A Dropwizard library that enables connectivity to Apache TinkerPop enabled gremlin servers.

See this blog post for a simple getting started guide.

• Configuration
• Health Check
• Managed Cluster

The configuration class includes all of the parameters required to configure a remote connection to a TinkerPop server. The default values correspond to all of the defaults specified in the TinkerPop cluster builder.

A health check is setup using the dropwizard health check registry. It executes the validationQuery specified in the configuration. It will succeed if the query responds within the validationQueryTimeout specified.

The Cluster built from the TinkerPopFactory is included in dropwizard's managed lifecycle. This will allow dropwizard to try and gracefully shut down the TinkerPop client connections on shutdown.

Include the dropwizard-tinkerpop library as a dependency

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.experoinc</groupId>
  <artifactId>dropwizard-tinkerpop</artifactId>
  <version>${dropwizard-tinkerpop.version}</version>
</dependency>

Include a TinkerPopFactory instance in your application config

public class AppConfig extends Configuration {

    @Valid
    @NotNull
    private TinkerPopFactory tinkerPopFactory = new TinkerPopFactory();

    @JsonProperty("tinkerPop")
    public TinkerPopFactory getTinkerPopFactory() {
        return tinkerPopFactory;
    }

    @JsonProperty("tinkerPop")
    public void setTinkerPopFactory(TinkerPopFactory tinkerPopFactory) {
        this.tinkerPopFactory = tinkerPopFactory;
    }
}

Build the TinkerPop cluster in your applications run(AppConfig ac, Environment environment) method.

public class App extends Application<AppConfig> {
    
    @Override
    public void run(AppConfig configuration, Environment environment) throws Exception {
        Cluster cluster = configuration.getTinkerPopFactory().build(environment);
    }
}

Docker Compose is required for testing. Running docker-compose up -d will start two Gremlin server containers, one for SSL and one for non-SSL testing. You can run docker-compose down to stop and remove the containers. Tests are run by running mvn clean install.
