Expected Behavior

I would expect to be able to follow line by line commands from the README and have a working example.

As of now, there are a few examples that are missing a mongo-statestore or redis-statestore yaml.

  1. this query state example (mongo-statestore)
  2. the other state example here (mongo-statestore)
  3. the tracing example (redis-statestore)

I believe a docker-compose command should be added as a step in the respective READMEs for users to be able to go thru the examples without any issues. Similar to how the Kafka example here has a docker-compose.yml file to create a local kafka instance with the relevant steps mentioned in the README -- the same thing should be added for the examples listed above.

Actual Behavior

For the querystate example in the repo here, it looks to be querying the saved state from a mongo-statestore, but never actually includes any information to a user on how to create the mongo-statestore. As a result, the example is unable to run and errs:

$ dapr run --components-path ./components/state --app-id query-state-example -H 3600 -- java -Ddapr.api.protocol=HTTP -jar target/dapr-java-sdk-examples-exec.jar io.dapr.examples.querystate.QuerySavedState

Flag --components-path has been deprecated, This flag is deprecated and will be removed in the future releases. Use "resources-path" flag instead

Key err from above is:

FATA[0005] process component mongo-statestore error: [INIT_COMPONENT_FAILURE]: initialization error occurred for mongo-statestore (state.mongodb/v1): init timeout for component mongo-statestore exceeded after 5s  app_id=query-state-example instance=Cassandras-MacBook-Pro.local scope=dapr.runtime type=log ver=1.11.3
❌  The daprd process exited with error code: exit status 1

This same thing occurs for the all examples.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Follow the README instructions here for the query state example

Follow the README instructions here for the state example

Follow the README instructions here for the tracing example

Solution

copy over the local-test-mongo.yml from the sdk-tests/ to both relevant example directories and do the same for the redis example. Or, copy over the yaml from this directory to the local example directory and use that as the mongo/redis configuration. Reference it like the Kafka example and add the command to the README instructions. Something like: docker-compose -f ../sdk-tests/deploy/local-test-mongo.yml up -d with the relevant cleanup command too: docker-compose -f ../sdk-tests/deploy/local-test-mongo.yml down

    May I suggest to use testcontainers to launch the containers? It would require less instructions to follow in order to run the examples.

    That is an interesting discussion. Maybe have it as a separate issue since there is the side of hiding "too much" from the user.

    +1 for this issue. It's not a great DevEx when following the readme and it doesn't work.

    Just tried to run the basic state example (which doesn't depend on Mongo), but dapr is blowing up because it's expecting a mongo component to be installed.

    Had to manually remove the mongo component from the components folder.
