Motan is a cross-language remote procedure call(RPC) framework for rapid development of high performance distributed services.
Related projects in Motan ecosystem:
- Motan-go is golang implementation.
- Motan-PHP is PHP client can interactive with Motan server directly or through Motan-go agent.
- Motan-openresty is a Lua(Luajit) implementation based on Openresty.
- Create distributed services without writing extra code.
- Provides cluster support and integrate with popular service discovery services like Consul or Zookeeper.
- Supports advanced scheduling features like weighted load-balance, scheduling cross IDCs, etc.
- Optimization for high load scenarios, provides high availability in production environment.
- Supports both synchronous and asynchronous calls.
- Support cross-language interactive with Golang, PHP, Lua(Luajit), etc.
The quick start gives very basic example of running client and server on the same machine. For the detailed information about using and developing Motan, please jump to Documents.
The minimum requirements to run the quick start are:
- Add dependencies to pom.
<properties>
<motan.version>1.1.12</motan.version> <!--use the latest version from maven central-->
</properties>

-
Create an interface for both service provider and consumer.
src/main/java/quickstart/FooService.java
package quickstart; public interface FooService { public String hello(String name); }
-
Write an implementation, create and start RPC Server.
src/main/java/quickstart/FooServiceImpl.java
package quickstart; public class FooServiceImpl implements FooService { public String hello(String name) { System.out.println(name + " invoked rpc service"); return "hello " + name; } }
src/main/resources/motan_server.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:motan="http://api.weibo.com/schema/motan" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd http://api.weibo.com/schema/motan http://api.weibo.com/schema/motan.xsd"> <!-- service implementation bean --> <bean id="serviceImpl" class="quickstart.FooServiceImpl" /> <!-- exporting service by motan --> <motan:service interface="quickstart.FooService" ref="serviceImpl" export="8002" /> </beans>
src/main/java/quickstart/Server.java
package quickstart; import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext; import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext; public class Server { public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException { ApplicationContext applicationContext = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:motan_server.xml"); System.out.println("server start..."); } }
Execute main function in Server will start a motan server listening on port 8002.
-
Create and start RPC Client.
src/main/resources/motan_client.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:motan="http://api.weibo.com/schema/motan" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd http://api.weibo.com/schema/motan http://api.weibo.com/schema/motan.xsd"> <!-- reference to the remote service --> <motan:referer id="remoteService" interface="quickstart.FooService" directUrl="localhost:8002"/> </beans>
src/main/java/quickstart/Client.java
package quickstart; import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext; import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext; public class Client { public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException { ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:motan_client.xml"); FooService service = (FooService) ctx.getBean("remoteService"); System.out.println(service.hello("motan")); } }
Execute main function in Client will invoke the remote service and print response.
-
Based on the
Synchronous calls
example, add@MotanAsync
annotation to interfaceFooService
.package quickstart; import com.weibo.api.motan.transport.async.MotanAsync; @MotanAsync public interface FooService { public String hello(String name); }
-
Include the plugin into the POM file to set
target/generated-sources/annotations/
as source folder.<plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>1.10</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>generate-sources</phase> <goals> <goal>add-source</goal> </goals> <configuration> <sources> <source>${project.build.directory}/generated-sources/annotations</source> </sources> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin>
-
Modify the attribute
interface
of referer inmotan_client.xml
fromFooService
toFooServiceAsync
.<motan:referer id="remoteService" interface="quickstart.FooServiceAsync" directUrl="localhost:8002"/>
-
Start asynchronous calls.
public static void main(String[] args) { ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(new String[] {"classpath:motan_client.xml"}); FooServiceAsync service = (FooServiceAsync) ctx.getBean("remoteService"); // sync call System.out.println(service.hello("motan")); // async call ResponseFuture future = service.helloAsync("motan async "); System.out.println(future.getValue()); // multi call ResponseFuture future1 = service.helloAsync("motan async multi-1"); ResponseFuture future2 = service.helloAsync("motan async multi-2"); System.out.println(future1.getValue() + ", " + future2.getValue()); // async with listener FutureListener listener = new FutureListener() { @Override public void operationComplete(Future future) throws Exception { System.out.println("async call " + (future.isSuccess() ? "success! value:" + future.getValue() : "fail! exception:" + future.getException().getMessage())); } }; ResponseFuture future3 = service.helloAsync("motan async multi-1"); ResponseFuture future4 = service.helloAsync("motan async multi-2"); future3.addListener(listener); future4.addListener(listener); }
