would you have the requirement to monitor multiple vert.x containers from a central dashboard?

We don't ourselves, but its simple enough to do.

We arn't planning to distribute vertx containers, we are planning to embed vertx

lol. embed the vert.x in the console agent by calling vertx.createHttpServer()

We have nothing to do with http haha

have you looked at vertx.metrics? this wouldn't involve javafx

I think you are misunderstanding my requirements

a console agent that gathers metrics from an app running in a vert.x container?

We have an "agent" that runs some decision making, and some networking components We want to add a UI component to this stack so the UI can invoke and do things on the "agent" We don't actually use vertx containers

is this distributed? a single dashboard hooking up to multiple agents?

The UI will be attached to a single agent. There are multiple agents but thats unimportant

how so? the multiple agents sound distributed and you might be running the UI on a different machine (different JVM)

the UI will always be run locally

multiple agents run locally alongside the UI?

usually its one ui per agent

@tieskedh Merged! Took me a little while to figure out what you were doing!

@edvin oops, that's bad...

especially in SmartResize

@tieskedh No, I think it's better now and even more clear what's going on, I just had to first remember what my intention was and it was a little noisy here so I had a hard time concentrating 🙂

Kids, wives, phone calls and dogs.

ah, then it's ok. I only couldn't find a good name for the method...

@tieskedh I liked the name, and you documented it so it should be more than good enough!

the name is partially correct, but reduce means most of the time remove all element. But as I made the method private, we can always change the name...

Good call

Hi all! I'm new here Can somebody help me. What is the right way to make binding of a complex object. Method for simple properties val property = bind(Class::property) not work for val objectProperty = bind(Class::objectProperty) Inside ItemViewModel class

@jkbbwr I've been noodling around with TornadoFx + vertx too. This may have some ideas as I'm trying for something that is superficially similar to what you're trying to do. https://github.com/kastork/simple-dis

Interesting!

More like what @carlw was suggesting, perhaps

I might end up going with the fully detached socket idea anyway as it forces me to do a client api

Well, once you have a Vertx instance, you can participate in Vertx Event Bus pretty much any way you like
