wercker status

remy is an application I wrote to learn a little about golang as well as to itch a little scratch I had with WebLogic servers. WebLogic has a feature called RESTful Management Extensions, which lets you query an AdminServer's domain for various pieces of information it knows about Servers, Clusters, Datasources, and Applications that it is resposnible for. This is pretty useful if you are interested in writing a lot of small scripts to quickly get the status of some datasource in your cluster without having to resort to connecting, setting up, and maintaining your own copy of a WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) interface.

This application provides a fancy command-line interface over top of this REST API, allowing you to quickly ascertain how a server or cluster is doing without having to maintain all the complexity of an entire WLS domain locally just to connect(url="t3://server:7001", username="weblogic", password="welcome1"), etc., etc.

Installation

Releases

The latest version I put out there is v0.2.1, and that can be found on the releases page: v0.2.1 release

From Source

For the die-hard coder in you:

go get -u github.com/klauern/remy/cmd/remy

Usage

Running remy help will show you your options:

C:\> remy help
Query a WebLogic Domain's resources, including Datasources, Applications, Clusters, and Servers by using the WebLogic RESTful Management Extensions API

Usage:
  remy [command]

Available Commands:
  applications Query applications deployed under AdminServer
  config       Configure the credentials and server to default REST connections to
  clusters     Query clusters under AdminServer
  datasources  Query datasources under AdminServer
  servers      Display Server information
  version      Show the version of this command

Flags:
  -s, --adminurl="http://localhost:7001": Url for the Admin Server
  -f, --full-format[=false]: Return full format from REST server
  -p, --password="welcome1": Password for the user
  -u, --username="weblogic": Username with privileges to access AdminServer

Use "remy [command] --help" for more information about a command.

Configuration and Authentication

Every command to query for information must inclue a set of credentials to

  • The AdminServer the WebLogic Domain resides on
  • Username
  • Password

These can be provided by a number of options:

  1. Command-line flags:
    • --adminurl="http://server:7001"
    • --username="weblogic"
    • --password="welcome1"
  2. Environment Variables:
    • export WLS_ADMINURL='http://server:7001'
    • export WLS_USERNAME='weblogic'
    • export WLS_PASSWORD='welcome1'
  3. Local directory wlsrest.toml config file
  4. Home directory (~/, $HOME) .wlsrest.toml config file

An example wlsrest.toml or .wlsrest.toml config file:

[/home/user/] $ cat ~/.wlsrest.toml
AdminURL = "http://homeserver:7001"
Username = "homeuser"
Password = "homepassword"

Generating Configuration for the above

Both the local directory and Home (~/) directory config files can be generated for you with remy config. This provides the added benefit of encrypting the password for you:

$ remy config -h
Configure what Username, Password, and Admin Server:Port you want to send REST requests to when submitting calls on any of the other commands

Usage:
  remy config [flags]

Flags:
      --environment[=false]: Set the WLS_* environment variables
      --home[=false]: Generate/Update the ~/$HOME config file
      --local[=false]: Generate/Update the local directory's config file

Global Flags:
  -s, --adminurl="http://localhost:7001": Url for the Admin Server
  -f, --full-format[=false]: Return full format from REST server
  -p, --password="welcome1": Password for the user
  -u, --username="weblogic": Username with privileges to access AdminServer

Using it is pretty straightforward:

$ remy config --local --adminurl="http://localserver:7001" --username="weblogic" --password="welcome1"
Using the Local directory to set the ./wlsrest.toml file
$ cat wlsrest.toml
AdminURL = "http://localserver:7001"
Username = "weblogic"
Password = "{AES}VHQVFwN72jWgRYzWbnJQugUfCa6LAU0W"

NOTE: Do not attempt to assume there's some inherent security in this. The password is generated with AES, but the default key is stored in code. You can optionally override the default key with an environment variable WLS_REMYKEY:

$ export WLS_REMYKEY="My very very very awesome key!!!" # (MUST be 32 bytes in length EXACTLY)
$ remy config --local
$ cat .\wlsrest.toml
AdminURL = "http://localhost:7001"
Username = "weblogic"
Password = "{AES}BM1uj9uv1bD7KV6BXapCf1kucxDYbCU6"

Query Examples

Below are sample outputs provided by the tool itself. This is a rudimentary 1.0 of the output. I hope to provide some options for different output at some point, such as rendering a widget for use with termui. Any help would be appreciated.

Individual Application (always full-format)

In an application, we don't output sections where there is nothing, hence there are pieces missing from this particular application. You may see a lot more data or a lot less depending.

TODO List Prior to 1.0.0

  • TONS more tests (test-first is hard for me, sorry guys)
    • Command-Line Flag parsing Tests
    • Configuration Parsing / Flag handling
  • Pretty print formatting for responses
    • Possible termui implementation
  • Enrich documentation across the board
  • Configure downloadable releases
