Spring Cloud Task 1.1.0.RELEASE is now available

Releases | Michael Minella | November 22, 2016 | ...

We are pleased to announce that Spring Cloud Task 1.1.0.RELEASE is now available via Github and the Pivotal download repository. Many thanks to all of those who contributed to this release.

Spring Cloud Task 1.1.0 offers the following features:

This is the generally available release (GA) for 1.1.0. This release addresses key enhancements to the project to allow for better coverage of operational concerns for tasks in a cloud environment. Features new to the 1.1.0 line include:

  • Updated error handling - 1.0.x stored stack traces that were the result of task executions within the TaskExecution#exitMessage field, requiring that this field perform double duty. First it was available for orchestration of tasks (similar to StepExecution#exitStatus in Spring Batch) as well as the storage of stack traces for debugging. In the 1.1.0 release, error messages have been moved to a new field TaskExecution#errorMessage so that each field has it's own, dedicated use.

  • Updated customization options for partitioned batch jobs - In the 1.0.x line for Spring Cloud Task, when launching workers as tasks, there was not a way to customize the command line arguments provided to them. This is an issue in environments like CloudFoundry where you can use command line args to customize configuration without the need to re-push your app. In the new 1.1.0 release, we provide the ability to customize command line arguments via the CommandLineArgsProvider which is similar in functionality to the EnvironmentVariablesProvider introduced in 1.0.2.

Spring Cloud Data Flow for Kubernetes 1.1 RC1 released

Releases | Thomas Risberg | November 22, 2016 | ...

On behalf of the team, I am pleased to announce the release of the first release candidate of Spring Cloud Data Flow for Kubernetes 1.1.

Spring Cloud Data Flow for Kubernetes provides support for orchestrating long-running (streaming) and short-lived (task/batch) data microservices on Kubernetes.

The most significant change for this release can be found in the Spring Cloud Deployer for Kubernetes project. Thanks to community contributions from Donovan Muller and Rémon (Ray) Sinnema, we have added support for defining volumes and volume mounts for deployed apps. We support the volume types that have a model supported by the Fabric8 Kubernetes client's kubernetes-model

The Joy of Mustache: Server Side Templates for the JVM

Engineering | Dave Syer | November 21, 2016 | ...

I don’t do much server-side templating, but when I do…​ well frankly, I tend to forget things. Every template language has its strengths and weaknesses, and they all have syntax to remember, and more frequently to forget. Recently I completed some work on the old Spring Petclinic, converting it to use Thymeleaf in the view layer, and re-organizing the code to be a bit more "modern". I enjoyed working with Thymeleaf 3, and found it a pleasant experience, but had to spend a lot of time scanning documentation and samples. Then I had another little project that needed some templates, and I…

SpringOne Platform 2016 Replay: DDD & REST - Domain Driven APIs for the web

News | Pieter Humphrey | November 15, 2016 | ...

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/ddd-rest-domain-driven-apis-for-the-web

While Domain Driven Design is supposed to take care of complexity in the very core of software, REST is usually treated a plain remoting technology. In this talk we're going to explore some commonalities of the two when it comes to the design of both the domain and resources. We're going to discover how a good domain design is essential to build a great REST API in the first place and which means REST provides to make your APIs more domain driven. From all of the…

SpringOne Platform 2016 Replay: From Imperative To Reactive Web Apps

News | Pieter Humphrey | November 15, 2016 | ...

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Speaker: Rossen Stoyanchev Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/imperative-to-reactive-web-applications

The reactive programming model involves a fundamental shift from imperative to non-blocking logic and understanding what that means on the most basic level is an essential and required first step. In this talk we'll start by introducing reactive programming and discuss how it impacts application design. Then we'll take a look at the building blocks from a Java developer's perspective. Finally we'll complete the picture by checking out the…
