If you want DropWizard to print out a banner in the console during app startup, you can add a file called banner.txt
in src/main/resources
. Use the following link to generate a banner:
Run XDropWizardApplication
in Eclipse. Add a program arg: server xdropwizard.yml
.
Run XDropWizardApplication
in IntelliJ. Add a program arg: server xdropwizard.yml
.
You need to set the working directory to XDropWizard
for the app in IntelliJ (Run ==> Edit Configurations...).
cd ~/path/to/project/XDropWizard
mvn clean package
$ java -jar target/xdropwizard.jar server xdropwizard.yml
http://localhost:9090/service/hello-world
http://localhost:9090/admin/
http://localhost:9090/admin/healthcheck
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/gc
Serving static content such as images, html, css, javascript and binary files from you XDropWizard Webservice is possible in addition to the normal JSON resources
typical for a webservice. DropWizard names static content as "Assets" and all you need to do is place them on the classpath in a folder called assets
. In our case
we simply add the assets
folder to src/main/resources
and Maven takes care of adding the folder and its contents to the classpath during the build.
Either your service or your static assets can be served from the root path, but not both. The latter is useful when using Dropwizard to back a Javascript application
as is the case with XDropWizard. To enable it, move your service to a sub-URL. Note that all webservice calls will now need service
at the root of the URL. This only applies to the
non-admin port however.
http:
rootPath: /service/* # Default is /*
Then use an extended AssetsBundle constructor to serve resources in the assets folder from the root path. index.htm
is served as the default page. You need to include the following
line of code in the Service
class in the initialize
method:
bootstrap.addBundle(new AssetsBundle("/assets/", "/"));
In order to keep the assets
folder a bit organized, we can add subfolders to it. Our assets
folder contains img
, js
, and css
subfolders. Our assets
folder also contains
a special-case file called index.htm
. By default, DropWizard serves this as the default HTML page.
Finally, once DropWizard is running, you can access the static content via the following URLS:
http://localhost:9090
http://localhost:9090/img/favicon.png
http://localhost:9090/img/logo_60.png
http://localhost:9090/css/main.css
http://localhost:9090/sample.html
BTW, the HTML file index.html
contains all the links referenced in this README file providing a nice overview of all the demonstrated functionality. If you run this
DropWizard application as described above, you should be able to click on all the links displayed on index.html
at the following URL:
http://localhost:9090
Another approach is to serve all static content from a webserver such as Apache HTTP or nginx, placed in front of the DropWizard instance. This however has the disadvantage of spreading your app's content over several places, and the configuration and maintenance is more complex. In certain cases it may make sense though. Gary Rowe blogged about how it can be done with nginx here.
Sundial is a lightweight Java job scheduling framework. Read all about it here: https://github.com/timmolter/Sundial.
Integrating Sundial into a DropWizard instance requires minimal setup, and once it's all configured and running, the scheduling and automatic running of jobs is straight forward and stable. For those not familiar with Sundial, it is a simplified fork of Quartz developed by Knowm. A lot of the bloat and confusion of configuring Quartz was removed in creating Sundial and a convenient wrapper around jobs was added to enable more modular job building and organization. Sundial creates a threadpool on application startup and uses it for background jobs.
Integration is made convenient with the dropwizard-sundial project.
Add the dropwizard-sundial library as a dependency to your pom.xml
file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.knowm</groupId>
<artifactId>dropwizard-sundial</artifactId>
<version>4.0.0</version>
</dependency>
- Add the Sundial Bundle in the initialize method.
@Override
public void initialize(Bootstrap<XDropWizardApplicationConfiguration> bootstrap) {
...
bootstrap.addBundle(new SundialBundle<XDropWizardApplicationConfiguration>() {
@Override
public SundialConfiguration getSundialConfiguration(XDropWizardApplicationConfiguration configuration) {
return configuration.getSundialConfiguration();
}
});
}
- Add
SundialConfiguration
to your configuration file.
// Sundial
@Valid
@NotNull
public SundialConfiguration sundialConfiguration = new SundialConfiguration();
@JsonProperty("sundial")
public SundialConfiguration getSundialConfiguration() {
return sundialConfiguration;
}
public class SampleJob extends org.knowm.sundial.Job {
@Override
public void doRun() throws JobInterruptException {
// Do something interesting...
}
}
@CronTrigger(cron = "0/5 * * * * ?")
@SimpleTrigger(repeatInterval = 30, timeUnit = TimeUnit.SECONDS)
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<job-scheduling-data>
<schedule>
<!-- job with cron trigger -->
<job>
<name>SampleJob3</name>
<job-class>com.foo.bar.jobs.SampleJob3</job-class>
<concurrency-allowed>true</concurrency-allowed>
</job>
<trigger>
<cron>
<name>SampleJob3-Trigger</name>
<job-name>SampleJob3</job-name>
<cron-expression>*/15 * * * * ?</cron-expression>
</cron>
</trigger>
<!-- job with simple trigger -->
<job>
<name>SampleJob2</name>
<job-class>com.foo.bar.jobs.SampleJob2</job-class>
<job-data-map>
<entry>
<key>MyParam</key>
<value>42</value>
</entry>
</job-data-map>
</job>
<trigger>
<simple>
<name>SampleJob2-Trigger</name>
<job-name>SampleJob2</job-name>
<repeat-count>5</repeat-count>
<repeat-interval>5000</repeat-interval>
</simple>
</trigger>
</schedule>
</job-scheduling-data>
This job is slightly more complicated and it demonstrates two nice features of Sundial. First it logs the value for myParam which it gets from jobs.xml.
Second it uses a JobAction
and passes it a parameter via the JobContext
. Using JobAction
s is a good way to reuse common job actions across many different
jobs, mixing and matching if desired. This keeps your jobs organized.
public class SampleJob3 extends Job {
private final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SampleJob3.class);
@Override
public void doRun() throws JobInterruptException {
JobContext context = getJobContext();
String valueAsString = context.get("MyParam");
logger.info("valueAsString = " + valueAsString);
Integer valueAsInt = Integer.valueOf(valueAsString);
logger.info("valueAsInt = " + valueAsInt);
context.put("MyValue", new Integer(123));
new SampleJobAction().run();
}
}
In your *.yml
DropWizard configuration file, you can easily set some helpful parameters to customize Sundial as DropWizard starts up, right from the config file:
sundial:
thread-pool-size: 5
shutdown-on-unload: true
start-delay-seconds: 0
start-scheduler-on-load: true
global-lock-on-load: false
annotated-jobs-package-name: com.foo.bar.jobs
By defining some tasks and hooking them into DropWizard you can asynchronously trigger your jobs and/or put a global lock and unlock on the Sundial scheduler.
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/locksundialscheduler
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/unlocksundialscheduler
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/startjob?JOB_NAME=MyJob"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/startjob?JOB_NAME=SampleJob3&MyParam=9999"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/stopjob?JOB_NAME=SampleJob3"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/removejob?JOB_NAME=SampleJob3"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/addjob?JOB_NAME=SampleJob3&JOB_CLASS=org.knowm.xdropwizard.jobs.SampleJob3&MyParam=888"
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/removejobtrigger?TRIGGER_NAME=SampleJob3-Trigger
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/addcronjobtrigger?TRIGGER_NAME=SampleJob3-Trigger&JOB_NAME=SampleJob3&CRON_EXPRESSION=0/45%20*%20*%20*%20*%20?"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:9090/admin/tasks/addcronjobtrigger?TRIGGER_NAME=SampleJob3-Trigger&JOB_NAME=SampleJob3" --data-urlencode "CRON_EXPRESSION=0/45 * * * * ?"
Note: If you intend to asynchronously stop jobs, read this: The Job termination mechanism works by setting a flag that the Job should be terminated, but it is up to the logic in the Job to decide at what point termination should occur. Therefore, in any long-running job that you anticipate the need to terminate, put the method call checkTerminated() at an appropriate location.
You may want access to a global object such as a REST client, and you don't want to have to reinstantiate that object every single time the job is run. It can be done quite easily by
putting the object in the ServletContext during app startup in the run
method. Since Sundial is bound to the ServletContext's lifecycle, it has direct access to the ServletContext.
The ServletContext has a String, Object
map for holding these global objects. The following code snippets show how to add an object to the ServletContext in the run
method and how
to access it from a job.
@Override
public void run(XDropWizardApplicationConfiguration configuration, Environment environment) throws Exception {
logger.info("running DropWizard!");
// Add object to ServletContext for accessing from Sundial Jobs
environment.getApplicationContext().setAttribute("MyKey", "MyObject");
...
}
@CronTrigger(cron = "0/25 * * * * ?")
public class MyJob extends Job {
private final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyJob.class);
@Override
public void doRun() throws JobInterruptException {
// pull object from ServletContext, which was added in the apllication's run method
String myObject = (String) SundialJobScheduler.getServletContext().getAttribute("MyKey");
logger.info("MyJob says: " + myObject);
}
}
Yank is a very easy-to-use yet flexible Java persistence layer for JDBC-compatible databases build on top of org.apache.DBUtils. Usage is very simple: define DB connectivity properties, create a DAO and POJO class, and execute queries.
Integrating Yank into DropWizard requires just a minimum of setup.
The DB.properties
file should be a familiar sight for people used to working with JDBC-compatible databases such as MySQL, HSQLDB, Oracle, and Postgres.
Put a file called DB.properties
on your classpath. See DB.properties
in src/main/resources
. In this file, you define the properties needed to connect to your
database such as the JDBC driver class name, the user and password. Yank will load this file at startup and handle connecting to the database.
Put a file called SQL.properties
on your classpath. See SQL.properties
in src/main/resources
. The SQL.properties
file is a place to centrally store your
SQL statements. There are a few advantages to this. First, all your statements are found at a single place so you can see tham all at once. Secondly, if you want
to switch your underlying database you'll need to rewrite all your SQL statements. If you have a SQL.properties
file, you can just create a second one for the new
database and easily make the transition. Of course, you can write all your SQL statements in the Java DAO classes directly as well.
Yank requires that you have a single POJO for each table in your database. The POJO's fields should match the column names and data types of the matching table. Add the getter and setters as well.
public class Book {
private String title;
private String author;
private double price;
/** Pro-tip: In Eclipse, generate all getters and setters after defining class fields: Right-click --> Source --> Generate Getters and Setters... */
public String getTitle() {
return title;
}
public void setTitle(String title) {
this.title = title;
}
public String getAuthor() {
return author;
}
public void setAuthor(String author) {
this.author = author;
}
public double getPrice() {
return price;
}
public void setPrice(double price) {
this.price = price;
}
}
It is not required by Yank, but it really helps to organize your persistence layer code to have one DAO class for each table. The DAO class is just a collection
of public static methods that each interact with Yank's DBProxy
class. Note that in some of the following methods, the SQL statements are written directly as a
String, while others come from the SQL.properties
file on the classpath. The presence of the word key
in the DBProxy
method indicates that the SQL
statement is being fetched from the SQL.properties
.
public class BooksDAO {
public static int createBooksTable() {
String sqlKey = "BOOKS_CREATE_TABLE";
return DBProxy.executeSQLKey("myconnectionpoolname", sqlKey, null);
}
public static int insertBook(Book book) {
Object[] params = new Object[] { book.getTitle(), book.getAuthor(), book.getPrice() };
String SQL = "INSERT INTO BOOKS (TITLE, AUTHOR, PRICE) VALUES (?, ?, ?)";
return DBProxy.executeSQL("myconnectionpoolname", SQL, params);
}
public static List<Book> selectAllBooks() {
String SQL = "SELECT * FROM BOOKS";
return DBProxy.queryObjectListSQL("myconnectionpoolname", SQL, Book.class, null);
}
public static Book selectRandomBook() {
String sqlKey = "BOOKS_SELECT_RANDOM_BOOK";
return DBProxy.querySingleObjectSQLKey("myconnectionpoolname", sqlKey, Book.class, null);
}
}
In order to access objects from the database and return them as JSON, you need a resource class for it. It makes most sense to create a resource class for
each table in your database. Don't forget to add this resource in the Service
class!
@Path("book")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class YankBookResource {
@GET
@Path("random")
public Book getRandomBook() {
return BooksDAO.selectRandomBook();
}
@GET
@Path("all")
public List<Book> getAllBooks() {
return BooksDAO.selectAllBooks();
}
}
YankManager.java
is the class responsible for setting up Yank
and it is hooked into DropWizard in the Service
class by
including the following line of code:
YankManager ym = new YankManager(configuration.getYankConfiguration()); // A DropWizard Managed Object
environment.manage(ym); // Assign the management of the object to the Service
environment.addResource(new YankBookResource());
In your .yml
DropWizard configuration file, you can easily define the connection pools and SQL statement files that Yank uses:
yank:
-
dbPropsFileName: DB.properties
sqlPropsFileName: SQL.properties
-
poolName: mypool
dbPropsFileName: DB.properties
sqlPropsFileName: SQL.properties
Finally, once DropWizard is running, you can access the JSON objects via the following URLS:
http://localhost:9090/service/book/random
http://localhost:9090/service/book/all
XChart is a light-weight and convenient library for plotting data. We use it in Dropwizard to dynamically create line, scatter, and bar charts and to provide the resulting bitmaps (PNGs, JPGs, etc.) as URL endpoint resources.
There is no required setup or initialization as in the case with Sundial and Yank. You only need to create a resource for each chart you are providing.
This example XChartResource class creates an XChart QuickChart
and sends the image as a byte[] using XChart
's BitmapEncoder
class. Don't forget to add this resource in the Service
class!
@Path("xchart")
public class XChartResource {
@GET
@Path("random.png")
@Produces("image/png")
public Response getRandomLineChart() throws IOException {
Chart chart = QuickChart.getChart("XChart Sample - Random Walk", "X", "Y", null, null, getRandomWalk(105));
return Response.ok().type("image/png").entity(BitmapEncoder.getPNGBytes(chart)).build();
}
private double[] getRandomWalk(int numPoints) {
double[] y = new double[numPoints];
for (int i = 1; i < y.length; i++) {
y[i] = y[i - 1] + Math.random() - .5;
}
return y;
}
}
Finally, once DropWizard is running, you can access the XChart plots as PNGs via the following URL:
http://localhost:9090/service/xchart/random.png
http://localhost:9090/xchart.html
Dynamic HTML pages in DropWizard are referred to as "Views". These are like dynamic web pages produced by php or jsp/Servlets. Before adding Views to DropWizard
, you need to include the following line of code in the Service
class in the initialize
method:
bootstrap.addBundle(new ViewBundle());
You'll also need to add the dropwizard-views
dependency to the pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.yammer.dropwizard</groupId>
<artifactId>dropwizard-views</artifactId>
<version>whatever</version>
</dependency>
Just as we need a Resource
class for JSON endpoints, a Resource
class is needed for "Views" too.
@Path("view/book")
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
public class ViewBookResource {
@GET
@Timed
@CacheControl(noCache = true)
public BookView bookView() {
return new BookView();
}
}
Don't forget to add this resource in the Service
class!
The view class provides both the freemaker template and the dynamic data for the page. Here a Book
object is hardcoded,
but it could easily come from a database. Any URL parameters can be passed from the Resource
to the View
via its constructor.
public class BookView extends View {
public BookView() {
super("ftl/book.ftl");
}
public Book getBook() {
Book book = new Book();
book.setTitle("Cryptonomicon");
book.setAuthor("Neal Stephenson");
book.setPrice(23.99);
return book;
}
}
book.ftl
is the path of the template relative to the class name. If this class was org.knowm.xdropwizard.views.PersonView
, Dropwizard
would then look for the file src/main/resources/org/knowm/xdropwizard/views/person.ftl.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<#include "../includes/head.ftl">
</head>
<body>
<div>
<#include "../includes/header.ftl">
<div id="markdown">

</table>
</div>
<#include "../includes/footer.ftl">
</div>
<#include "../includes/cdn-scripts.ftl">
</body>
</html>
Notice the #include
sections. This allows you to set up common page elements, thus avaoiding copy and pasting header, footer and script sections in all your FTLs.
Since the view is a Resource
, we need to include service
in the URL:
http://localhost:9090/service/view/book
For pseudo-real-time updates to an HTML page, AJAX comes in handy. Adding AJAX to a web application requires 2 compnents:
- an HTML page with a JQuery AJAX query
- a backend JSON endpoint
This page uses JQuery to fetch JSON, update contents of the numberplaceholder
span, and repeat every one second.

Flot is a pure JavaScript plotting library for jQuery, with a focus on simple usage, attractive looks and interactive features. It's wonderful for web-based plots.
Integrating flot
into a webapp requires adding the latest javascript
file(s) from flot
, which can be grabbed from their GitHub page.
We place the jquery.flot.js
file into a js
folder in src/main.resources
. There are many extra flot
js files used to add extra functionaity to flot.
There are just two main things needed to make a flot chart:
- a link to
jquery.flot.js
- the
placeholder
div

AngularJS is a Java-script-based thick client providing a model-view-controller framework for web applications.
Integrating AngularJS
into a webapp requires adding some Javascript files to the generated HTML and the integration of Javascript acting as the controller (in MVC) between the view (HTML) and the model (the JSON webservice).
<html ng-app="sampleApp">
<head>
<title>Sample AngularJS Page</title>

<link href="/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<script src="/js/books_angular.js"></script>
</head>

<h1>Sample AngularJS Page</h1>
<p>This is a sample html page demonstrating AngularJS.</p>
<div ng-controller="sampleAppController">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-3 col-md-2 sidebar">
<table class="table">
<tr ng-repeat="book in books">
<td>{{book.author}}</td>
<td>{{book.title}}</td>
<td>{{book.price}}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
angular.module('sampleApp', [])
.controller('sampleAppController', ['$scope', '$http', function($scope, $http) {
$scope.books = [];
$http.get('/service/book/all').success(function(data) {
console.log(data);
$scope.books = data;
}).
error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log(data);
});
}]);
The controller defines a dependency to the $scope
and the $http
module. An HTTP GET request to the /service/book/all
endpoint is carried out with the get method. It returns a $promise object with a success and an error method. Once successful, the JSON data is assigned to $scope.books to make it available in the template in books.html. The 'ng-repeat' creates a multi-rowed table to match the data fetched from the backend.
Bower is used to manage the front end dependencies including JS and CSS libs. It's like Maven, but for front end web technology. Dependencies are defined in .../assets/bower.json
Read all about bower
in this concise writeup: http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/getting-started-bower
npm install -g bower
cd ~/path/to/XDropWizard/src/main/resources/assets
bower update
This will download and put the JS dependencies found in .../assets/bower.json
into a folder called: .../assets/bower_components
. You can then reference the JS files in your HTML. The bower.json
allows to you set specific versions of the dependencies if you want to. Otherwise the "*"
indicates to bower to download the latest version.
See .../assets/books.html
on how to integrate the bower dependencies into an HTML document.
Note that normally you would add the src/main/resources/assets/bower_components
to your .gitignore
file and not check these dependencies into your source repository and you would run bower update
to get those dependencies. For this project I left a lot of the bower-installed files in the repo so this app runs flawlessly out of the box.
Angular-nvD3 is designed to make it easier to work with nvd3.js re-usable charting library. The Angular JS directive allows you to easily customize your charts via JSON API. Bower is used to pull in the necessary dependencies with the line: "angular-nvd3": "latest"
.
The angular-nvd3
project has a fundamental difference from the others in the base approach it is created. This directive provides a two-way binding mechanism for all chart options over the full nvd3 core as well as chart data. It allows you to interactively customize chart options or data from the controller on the fly via JSON.
Integrating angular-nvd3
into your app requires a HTML page and a JS file. Here is the second example which pulls data from the webservice:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="plunker">

For long running Asynchronous requests and responses, we can use Jersey's Asynchronous Services and Clients.
@Path("/async")
public class AsyncResource {
private static int numberOfSuccessResponses = 0;
private static int numberOfFailures = 0;
private static Throwable lastException = null;
@GET
public void asyncGetWithTimeout(@Suspended final AsyncResponse asyncResponse) {
asyncResponse.register(new CompletionCallback() {
@Override
public void onComplete(Throwable throwable) {
if (throwable == null) {
// no throwable - the processing ended successfully
// (response already written to the client)
numberOfSuccessResponses++;
} else {
numberOfFailures++;
lastException = throwable;
}
}
});
new Thread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
String result = veryExpensiveOperation();
asyncResponse.resume(result);
}
private String veryExpensiveOperation() {
// ... very expensive operation
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return "Hello Async!";
}
}).start();
}
}
public class AsyncTest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException {
AsyncTest asyncTest = new AsyncTest();
asyncTest.go();
}
private void go() throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException {
Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient();
final Future<String> entityFuture = client.target("http://localhost:9090/service/async").request().async().get(new InvocationCallback<String>() {
@Override
public void completed(String response) {
System.out.println("Response entity '" + response + "' received.");
}
@Override
public void failed(Throwable throwable) {
System.out.println("Invocation failed.");
throwable.printStackTrace();
}
});
System.out.println(entityFuture.get());
}
}
To add file uploading capabilities to your webapp using DropWizard (and Jersey) there are a couple of preliminary steps you needs to take first:
- Add
bootstrap.addBundle(new MultiPartBundle());
to yourinitialize()
method in yourApplication
class - Add the
dropwizard-forms
dependency to thepom
file
@Path("/file")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class FileUploadResource {
private final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(FileUploadResource.class);
@POST
@Path("/upload")
@Consumes(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA)
public Response uploadFile(@FormDataParam("file") InputStream uploadedInputStream, @FormDataParam("file") FormDataContentDisposition fileDetail) {
String fileName = fileDetail.getFileName();
String output = "File received : " + fileName;
logger.info(output);
return Response.status(200).entity(output).build();
}
}
Finally, once DropWizard is running, you can post a file via a form the following URL:
