I. Configuring the REST Connector

1. Add dependency to net.anotheria.moskito-core.2.2.3 into pom.xml of the client app.

2. Create the rest-connector.json file. Add the following lines into it:

   rest-connector.json

   {
       host: "localhost",
       port: 8080,
       resourcePath: "/moskito-central/central/addSnapshot",
   }
   

   In these lines, host and port correspond to host and port of the HTTP server where REST Endpont is running.
    

3. Open moskito.json and add the following lines into plug-ins array:

   moskito.json

   {
       "name": "RESTRemoteCentralConnector",
       "configurationName": "rest-connector",
       "className": "net.anotheria.moskito.central.connectors.rest.RESTConnector",
   },
   

   In these lines, the "rest-connector" entry should be substituted by the name of REST Connector JSON file, created in Step 2.

II. Starting the REST Endpoint

1. Initiate moskito-central with war:war. 
   For example:

   mvn clean install war:war
   

2. Start the Tomcat server and place <moskito-central>/target/moskito-central-[version].war into <tomcat-root>/webapps folder.

III. Configuring the DiMe Connector.

1. Add dependency to net.anotheria.moskito-core.2.2.3 into pom.xml of the client app.

2. Create he dime-connector.json file. Add the following lines into it:

   dime-connector.json

   {
       connectorHost: "localhost",
       connectorPort: 9249,
   }
   

   In these lines, host and port correspond to host and port of DistributeMe RMI service.
   
   

3. Open moskito.json file and add the following lines into plug-ins array:

   moskito.json

   {
       "name": "DiMeCentralConnector",
       "configurationName": "dime-connector",
       "className": "net.anotheria.moskito.central.connectors.dime.DiMeCentralConnector",
   },
   

   In these lines, the "dime-connector" entry should be substituted by the name of DiMe Connector JSON file, configured in Step 2. 

IV. Starting the RMI Endpoint service.

Initiate moskito-central with "jar-with-service" profile, like the following:

mvn clean install -Pjar-with-service

It will prepare the JAR file that can be started with java -jar utility.
We suppose that you will start it with local RMI registry and will use the following environment variables:

-DlocalRmiRegistryPort=9249 -DskipCentralRegistry=true.

Below is the example of starting the service:

java -DlocalRmiRegistryPort=9249 -DskipCentralRegistry=true -jar moskito-central-[version].jar
