Turns out, using nimbus.seeds was sufficient.
*import org.apache.storm.utils.NimbusClient;import
org.apache.storm.utils.Utils;Map conf =
Utils.readStormConfig();conf.put("nimbus.seeds",
"localhost"); NimbusClient cc =
NimbusClient.getConfiguredClient(conf); Nimbus.Client
client = cc.getClient();client.killTopology("MyStorm");*
Was able to kill the topology. Am a bit surprised though. I thought doing
this would kill the submitted topology and take me to the next task line of
code in main() (ie: the line of code after I submitted the topology to
Storm).
But killing the topology stops the entire program in this manner:
*:run FAILEDFAILURE: Build failed with an exception.* What went
wrong:Execution failed for task ':run'.> Process 'command
'/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_73.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java''
finished with non-zero exit value 1*
I guess this is why a Storm topology is meant to run forever.
Would've been nice though, if Storm provided a clean way to exit a topology.
Thanks for all the help Matthias!
