Modules

This section explains how to upload and manage modules through the UI.

Adding a Module

To add a module, first navigate to the Modules page. The page shows a table of all modules in the system, and below it the Add Module Package form to upload a new module package.

Follow the steps to add a new module:

1. Click Select File and locate the module package file to upload.

2. Optionally check the Use Persistence Provider checkbox if you would like to use a persistence provider to persist data to an external database or store.

3. Click Continue.

4. If you checked Use Persistence Provider, select a persistence provider and backing store policy from the dropdown lists, then click Continue.

5. Review the summary to make sure the details are correct, then click Add Module to finish adding the module.

6. After the module is finished uploading, click Done to reset the form if you would like to upload another module.

Managing Modules

You can manage one or more modules using the Manage Modules table on the Modules page. Select modules by checking the boxes in the left column. Then choose one of the options (Deploy, Restart, or Delete) to apply the operation to the selected modules. To delete all modules, click the Delete All button.

Viewing Module Details

To view more details about a module, click on its name in the Manage Modules table.

This page shows:

• The module’s runtime and type

• The module’s current status (e.g. Running, Not Deployed)

• Real-time statistics including the number of messages the module is receiving per second and the average message size

• A list of status messages for the module

You can also deploy, restart, or delete the module from this screen by using the buttons under Module Options.
