=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<jmx4perl> is a command line utility for an easy access of an instrumented
application server. Before you can use this tool, you need to deploy a small
agent application. In the following C<agent-url> is the URL for accessing this
agent. If you use a configuration file, you can use also a symbolic name as
stored in the configuration file. See L<JMX::Jmx4Perl::Manual> for details.
With the C<--option> (or C<-o> for short) the output of B<jmx4perl> can be
tuned. I.e. the way boolean values are printed can be tuned as well as the
data format to use for complex data structure. The known options are
=over
=item format
the value an be either C<json> or <data> for printing out complex data as JSON
or as a Perl data structure. Default is "data".
=item booleans
Specify the pair of strings to use for boolean values for the C<data> output
format. The value of this option should be given as a string separated with a
C</>. The default value is C<[true]/[false]>.
=item method
Specify the HTTP method to use for requesting the server. This can either be
C<get> or C<post>. By default "get" is used.
=item legacy-escape
Prior to version 1.0 Jolokia used a different escaping scheme for GET requests
which contains slashes. This option must be used, when the server-side agent
has a version < 1.0 and the MBean name contains slashes ("/"). Alternatively,
C<--method post> can be used, since the post method doesn't suffer from any
escaping issues.
=item indent
Number of spaces to use for indenting the output of complex data
structures. Default are 4 spaces.
=back
The options can be also put into the configuration file in a section called
C<Jmx4Perl>. For example:
<Jmx4Perl>
# 'json' or 'data'
Format json
# Boolean values: Default is [true]/[false]
Booleans 0/1
# Number of spaces to indent for complex
# data structures
Indent 4
</Jmx4Perl>
B<jmx4perl> serves also an example of how to use the L<JMX::Jmx4Perl> package.
See its documentation for more details on how to embed JMX access into your
programs.

# ===================================================================================================
# Commands:
=head1 COMMANDS
=head2 info
If you use jmx4perl without any command or with C<info> as command, you get a
description about the server, including the application server's product name
and version. This works by autodetection and only for the supported application
servers (see L<JMX::Jmx4Perl::Manual> for a list of supported products). The
only argument required is the url which points to the deployed jmx4perl agent.
With C<--verbose> C<info> prints the system properties and runtime arguments as
well.
=cut
sub command_info {
my $jmx = shift;
print $jmx->info($opts{verbose});
}
=head2 list
List meta data of all registered mbeans on the target application server. This
includes attributes and operations along whith their descriptions and
parameters (as far as they are provided by mbean's info).
You can provide an inner path as an additional argument as well. See
L<JMX::Jmx4Perl::Request> for an explanation about inner pathes (in short, it's
some sort of XPath expression which selects only a subset of all MBeans and
their values). See L<JMX::Jmx4Perl>, method "list()" for a more rigorous
documentation abouting listing of MBeans.
=cut
sub command_list {
my ($jmx,$path) = @_;
$path =~ s|:|/|;
my $req = JMX::Jmx4Perl::Request->new(LIST,$path);
my $resp = $jmx->request($req);
&_check_for_error($resp);
# Show list of beans
print $jmx->formatted_list($resp);
}
=head2 attributes
Show all attributes of all registerd mbeans and their values. For simple scalar
values they are shown on one line, for more complex data structures,
L<Data::Dumper> is used. Please note, that it is normal, that for certain
attributes an error is returned (i.e. when this attribute is not implemented on
the server side e.g. or an MXMbean). To see the full server side stacktrace for
this errors, use C<--verbose> as command line option
The attribute list can get quite large (moren than 200 MB for JBoss 5). To
restrict the output you can use the following extra optional parameters (given
in this order):
=over
=item maxDepth
Maximum nesting level of the returned JSON structure for a certain MBean
(default: 5)
=item maxCollectionSize
Maximum size of a collection after which it gets truncated (default: 150)
=item maxObjects
Maximum overall objects to fetch for a certain MBean (default: 1000)
=back
In the case of truncation, the JSON answer contains marker entries like
C<[Object limit exceeded]> or C<[Depth limit ...]>. Loops are detected, too
which results in markers of the form C<[Reference ...]>

} else {
print " = ",_dump_scalar($val),"\n";
}
}
}
}
};
if ($@) {
print "\nERROR: ",$@,"\n";
}
}
}
=head2 read / get
Read an JMX attribute's value and print it out. The required arguments are the
MBean's name and the attribute's name. Additionally, you can provide a I<path>
within the return value to pick a sub-value. See L<JMX::Jmx4Perl::Request> for a
detailed explanation of pathes.
The MBean's name and the attribute can be substituted by an
alias name, too.
For a single value, the value itself is printed (without additional newline),
for a more complex data structure, L<Data::Dumper> is used.
If the option C<--history> is given and history tracking is switched on (see
below), then the stored history is printed as well.
=cut
sub command_read {
my $resp = &_get_attribute(@_);
&_check_for_error($resp);
&_print_response($resp);
}
=head2 write / set
Write a JMX attribute's value and print out the value as it is returned from
the server. The required arguments are the MBean's name, the attribute and the
value to set. Optionally, a inner path can be provided as well in which case a
inner value is set. The MBean's name and the attribute can be substituted by an
alias name, too. See also L</"aliases"> for getting all available aliases.
The old value of the attribute (or the object pointed to by the inner path) is
printed out in the same as for L</"read">
To set a C<null> value use "[null]" as argument, to set an empty string use an
empty argument (i.e. C<""> on the command line). These values are interpreted
special, so you can't use them literally as values.
If the option C<--history> is given and history tracking is switched on (see
below), then the stored history is printed as well.
=cut
sub command_write {
my $resp = &_set_attribute(@_);
&_check_for_error($resp);
&_print_response($resp);
}
=head2 exec / call
Execute a JMX operation. The required arguments are the MBean's name, the name
of the operation to execute and the arguments required for this operations
(which can be empty if the operation doesn't take any arguments). The return
value is the return value of the operation which can be C<undef> in the case of
a void operation.
A operation alias can also be used for the MBean's name and operation.
To use a C<null> argument use "[null]", to set an empty string as argument use
an empty argument (i.e. C<"">) on the command line. These values are
interpreted special, so you can't use them literally as values.
For a single return value, the value itself is printed (without additional
newline), for a more complex data structure, L<Data::Dumper> is used.
If the option C<--history> is given and history tracking is switched on (see
below), then the stored history is printed as well.
=cut
sub command_exec {
my $resp = &_exec_operation(@_);
&_check_for_error($resp);
&_print_response($resp);
}
=head2 aliases
Print out all known aliases. See L<JMX::Jmx4Perl::Manual> for a discussion
about aliases. In short, you can use an alias as a shortcut for an MBean's
and attribute's name.
=cut
sub command_aliases {
&JMX::Jmx4Perl::Alias::help;
}
=head2 search
Search for a certain MBean. As argument you should provide a pattern like
C<*:*,j2eeType=Servlet,*>. I.e you can use the wildcard C<*> for the domain
name part, and properties as a whole (but not within a key=property tuple). See
L<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/management/ObjectName.html> for
a complete explanation of how a pattern can look like. As a result of this
operation, a list of fully qualified MBean names is printed out line by line
which match the given pattern.
=cut
sub command_search {
my $resp = &_search_attribute(@_);
return if $resp->status == 404;
&_check_for_error($resp);
my $val = $resp->value;
$val = [ $val ] unless ref($val) eq "ARRAY";
for my $l (@$val) {
print $l,"\n";
}
}
=head2 encrypt
Encrypt a given password so that it can be stored in its encrypted form in a
configuration file. Please note, that this is by no means secure and only usual
to avoid casual discovery of the password. Since jmx4perl acts as a client it
needs to be able to decrypt the password on its own when contacting the agent,
so it is a simple symmetric encryptions. The password printed out can be used
as C<Password> value for HTTP authentication and HTTP proxy authentication in
configuration files or at the command line.
=cut
sub command_encrypt {
require JMX::Jmx4Perl::Agent;
my $val = shift;
my $enc = JMX::Jmx4Perl::Agent::encrypt($val);
print $enc,"\n";
}
=head1 HISTORY TRACKING
The agent knows about a history mode, which can remember a certain
amount return values from previous requests. This mode can be switched on/off
on a per attribute (+ inner path) and operation basis. By default it is
switched off completely. You can switch in on by executing the
C<JMX4PERL_HISTORY_MAX_ATTRIBUTE> and C<JMX4PERL_HISTORY_MAX_OPERATION>
operation with L</"exec"> commands. This is best explained by some example:
jmx4perl exec JMX4PERL_HISTORY_MAX_ATTRIBUTE java.lang:type=Memory HeapMemoryUsage used 10 <agent-url>
This switches on tracking of this particular attribute. I.e. each time a
C<read> request is performed, the value is remembered along with a timestamp on
the server side. At maximum 10 entries are kept, the oldest entries get shifted
out after the eleventh read. Setting the value to C<0> will remove the history
completely. You can't set the limit beyond a certain hard limit, which can be
found as attribute under the alias
C<JMX4PERL_HISTORY_MAX_ENTRIES>. Unfortunately, one can not use an alias yet
for the arguments of C<JMX4PERL_HISTORY_MAX_ATTRIBUTE>. Also note, if you don't
has an inner path, you need to use a C<[null]> as the argument before the max
entry number.
For completely resetting the history, use
jmx4perl exec JMX4PERL_HISTORY_RESET <agent-url>
If you are curious about the size of the history for all entries, use
jmx4perl read JMX4PERL_HISTORY_SIZE <agent-url>
This will print out the history size in bytes.
