+ * 4xx
+ * 5xx
+ * others
+
+2. **Threads**

+
+# Monitoring Java Spring Boot Applications
+
+Netdata can be used to monitor running Java [Spring Boot](https://spring.io/) applications that expose their metrics with the use of the **Spring Boot Actuator** included in Spring Boot library.
+
+The Spring Boot Actuator exposes these metrics over HTTP and is very easy to use:
+* add `org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator` to your application dependencies
+* set `endpoints.metrics.sensitive=false` in your `application.properties`
+
+You can create custom Metrics by add and inject a PublicMetrics in your application.
+This is a example to add custom metrics:
+```java
+package com.example;
+
+import org.springframework.boot.actuate.endpoint.PublicMetrics;
+import org.springframework.boot.actuate.metrics.Metric;
+import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
+
+import java.lang.management.ManagementFactory;
+import java.lang.management.MemoryPoolMXBean;
+import java.util.ArrayList;
+import java.util.Collection;
+
+@Service
+public class HeapPoolMetrics implements PublicMetrics {
+
+ private static final String PREFIX = "mempool.";
+ private static final String KEY_EDEN = PREFIX + "eden";
+ private static final String KEY_SURVIVOR = PREFIX + "survivor";
+ private static final String KEY_TENURED = PREFIX + "tenured";
+
+ @Override
+ public Collection<Metric<?>> metrics() {
+ Collection<Metric<?>> result = new ArrayList<>(4);
+ for (MemoryPoolMXBean mem : ManagementFactory.getMemoryPoolMXBeans()) {
+ String poolName = mem.getName();
+ String name = null;
+ if (poolName.indexOf("Eden Space") != -1) {
+ name = KEY_EDEN;
+ } else if (poolName.indexOf("Survivor Space") != -1) {
+ name = KEY_SURVIVOR;
+ } else if (poolName.indexOf("Tenured Gen") != -1 || poolName.indexOf("Old Gen") != -1) {
+ name = KEY_TENURED;
+ }
+
+ if (name != null) {
+ result.add(newMemoryMetric(name, mem.getUsage().getMax()));
+ result.add(newMemoryMetric(name + ".init", mem.getUsage().getInit()));
+ result.add(newMemoryMetric(name + ".committed", mem.getUsage().getCommitted()));
+ result.add(newMemoryMetric(name + ".used", mem.getUsage().getUsed()));
+ }
+ }
+ return result;
+ }
+
+ private Metric<Long> newMemoryMetric(String name, long bytes) {
+ return new Metric<>(name, bytes / 1024);
+ }
+}
+```
+
+Please refer [Spring Boot Actuator: Production-ready features](https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/production-ready.html) and [81. Actuator - Part IX. ‘How-to’ guides](https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-actuator.html) for more information.
+
+## Using netdata springboot module
+
+The springboot module is enabled by default. It looks up `http://localhost:8080/metrics` and `http://127.0.0.1:8080/metrics` to detect Spring Boot application by default. You can change it by editing `/etc/netdata/python.d/springboot.conf` (to edit it on your system run `/etc/netdata/edit-config python.d/springboot.conf`).
+
+This module defines some common charts, and you can add custom charts by change the configurations.
+
+The configuration format is like:
+```yaml
+<id>:
+ name: '<name>'
+ url: '<metrics endpoint>' # ex. http://localhost:8080/metrics
+ user: '<username>' # optional
+ pass: '<password>' # optional
+ defaults:
+ [<chart-id>]: true|false
+ extras:
+ - id: '<chart-id>'
+ options:
+ title: '***'
+ units: '***'
+ family: '***'
+ context: 'springboot.***'
+ charttype: 'stacked' | 'area' | 'line'
+ lines:
+ - { dimension: 'myapp_ok', name: 'ok', algorithm: 'absolute', multiplier: 1, divisor: 1} # it shows "myapp.ok" metrics
+ - { dimension: 'myapp_ng', name: 'ng', algorithm: 'absolute', multiplier: 1, divisor: 1} # it shows "myapp.ng" metrics
+```
+
+By default, it creates `response_code`, `threads`, `gc_time`, `gc_ope` abd `heap` charts.
+You can disable the default charts by set `defaults.<chart-id>: false`.
+
+The dimension name of extras charts should replace `.` to `_`.
+
+Please check [springboot.conf](springboot.conf) for more examples. \ No newline at end of file
