In my previous
blog post I wrote that I was going to implement
Hyperic Sigar in
JODConverter. Well the alpha is done, and you can go try it out
here.
When rewriting the code to use the ProcessFinder in Sigar, I found it very cumbersome to work with
PTQL, which is the Process Table Query Language for Sigar.
Sigar describes PTQL as:
Hyperic SIGAR provides a mechanism to identify processes called Process Table Query Language. All operating systems assign a unique id (PID) to each running process. However, the PID is a random number that may also change at any point in time when a process is restarted. PTQL uses process attributes that will persist over time to identify a process.
PTQL is string based, and the processFinder takes the ptql as string as parameter.
processFinder.find("State.Name.eq=java"); //Returns all the process id's named java
I have jboss already running and the ps command locally gives me the pid:
28258
> ps -ef | grep jboss

When running the sigar shell
(java -jar sigar.jar) and writing
sigar> pargs 28258
It gives the output (the numbers are arguments)

Now imagine you want to create a more advanced query which takes the one or more of the 19 arguments the java process takes.
The query would look something like this:
processFinder.find("State.Name.ct=java,Args.5.eq=-Xms512m,Args.6.eq=-Xmx768m,Args.7.re=.*MaxPermSize=512m,Args.17.ct=configuration=default,Args.19.eq=localhost");
or you are building the query based on variables which you must retrieve somewhere else
public void testArgs() throws Exception {
String state_name= "State.Name.ct=java";
String arg5 = ",Args.5.eq=-Xms512m";
String arg6 = ",Args.6.eq=-Xmx768m";
String arg7 = ",Args.7.re=.*MaxPermSize=512m";
String arg17 = ",Args.17.ct=configuration=default";
String arg19 = ",Args.19.eq=localhost";
ProcessFinder processFinder = new ProcessFinder(new Sigar());
processFinder.find(state_name + arg5 + arg6+ arg7 + arg17 + arg19);
}
It doesn't take a genius to see that it is easy to make mistakes. Hence the more type-safe way of creating PTQL queries.
SimplePTQL
I took the liberty to create a helper/wrapper class for ProcessFinder which tries to eliminate some of the errors you can do.
For instance, instead of the code above, you would write the following:
SimplePTQL ptql = new SimplePTQL.Builder(SimplePTQL.STATE_NAME(), SimplePTQL.CT(), "java")
.addArgs(5, SimplePTQL.EQ(), "-Xms512m", Strategy.NOT_ESCAPE)
.addArgs(6, SimplePTQL.EQ(), "-Xmx768m", Strategy.NOT_ESCAPE)
.addArgs(7, SimplePTQL.RE(), ".*MaxPermSize=512m", Strategy.ESCAPE)
.addArgs(17, SimplePTQL.CT(), "configuration=default", Strategy.NOT_ESCAPE)
.addArgs(19, SimplePTQL.EQ(), "localhost", Strategy.NOT_ESCAPE)
.createQuery();
ProcessFinder processFinder = new ProcessFinder(new Sigar());
processFinder.find(ptql.getQuery());
The constructor of the Builder takes the first part of the query as parameters and you can optionally add arguments. You can escape the input which regular expressions should do. It will basically replace all commas (,) with period (.), this because the find method doesn't like commas in the searchValue inside a regular expression.
/**
* This method will escape Comma (,) to Period (.)
* Because the PTQL cannot escape those correctly, so we will use '.' in regular expression.
* We also have to remove \Q and \E because they are not correctly interpreted as literal characters
*
* @param s - The string you want to espace
*
* NB: Note that you should only espace the value of the PTQL, not the query it self
* ie: State.Name.ct=pipe,name=office1 should be converted to State.Name.ct=pipe.name.office1
* @return - The escaped string
*/
public static String escapePTQLForRegex(String s) {
return s.replaceAll(",", ".").replaceAll("\\\\Q|\\\\E", "");
}
