The batch-processing
quickstart shows how to use chunk oriented batch jobs to import a file to a database.
This quickstart simulates a file importation using batch jobs. To make it easy, this quickstart offers the user a way to generate files. The generated file can have its name and the number of records customized. The user can also specify if the file contains an error or not.
The job contains two tasks:
-
It imports the file using a chunk oriented approach.
-
The chunk size is set to
3
. -
The
RecordsReader
is responsible for parsing the file and create an instance ofContact
. -
The
ContactsFormatter
applies the proper case to the contact name and it also applies a mask to the phone number. -
Finally,
ContactsPersister
sends the contact instance to the database.
-
-
It logs the number of records imported.
The database schema defines that the column for name is unique. For that reason, any attempt to persist a duplicate value will throw an exception. On the second attempt to run the job, the ChunkCheckpoint
provides information to skip the contacts that were already persisted.
- H2 Database
-
This quickstart uses the H2 database included with WildFly Application Server 31. It is a lightweight, relational example datasource that is used for examples only. It is not robust or scalable, is not supported, and should NOT be used in a production environment.
The application this project produces is designed to be run on WildFly Application Server 31 or later.
All you need to build this project is Java 11.0 (Java SDK 11) or later and Maven 3.6.0 or later. See Configure Maven to Build and Deploy the Quickstarts to make sure you are configured correctly for testing the quickstarts.
In the following instructions, replace WILDFLY_HOME
with the actual path to your WildFly installation. The installation path is described in detail here: Use of WILDFLY_HOME and JBOSS_HOME Variables.
When you see the replaceable variable QUICKSTART_HOME, replace it with the path to the root directory of all of the quickstarts.
-
Open a terminal and navigate to the root of the WildFly directory.
-
Start the WildFly server with the default profile by typing the following command.
$ WILDFLY_HOME/bin/standalone.sh
NoteFor Windows, use the WILDFLY_HOME\bin\standalone.bat
script.
-
Make sure you start the WildFly server as described above.
-
Open a terminal and navigate to the root directory of this quickstart.
-
Type the following command to build the quickstart.
$ mvn clean package
-
Type the following command to deploy the quickstart.
$ mvn wildfly:deploy
This deploys the batch-processing/target/batch-processing.war
to the running instance of the server.
You should see a message in the server log indicating that the archive deployed successfully.
Access the running application in a browser at the following URL: http://localhost:8080/batch-processing/
You are presented with a simple form that allows you to generate sample files to be imported.
-
Click on Generate a new file and start import job button. This generates a new file with 10 unique records to be imported. The import job starts after the file is generated.
-
A table is displayed containing information about the task that was started. Click on the Update jobs list button and verify that the job was completed.
-
Investigate the console output. It shows that files with 10 records were processed, 3 records at a time.

Now you will simulate a file with duplicate records. This will raise an exception and stop the processing. After that, you will fix the file and continue the importing where it stopped.
-
Mark the Generate a duplicate record checkbox and click on Generate a new file and start import job button. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job failed with the following Exit Status:
Error : org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: could not execute statement
. This was caused because the job tried to insert a duplicate record at the Database. You will also seeorg.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: Unique index or primary key violation
exception stacktraces in the server log. -
Next, you will fix the file and restart that job execution. Uncheck the Generate a duplicate record checkbox and click on Generate a new file button. This will generate the file without errors.
-
Click on Restart button in the last column for that job instance in the List of Jobs table. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job was completed.
-
Review the server logs and verify that the job started from the last checkpoint.

Check the Generate a duplicate record checkbox and click on Generate a new file ans start import job button. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job failed with the following Exit Status:
Error : org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: could not execute statement
. This was caused because you tried to insert a duplicate record at the Database. -
This time you will not fix the file. Just click on Restart button again. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job was marked as
ABANDONED
this time because it was restarted once. Notice that there is a new parameter:restartedOnce=true
. This behavior was implemented inJobListener
for demonstration purposes, to prevent aFAILED
job from being restarted twice.
This quickstart includes integration tests, which are located under the src/test/
directory. The integration tests verify that the quickstart runs correctly when deployed on the server.
Follow these steps to run the integration tests.
-
Make sure you start the WildFly server, as previously described.
-
Make sure you build and deploy the quickstart, as previously described.
-
Type the following command to run the
verify
goal with theintegration-testing
profile activated.$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing
Note
|
You may also use the environment variable |
When you are finished testing the quickstart, follow these steps to undeploy the archive.
-
Make sure you start the WildFly server as described above.
-
Open a terminal and navigate to the root directory of this quickstart.
-
Type this command to undeploy the archive:
$ mvn wildfly:undeploy
Instead of using a standard WildFly server distribution, you can alternatively provision a WildFly server to deploy and run the quickstart, by activating the Maven profile named provisioned-server
when building the quickstart:
$ mvn clean package -Pprovisioned-server
The provisioned WildFly server, with the quickstart deployed, can then be found in the target/server
directory, and its usage is similar to a standard server distribution, with the simplification that there is never the need to specify the server configuration to be started.
The server provisioning functionality is provided by the WildFly Maven Plugin, and you may find its configuration in the quickstart pom.xml
:
<profile>
<id>provisioned-server</id>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId>

The integration tests included with this quickstart, which verify that the quickstart runs correctly, may also be run with a provisioned server.
Follow these steps to run the integration tests.
-
Make sure the server is provisioned.
$ mvn clean package -Pprovisioned-server
-
Start the WildFly provisioned server, this time using the WildFly Maven Plugin, which is recommended for testing due to simpler automation. The path to the provisioned server should be specified using the
jbossHome
system property.$ mvn wildfly:start -DjbossHome=target/server
-
Type the following command to run the
verify
goal with theintegration-testing
profile activated, and specifying the quickstart’s URL using theserver.host
system property, which for a provisioned server by default ishttp://localhost:8080
.$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing -Dserver.host=http://localhost:8080
-
Shutdown the WildFly provisioned server, this time using the WildFly Maven Plugin too.
$ mvn wildfly:shutdown
On OpenShift, the S2I build with Apache Maven uses an openshift
Maven profile to provision a WildFly server, deploy and run the quickstart in OpenShift environment.
The server provisioning functionality is provided by the WildFly Maven Plugin, and you may find its configuration in the quickstart pom.xml
:

This section contains the basic instructions to build and deploy this quickstart to WildFly for OpenShift or WildFly for OpenShift Online using Helm Charts.
-
You must be logged in OpenShift and have an
oc
client to connect to OpenShift -
Helm must be installed to deploy the backend on OpenShift.
Once you have installed Helm, you need to add the repository that provides Helm Charts for WildFly.
$ helm repo add wildfly https://docs.wildfly.org/wildfly-charts/
"wildfly" has been added to your repositories
$ helm search repo wildfly
NAME CHART VERSION APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
wildfly/wildfly ... ... Build and Deploy WildFly applications on OpenShift
wildfly/wildfly-common ... ... A library chart for WildFly-based applications
Log in to your OpenShift instance using the oc login
command.
The backend will be built and deployed on OpenShift with a Helm Chart for WildFly.
Navigate to the root directory of this quickstart and run the following command:
$ helm install batch-processing -f charts/helm.yaml wildfly/wildfly --wait --timeout=10m0s
NAME: batch-processing
...
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
This command will return once the application has successfully deployed. In case of a timeout, you can check the status of the application with the following command in another terminal:
oc get deployment batch-processing
The Helm Chart for this quickstart contains all the information to build an image from the source code using S2I on Java 17:
build:
uri: https://github.com/wildfly/quickstart.git
ref: main
contextDir: batch-processing
deploy:
replicas: 1
This will create a new deployment on OpenShift and deploy the application.
If you want to see all the configuration elements to customize your deployment you can use the following command:
$ helm show readme wildfly/wildfly
Get the URL of the route to the deployment.
$ oc get route batch-processing -o jsonpath="{.spec.host}"
Access the application in your web browser using the displayed URL.
Note

The Maven profile named |
The integration tests included with this quickstart, which verify that the quickstart runs correctly, may also be run with the quickstart running on OpenShift.
Note
|
The integration tests expect a deployed application, so make sure you have deployed the quickstart on OpenShift before you begin. |
Run the integration tests using the following command to run the verify
goal with the integration-testing
profile activated and the proper URL:
$ mvn verify -Pintegration-testing -Dserver.host=https://$(oc get route batch-processing --template='{{ .spec.host }}')
Note
