Up and running with Sample Spring-Cloud based Hystrix demo app

There are two ways to run the entire application:

• On Local Machine

• Using Docker

On Local Machine

Running it all local is simple, do the following in sequence, in four different terminal windows:

Start up Eureka

cd sample-hystrix-eureka
mvn spring-boot:run

Start up Config server

cd config-server
mvn spring-boot:run

Start up Sample Service

cd message-provider
mvn spring-boot:run

Start up Aggregate Application

cd
mvn spring-boot:run

Start up Gateway Application

cd zuul
mvn spring-boot:run

Start up Monitoring Application

cd turbine
mvn spring-boot:run

If all the applications have come up cleanly, the following endpoints are available:

• Endpoints of the gateway application which forwards requests to the message-consumer: Try http://localhost:8080/message-consumer/hello

• Eureka endpoint at http://localhost:8761

• Hystrix dashboard at http://localhost:8989/hystrix

• Turbine stream which aggregates information from message-consumer application at http://localhost:8989/turbine.stream?cluster=SAMPLE-HYSTRIX-AGGREGATE

• A sample UI is available at http://localhost:8080

On Docker

Running using Docker is even simpler, assuming that docker-compose and docker are installed on your box, just run the following:

Build the docker images for the microservices

mvn clean package docker:build

Start up Docker containers

docker-compose up

If all the applications have come up cleanly, the following endpoints are available:

• Endpoints of the gateway application which forwards requests to the message-consumer: Try http://dockerip:8080/message-consumer/hello

• Eureka endpoint at http://dockerip:8761

• Hystrix dashboard at http://dockerip:8989/hystrix

• Turbine stream which aggregates information from message-consumer application at http://dockerip:8989/turbine.stream?cluster=SAMPLE-HYSTRIX-AGGREGATE

• A sample UI is available at http://dockerip:8080
