Simple tutorial to work with WSO2 GIT source code for developers

Some important Git commands for branching with remotes and upstream projects

First create a fork from an existing repository on wso2 repo


Then create a cloned repository in your local machine from that forked repo. Replace the URL with your own repo URL.

git clone https://github.com/chanakaudaya/carbon-mediation.git

Now add upstream repositories for your local clones repository.This should be the upstream project which you have forked from.

git remote add upstream https://github.com/wso2/carbon-mediation.git

You can remove an upstream if you needed.
git remote rm upstream


Now you can see all the available branches in your git metadata repository. Here you need to keep in mind that only metadata available for all the branches except the master (which is the local branch created by default)

git branch -a

* master
 remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
 remotes/origin/master
 remotes/origin/release-2.1.3-wso2v1
 remotes/origin/release-2.1.3-wso2v2
 remotes/upstream/master
 remotes/upstream/release-2.1.3-wso2v1
 remotes/upstream/release-2.1.3-wso2v2

If you cannot see the upstream branches list from the above command, just fetch them with the following command.

git fetch upstream

Now you should see the branched list as above.

This will list down all the available branches. Then decide on which branch you are going to work on. Let’s say you are going to work on release-2.1.3-wso2v2 branch. Now you should create a tracking branch in your local repository for that branch.

git checkout --track origin/release-2.1.3-wso2v2

Here we are creating a tracking local branch to track the origin (your forked repository, not the upstream). Now if you look at the branch list, you can see the newly created branch.

git branch -a

 master
* release-2.1.3-wso2v2
 remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
 remotes/origin/master
 remotes/origin/release-2.1.3-wso2v1
 remotes/origin/release-2.1.3-wso2v2
 remotes/upstream/master
 remotes/upstream/release-2.1.3-wso2v1
 remotes/upstream/release-2.1.3-wso2v2

Now you need to see what is the link between your remote branches and local branches. You can do that with the following command.

git remote show origin

This will give you the information about the connection between your local and remote branches.

* remote origin
 Fetch URL: https://github.com/chanakaudaya/wso2-synapse.git
 Push  URL: https://github.com/chanakaudaya/wso2-synapse.git
 HEAD branch: master
 Remote branches:
    master               tracked
    release-2.1.3-wso2v1 tracked
    release-2.1.3-wso2v2 tracked
 Local branches configured for 'git pull':
    master               merges with remote master
    release-2.1.3-wso2v2 merges with remote release-2.1.3-wso2v2
 Local refs configured for 'git push':
    master               pushes to master               (up to date)
    release-2.1.3-wso2v2 pushes to release-2.1.3-wso2v2 (up to date)

How to setup an WSO2 API manager distributed setup with a clustered gateway with WSO2 ELB

In this blog post I am going to describe about how to configure a WSO2 API Manager in a distributed setup with a clustered gateway with WSO2 ELB and the WSO2 G-REG for a distributed deployment in your production environment. Before continuing with this post, you need to download the above mentioned products from the WSO2 website. WSO2 APIM - http://wso2.com/products/api-manager/ WSO2 ELB - http://wso2.com/products/elastic-load-balancer/ Understanding the API Manager architecture API Manager uses the following four main components: Publisher Creates and publishes APIs Store Provides a user interface to search, select, and subscribe to APIs Key Manager Used for authentication, security, and key-related operations Gateway Responsible for securing, protecting, managing, and scaling API calls Here is the deployment diagram that we are going to configure. In this setup, you have 5 APIM nodes with 2 gateway...

WSO2 ESB tuning performance with threads

I have written several blog posts explaining the internal behavior of the ESB and the threads created inside ESB. With this post, I am talking about the effect of threads in the WSO2 ESB and how to tune up threads for optimal performance. You can refer [1] and [2] to understand the threads created within the ESB. [1] http://soatutorials.blogspot.com/2015/05/understanding-threads-created-in-wso2.html [2] http://wso2.com/library/articles/2012/03/importance-performance-wso2-esb-handles-nonobvious/ Within this blog post, I am discussing about the "worker threads" which are used for processing the data within the WSO2 ESB. There are 2 types of worker threads created when you start sending the requests to the server 1) Server Worker/Client Worker Threads 2) Mediator Worker (Synapse-Worker) Threads Server Worker/Client Worker Threads These set of threads will be used to process all the requests/responses coming to the ESB server. ServerWorker Threads will be used to pr...

Performance Tuning WSO2 ESB with a practical example

WSO2 ESB is arguably the highest performing open source ESB available in the industry. With the default settings, it will provide a really good performance OOTB. You can find the official performance tuning guide in the below link. https://docs.wso2.com/display/ESB481/Performance+Tuning Above document includes lot of parameters and how to change them for best performance. Even though it provides some recommended values for the performance tuning, that is not straightforward. The values you put in the configuration files will highly reliant on your use case. Idea of this blog post is to provide a practical example of tuning these parameters with a sample use case. For the performance testing, I am using a simple proxy service which iterate through set of xml elements and send request to a sample server and aggregate the responses back to the client. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <proxy xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse"     ...
