The Cloud Foundry SPI implementation is a separate project. |
Spring Cloud Data Flow can be used to deploy modules in a Cloud Foundry environment. When doing so, the Admin application can either run itself on Cloud Foundry, or on another installation (e.g. a simple laptop).
The required configuration amounts to the same in either case, and is merely related to providing credentials to the Cloud Foundry instance so that the admin can spawn applications itself. Any Spring Boot compatible configuration mechanism can be used (passing program arguments, editing configuration files before building the application, using Spring Cloud Config, using environment variables, etc.), although some may prove more practicable than others when running on Cloud Foundry.
- provision a redis service instance on Cloud Foundry.
Use
cf marketplaceto discover which plans are available to you, depending on the details of your Cloud Foundry setup. For example when using Pivotal Web Services:
cf create-service rediscloud 30mb redis
- download the Spring Cloud Data Flow Admin and Shell apps:
wget http://repo.spring.io/milestone/org/springframework/cloud/spring-cloud-dataflow-admin-cloudfoundry/1.0.0.M1/spring-cloud-dataflow-admin-cloudfoundry-1.0.0.M1.jar wget http://repo.spring.io/milestone/org/springframework/cloud/spring-cloud-dataflow-shell/1.0.0.M1/spring-cloud-dataflow-shell-1.0.0.M1.jar
