Oracle Cloud Infrastructure SDK for Java

ReleasePublished

About

oci-java-sdk provides an SDK for Java that you can use to manage your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources.

The project is open source and maintained by Oracle Corp. The home page for the project is here.

The OCI Java SDK versions 1.x.y and 2.x.y are now referred as OCI Legacy Java SDK. Any updates or bug fixes related to OCI Legacy Java SDK can be found in legacy/v2/master branch. Please refer README.md to learn more about these legacy versions.

This Github repository will refer to OCI Java SDK version 3.x.y by default where support for new features and services will be added.

Documentation

Full documentation, including prerequisites, installation, supported JDK versions and configuration instructions, is available here.

API reference can be found here.

Installation

For basic set up, see Getting Started.

Changes Introduced In OCI Java SDK 3.x.y

For full details, look at the changelog for version 3.0.0-beta1.

HTTP client library is pluggable

There is no HTTP client library configured by default. The OCI Java SDK offers the following two choices for HTTP client libraries to choose from.

Serializer/Deserializer is pluggable

GraalVM Native Image Build

OCI Java SDK Jersey HTTP client and Jersey 3 Http client are both ready for GraalVM Native Image. See bmc-examples/native-gradle-example and bmc-other-examples/native-maven-example for configuration details for building Native Image executables.

Invocation callbacks

Instead of using com.oracle.bmc.util.internal.Consumer<Invocation.Builder> to register invocation callbacks, use com.oracle.bmc.http.client.RequestInterceptor instead, to decouple the implementation from the choice of the HTTP client.

Client configuration has been simplified

com.oracle.bmc.http.ClientConfigurator has a single customizeClient(HttpClientBuilder builder) method, instead of customizeBuilder, customizeClient, and customizeRequest methods. Example:

    IdentityClient.builder()
                  .clientConfigurator(
                          builder -> {
                      builder.property(
                              StandardClientProperties.BUFFER_REQUEST, false);
                  })
                  // ...
                  .build(authenticationDetailsProvider);

Specific client configuration examples

Setting whether to buffer a request
        builder.property(
                StandardClientProperties.BUFFER_REQUEST, shouldBuffer);
Setting an Apache connection manager
        builder.property(
                ApacheClientProperties.CONNECTION_MANAGER,
                connectionManager);
Setting a trust store
        // Server CA goes into the trust store
        KeyStore trustStore =
                keystoreGenerator.createTrustStoreWithServerCa(tlsConfig.getCaBundle());
        builder.property(StandardClientProperties.TRUST_STORE, trustStore);
Setting a key store
        builder.property(
                StandardClientProperties.KEY_STORE,
                new KeyStoreWithPassword(keyStore, keystorePassword));
Setting the SSL context
        builder.property(
                StandardClientProperties.SSL_CONTEXT, sslContext);
Setting a proxy
        builder.property(
                StandardClientProperties.PROXY, proxyConfig);
Setting a hostname verifier
        builder.property(
                StandardClientProperties.HOSTNAME_VERIFIER,
                NoopHostnameVerifier.INSTANCE);

Examples

Examples for OCI Java SDK 3.x.y can be found bmc-examples/src/main/java.

Example for Jersey 2 as HTTP client library (OCI Java SDK 3.x.y)

In order to use Jersey 2 as HTTP client library, a dependency on oci-java-sdk-common-httpclient-jersey needs to be explicitly declared in application's pom.xml. Please refer bmc-jersey-examples/pom.xml

Examples for Jersey 2 as HTTP client library can be found in bmc-other-examples/bmc-jersey-examples

Example for Jersey 3 as HTTP client library (OCI Java SDK 3.x.y)

In order to use Jersey 3 as HTTP client library, a dependency on oci-java-sdk-common-httpclient-jersey3 needs to be explicitly declared in application's pom.xml. Please refer bmc-jersey3-examples/pom.xml

Examples for Jersey 3 as HTTP client library can be found in bmc-other-examples/bmc-jersey3-examples

Known Issues

Potential data corruption issue with OCI Java SDK on binary data upload with RefreshableOnNotAuthenticatedProvider

Details: When using version 1.25.1 or earlier of the OCI Java SDK clients that upload streams of data (for example ObjectStorageClient or FunctionsInvokeClient), either synchronously and asynchronously, and you use a RefreshableOnNotAuthenticatedProvider (for example, for Resource Principals or Instance Principals) you may be affected by silent data corruption.

Workaround: Update the OCI Java SDK client to version 1.25.2 or later. For more information about this issue and workarounds, see Potential data corruption issue for OCI Java SDK on binary data upload with RefreshableOnNotAuthenticatedProvider.

Program hangs for an indefinite time

If the request to the server hangs for an indefinite time and the program gets stuck, it could be because the connection is not released from the Apache connection pool. If you're calling APIs that return a binary/stream response, please make sure to close all the streams returned from the response to release the connections from the connection pool in case of partial reads. If reading the stream completely, the SDK will automatically try to close the stream to release the connection from the connection pool, to disable this feature of auto-closing streams on full read, please call Options.shouldAutoCloseResponseInputStream(false). This is because the SDK for Java supports the Apache Connector for sending requests and managing connections to the service. By default, the Apache Connector supports connection pooling and in the cases where the stream from the response is not closed, the connections don't get released from the connection pool and in turn results in an indefinite wait time. This can be avoided either by closing the streams or switching back to the Jersey default connector, i.e. HttpUrlConnector. You can find more information about the same in the OCI Java SDK Troubleshooting section.

Performance issues and switching between connection closing strategies with the Apache Connector

The Java SDK supports the Apache Connector as the default. The Apache Connector supports the use of two connection closing strategies - ApacheConnectionClosingStrategy.GracefulClosingStrategy and ApacheConnectionClosingStrategy.ImmediateClosingStrategy. When using ApacheConnectionClosingStrategy.GracefulClosingStrategy, streams returned from response are read till the end of the stream when closing the stream. This can introduce additional time when closing the stream with partial read, depending on how large the remaining stream is. Use ApacheConnectionClosingStrategy.ImmediateClosingStrategy for large files with partial reads instead for faster close. One of the disadvantages of using ApacheConnectionClosingStrategy.ImmediateClosingStrategy on the other hand takes longer when using partial read for smaller stream size (< 1MB). Please consider your use-case and change accordingly. For more info please look into : https://github.com/oracle/oci-java-sdk/blob/master/ApacheConnector-README.md.

Note : If both the above Apache Connection closing strategies do not give you optimal results for your use-cases, please consider switching back to Jersey Default HttpUrlConnectorProvider. For more info on Apache Connector, please look into ApacheConnector-README.

Errors may suddenly appear after updating to any of these JDK versions: 8u381, 11.0.20, 17.0.8, and 21.0.0.

The following error message might be encountered:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.oracle.bmc.auth.AbstractAuthenticationDetailsProvider

This issue is a result of the listed Java versions, which have a default maximum signature file size smaller than some Java SDK JARs.

To resolve this problem, you can run Maven with the following parameter: -Djdk.jar.maxSignatureFileSize=16000000

The low default value in Java will be addressed and resolved in upcoming minor Java version releases.
