<h1>Management Notification Example</h1>
<p>This example shows how to receive management notifications from ActiveMQ using JMS Messages.</p>
<p>ActiveMQ servers emit management notifications when events of interest occur (consumers are created or closed,
destinations are created or deleted, security authentication fails, etc.).<br />
These notifications can be received either by using JMX (see <a href="../jmx/readme.html">JMX example</a>) or by receiving JMS Messages
from a well-known destination.</p>
<p>This example will setup a JMS MessageListener to receive management notifications. We will also perform normal JMS operations to see the kind
of notifications they trigger.</p>
<h2>Example configuration</h2>
<p>ActiveMQ can configured to send JMS messages when management notifications are emitted on the server.</p>
<p>By default, the management name is called <code>activemq.notifications</code> but this can be configured in <a href="server0/activemq-configuration.xml">activemq-configuration.xml</a>.
For this example, we will set it to <code>jms.topic.notificationsTopic</code> to be able to receive notifications from a JMS Topic.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code><management-notification-address>jms.topic.notificationsTopic</management-notification-address></code>
</pre>
<p>Since we want to lookup the notifications topic using JNDI, we also declare it in <a href="server0/activemq-jms.xml">activemq-jms.xml</a>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code><topic name="notificationsTopic">
<entry name="/topic/notificationsTopic"/>
</topic></code>
</pre>
<p>The notification queue requires permission to create/delete temporary queues and consume messages.
This is also configured in <a href="server0/activemq-configuration.xml">activemq-configuration.xml</a></p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code><!--security for notification topic-->
<security-setting match="jms.topic.notificationsTopic">
<permission type="consume" roles="guest"/>
<permission type="createNonDurableQueue" roles="guest"/>
<permission type="deleteNonDurableQueue" roles="guest"/>
</security-setting></code>
</pre>
<h2>Example step-by-step</h2>
<p><em>To run the example, simply type <code>mvn verify</code> from this directory</em></p>
<ol>
<li>First we need to get an initial context so we can look-up the JMS connection factory and destination objects from JNDI. This initial context will get its properties from <a href="server0/client-jndi.properties">client-jndi.properties</a></li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>InitialContext initialContext = getContext(0);</code>
</pre>
<li>We look up the JMS queue object from JNDI</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>Queue queue = (Queue) initialContext.lookup("/queue/exampleQueue");</code>
</pre>
<li>We look up the JMS connection factory object from JNDI</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>ConnectionFactory cf = (ConnectionFactory) initialContext.lookup("/ConnectionFactory");</code>
</pre>
<li>We create a JMS connection, a session and a message producer for the example queue</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>connection = cf.createConnection();
Session session = connection.createSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
MessageProducer producer = session.createProducer(queue);</code>
</pre>
<li>We look up the JMS Topic used to receive the notifications from JNDI</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>Topic notificationsTopic = (Topic) initialContext.lookup("/topic/notificationsTopic");</code>
</pre>
<li>We create a MessageConsumer for the notification queue and set its MessageListener. When a notification is received, we will simply display all the message properties</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>MessageConsumer notificationConsumer = session.createConsumer(notificationsTopic);
notificationConsumer.setMessageListener(new MessageListener()
{
public void onMessage(Message notif)
{
System.out.println("------------------------");
System.out.println("Received notification:");
try
{
Enumeration propertyNames = notif.getPropertyNames();
while (propertyNames.hasMoreElements())
{
String propertyName = (String)propertyNames.nextElement();
System.out.format(" %s: %s\n", propertyName, notif.getObjectProperty(propertyName));
}
}
catch (JMSException e)
{
}
System.out.println("------------------------");
}
});</code>
</pre>
<li>We start the connection to receive messages</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>connection.start();</code>
</pre>
<p><em>Now that a message listener is setup to receive management notifications, we will perform regular JMS operations to
see what kind of notifications are triggered</em></p>
<li>We create a JMS message consumer on the example queue</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>MessageConsumer consumer = session.createConsumer(queue);</code>
</pre>
<p>This will generate a <code>CONSUMER_CREATED</code> notification:
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>------------------------
Received notification:
_HQ_RoutingName: jms.queue.exampleQueue
_HQ_Address: jms.queue.exampleQueue
...
_HQ_ConsumerCount: 1
...
_HQ_NotifType: CONSUMER_CREATED
------------------------</code>
</pre>
<p>The notification tells us that a consumer was created for the JMS queue <code>exampleQueue</code>. When the notification
was emitted, this consumer was the only one for the queue</p>
<li>We close this consumer</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>consumer.close();</code>
</pre>
<p>This will generate a <code>CONSUMER_CLOSED</code> notification:
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>------------------------
Received notification:
_HQ_RoutingName: jms.queue.exampleQueue
_HQ_Address: jms.queue.exampleQueue
...
_HQ_ConsumerCount: 0
...
_HQ_NotifType: CONSUMER_CLOSED
------------------------</code>
</pre>
<p>The notification tells us that a consumer was closed for the JMS queue <code>exampleQueue</code>. When the notification
was emitted, there were no other consumers on the queue</p>
<li>As a last example, we will create a connection with invalid user credentials</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>try
{
cf.createConnection("not.a.valid.user", "not.a.valid.password");
} catch (JMSException e)
{
}</code>
</pre>
<p>This will generate a <code>SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION_VIOLATION</code> notification:
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>------------------------
Received notification:
_HQ_User: not.a.valid.user
...
_HQ_NotifType: SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION_VIOLATION
------------------------
</code>
</pre>
<p>The notification tells us that a user named <code>not.a.valid.user</code> failed to authenticate when creating a connection to ActiveMQ.</p>
<li>And finally, <b>always</b> remember to close your JMS connections and resources after use, in a <code>finally</code> block. Closing a JMS connection will automatically close all of its sessions, consumers, producer and browser objects</li>
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>finally
{
if (initialContext != null)
{
initialContext.close();
}
if (connection != null)
{
connection.close();
}
}</code>
</pre>
</ol>
