SPRING INTEGRATION HAZELCAST SUPPORT

IMPORTANT:: Starting with Spring Integration 6.5 the respective spring-integration-hazelcast module has been deprecated due to migrating of many Hazelcast features to the Enterprise Edition. This contradicts to the Open Source practice, therefore we just stopping support this module. The source code of the module is present in this directory for historical reasons and future considerations.

HAZELCAST EVENT-DRIVEN INBOUND CHANNEL ADAPTER

Hazelcast provides distributed data structures such as

• com.hazelcast.core.IMap,
• com.hazelcast.core.MultiMap,
• com.hazelcast.core.IList,
• com.hazelcast.core.ISet,
• com.hazelcast.core.IQueue,
• com.hazelcast.core.ITopic,
• com.hazelcast.core.ReplicatedMap.

It also provides event listeners in order to listen to the modifications performed on these data structures.

• com.hazelcast.core.EntryListener<K, V>
• com.hazelcast.core.ItemListener
• com.hazelcast.core.MessageListener

Hazelcast Event-Driven Inbound Channel Adapter listens related cache events and sends event messages to defined channel. It supports both XML and JavaConfig driven configurations.

XML Driven Configuration :

   <int-hazelcast:inbound-channel-adapter channel="mapChannel"
					  cache="map"
					  cache-events="UPDATED, REMOVED"
					  cache-listening-policy="SINGLE" />

Basically, Hazelcast Event-Driven Inbound Channel Adapter requires following attributes :

• channel : Specifies channel which message is sent.
• cache : Specifies the distributed Object reference which is listened. It is mandatory attribute.
• cache-events : Specifies cache events which are listened. It is optional attribute and its default value is ADDED. Its supported values are as follows :

1. Supported cache event types for IMap and MultiMap : ADDED, REMOVED, UPDATED, EVICTED, EVICT_ALL and CLEAR_ALL.
2. Supported cache event types for ReplicatedMap : ADDED, REMOVED, UPDATED, EVICTED.
3. Supported cache event types for IList, ISet and IQueue : ADDED, REMOVED.
4. There is no need to cache event type definition for ITopic.

• cache-listening-policy : Specifies cache listening policy as SINGLE or ALL. It is optional attribute and its default value is SINGLE. Each Hazelcast inbound channel adapter listening same cache object with same cache-events attribute, can receive a single event message or all event messages. If it is ALL, all Hazelcast inbound channel adapters listening same cache object with same cache-events attribute, will receive same event messages. If it is SINGLE, they will receive unique event messages.

Sample namespace and schemaLocation definitions are as follows :

xmlns:int-hazelcast= “http://www.springframework.org/schema/integration/hazelcast”

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/integration/hazelcast
		  https://www.springframework.org/schema/integration/hazelcast/spring-integration-hazelcast.xsd”

HAZELCAST DISTRIBUTED-SQL INBOUND CHANNEL ADAPTER

Hazelcast allows to run distributed queries on the distributed map. Hazelcast Distributed SQL Inbound Channel Adapter is a poller-driven inbound channel adapter. It runs defined distributed-sql and returns results in the light of iteration type. It supports both XML and JavaConfig driven configurations.

XML Driven Configuration :

			"name='TestName' AND surname='TestSurname'");
	messageSource.setIterationType(DistributedSQLIterationType.ENTRY);

	return messageSource;
}

Reference : https://docs.hazelcast.org/docs/latest/manual/html/distributedquery.html

HAZELCAST OUTBOUND CHANNEL ADAPTER

Hazelcast Outbound Channel Adapter listens its defined channel and writes incoming messages to related distributed cache. It expects one of cache, cache-expression or HazelcastHeaders.CACHE_NAME for distributed object definition. Supported Distributed Objects : IMap, MultiMap, ReplicatedMap, IList, ISet, IQueue and ITopic. It supports both XML and JavaConfig driven configurations.

XML Driven Configuration :

<int-hazelcast:outbound-channel-adapter channel="mapChannel" cache="distributedMap" key-expression="payload.id" extract-payload="false"/>

Basically, it requires the following attributes :

channel : Specifies channel which message is sent.

• cache : Specifies distributed object reference. It is optional attribute.
• cache-expression : Specifies distributed object via Spring Expression Language(SpEL). It is optional attribute.
• key-expression : Specifies key of K,V pair via Spring Expression Language(SpEL). It is optional attribute and required for just IMap, MultiMap and ReplicatedMap distributed data structures.
• extract-payload : Specifies whole message or just payload to send. It is optional attribute with true default value. If it is true, just payload will be written to distributed object. Otherwise, whole message will be written by covering both message header and payload.

Sample Definitions :

<int-hazelcast:outbound-channel-adapter channel="mapChannel" cache="distributedMap" key-expression="payload.id" extract-payload="false"/>

OR

<int-hazelcast:outbound-channel-adapter channel="mapChannel" cache-expression="headers['CACHE_HEADER']" key-expression="payload.key" extract-payload="true"/>

By setting distributed object name in the header, messages can be written to different distributed objects via same channel.

OR

If cache or cache-expression attributes are not defined, HazelcastHeaders.CACHE_NAME has to be set in Message.

JavaConfig Driven Configuration :

@Bean
public MessageChannel distributedMapChannel() {
	return new DirectChannel();
}

@Bean
public IMap<Integer, String> distributedMap() {
	return hzInstance().getMap("Distributed_Map");
}

@Bean
public HazelcastInstance hzInstance() {
	return Hazelcast.newHazelcastInstance();
}

@Bean
@ServiceActivator(inputChannel = "distributedMapChannel")
public HazelcastCacheWritingMessageHandler hazelcastCacheWritingMessageHandler() {
	final HazelcastCacheWritingMessageHandler handler = new HazelcastCacheWritingMessageHandler();
	handler.setDistributedObject(distributedMap());
	handler.setKeyExpression(new SpelExpressionParser().parseExpression("payload.id"));
	handler.setExtractPayload(true);

	return handler;
}

HAZELCAST LEADER ELECTION

If you need to elect a leader (e.g. for highly available message consumer where only one node should receive messages) you just need to create a LeaderInitiator. Example:

@Bean
public HazelcastInstance hazelcastInstance() {
    return Hazelcast.newHazelcastInstance();
}

@Bean
public LeaderInitiator initiator() {
    return new LeaderInitiator(hazelcastInstance());
}

Then when a node is elected leader it will send OnGrantedEvent to all application listeners. See the Spring Integration User Guide for more information on how to use those events to control messaging endpoints.

HAZELCAST MESSAGE STORE

For distributed messaging state management, for example for persistent QueueChannel or tracking Aggregator message groups, the HazelcastMessageStore implementation is provided:

@Bean
public HazelcastInstance hazelcastInstance() {
    return Hazelcast.newHazelcastInstance();
}

@Bean
public MessageGroupStore messageStore() {
    return new HazelcastMessageStore(hazelcastInstance());
}

By default the SPRING_INTEGRATION_MESSAGE_STORE IMap is used to store messages and groups key/value manner. Any custom IMap can be provided to the HazelcastMessageStore. See Spring Integration User Guide for more information about MessageStore.

HAZELCAST METADATA STORE

An implementation of a MetadataStore is available using a backing Hazelcast IMap

You can provide your own implementation of an IMap or rely on the default map created with name SPRING_INTEGRATION_METADATA_STORE.

@Bean
public HazelcastInstance hazelcastInstance() {
    return Hazelcast.newHazelcastInstance();
}

@Bean
public MetadataStore metadataStore() {
    return new HazelcastMetadataStore(hazelcastInstance());
}

The HazelcastMetadataStore implements ListenableMetadataStore which allows you to register your own listeners of type MetadataStoreListener to listen for events via addListener(MetadataStoreListener callback)

See Spring Integration User Guide for more information about the MetadataStoreListener interface.

HAZELCAST LOCK REGISTRY

An implementation of a LockRegistry is available using a backing Hazelcast distributed ILock support:

@Bean
public HazelcastInstance hazelcastInstance() {
    return Hazelcast.newHazelcastInstance();
}

@Bean
public LockRegistry lockRegistry() {
    return new HazelcastLockRegistry(hazelcastInstance());
}

When used with a shared MessageGroupStore (e.g. Aggregator store management), the HazelcastLockRegistry can be use to provide this functionality across multiple application instances, such that only one instance can manipulate the group at a time.

NOTE: For all the distributed operations the CP Subsystem must be enabled on HazelcastInstance.
