Guide to Setting Up and Using the JVM Monitoring Tool with Spring Boot

The project offers a convenient way to monitor multiple remote JVMs, especially for Spring Boot applications, by simply adding a jar dependency or initializing a Spring Boot program.

After cloning the monitor-server repository, configure the server list in resources/application.properties using entries such as monitor.serve[0].name=serve-1 and monitor.serve[0].address=http://127.0.0.1:8081/monitor .

Build and install the starter jar locally with Maven:

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.github.xk4848123 -DartifactId=monitor-spring-boot-starter -Dversion=2.3.1 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads\monitor-spring-boot-starter.jar

In any Spring Boot project, add the starter dependency, then configure the monitoring properties, for example:

# Define access path monitor.path=monitor # Enable client monitor.enable=true

Run the Spring Boot application and access the monitor server (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:8888 ) to view JVM metrics.
