Broker.xml custom configuration in a single deployment

[JoseFSilva01]

Hello,
My name is Jose Silva and i am a software engineer associate/ devops support and I currently have an artemis container in kubernetes with no operator. I was wondering if its possible to configure the broker xml file in a single kubernetes broker deployment of artemis with no operator?

Hi @JoseFSilva01, the main purpose of this project is to provide an operator to deploy a cluster of brokers on Kubernetes. Your use case is not supported but you could execute kubectl run using the activemq-artemis-broker-kubernetes-image to deploy a a single broker with no operator, for further details see https://github.com/artemiscloud/activemq-artemis-broker-image/issues/22#issuecomment-1404009737

Thank you i just wanted to make sure if maybe through a dockerfile maybe we could build it out some way but it gets overwritten everytime. so ill just stick to the operator method thank you!

sorry to bother you again but what do i insert into the custom configuration file exactly?

A custom configure_custom_config.sh file can be used to edit or overwrite the broker configuration files. i.e.

#!/bin/sh
set -e

INSTANCE_DIR=$1

cat <<EOT > $INSTANCE_DIR/etc/broker.xml
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<configuration xmlns="urn:activemq"
               xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
               xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
               xsi:schemaLocation="urn:activemq /schema/artemis-configuration.xsd">
   <core xmlns="urn:activemq:core" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="urn:activemq:core ">
         <!-- my costom settings -->
   </core>
</configuration>
