Configuring Remote Apps for Auto-discovery

After downloading, configuring, and running the TIBCO Cloud Integration - Hybrid Agent, you must configure your remote TIBCO BusinessWorks and Flogo® apps so the Hybrid Agent can discover them.

Configuring TIBCO BusinessWorks Apps

To use this feature, you must use TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition 2.8.0 or later.

For more information, see Creating the TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition Base Docker Image for Linux Containers in the TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition documentation.

  1. Download the run time (such as bwce-runtime-2.8.0.zip) and copy to it to <BWCE_HOME>/bwce/2.8/docker/resources/bwce-runtime.
  2. Run the following command from <BWCE_HOME>/bwce/2.8/docker:
     docker build -t bwce280hybrid .
    
  3. Edit the dockerfile for the app. (See the documentation linked above for more details.)
  4. Create an app image using the bwce280hybrid base image:
     docker build -t bwcetimerapp .
    
  5. Use the sampleBWApplicationAutoRegd.yaml file generated by the configure manage command as a template. Replace the <appName> and the <appImage> in the template before applying the app deployment to your Kubernetes cluster.

See the configure manage section of the Hybrid Agent Command Reference page for a list of files generated during the Hybrid Agent configuration process.

Configuring Flogo® Apps

To use this feature, you must use TIBCO Flogo® Enterprise 2.19.0 or later.

Use the sampleFlogoApplicationAutoRegd.yaml file generated by the configure manage command as a template. Replace the <appName> and the <appImage> in the template before applying the app deployment to your Kubernetes cluster.

See the configure manage section of the Hybrid Agent Command Reference page for a list of files generated during the Hybrid Agent configuration process.

For information on Flogo® Remote app environment variables, see Environment Variables.

Note: Lambda apps deployed on AWS do not work with the hybrid agent running locally.
