## Description

Read events from a Jms Broker. Supports both Jms Queues and Topics.
For more information about Jms, see . For more information about the Ruby Gem used, see .
JMS configurations can be done either entirely in the Logstash configuration file, or in a mixture of the Logstash configuration file, and a specified yaml file. Simple configurations that do not need to make calls to implementation specific methods on the connection factory can be specified entirely in the Logstash configuration, whereas more complex configurations, should also use the combination of yaml file and Logstash configuration.

## Sample Configuration using Logstash Configuration Only

Configurations can be configured either entirely in Logstash configuration, or via a combination of Logstash configuration and yaml file, which can be useful for sharing similar configurations across multiple inputs and outputs. The JMS plugin can also be configured using JNDI if desired.

## Sample Configuration using Logstash Configuration and Yaml File


### Non-JNDI Connection

This section contains sample configurations for connecting to a JMS provider that is not using JNDI using a combination of the Logstash configuration and the yaml file

### Logstash Configuration for Non-JNDI Connection (for configs including yaml)

```
 input {
    jms {
       
        include_header => false
        include_properties => false
        include_body => true
        use_jms_timestamp => false
        destination => "myqueue"
        pub_sub => false
       
        username => xxxx
        password => xxxx
        # Location of yaml file, and which section to use for configuration
        yaml_file => "~/jms.yml"  
        yaml_section => "mybroker" 
    }
 }
```


### Yaml File for Non-JNDI Connection

```
mybroker: 
  :broker_url: 'ssl://localhost:61617' 
  :factory: org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory 
  :exclusive_consumer: true 
  :require_jars: 
    - /usr/share/jms/activemq-all-5.15.9.jar
    - /usr/share/jms/log4j-1.2.17.jar
```


### JNDI Connection

This section contains sample configurations for connecting to a JMS provider that is using JNDI using a combination of the Logstash configuration and the yaml file

### Logstash Configuration for JNDI Connection (for configs including yaml)

```
 input {
    jms {
       
        include_header => false
        include_properties => false
        include_body => true
        use_jms_timestamp => false
        destination => "myqueue"
        pub_sub => false
        # Location of yaml file, and which section to use for configuration
        yaml_file => "~/jms.yml"  
        yaml_section => "mybroker" 
    }
 }
```


### Yaml File for JNDI Connection

```
solace: 
  :jndi_name: /jms/cf/default 
  :jndi_context: 
    java.naming.factory.initial: com.solacesystems.jndi.SolJNDIInitialContextFactory
    java.naming.security.principal: solace-cloud-client@user
    java.naming.provider.url: tcp://address.messaging.solace.cloud:20608
    java.naming.security.credentials: verysecret
  :require_jars: 
    - /usr/share/jms/commons-lang-2.6.jar
    - /usr/share/jms/sol-jms-10.5.0.jar
    - /usr/share/jms/geronimo-jms_1.1_spec-1.1.1.jar
    - /usr/share/jms/commons-lang-2.6.jar
```


## Jar files

In order to communicate with a JMS broker, the plugin must load the jar files necessary for each client type. This can be set in the yaml file, or in the main configuration if a yaml file is not necessary. The `require_jars` setting should include the full path for each jar file required for the client. Eg

### Logstash configuration

```
 input {
    jms {
              :
              [snip]
         require_jars => ['/usr/share/jms/commons-lang-2.6.jar',
                          '/usr/share/jms/sol-jms-10.5.0.jar',
                          '/usr/share/jms/geronimo-jms_1.1_spec-1.1.1.jar',
                          '/usr/share/jms/commons-lang-2.6.jar']
    }
 }
```


## Troubleshooting

This section includes some common issues that a user may have when integrating this plugin with their JMS provider.

### Missing Jar files

The most common issue is missing jar files, which may be jar files provided by the JMS vendor, or jar files that the JMS vendor requires to run. This issue can manifest in different ways, depending on where the missing jar file is discovered.
Example log output:
```
  Failed to load JMS Connection, likely because a JMS Provider is not on the Logstash classpath or correctly
  specified by the plugin's `require_jars` directive
  {:exception=>"cannot load Java class javax.jms.DeliveryMode"
```

```
  JMS Consumer Died {:exception=>"Java::JavaxNaming::NoInitialContextException",
                     :exception_message=>"Cannot instantiate class:"
```

```
  warning: thread "[main]<jms" terminated with exception (report_on_exception is true):
  java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/lang/exception/NestableException
```

```
  JMS Consumer Died {:exception=>"Java::JavaxJms::JMSException", :exception_message=>"io/netty/channel/epoll/Epoll",
  :root_cause=>{:exception=>"Java::JavaLang::NoClassDefFoundError", :exception_message=>"io/netty/channel/epoll/Epoll"}
```

If any of these issues occur, check the list of `require_jars` in either the Logstash configuration or yaml configuration files.

### Setting System Properties

Many JMS providers allow or expect System properties to be set to configure certain properties when using JMS, for example, the Apache qpid JMS client allows the connection factory lookup to be stored there, and the Solace JMS client allows many properties, such as number of connection retries to be set as System properties. Any system properties that are set should be set in the Logstash `jvm.options` file.

### Multiple JMS inputs/outputs in the same Logstash process

The use of multiple JMS consumers and producers in the same Logstash process is unsupported if:
- System properties need to be different for any of the consumers/producers
- Different keystores or truststores are required for any of the consumers/producers


### Message Selectors unexpectedly filtering out all messages

Incorrect message selector syntax can have two effects - either the syntax is incorrect and the selector parser from the JMS provider will throw an exception causing the plugin to fail OR the syntax will be accepted, but the messages will be silently dropped - this can happen with incorrect quoting of string properties in the selector definition. All selector definitions must be double quoted in the Logstash configuration file, and string property values must be single quoted, and numeric property values not quoted at all.

### Failed to create Event with MissingConverterException

Messages from certain JMS providers may contain headers or properties that Logstash cannot interpret, which can lead to error messages such as:
```
[2019-11-25T08:04:28,769][ERROR][logstash.inputs.jms      ] Failed to create event {:message=>Java::ComSolacesystemsJmsMessage::SolTextMessage: ...
Attributes: {:jms_correlation_id=>"xxxx", :jms_delivery_mode_sym=>:non_persistent, :jms_destination=>"destination", :jms_expiration=>0, :jms_message_id=>"xxxxxx", :jms_priority=>0, :jms_redelivered=>false, :jms_reply_to=>#<Java::ComSolacesystemsJmsImpl::SolTopicImpl:0xdeadbeef>, :jms_timestamp=>1574669008862, :jms_type=>nil}
Properties: nil, :exception=>org.logstash.MissingConverterException: Missing Converter handling for full class name=com.solacesystems.jms.impl.SolTopicImpl, simple name=SolTopicImpl, :backtrace=>["org.logstash.Valuefier.fallbackConvert(Valuefier.java:98)..."]}
:exception=>org.logstash.MissingConverterException: Missing Converter handling for full class name=com.solacesystems.jms.impl.SolTopicImpl
```

To get around this, use the `skip_headers` or `skip_properties` configuration setting to avoid attempting to process the offending header or property in the message.
In the example shown above, this attribute is causing the `MissingConverterException`:
`jms_reply_to=>#<Java::ComSolacesystemsJmsImpl::SolTopicImpl:0xdeadbeef>`
To avoid this error, the configuration should include the following line:
```
skip_headers => ["jms_reply_to"]
```

Also see [Common options](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-common-options) for a list of options supported by all input plugins.

### `broker_url`

- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Url to use when connecting to the JMS provider. This is only relevant for non-JNDI configurations.

### `destination`

- This is a required setting.
- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Name of the destination queue or topic to use.

### `durable_subscriber`

- Value type is [boolean](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#boolean)
- This is `false` by default
- Requires `pub_sub` to be true

Setting this value to `true` will make subscriptions to topics "durable", which allowing messages that arrived on the specified topic while Logstash is not running to still be read. Without setting this value, any messages sent to a topic while Logstash is not actively listening will be lost. A durable subscriber specifies a unique identity consisting of the topic (`destination`), the client id (`durable_subscriber_client_id`) and subscriber name (`durable_subscriber_subscriber_name`). See your JMS Provider documentation for any further requirements/limitations around these settings.
- Note that a durable subscription can only have one active subscriber at a time.
- Note that this setting is only permitted when `pub_sub` is set to true, and will generate a configuration error otherwise


### `durable_subscriber_client_id`

- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- If `durable_subscriber` is set, the default value for this setting is *Logstash*, otherwise this setting has no effect

This represents the value of the client ID for a durable subscribtion, and is only used if `durable_subscriber` is set to `true`.

### `durable_subscriber_name`

- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- If `durable_subscriber` is set, the default value for this setting will be the same value as the `destination` setting, otherwise this setting has no effect.

This represents the value of the subscriber name for a durable subscribtion, and is only used if `durable_subscriber` is set to `true`. Please consult your JMS Provider documentation for constraints and requirements for this setting.

### `factory`

- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Full name (including package name) of Java connection factory used to create a connection with your JMS provider.

### `factory_settings`

- Value type is [hash](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#hash)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Hash of implementation specific configuration values to set on the connection factory of the JMS provider. Each JMS Provider will have its own set of parameters that can be used here. These parameters are mapped to `set` methods on the provided connection factory, and can be supplied in either *snake* or *camel* case. For example, a hash including `exclusive_consumer => true` would call `setExclusiveConsumer(true)` on the supplied connection factory. See your JMS provider documentation for implementation specific details.

### `include_body`

- Value type is [boolean](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#boolean)
- Default value is `true`

Include JMS Message Body in the event. Supports TextMessage, MapMessage and ByteMessage.
If the JMS Message is a TextMessage or ByteMessage, then the value will be in the "message" field of the event. If the JMS Message is a MapMessage, then all the key/value pairs will be added in the Hashmap of the event.
StreamMessage and ObjectMessage are not supported.

### `include_header`

- Value type is [boolean](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#boolean)
- Default value is `true`

A JMS message has three parts:
- Message Headers (required)
- Message Properties (optional)

## Common options

These configuration options are supported by all input plugins:

| Setting                                                     | Input type                                                      | Required |
|-------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|----------|
| [`add_field`](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-add_field)         | [hash](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#hash)       | No       |
| [`codec`](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-codec)                 | [codec](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#codec)     | No       |
| [`enable_metric`](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-enable_metric) | [boolean](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#boolean) | No       |
| [`id`](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-id)                       | [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)   | No       |
| [`tags`](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-tags)                   | [array](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#array)     | No       |
| [`type`](#v3.1.2-plugins-inputs-jms-type)                   | [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)   | No       |


### `add_field`

- Value type is [hash](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#hash)
- Default value is `{}`

Add a field to an event

### `codec`

- Value type is [codec](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#codec)
- Default value is `"plain"`

The codec used for input data. Input codecs are a convenient method for decoding your data before it enters the input, without needing a separate filter in your Logstash pipeline.

### `enable_metric`

- Value type is [boolean](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#boolean)
- Default value is `true`

Disable or enable metric logging for this specific plugin instance by default we record all the metrics we can, but you can disable metrics collection for a specific plugin.

### `id`

- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Add a unique `ID` to the plugin configuration. If no ID is specified, Logstash will generate one. It is strongly recommended to set this ID in your configuration. This is particularly useful when you have two or more plugins of the same type, for example, if you have 2 jms inputs. Adding a named ID in this case will help in monitoring Logstash when using the monitoring APIs.
```
input {
  jms {
    id => "my_plugin_id"
  }
}
```


### `tags`

- Value type is [array](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#array)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Add any number of arbitrary tags to your event.
This can help with processing later.

### `type`

- Value type is [string](/docs/reference/logstash/plugins/value-types#string)
- There is no default value for this setting.

Add a `type` field to all events handled by this input.
Types are used mainly for filter activation.
The type is stored as part of the event itself, so you can also use the type to search for it in Kibana.
If you try to set a type on an event that already has one (for example when you send an event from a shipper to an indexer) then a new input will not override the existing type. A type set at the shipper stays with that event for its life even when sent to another Logstash server.
