Prerequisites

  • Java 11 SDK

Quick Start

Apache Ignite 3 follows standard guidelines for multi-module Gradle projects, so it can be built by using the following command from the project root directory:

./gradlew clean build

This command builds a project and performs a few additional actions, for example it also runs tests. The build runs faster if these actions are disabled as described in the next section.

To start an ignite-3 instance, package Apache Ignite 3 as described below and then follow the user guide.

Building Ignite

Apache Ignite 3 follows standard guidelines for multi-module Gradle projects, so it can be built by using the following command from the project root directory (the tests are disabled with -x test -x integrationTest options):

./gradlew clean build -x test -x integrationTest

For a really fast build some other actions can be disabled too:

./gradlew clean build -x assembleDist -x distTar -x distZip -x check

Running sanity checks

Run all checks:

./gradlew clean check

Skip all checks:

./gradlew clean build -x check

Code style

Code style is checked with Gradle Checkstyle Plugin.

It is enabled by default and is bound to check task.

Build project without code style check:

./gradlew clean build -x checkstyleMain -x checkstyleIntegrationTest -x checkstyleTest -x checkstyleTestFixtures

Run code style checks only:

./gradlew checkstyleMain checkstyleIntegrationTest checkstyleTest checkstyleTestFixtures

Code style check results are generated at:

  • <mudule-dir>/build/reports/checkstyle/

Spotbugs

The project is checked for bugs with Spotbugs Gradle Plugin.

Plugin is enabled by default and is bound to build task.

Note that currently only main sources are validated with Spotbugs.

Build project without spotbugs checks:

./gradlew clean build -x spotbugsMain

Run spotbugs checks only:

./gradlew spotbugsMain

PMD

Static code analyzer is run with Apache Gradle PMD Plugin.

./gradlew pmdMain pmdTest

PMD check result (only if there are any violations) is generated at <module-name>/build/reports/pmd/.

Running tests

Run unit tests only:

./gradlew clean test

Run unit + integration tests:

./gradlew clean test integrationTest

Run integration tests only:

./gradlew clean integrationTest

Checking and generating Javadoc

Javadoc is generated and checked for correctness with Gradle Javadoc Plugin.

Build Javadoc site (found in build/docs/aggregateJavadoc/index.html):

./gradlew aggregateJavadoc

If you don't need to aggregate all javadoc you can use javadoc task and find generated artifacts in each module (for example modules/api/build/docs/javadoc)

./gradlew javadoc

Setting up IntelliJ Idea project

You can quickly import Ignite project to your IDE using the root build.gradle file. In IntelliJ, choose Open Project from the Quick Start box or choose Open... from the File menu and select the root build.gradle file.

After opening the project in IntelliJ, double check that the Java SDK is properly configured for the project:

  • Open the File menu and select Project Structure...
  • In the SDKs section, ensure that JDK 11 is selected (create one if none exist)
  • In the Project section, make sure the project language level is set to 11.0 as Ignite makes use of several Java 11 language features

Apache Ignite 3 uses machine code generation for some of its modules. Occasionally, IDEs may fail to trigger this code generation. In this case, run a gradle build command from the command line. Subsequent builds can be performed from IDE without problems.

Use prebuilt IntelliJ Idea run configurations

The Apache Ignite 3 project contains prebuilt IntelliJ Idea run configurations that can be useful in common cases.

These configurations are stored in .run root folder and committed to GIT repo.

NOTE: DO NOT MODIFY THESE CONFIGURATION FILES MANUALLY.

For modification use Idea Edit Configurations... option.

Code structure

High-level modules structure and detailed modules description can be found in the modules readme.

Packaging

Change the <version> placeholder into the version you'd like to use.

Zip packaging

./gradlew clean allDistZip

Uber zip package will be located in packaging/build/distributions.

If you wand to build CLI, you can do it with:

./gradlew clean packaging-cli:distZip

Zip package will be located in packaging/cli/build/distributions.

For Ignite node:

./gradlew clean packaging-db:distZip

Zip package will be located in packaging/db/build/distributions.

You can build zip and run CLI with the following commands:

./gradlew clean packaging-cli:distZip 
cd packaging/cli/build/distributions
unzip ignite3-cli-<version>
cd ignite3-cli-<version>
./bin/ignite3

To build a zip file with ignite-runner and run it:

./gradlew clean packaging-db:distZip
cd packaging/db/build/distributions
unzip ignite3-db-<version>
cd ignite3-db-<version>
./bin/ignite3db start

To stop the started node run:

./bin/ignite3db stop

RPM/DEB packaging

There is also RPM/DEB packaging for Ignite. To build those packages run:

./gradlew clean buildDeb buildRpm -x check

ignite3-cli packages are located in packaging/cli/build/distributions/ and ignite3-db packages in packaging/db/build/distributions/.

To install RPM packages run:

rpm -i ignite3-cli-<version>.noarch.rpm
rpm -i ignite3-db-<version>.noarch.rpm

To install DEB packages run:

dpkg --install ignite3-cli_<version>_all.deb
dpkg --install ignite3-db_<version>_all.deb

Run ignite3db service:

service ignite3db start

Stop ignite3db service:

service ignite3db stop

Use CLI:

ignite3

To uninstall RPM packages run:

rpm -e ignite3-cli
rpm -e ignite3-db

To uninstall DEB packages run:

dpkg --remove ignite3-cli
dpkg --remove ignite3-db

Docker image

Gradle build also provides the task that can build docker image. To run this task make sure you have docker installed.

./gradlew clean docker -x test -x check

Run docker container with ignite node:

docker run -it --rm -p 10300:10300 -p 10800:10800 apacheignite/ignite3

There's a sample docker compose file which allows to run 3 nodes in a cluster in the packaging/docker directory. You can also use CLI from the docker image using cli parameter and connect to nodes using their names from the docker network.

docker compose -f packaging/docker/docker-compose.yml up -d
docker run -it --rm --net ignite3_default apacheignite/ignite3 cli
> connect http://node1:10300
> cluster init --cluster-name cluster --meta-storage-node node1 --meta-storage-node node2 --meta-storage-node node3

How to launch multiple nodes on the same machine

The easiest way to start as many nodes as you want is to use the docker-compose file located in the packaging/docker directory. If instead you want to start nodes manually, you can use the following commands:

./gradlew clean allDistZip
mkdir ignite-3-cluster
cd ignite-3-cluster
unzip ../packaging/build/distributions/ignite3-<version>.zip

This is what you‘ve already done when you’ve launched single-node Ignite cluster. Now you need to copy node directory as many times as you want to start nodes. Then you need to change the name of the node in the etc/ignite-config.conf file in each node directory.

Let's first rename current node directory to node1 and copy it to node2 and node3:

mv ignite3-db-<version> node1
cp -r node1 node2
cp -r node1 node3

After that you have to change the name of the node in etc/vars.env file in each node directory:

Linux:

sed -i 's/NODE_NAME=defaultNode/NODE_NAME=node1/' node1/etc/vars.env
sed -i 's/NODE_NAME=defaultNode/NODE_NAME=node2/' node2/etc/vars.env
sed -i 's/NODE_NAME=defaultNode/NODE_NAME=node3/' node3/etc/vars.env

MacOS:

sed -i '' 's/NODE_NAME=defaultNode/NODE_NAME=node1/' node1/etc/vars.env
sed -i '' 's/NODE_NAME=defaultNode/NODE_NAME=node2/' node2/etc/vars.env
sed -i '' 's/NODE_NAME=defaultNode/NODE_NAME=node3/' node3/etc/vars.env

Each node binds to its set of ports: HTTP, HTTPS(if configured), internal TCP for communication between nodes, and client TCP. By default the following configuration is used:

clientConnector.port = 10800,
network.port = 3344,
rest: { port = 10300, ssl.port = 10400 }

If you want to start nodes on the same machine, you have to change the ports in the etc/ignite-config.conf file in each node directory.

You can do it manually or use the following commands:

Linux:

sed -i 's/port=10300/port=10301/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i 's/port=10300/port=10302/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i 's/port=10300/port=10303/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

sed -i 's/port=3344/port=3301/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i 's/port=3344/port=3302/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i 's/port=3344/port=3303/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

sed -i 's/port=10800/port=10801/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i 's/port=10800/port=10802/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i 's/port=10800/port=10803/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

sed -i '/netClusterNodes=\[/,/\]/s/"localhost:3344"/"localhost:3301", "localhost:3302", "localhost:3303"/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '/netClusterNodes=\[/,/\]/s/"localhost:3344"/"localhost:3301", "localhost:3302", "localhost:3303"/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '/netClusterNodes=\[/,/\]/s/"localhost:3344"/"localhost:3301", "localhost:3302", "localhost:3303"/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

MacOS:

sed -i '' 's/port=10300/port=10301/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' 's/port=10300/port=10302/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' 's/port=10300/port=10303/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

sed -i '' 's/port=3344/port=3301/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' 's/port=3344/port=3302/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' 's/port=3344/port=3303/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

sed -i '' 's/port=10800/port=10801/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' 's/port=10800/port=10802/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' 's/port=10800/port=10803/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

sed -i '' '/netClusterNodes=\[/,/\]/s/"localhost:3344"/"localhost:3301", "localhost:3302", "localhost:3303"/' node1/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' '/netClusterNodes=\[/,/\]/s/"localhost:3344"/"localhost:3301", "localhost:3302", "localhost:3303"/' node2/etc/ignite-config.conf
sed -i '' '/netClusterNodes=\[/,/\]/s/"localhost:3344"/"localhost:3301", "localhost:3302", "localhost:3303"/' node3/etc/ignite-config.conf

Now all the nodes are set up and you can start them with the following commands:

./node1/bin/ignite3db start
./node2/bin/ignite3db start
./node3/bin/ignite3db start

After that connect to any node with CLI:

./ignite3-cli-<version>/bin/ignite3 connect http://localhost:10301

Then you can check that all nodes see each other:

cluster topology physical

To initialize a cluster run the following command inside Ignite CLI:

cluster init 
  --cluster-name myClusterOfThreeNodes 
  --cmg-node node1 --cmg-node node2 --cmg-node node3 
  --meta-storage-node node1 --meta-storage-node node2 --meta-storage-node node3

To stop all nodes:

./node1/bin/ignite3db stop
./node2/bin/ignite3db stop
./node3/bin/ignite3db stop

Run Swagger UI with docker-compose

To run Swagger UI in docker, run the following command:

  cd modules/rest-api/openapi
  docker-compose up

Swagger UI will be available at http://localhost:8082

Release candidate verification

  1. Build all packages (this will also run unit tests and all checks)
    ./gradlew clean docker distZip allDistZip buildRpm buildDeb
  2. Go to the packaging/build/distributions directory which now contains the packaged CLI tool and Ignite
    cd packaging/build/distributions
unzip ignite3-<version>
  3. Run the tool without parameters (full list of available commands should appear)
    cd ignite3-cli-<version>
./bin/ignite3
  4. Start a node
    cd ../ignite3-db-<version>
./bin/ignite3db start
  5. Check that the new node is up and running
    cd ../ignite3-cli-<version>
./bin/ignite3 node status
  6. Stop the node
    cd ../ignite3-db-<version>
./bin/ignite3db stop
