Spring Boot client to connect to existing JBoss EAP7 ActiveMQ - spring-boot

Question

I've been searching the web but I cannot find an example on how to connect to ActiveMQ on JBoss (up and running) with a Spring-Boot client.
There'se a lot of tutorials from Spring but using an embedded Broker.
Any pointers would be great!
Thanks in advance,
ML
With the info provided, I've got this:
#Configuration
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableJms
public class Application {
#Bean
ActiveMQConnectionFactory activeMQConnectionFactory() {
final String host = "http://127.0.0.1:8080";
ActiveMQConnectionFactory factory = new ActiveMQConnectionFactory(host);
factory.setUserName("user");
factory.setPassword("pwd");
factory.setTrustAllPackages(true);
return factory;
}
#Bean
public JmsListenerContainerFactory<?> myFactory(ConnectionFactory connectionFactory,
DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactoryConfigurer configurer) {
DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactory factory = new DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactory();
// This provides all boot's default to this factory, including the
// message converter
configurer.configure(factory, connectionFactory);
// You could still override some of Boot's default if necessary.
return factory;
}
#Bean // Serialize message content to json using TextMessage
public MessageConverter jacksonJmsMessageConverter() {
MappingJackson2MessageConverter converter = new MappingJackson2MessageConverter();
converter.setTargetType(MessageType.TEXT);
converter.setTypeIdPropertyName("_type");
return converter;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Launch the application
ConfigurableApplicationContext context = SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
JmsTemplate jmsTemplate = context.getBean(JmsTemplate.class);
// Send a message with a POJO - the template reuse the message converter
System.out.println("Sending an email message.");
jmsTemplate.convertAndSend("TestQ", new Email("info#example.com", "Hello"));
}
}
my dependencies in pom.xml:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-activemq</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.activemq</groupId>

<version>5.7.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
But I've got this exception:
2017-06-01 17:55:54.176 INFO 2053 --- [ main] hello.Application : Started Application in 2.02 seconds (JVM running for 5.215)

I don't know what is this:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid connect

For configuration, but change the broker url to your external ActiveMQ server: see http://activemq.apache.org/uri-protocols.html for different protocols (e.g. tcp). You may also need to include a user and password.
I started with this tutorial https://spring.io/guides/gs/messaging-jms/ and made my own edits to get it to work the way I wanted with ActiveMQ, you can also look here for other options: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-messaging.html. There are a few different ways to do this in Spring.
Also included the factory bean as well. From here, I use #JmsListener annotation to listen for messages and jmstemplate to post messages.
import javax.jms.ConnectionFactory;
import org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.jms.DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactoryConfigurer;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.jms.annotation.EnableJms;
import org.springframework.jms.config.DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactory;
import org.springframework.jms.config.JmsListenerContainerFactory;
#Configuration
#EnableJms
public class JMSConfiguration {
private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(JMSConfiguration.class);
#Bean ActiveMQConnectionFactory activeMQConnectionFactory() {
ActiveMQConnectionFactory factory =
new ActiveMQConnectionFactory("tcp://somehost:61616");
factory.setTrustAllPackages(true);
return factory;
}
#Bean
public JmsListenerContainerFactory<?> myFactory(ConnectionFactory connectionFactory,
DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactoryConfigurer configurer) {
DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactory factory = new DefaultJmsListenerContainerFactory();
// This provides all boot's default to this factory, including the
// message converter
configurer.configure(factory, connectionFactory);
// You could still override some of Boot's default if necessary.
return factory;
}
}
