I want to use the AppSensor framework in order to add Intrusion Detection and Automated Response to my C# web application.
But I'm not sure how to get the AppSensor API running so I can access it from my C# application via RESTful.
Let me first tell you that I'm not too familiair with Java/Maven/Gradle, but I do know how to access a REST API from C#.
I tried to followed the Getting Started page and downloaded the AppSensor project from GitHub via the Git Bash command line: git clone https://github.com/jtmelton/appsensor.git.
Then I navigate to the AppSensor Directory (on my computer) via Git Bash: cd appsensor
After I'm in the AppSensor directory, I install the multi-module parent by: mvn -N install
After it's done installing it tells me that the build is a success and then I decide to run the tests with the command: mvn test
And when that's done Git Bash tells me every test went successful. But now I'm kind of stuck in a scense where I don't know what to do next. I want to 'deploy' my AppSensor API so I can use it in my C# application.
Somewhere on the GitHub documentation is says that mvn spring-boot:run should run/deploy an component. However when I'm in the appsensor-parent directory and run this command it gives me this error:
[ERROR] No plugin found for prefix 'spring-boot' in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repositories [local (C:\Users\dbr\.m2\repository), central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)] -> [Help 1]

I did a little research and found out that the command mvn deploy should deploy the components? But when I enter the deploy command it gives me a build error at the first component (appsensor-parent) and stops deploying. It also kindly gives me this error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonatype.plugins:nexus-staging-maven-plugin:1.6.3:deploy (injected-nexus-deploy) on project appsensor-parent: Execution injected-nexus-deploy of goal org.sonatype.plugins:nexus-staging-maven-plugin:1.6.3:deploy failed: Server credentials with ID "ossrh" not found! -> [Help 1]

I have also tried only putting the components I need (AppSensor Core, Analysis Engine, Storage, Configuration, Access Controllers, REST Client, REST Server) into a single folder. And then attempting to deploy it by changing the POM.XML file so that only these components are in the <modules>...</modules> but that also doesn't work for me.
What does work however is the DemoSetup but I have no clue where to find the REST API (through my browser) when running this Demo.
Could anyone help me out by getting the REST API server running so that I can access it through my browser and also with my C# application?
I dug a little deeper into AppSensors GitHub page and found out that I should be able to reach the API, by deploying the AppSensor WS Rest Server from:
/example-apps/appsensor-ws-rest-server-bootI deployed it by inserting the following commands into Git Bash:
I was then able to reach the API from my browser by going to
http://localhost:8085/api/v1.0/responsesOne I was on the page it gave me this notification:
So all seems to be good but when I refresh the page, the entire page becomes white and Git Bash gives me this error:
However when I use the Google Chromes Advanced REST client extension and navigate to the API it gives me a
200 OK. Which should mean that it does work and the error occurs because its empty?
