Maven

Repository and Credential Setup

1. Modify your project’s pom.xml file by adding the following repository definition:

       <repository>
         <id>gemfire-release-repo</id>
         <name>GemFire Release Repository</name>
         <url>https://packages.broadcom.com/artifactory/gemfire/</url>
       </repository>
   

2. To access the artifacts, you must add an entry to your .m2/settings.xml file:

     <settings>
       <servers>
         <server>
           <id>gemfire-release-repo</id>
           <username>EXAMPLE-USERNAME</username>
           <password>MY-PASSWORD</password>
         </server>
       </servers>
     </settings>
   

   Where:

   • EXAMPLE-USERNAME is your support.broadcom.com user name.
   • MY-PASSWORD is the Access Token you copied in step 3 in Prerequisites.

Add the Libraries to your Project

After setting up the repository and credentials, add the Spring Session for GemFire library to your application. To support multiple GemFire versions, the Spring Session for GemFire library requires users to specify an explicit dependency on the desired version of GemFire.

In the following examples:

• Replace the springSessionForGemFire.version with the version of the library that your project requires.
• Replace the vmwareGemFire.version with the version of GemFire that your project requires.
• Replace the <artifactId>spring-session-3.3-gemfire-10.1</artifactId> with the version of Spring Session + the version of GemFire your application requires.

Add the following to your pom.xml file:

    <properties>
        <springSessionForGemFire.version>2.0.2</springSessionForGemFire.version>
        <vmwareGemFire.version>10.1.2</vmwareGemFire.version>
    </properties>    
    
    <dependencies>
       <dependency>
           <groupId>com.vmware.gemfire</groupId>
           <artifactId>spring-session-3.3-gemfire-10.1</artifactId>
           <version>${springSessionForGemFire.version}</version>
       </dependency>
       <dependency>
           <groupId>com.vmware.gemfire</groupId>
           <artifactId>gemfire-core</artifactId>
           <version>${vmwareGemFire.version}</version>
       </dependency>
    <!--if using continuous queries-->
       <dependency>
            <groupId>com.vmware.gemfire</groupId>
            <artifactId>gemfire-cq</artifactId>
            <version>${vmwareGemFire.version}</version>
       </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Gradle

Repository and Credential Setup

1. Add the following block to the repositories section of the build.gradle file:

     repositories {
       maven {
         credentials {
           username "gemfireRepoUsername"
           password "gemfireRepoPassword"
         }
         url = uri("https://packages.broadcom.com/artifactory/gemfire/")
       }
     }
   

2. Add your credentials to the local .gradle/gradle.properties or project gradle.properties file.

   gemfireRepoUsername=MY-USERNAME
   gemfireRepoPassword=MY-PASSWORD
   

   Where:

   • EXAMPLE-USERNAME is your support.broadcom.com username.
   • MY-PASSWORD is the Access Token you copied in step 3 in Prerequisites.

Add the Libraries to your Project

After setting up the repository and credentials, add the Spring Session for GemFire library to your application. To support multiple GemFire versions, the Spring Session for GemFire library requires users to specify an explicit dependency on the desired version of GemFire.

In the following examples:

• Replace the springSessionForGemFire.version with the version of the library that your project requires.
• Replace the vmwareGemFire.version with the version of GemFire that your project requires.
• Replace the spring-session-3.3-gemfire-10.1 with the version of Spring Session + the version of GemFire your application requires.

Add the following to your build.gradle file.

        ext {
            springSessionForGemFireVersion = '2.0.2'
            vmwareGemFireVersion = '10.1.2'
        }
        
        dependencies {
            implementation "com.vmware.gemfire:spring-session-3.3-gemfire-10.1:$springSessionForGemFireVersion"
            implementation "com.vmware.gemfire:gemfire-core:$vmwareGemFireVersion"
            // if using continuous queries
            implementation "com.vmware.gemfire:gemfire-cq:$vmwareGemFireVersion"
        }
