This version is still in development and is not considered stable yet. For the latest stable version, please use spring-cloud-bus 4.1.3! |
Quickstart
Spring Cloud Bus works by adding Spring Boot autconfiguration if it detects itself on the
classpath. To enable the bus, add spring-cloud-starter-bus-amqp
or
spring-cloud-starter-bus-kafka
to your dependency management. Spring Cloud takes care of
the rest. Make sure the broker (RabbitMQ or Kafka) is available and configured. When
running on localhost, you need not do anything. If you run remotely, use Spring Cloud
Connectors or Spring Boot conventions to define the broker credentials, as shown in the
following example for Rabbit:
spring: rabbitmq: host: mybroker.com port: 5672 username: user password: secret
The bus currently supports sending messages to all nodes listening or all nodes for a
particular service (as defined by Eureka). The /bus/*
actuator namespace has some HTTP
endpoints. Currently, two are implemented. The first, /bus/env
, sends key/value pairs to
update each node’s Spring Environment. The second, /bus/refresh
, reloads each
application’s configuration, as though they had all been pinged on their /refresh
endpoint.
The Spring Cloud Bus starters cover Rabbit and Kafka, because those are the two most
common implementations. However, Spring Cloud Stream is quite flexible, and the binder
works with spring-cloud-bus .
