JMX Plugin

JMX Plugin

This plugin adds JMX MBeanServer support through spring and configures a number MBeans.

NOTE: This is still is an early release.

Plugin features:

  • Configures MBeanServer in Grails Application
  • Exposes Log4j for runtime logging level configuration
  • Exposes the Grails DataSource
  • Exposes Any Service configured for jmx
Full source code is available at git://github.com/kensipe/jmx-grails-plugin.git

Setup

grails install-plugin grails-jmx-0.3.zip

There is nothing to do after the install if you have no services to expose. Just run the application and use jconsole to administrate.

Exposing Services

Currently the plugin only supports exposing Services. This is accomplished by add 'jmx' to the static expose property as outlined below:

class StateService {
    boolean transactional = true
    static expose = ['jmx']
This will expose the service leverage a convention for the service name. Alternatively you can be very explicit on the object through the following example: 
class CountryService {
    boolean transactional = true
    static expose = ['jmx:service=Country,type=special']

Future plans

  • Check for proper ObjectName
  • Expose Jetty Services

Release Notes

v.0.3: First released into the wild.
