Introducing tibcli-node for TIBCO Cloud Integration

·1 min·

Pretty much all the large cloud platforms provide not only a great visual interface to get things done, they also have a great command line interface. As much as I like a great UI when browsing the web, I tend to favor the command line when I’m focused on building things.

The TIBCO Cloud - Command Line Interface, or tibcli for short, has all the same features and functions that allow you to get work done through the TIBCO Cloud Integration web UI. You can update your configuration variables (tibcli app configure myApp1 prop1="newval" prop1="newval2"), push apps (tibcli app push) and stream log files (tibcli monitor applog --stream myApp1) to name a few actions.

The tibcli doesn’t yet support a lot of functionality for Node.js though, so I decided to write my own. tibcli-node has many of the same features as the VSCode plug-in but accessible through the command line.

Check out the repo and let me know your thoughts!

How To Continuously Test Flogo Activities With Jenkins

·4 mins
In 2016 TIBCO announced Project Flogo as an ultra lightweight integration engine — up to 20 to 50 times lighter than Node.js and Java Dropwizard. It’s open source and easily extensible, which means you want to make sure the activities you build keep working after each check-in. The question is straightforward: how do you test your activities every time code is pushed to Git?

Monitoring Node.js Apps with Prometheus

In the age of monolithic apps and app servers, monitoring was relatively straightforward. With microservices, you’re dealing with more servers and more services, and monitoring gets complex fast. You have options — Nagios, Zabbix, or Prometheus. My preference goes to the Greek deity that stole fire from Mount Olympus and brought it to us.
