6 years ago The stack trace shows that parsing the VCAP_SERVICES env var fails. It must be simply the case that its structure for your app using a CUPS differs from the ordinary case.
You should simply edit the app.js code to suit your environment.
Try modify these lines
https://github.com/ibm-messaging/message-hub-samples/blob/master/kafka-nodejs-console-sample/app.js#L38-L50
to extract the info from your specific VCAP_SERVICES and get the 3 values and assign them to the objects used by the demo app.
e.g.
opts.brokers = your_list_of_brokers_from_your_vcap
opts.api_key = your_api_key_from_your_vcap
adminRestInstance = new MessageHubAdminRest(wrap_vcap_service(your_api_key_from_your_vcap, your_admin_url_from_your_vcap))
Hi,
I'm trying to use a cf cups command to link to a public MH service from a private environment to test out the sample code and connectivity. Unfortunately, the app fails to start as it can't find the messagehub service from a "user-provided" service type. The error is in the npm package called message-hub-rest. Could you please take a look?
Thanks!
