default configuration. An alphabetical precedence of the file names will be considered for the merge and in case of collision the latest change will be treated as final.
For instance lets say that you want to add a diverts section, you could have a local directory, lets say /var/artemis-data/etc-override
where you could place a broker-00.xml
file that looks like the following listing:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<configuration xmlns="urn:activemq" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:activemq /schema/artemis-server.xsd">
<core xmlns="urn:activemq:core">
<diverts>
<divert name="order-divert">
<routing-name>order-divert</routing-name>
<address>orders</address>
<forwarding-address>spyTopic</forwarding-address>
<exclusive>false</exclusive>
</divert>
</diverts>
</core>
</configuration>
For the use cases where instead of merging, the desired outcome is an override, a file named broker-00.xslt
in /var/lib/artemis/etc-override
is supported. For instance to delete override the jms
definitions instead of merging, these files could be used:
broker.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<configuration xmlns="urn:activemq" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:activemq /schema/artemis-configuration.xsd">
<jms xmlns="urn:activemq:jms">
<queue name="myfancyqueue"/>
<queue name="myotherqueue"/>
</jms>
</configuration>
broker-00.xslt
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:activemq="urn:activemq" xmlns:jms="urn:activemq:jms">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*[local-name()='jms']"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
If you would like to see the final result of your transformations, execute the following:
docker run -v /var/artemis-data/override:/var/lib/artemis/etc-override -it --rm marcelocaj/artemis-hawtio-docker cat ../etc/broker.xml
