ActiveMQ web console
We started a web based monitoring console for ActiveMQ using the AngularJS
framework via the Jolokia API that includes most of the functions of the one
included by default with ActiveMQ. It also integrates an internal stomp
client. It is easily customisable to fit a particular project based on
ActiveMQ. It is possible to deploy it by simply copying it in the webapps
folder of a particular ActiveMQ installation. It is of course Open Source
and thus feel free to contribute if you like it.
source/wiki on GitHub: https://github.com/snuids/AMQC/wiki
live demo: http://www.pi2s.be/AMQC/ (Use the IP of your local ActiveMQ,
for example 127.0.0.1 if you have a local ActiveMQ)
We only checked it with ActiveMQ 5.12, but it should be compatible with all
ActiveMQ that have the Jolokia API enabled.
Hawtio is great but it did not let us have the possibility to easily
customize it in order to build a simplified monitoring product for a
particular customer.

There was some discussion about donating stomp.js to ActiveMQ here:
http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/Code-donation-for-stomp-js-td4694260.html
I don't think anything ever came of it though.

RE: ActiveMQ web console
Posted by "A.Marchand" <a....@progeri.com>.
Hi Devlin,
Our console app simply retrieves most of what is accessible via the jolokia
api. So if the info is not displayed in one tab of our interface it is
probably not there. If it is included, displaying these particular
information on a specific page is quite easy if you simply use the same
system as us. Angular + AMQ Rest API. We don't use the cluster of brokers
technology so I cannot really go further on this but our source code is
probably smaller than 30K of javascript, so you should be able to take parts
of it in order to build your own system.
Cheers,
Arnaud

This is really nice!
My biggest complaint with web consoles for ActiveMQ and RedHats' A-MQ is the lack of unified view for critical metrics across a cluster of brokers. Things like process cpu load, store/temp usage, # of connections, producers, consumers, and enqueue/dequeue count are essential, and as a platform administrator, that's what I want to see in a single view, no scrolling, switching between pages, yada, yada. Not sure if JON/RHQ provides that, but those options are a bit heavy weight anyway, so we're avoiding for now.
Two questions:
1) I could not tell from the screen shots, but this tool does not appear to provide such feature, does it?
2) Is stomp.js stable? I understand it's no longer supported.

I wonder what will take to make it compatible with Artemis. it would
be cool as well.

Hi Christopher,
Nothing really new here. We are using this console for our own purpose on
more than 80 servers and are quite happy with the stability of it. Do you
think that it could be possible to list it as a third party monitoring
console on the ActiveMQ webpage
(http://activemq.apache.org/how-can-i-monitor-activemq.html) ? It would give
us more visibility and a chance to enroll more enthusiastic devs in order to
improve the product.
Target: https://github.com/snuids/AMQC/wiki
Cheers,
Arnaud

Re: ActiveMQ web console

There was some talk in another thread on the dev list about a possible
donation of AMQC. I had mentioned this in that same thread but if the
project does get donated I would think making it into a separate ActiveMQ
sub project would be best. Then it could support both ActiveMQ 5.x and
eventually Artemis as well as be released independently.
Also, with AMQC as a separate project the current webconsole could stay as
is and continue to be bundled with ActiveMQ for now and if the community
eventually decides that AMQC is a better alternative after a period of time
(as Tim said, it needs to be proven and we need user feedback), then the
old webconsole could be deprecated/removed.

If it works better than the current web console, I'd be in favor of
deploying both and recommending the new one (and maybe eventually deploying
only this new console, if it really does turn out to be a full
replacement), once it's had a long enough shake-out period to fix any bugs
and gain confidence that it really does meet most people's needs.
But we're obviously still a long way from being ready to consider that
possibility; for now, it looks primising but is unproven, and we need
people to try it and say whether it really does work better (and how it
could be improved).

Re: ActiveMQ web console

Interesting point.
Jetty is a technology used by the current webconsole, so yes disabling the
same disables the webconsole. That leads to the question, "is there any
issue with changing that dependency to jolokia?"
Anyway, are we even talking about replacing the existing webconsole, or did
I read too much into the wording on the wiki for AMQC?

The web console doesn't work with Jetty disabled, and this doesn't work
with Jolokia disabled. Is the difference between those two statements
really as big as you've made it out to be?
The simple fact of having some well-documented dependencies doesn't seem
like a deal-breaker to me...

Re: ActiveMQ web console

I like the look-and-feel of this console, based on the screen-shots at
https://github.com/snuids/AMQC/wiki.
It's very interesting that this tool works entirely out of the browser as
well.
All of the information displayed is obtained via jolokia, is that correct?
And all administration also operates via jolokia?
That would be a concern for a web-console, in my opinion, which should work
with any configuration of ActiveMQ, even when jolokia is disabled. With
that said, even if this is not great as a web-console, it is a welcome tool
for ActiveMQ users.

ActiveMQ 5.13.0 has been upgraded to the latest Jetty 9.2.x version. It
has been released and will be formally announced as soon as the binaries
are mirrored everywhere (by tomorrow).

Re: ActiveMQ web console
Posted by "A.Marchand" <a....@progeri.com>.
In fact, the password never reaches the demo host server, because the angular
demo application that you get from the host site runs in your browser. If
you check the network flow from your browser, you will see that nothing is
posted to the host. The angular app simply makes Rest Call to your local
broker and thus the only traffic from the host server is the one used to get
the html pages and scripts back to your browser. All the other connections
are local connections on your own local network.
Concerning the CORS problem, I banged my head a little against the wall
because the current jetty provided with ActiveMQ is not the latest one and I
am not sure that it is possible to configure it to work properly (The
version is deprecated). On the other hand, what we are doing with our own
brokers is to simply copy the folder in the web apps of the broker itself
because this way, the site that makes the rest call is hosted has the same
origin as the Jolokia API. (Same port and same IP)
We will update the Wiki as soon as we find a better way to do it.
Thanks for the positive remarks,
