In the Xconf RDK community instance , the data service and Admin UI is added standalone jetty services. This documentation explains the steps that were followed to achieve it.

KeyPoints

• According to this tutorial, Cassandra DB and the two xconf applications are deployed in the same server
• The xconf applications – data service and admin ui are deployed in two separate jetty instances
• Both the applications are deployed as separate processes

Prerequisites

• Required: Xconf dataservice and Xconf admin ui war files
• Environment: Ubuntu 18.04
• Jetty 9.4.37
• Install Java
• Setup Cassandra DB

Steps to be followed

Deploy Xconf-data-service wit

• Create folder ‘jetty’ and install jetty in it by downloading jetty 9.4.37 version using ‘wget’ command

           cd /opt

           mkdir jetty

           cd jetty

           wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/jetty/jetty-distribution/9.4.37.v20210219/jetty-distribution-9.4.37.v20210219.tar.gz

           gzip –d jetty-distribution-9.4.37.v20210219.tar.gz

           tar -xf  jetty-distribution-9.4.37.v20210219.tar.gz--strip=1

• Copy war file to webapps folder and make it to ROOT.war. This is to
  get the application URL in the format “http://127.0.0.1:9092/queries/environments”

          To rename – sudo mv xconf-dataservice.war ROOT.war

• Copy the service.properties file to jetty home folder
  
  
• Edit start.ini in your JETTY_HOME directory with the following contents. (If we want to enable both http and https)

         --module=https
         etc/jetty-ssl.xml
        -DappConfig=service.properties
        -Djetty.logs=/opt/jetty/logs
