Connect to Pipedrive Data from a Connection Pool in Jetty



The Pipedrive JDBC Driver supports connection pooling: This article shows how to connect faster to Pipedrive data from Web apps in Jetty.

The CData JDBC driver for Pipedrive is easy to integrate with Java Web applications. This article shows how to efficiently connect to Pipedrive data in Jetty by configuring the driver for connection pooling. You will configure a JNDI resource for Pipedrive in Jetty.

Configure the JDBC Driver for Salesforce as a JNDI Data Source

Follow the steps below to connect to Salesforce from Jetty.

  1. Enable the JNDI module for your Jetty base. The following command enables JNDI from the command-line:

    java -jar ../start.jar --add-to-startd=jndi
  2. Add the CData and license file, located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory, into the lib subfolder of the context path.
  3. Declare the resource and its scope. Enter the required connection properties in the resource declaration. This example declares the Pipedrive data source at the level of the Web app, in WEB-INF\jetty-env.xml.

    <Configure id='pipedrivedemo' class="org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext"> <New id="pipedrivedemo" class="org.eclipse.jetty.plus.jndi.Resource"> <Arg><Ref refid="pipedrivedemo"/></Arg> <Arg>jdbc/pipedrivedb</Arg> <Arg> <New class="cdata.jdbc.pipedrive.PipedriveDriver"> <Set name="url">jdbc:pipedrive:</Set> <Set name="AuthScheme">Basic</Set> <Set name="CompanyDomain">MyCompanyDomain</Set> <Set name="APIToken">MyAPIToken</Set> </New> </Arg> </New> </Configure>
  4. Configure the resource in the Web.xml:

    jdbc/pipedrivedb javax.sql.DataSource Container
  5. You can then access Pipedrive with a lookup to java:comp/env/jdbc/pipedrivedb: InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(); DataSource mypipedrive = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/pipedrivedb");
