GTLAB and OGCE
 OGCE contains multiple sub-projects






Portlet-based Grid portal (with GridSphere and Tomcat).
Workflow suite (services and add-ins to the portal)
Information Web services
Gadget container
Cyberaide JavaScript libraries
GTLAB
 These are packaged with Maven and include everything you need
except Java and (for some services) MySQL.
 We try to make things installable with minimal fuss.




Consistent directory structures across projects
Edit one config file (pom.xml)
Run one command (mvn clean install)
You may need to futz a little with MySQL

Getting GTLAB
 See http://www.collab-ogce.org/ogce/index.php/GTLAB
 You can use your favorite SVN client to check out.
 svn co https://ogce.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ogce/GTLAB
(latest)
 svn co
https://ogce.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ogce/tags/GTLABtg09 (tagged)
 “Latest” will give you easy access to any updates
 “svn update”
 Best option if you want to actively develop and get fixes right
away.
No SVN? Get the TAR
 SourceForge’s SVN/CVS
viewer now provides a
“Download GNU Tar”
option.
 http://ogce.svn.sourc
eforge.net/viewvc/ogc
e/GTLAB/ for latest.
 http://ogce.svn.sourc
eforge.net/viewvc/ogc

for tag
Levels of Abstraction in GTLAB code
You can use prepackaged gadgets/portlets.
You can develop new applications using
existing tag libraries.
You can make new tags for your services
You can hack or steal the code
 Note JSF is compatible with JSP, so you can mix and
match.
 And you can embed JavaScript
 YUI, Scriptaculous user interface goodies.
 Google and Facebook APIs.

using the JSF
portlet bridge.

Making GTLAB Google Gadgets
 A Gadget is a standalone application that is integrated
into your personal iGoogle display.
 They can run on your Web server.
 You can use SSL/HTTPS
 Google Gadgets have two versions
 http: these use Google’s JavaScript APIs
 url: these wrap external applications with Iframes.
 We currently support “url” gadgets.
Example Gadget Config File
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Module>
<ModulePrefs title="MyProxy Gadget Example"
scrolling="true"
height="500"/>
<Content type="url"
href="http://…/:8080/GTLAB/examples/MyProxyExample.jsf">
</Content>
</Module>
Save this as MyProxy.xml and place
in a Web accessible place.
Gadget containers
aggregate content
from multiple
providers. Content
is aggregated on the
client by the user.
Nearly any web
application can be a
simple gadget (as
Iframes)

Making GTLAB Gadgets into Portlets
 Do all development in jsf_standalone directory
 This is where your template tags will be placed
 When you are ready to convert:
 Download and build the OGCE portal




cd GTLAB/transition
mvn clean process-resources
cd GTLAB/portlets
mvn clean install
 You will need to make small edits to portlet.xml,
group.xml, and layout.xml in
GTLAB/portlet/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/
 That’s it.
Various GTLAB
applications deployed
as portlets:
Remote directory
browsing, proxy
management, and
LoadLeveler queues.

Build GTLAB
 Unpack or checkout code
 Cd GTLAB
 All commands are
executed from here.
 Edit properties at the
top of pom.xml.
 Change IP
 Change project.home if
you unpack someplace
besides $HOME.
 Run “mvn clean install”
<properties>
<portal.server.ip>
156.56.104.143
</portal.server.ip>
<host.base.url>
http://${portal.server.ip}:8080/
</host.base.url>
<project.home>
${env.HOME}/GTLAB
</project.home>
<tomcat.version>
apache-tomcat-5.5.27
</tomcat.version>
<catalina.home>
${project.home}/portal_deploy/${tomcat.version}/
</catalina.home>
<dot.globus.home>
${env.HOME}/.globus/
</dot.globus.home>
</properties>
Run Examples
 From GTLAB, start tomcat with ./startup.sh.
 From GTLAB, stop Tomcat with ./shutdown.sh
 Point browser to http://localhost:8080/GTLAB
 Start with MyProxy Example
Next Steps
 Play with examples.
 These are really bare bones. Make something
interesting.
 Make a Google gadget.
 Mix and match tags in a pipeline to make a new
application.
 Use the dependency tag.
 Note you can mix and match JSF and JSP if you are
not familiar with JSF.
 Try making a new tag.
 Explained next.
Making New Tags and
Examples
Making a New JSF Page from Tags
 I recommend starting from the examples.
 jsf_standalone/src/main/webapp/examples
 “Build” the examples with
 mvn –o clean install –f jsf_standalone/pom.xml
 The “-o” option is used to build offline. Will also avoid
unnecessary Maven repository updates.
 The “-f” specifies only build this specific module.
 I recommend not futzing with the deployed versions under
portal_deploy.
 A computer is a state machine. State must be reproducible.
Making a New Tag
 Run the following command from GTLAB:
 mvn clean process-resources -Dtag.name=test Dprojectname=Test -f templateTag/pom.xml
 Add -Ddest.dir=/tmp for a dry run.
 Replace “test” with the name of your tag.
 Replace “Test” with the name for your Bean.
 This will make 4 files
 TestBean.java, TestTag.java, TestBeanFactory.java,
UITest.java
 Edits also 3 config files
 gtlab-factory.xml, managed-beans.xml, components.xml
 This will compile but to implement something useful, you will
need to edit the highlighted files.
Implementing a Tag
 The place to start is TestBean.java (or whatever
you used for –Dprojectname=…).
 This includes several inherited methods that can be
implemented.
 Most important is submit(). Use the try/catch
block. This is where the action is.
 If you want to hook tags into chains, implement
getOutput() and setInput().
 Also take a look at the other beans.
Suggested Tags: A Wish List
 What can you do in your bean? Anything server-side Java
can do.
 Some suggestions:
 Implement a tag client to a remote Web service. Amazon has
some interesting ones….
 Implement an RSS/Atom feed client to Twitter, your blog,
Facebook, etc.
 Combine the feeds as a mash-up.
 Connect to a database with JDBC.
 Implement a JMS publisher or subscriber.
 Use Google Java APIs to interact with Blogger, Calendar, and
YouTube.
 Try interacting with Facebook.
INCA Tags: An Extended
Example
Example: Make an INCA Dashboard
 INCA is used as the testing framework for the TeraGrid.
 You can get the latest INCA test results from the URL
 http://inca.teragrid.org/inca/XML/kit-statusv1/portal_summary
 See Sangmi’s notes at
http://sangpall.blogspot.com/2009/03/being-nice-clientof-inca-service.html
 You’ll get back some fine looking XML.
 Let’s make a little dashboard out of this.
First, Create a New, Empty Tag
mvn clean process-resources \
-Dtag.name=incastatus \
-Dprojectname=IncaStatus \
-f templateTag/pom.xml
Second, Implement the Bean
 Main thing is to implement IncaStatusBean’s
submit() method.
 Code is hard to put in a PPT slide
 See
http://ogce.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/og
ce/GTLAB/jsf_standalone/src/main/java/o
gce/gsf/gridbeans/IncaStatusBean.java
Third, Implement a JSF Page
 Actual tag is shown below.
 Full example is
http://ogce.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ogce/GTL
AB/jsf_standalone/src/main/webapp/examples/In
caStatusExample.jsp?view=log
 It includes some boilerplate (can be automated).
<o:incastatus id=”mytest"
resource="task1-resources”
myfaces="true"/>
Here’s the resulting page. You can make into a portlet in a
couple of steps. You can also tie to other tags in a
pipeline.
Next Steps: Make a Pipeline
 Implement the
setInput() and
getOutput() methods.
 Pipeline it with the
Resource Description
and Resource Prediction
Service tags.
 Integrate QBETS tags
 Currently unwritten
 Integrate with Job
Submission
Find Running Hosts
(INCA or RDS)
Find Best Host for
YourJob (RPS)
Find Host with
Shortest Wait Time
(QBETS)
Submit Job
More Stuff about GTLAB
 Supports linear tag dependencies.
 Removed dependence on COG graph processing (still use the
COG)
 We can support graphs of any tag you care to write.
 Only support pipelines currently, not full DAGs
 Redesigned to simplify writing new tags.
 Extensive use of factories.
 You no longer have to change core code to add a tag
 Templates for 4 Java files and 3 XML config files now can be
done in one (mvn) step
 Typically you will only need to edit one Java file.
