The JProfiler Profiler Framework contributes JProfiler configuration to the application at runtime.
Detection Criterion | enabled set in the config/jprofiler_profiler.yml file |
Tags | jprofiler-profiler=<version> |
For general information on configuring the buildpack, including how to specify configuration values through environment variables, refer to Configuration and Extension.
The framework can be configured by creating or modifying the config/jprofiler_profiler.yml
file in the buildpack fork. The framework uses the Repository
utility support and so it supports the version syntax defined there.

After starting an application with the JPorfiler Profiler enabled, an SSH tunnel must be created to the container. To create that SSH container, execute the following command:
$ cf ssh -N -T -L <LOCAL_PORT>:localhost:<REMOTE_PORT> <APPLICATION_NAME>
The REMOTE_PORT
should match the port
configuration for the application (8849
by default). The LOCAL_PORT
can be any open port on your computer, but typically matches the REMOTE_PORT
where possible.
Once the SSH tunnel has been created, your JProfiler Profiler should connect to localhost:<LOCAL_PORT>
for debugging.
