Spring Integration Splunk Sample

This sample demonstrates the usage of the Spring Integration Splunk adapters.

Requirements

Splunk Server

You need to install or have access to a Splunk Server. You can download Splunk from:

• http://www.splunk.com/download

Data Inputs

Depending on your Splunk Server installation, you may have to open up a TCP by adding an additional data input. E.g. the sample uses TCP port 9999.

For instructions please see:

• http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Data/Monitornetworkports

Spring Integration Splunk dependencies

The sample application depends on the Spring Integration Splunk support. As of Oct 1, 2012, the dependencies for Spring Integration Splunk are available through the SpringSource Maven Repository:

• https://repo.springsource.org/simple/libs-snapshot-local/org/springframework/integration/spring-integration-splunk/0.5.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT

However, if you prefer, you can manually build the Spring Integration Splunk project. In order order to do so, follow the following steps:

1. Change to folder spring-integration-extensions/spring-integration-splunk
2. Execute ./gradlew publish

This should install the Spring Integration Splunk jar files to your local Maven repository. Please see the Spring Integration Splunk project for further information.

Generate the Eclipse project:

Now you can generate the Eclipse project for the provided sample:

1. Change to folder samples/splunk
2. Execute ./gradlew eclipse

Run the example applications

1. Update the Splunk server info in src/main/resources/org/springframework/integration/samples/splunk/SplunkCommon-context.xml
2. Run the main classes.

You may want to run the Outbound Channel Adapter application first in order to push some data into Splunk. After that, run the Inbound Channel Adapter application to read the data.
