eureka-klient

A netflix eureka client written in kotlin from the groundup with bare hands, I've used no external libraries except JUnit. I've written the JSON serializer, the deserializer (the most hard part), and the HTTP Client.

All the implementation meant not to be perfect or feature-complete, it is just a good enough to enable me for writing the eureka client.

Infrastructure Components:

  1. JSON serializer (helpers.json.Serializer.kt):

    Simple serializer that accepts object and returns json string, with ability to override the generated string for a certain object in the object graph.

  2. JSON deserializer/parser (helpers.json.Deserializer.kt):

    It is not a feature-complete and not confirms to RFC 7159, it is just good-enough and do parses most cases you could face in day-to-day (e.g. arrays of objects of arrays of arrays of objects of arrays of scalars)

  3. HTTP Client library (helpers.HttpClient.kt):

    A simple wrapper on top of HttpURLConnection of Java

Eureka Client:

Found in eureka.EurekaApi.kt file, the register and renew functions are implemented.

How to use:

  1. Install eureka server by either:

After extract the zip file, go to the EurekaserverApplication and add annotation: @org.springframework.cloud.netflix.eureka.server.EnableEurekaServer on top of EurekaserverApplication :

@org.springframework.cloud.netflix.eureka.server.EnableEurekaServer
@SpringBootApplication
public class EurekaserverApplication {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       SpringApplication.run(EurekaserverApplication.class, args);
   }

}

Now run: mvn spring-boot:run

  • You can also use jhispter register instead of building your own spring-boot based registery docker image
  1. In eureka-klient, go to: main.kt file and run the main function to start the client. You can register multiple clients by changing the client name and the port via cli:
   mvn clean package -DskipTests
   EUREKA_SERVER_PORT=8080 java -jar target/eureka-klient-*-jar-with-dependencies.jar svc1 8081

  1. Now go to http://localhost:8080 and check your app is registered. You can verify apps are registered using:

    curl -H 'Accept: application/json' http://localhost:8080/eureka/apps | jq

    you will got output similar to:

{
  "applications": {
    "versions__delta": "1",
    "apps__hashcode": "UP_2_",
    "application": [
      {
        "name": "MYSERVICE",
        "instance": [
          {
            "instanceId": "192.168.1.10",
            "hostName": "192.168.1.10",
            "app": "MYSERVICE",
            "ipAddr": "192.168.1.10",
            "status": "UP",
            "overriddenStatus": "UNKNOWN",
            "port": {
              "$": 8089,
              "@enabled": "true"
            },
            // ....... rest of json string .......
  1. You can also call the client running on step 2 above from spring-cloud eureka client:
@EnableDiscoveryClient
@SpringBootApplication
class DemoApplication : CommandLineRunner {

    @Autowired
    lateinit var restTemplate: RestTemplate
    @Autowired
    lateinit var discoveryClient: DiscoveryClient

    override fun run(vararg args: String?) {

        println(discoveryClient.getInstances("svc1"))

        val entity = restTemplate.getForEntity("http://svc1", String::class.java)
        println(entity.statusCode)
        println(entity.body)

    }

    @Bean
    @LoadBalanced
    fun restTemplate(): RestTemplate = RestTemplate()
}

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    runApplication<DemoApplication>(*args)
}

Why?

I am working on app with bloated unnecessary services that most of the time is just pain-in-the-head to got all of the them running and registered to the eureka registery to do absloutly nothing important. So I decided to write a simple client that can work as a drop-in replacemnt.
