Dropwizard Upgrade 0.6 to 0.9

Even some popular libraries make upgrade to recent versions such a difficult task that if there are not major security fixes most people drag the older versions along with the product till such a time that incompatibilities with other projects emerge or use of new features necessitates such a move.

We upgraded one of the core libraries of one of our projects recently - Dropwizard - from 0.6 to 0.9 and as luck would have it, 0.6 to 0.7 a whole world changed for Dropwizard!

Here’s a guide that provided a lot of valuable information that I see no reason to reproduce: https://intentmedia.com/upgrading-dropwizard-0-6-to-0-7/

Here are a few other things that were not covered or well defined in the guide that, along with the guide, should be sufficient to help you upgrade to a more recent version of Dropwizard -

Server configuration:

If you have been using the same port for application and admin endpoints in the previous versions, with the upgrade you would get a Bind exception. In the earlier version if the same port is given Dropwizard would automatically use the same for admin endpoints and expose them at /admin. The documentation around this is not very clear but in such a case you would need to use the "simple" server type which would take just a single port.

Views:

If your application uses Dropwizard views, after upgrade you would need to include a dropwizard-views-freemarker dependency which was previously included in the core artifacts. Failing to include this would just give a vague "Template Error" and not stacktrace.

Dropwizard TechEmpower Benchmark - Part 1: Let’s Begin

Some of you may have heard of the TechEmpower Web Framework Benchmarks. As it turns out, the open source project that I’m involved with (Dropwizard) is featured in the benchmark. Dropwizard hasn’t fared terribly well in the benchmark, however, which is surprising because I’ve seen it in production. It’s been pretty snappy.

Determined to get to the bottom of the results (maybe I should rephrase that), I’ve forked and locally cloned the benchmark repo, located Dropwizard in the frameworks/Java/dropwizard directory, and followed the README.md instructions to run the benchmark locally.

The results aren’t pretty. Granted, the benchmark runs inside a VirtualBox instance alongside the Dropwizard app and a MySQL database. It’s not the raw latency that concerns me so much as the standard deviation and the long tail latency (i.e. latency at the 99th percentile). These are typically indications of scaling issues. Even at 8 concurrent connections with 2 driving threads, long tail latency for a simple JSON endpoint is alarmingly high:

Running 15s test @ http://127.0.0.1:9090/json 2 threads and 8 connections Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev Latency 1.08ms 2.36ms 55.03ms 95.36% Req/Sec 5.81k 626.98 7.28k 82.67% Latency Distribution 50% 602.00us 75% 732.00us 90% 1.20ms 99% 12.42ms 173528 requests in 15.01s, 27.47MB read Requests/sec: 11561.92

As you can see, 75% of requests finish in under 1 millisecond. Even at 90% we’re still finishing in just over 1 millisecond. The slowest 1% of requests, however, take more than 10 milliseconds. As the concurrency maxes out at 256 connections and 2 threads, the median response time is unnacceptably slow for such a basic endpoint (even for an underpowered virtual machine) and the 99th percentile is heading towards 1 second:

Running 15s test @ http://127.0.0.1:9090/json 2 threads and 256 connections Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev Latency 74.24ms 130.63ms 1.28s 88.12% Req/Sec 5.45k 0.94k 8.24k 72.00% Latency Distribution 50% 15.04ms 75% 85.84ms 90% 233.41ms 99% 620.43ms 162873 requests in 15.01s, 25.78MB read Requests/sec: 10848.85

Equipped with the fabulous IntelliJ IDEA, the indispensable Java Mission Control, insatiable curiosity, and a desire to see Dropwizard move up the ranks a bit I’m going to dive into the benchmark, into Dropwizard, and into Dropwizard’s dependencies to see what I can learn and what I can improve. I plan to do a series of posts showing my methods and remedies in the hope that it proves useful or educational to others.

If that sounds interesting to you, you can follow me on Twitter for updates. I’ve already identified a few improvements, which I hope are as entertaining as they are educational.

Problem using maven with java8 on cartridge ‘diy’

My application is depeloped using a simple frameworl Dropwizard. Here a mini tutorial: https://blog.openshift.com/day-13-dropwizard-the-awesome-java-rest-server-stack/

Now I've to deploy application on OpenShift. Here some tips during deployment.

1° PROBLEM

By default ‘diy’ cartridge uses java 7. I’ve to use java 8 in my application so I’ve found this hit for installing java 8 on my application: 

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23894323/jdk-8-support-at-diy-cartridge-in-openshift

It’s works well.

Now following these instructions: http://dmly.github.io/blog/2013/05/01/diy-java-app-server-on-openshift-so-far-so-good/

But,

2° PROBLEM

Running maven, It can’t write in defaul repository for missing permission, so I’ve found a solution by specifing in sessings.xml file the repisitory location in my $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR

Here the explanation, how to run maven locally: 

https://forums.openshift.com/maven-could-not-create-local-repository

But,

3° PROBLEM

Even when I specify JAVA_HOME to my java 8 installation, the default maven, yet installed by default on Openshift, uses java 7, so It gives problems compiling source, executing maven task:

+ mvn package -s /var/lib/openshift/566e8b000c1e66efec00002f/app-root/runtime/repo//.openshift/settings.xml -q clean package [debug] execute contextualize [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.3:compile (default-compile) on project classcard_gest: Fatal error compiling: invalid target release: 1.8 -> [Help 1] [ERROR] [ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e switch.

Using Heroku for Highly Available Dropwizard Apps

Creating custom JDBI binders!

Say you want to use JDBI's SQL Object API and have an insert statement that you want to run, for example:

INSERT INTO users (first_name, age) VALUES (:firstName, :age);

but your User class looks like:

class User { String firstName; String Date dateOfBirth; // constructor(s) // getters public int getAge() { // ... some vodoo to calculate age... } }

Writing a JDBI UserDao with the following method would crash since there is no "age" field in the User class and JDBI doesn't know how to bind to the ":age" parameter.

public void saveUser(@BindBean User user);

Start by creating a custom binding:

@BindingAnnotation(BindUser.UserBinderFactory.class) @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) @Target({ElementType.PARAMETER}) public @interface BindUser { public static class UserBinderFactory implements BinderFactory { public Binder build(Annotation annotation) { return new Binder<BindUser, User>() { public void bind(SQLStatement q, BindUser bind, User user) { q.bind("firstName", user.getFirstName()); q.bind("age", user.getAge()); } }; } } }

Then change your saveUser() method to use the binding you just created:

public void saveUser(@BindUser User user);

Voila!
