I am using posgresql testcontainer in springboottest. As I have multiple tests involving this testcontainer, hence I have used static testcontainer which will be invoked once for all tests of 1 junit class and shutdown after all tests are executed.
This I have implemented using ParameterResolver, BeforeEachCallback.
Problem with this approach is that datasource metadata like jdbc-url, db name , host , port configured in default application.yml is not used directly in testcontainer properties, instead I have hardcoded those values because springboot properties are not available at that time.
is there any better approach where I can use static testcontainers having BeforeEachCallback feature whose values are fetched from default application.yml ?
#SpringBootTest
class SampleTest extends TestContainerBase {
#Test
void test1() {
//some code
}
}
#ExtendWith(ContainerExtension.class)
#ResourceLock(Environment.ID)
public abstract class TestContainerBase {
protected static String jdbcUrl;
protected static String username;
protected static String password;
#BeforeAll
static void prepareContainerEnvironment(Environment env) {
jdbcUrl = env.getJdbcUrl();
username = env.getUsername();
password = env.getPassword();
}
#DynamicPropertySource
static void dynamicPropertySource(DynamicPropertyRegistry registry) {
registry.add("spring.datasource-.jdbc-url", () -> jdbcUrl);
registry.add("spring.datasource-.username", () -> username);
registry.add("spring.datasource-.password", () -> password);
registry.add("spring.datasource-.driver-class-name", () -> "org.postgresql.Driver");
}
}
public class ContainerExtension implements ParameterResolver, BeforeEachCallback {
// overridden supportsParameter and resolveParameter
}
I want that myDB , sa , sa are read from application.yml. How can I get application.yml values here in this class ? As springboot context is not yet loaded so I am unable to think of any alternative to get those values.
public class ContainerResource extends Environment {
#Container
protected static PostgreSQLContainer postgreSQLContainer =
new PostgreSQLContainer("artifactory.devtools.syd.c1.macquarie.com:9996/postgres:11")
.withDatabaseName("myDB")
.withUsername("username")
.withPassword("password");
ContainerEnvironmentResource() {
postgreSQLContainer.start();
this.setJdbcUrl(postgreSQLContainer.getJdbcUrl());
this.setUsername(postgreSQLContainer.getUsername());
this.setPassword(postgreSQLContainer.getPassword());
}
}
It looks like there is now a dedicated project just to integrate Testcontainers and Spring-Boot. As I understand the documentation it should be transparent to the code as everything is done using Spring magic.

I have an env variable $MONGODB_URI
echo $MONGODB_URI
mongodb://localhost:27017
My application.properties
mongoUri=${MONGODB_URI}
My Config.java
#Configuration
public class Config {
#Value("${mongoUri}")
private String mongoUri;
..
}
When I try to start up the app in IntelliJ Idea, I get
Could not resolve placeholder 'MONGODB_URI' in value "${MONGODB_URI}"
The app starts up fine with
./gradlew bootRun
How can I properly configure IntelliJ to read from the environment? I'll need to swap out the db url depending on if it's prod, local, etc.
You need to run to your application with environment configuration as shown below in image:
sample code to verify
#RestController
public class StatusController {
private final Environment environment;
public StatusController(Environment environment) {
this.environment = environment;
}
#GetMapping("/env")
public String envValue() {
return environment.getProperty("MONGODB_URI");
}
}
Though similar, the specific problem I have is not addressed in Use JASPIC auth module on WebSphere 8.5
I am getting the following error message:
SECJ8027E: The path and name of file where JASPI persistent registrations are stored must be specified using property com.ibm.websphere.jaspi.configuration.
I can set the custom property in the administration to some existing folder but I wanted to make sure that is the right approach or if there is some step I was missing.
Note I am specifically using the "embedded in application" approach rather than a server installed JASPIC module so I have something like this
#WebListener
public class JaspicInitializer implements
ServletContextListener {
#Override
public void contextInitialized(final ServletContextEvent sce) {
final Map<String, String> options = new HashMap<>();
AuthConfigFactory.getFactory()
.registerConfigProvider(AuthModuleConfigProvider.class.getName(), options, "HttpServlet", null, null);
}
}
I had the error on both WebSphere 8.5.5.11 and 9.0.0.3
From #Uux comment, I changed the way I do the registration so it no longer give the error.
#WebListener
public class JaspicInitializer implements
ServletContextListener {
private String registrationID;
#Override
public void contextDestroyed(final ServletContextEvent sce) {
AuthConfigFactory.getFactory().removeRegistration(registrationID);
}
#Override
public void contextInitialized(final ServletContextEvent sce) {
final ServletContext context = sce.getServletContext();
registrationID = AuthConfigFactory.getFactory()
.registerConfigProvider(new AuthModuleConfigProvider(), "HttpServlet",
context.getVirtualServerName() + " " + context.getContextPath(), "JEE Sample");
}
}
Also WebSphere Global Security needs to be configured with
Enable application security
Enable Java Authentication SPI (JASPI)
I need to add a bunch of Properties backed in the DB at start up time.
To test the whole thing works, I started with this (the ds.username property below comes from catalina.properties. It's there just to verify I don't break anything):
public class PropertiesInitializer implements ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableWebApplicationContext> {
#Override
public void initialize(ConfigurableWebApplicationContext ctx) {
try {
props.put("hello", "goodbye");
MutablePropertySources propertySources = ctx.getEnvironment().getPropertySources();
propertySources.addFirst(new MapPropertySource("dbProps", props));
}
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I have a #Controller and I'm doing this:
#Autowired
Environment env;
#Value( "${hello}" )
public String hello;
#Value( "${ds.username}" )
public String un;
...
So, when I print those, 'hello' and 'un' are empty but the env.getProperties actually return the right values.
Why?
Thanks

${...} properties are not enabled by default, you need to declare PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer as a bean in order to enable them.
Environment works out of the box because it doesn't require special configuration.
I'm working on an application library with a utility class called "Config" which is backed by the Spring Environment object and provides strongly typed getters for all the applications configuration values.
The property sources for the configuration can vary depending on environment (DEV/PROD) and usage (standalone/test/webapp), and can range from the default ones (system & env props) to custom database and JNDI sources.
What I'm struggling with is how to let the apps consuming this library easily configure the property source(s) used by Environment, such that the properties are available for use in our Config class and via the PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer.
We're still using XML configuration, so ideally this could be configured in XML something like.
<bean id="propertySources" class="...">
<property name="sources">
<list>
<ref local="jndiPropertySource"/>
<ref local="databasePropertySource"/>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
...and then injected somehow into the Environment's property sources collection.
I've read that something like this may not be possible due to the timing of the app context lifecycle, and that this may need to be done using an application initializer class.
Any ideas?
It depends on how you want to use the properties, if it is to inject the properties using ${propertyname} syntax, then yes just having PropertySourcesPlaceHolderConfigurer will work, which internally has access to the PropertySources registered in the environment.
If you plan to use Environment directly, using say env.getProperty(), then you are right - the properties using PropertySourcesPlaceHolderConfigurer are not visible here. The only way then is to inject it using Java code, there are two ways that I know of:
a. Using Java Config:
#Configuration
#PropertySource("classpath:/app.properties")
public class SpringConfig{
}
b. Using a custom ApplicationContextInitializer, the way it is described here
I came up with the following which seems to work, but I'm fairly new to Spring, so I'm not so sure how it will hold up under different use cases.
Basically, the approach is to extend PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer and add a setter to allow the user to easily configure a List of PropertySource objects in XML. After creation, the property sources are copied to the current Environment.
This basically allows the property sources to be configured in one place, but used by both placholder configuration and Environment.getProperty scenarios.
Extended PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer
public class ConfigSourcesConfigurer
extends PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer
implements EnvironmentAware, InitializingBean {
private Environment environment;
private List<PropertySource> sourceList;
// Allow setting property sources as a List for easier XML configuration
public void setPropertySources(List<PropertySource> propertySources) {
this.sourceList = propertySources;
MutablePropertySources sources = new MutablePropertySources();
copyListToPropertySources(this.sourceList, sources);
super.setPropertySources(sources);
}
#Override
public void setEnvironment(Environment environment) {
// save off Environment for later use
this.environment = environment;
super.setEnvironment(environment);
}
#Override
public void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception {
// Copy property sources to Environment
MutablePropertySources envPropSources = ((ConfigurableEnvironment)environment).getPropertySources();
copyListToPropertySources(this.sourceList, envPropSources);
}
private void copyListToPropertySources(List<PropertySource> list, MutablePropertySources sources) {
// iterate in reverse order to insure ordering in property sources object
for(int i = list.size() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
sources.addFirst(list.get(i));
}
}
}
beans.xml file showing basic configuration
<beans>
<context:annotation-config/>
<context:component-scan base-package="com.mycompany" />
<bean class="com.mycompany.ConfigSourcesConfigurer">
<property name="propertySources">
<list>
<bean class="org.mycompany.CustomPropertySource" />
<bean class="org.springframework.core.io.support.ResourcePropertySource">
<constructor-arg value="classpath:default-config.properties" />
</bean>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
<bean class="com.mycompany.TestBean">
<property name="stringValue" value="${placeholder}" />
</bean>
</beans>
The following worked for me with Spring 3.2.4 .
PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer must be registered statically in order to process the placeholders.
The custom property source is registered in the init method and as the default property sources are already registered, it can itself be parameterized using placeholders.
JavaConfig class:
#Configuration
#PropertySource("classpath:propertiesTest2.properties")
public class TestConfig {
#Autowired
private ConfigurableEnvironment env;
#Value("${param:NOVALUE}")
private String param;
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
env.getPropertySources().addFirst(new CustomPropertySource(param));
}
#Bean
public static PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer placeHolderConfigurer() {
return new PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer();
}
#Bean
public TestBean1 testBean1() {
return new TestBean1();
}
}
Custom property source:
public class CustomPropertySource extends PropertySource<Object> {
public CustomPropertySource(String param) {
super("custom");
System.out.println("Custom property source initialized with param " + param + ".");
}
#Override
public Object getProperty(String name) {
return "IT WORKS";
}
}
Test bean (getValue() will output "IT WORKS"):
public class TestBean1 {
#Value("${value:NOVALUE}")
private String value;
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
}
I had a similar problem, in my case I'm using Spring in a standalone application, after load the default configurations I may need apply another properties file (lazy load configs) present in a config directory. My solution was inspired this Spring Boot documentation, but with no dependency of Spring Boot. See below the source code:
#PropertySources(#PropertySource(value = "classpath:myapp-default.properties"))
public class PersistenceConfiguration {
private final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(getClass());
private ConfigurableEnvironment env;
#Bean
public static PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer placeholderConfigurerDev(ConfigurableEnvironment env) {
return new PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer();
}
#Autowired
public void setConfigurableEnvironment(ConfigurableEnvironment env) {
for(String profile: env.getActiveProfiles()) {
final String fileName = "myapp-" + profile + ".properties";
final Resource resource = new ClassPathResource(fileName);
if (resource.exists()) {
try {
MutablePropertySources sources = env.getPropertySources();
sources.addFirst(new PropertiesPropertySource(fileName,PropertiesLoaderUtils.loadProperties(resource)));
} catch (Exception ex) {
log.error(ex.getMessage(), ex);
throw new RuntimeException(ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
}
}
this.env = env;
}
...
}
I recently ran into the issue of how to register custom property sources in the environment. My specific problem is that I have a library with a Spring configuration that I want to be imported into the Spring application context, and it requires custom property sources. However, I don't necessarily have control over all of the places where the application context is created. Because of this, I do not want to use the recommended mechanisms of ApplicationContextInitializer or register-before-refresh in order to register the custom property sources.
What I found really frustrating is that using the old PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer, it was easy to subclass and customize the configurers completely within the Spring configuration. In contrast, to customize property sources, we are told that we have to do it not in the Spring configuration itself, but before the application context is initialized.
After some research and trial and error, I discovered that it is possible to register custom property sources from inside of the Spring configuration, but you have to be careful how you do it. The sources need to be registered before any PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurers execute in the context. You can do this by making the source registration a BeanFactoryPostProcessor with PriorityOrdered and an order that is higher precedence than the PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer that uses the sources.
I wrote this class, which does the job:
package example;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Properties;
import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanInitializationException;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanFactoryPostProcessor;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.config.ConfigurableListableBeanFactory;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware;

import org.springframework.core.io.support.PropertiesLoaderSupport;
/**
* This is an abstract base class that can be extended by any class that wishes
* to become a custom property source in the Spring context.
* <p>
* This extends from the standard Spring class PropertiesLoaderSupport, which
* contains properties that specify property resource locations, plus methods
* for loading properties from specified resources. These are all available to
* be used from the Spring configuration, and by subclasses of this class.
* <p>
* This also implements a number of Spring flag interfaces, all of which are
* required to maneuver instances of this class into a position where they can
* register their property sources BEFORE PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer
* executes to substitute variables in the Spring configuration:
* <ul>
* <li>BeanFactoryPostProcessor - Guarantees that this bean will be instantiated
* before other beans in the context. It also puts it in the same phase as
* PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer, which is also a BFPP. The
* postProcessBeanFactory method is used to register the property source.</li>
* <li>PriorityOrdered - Allows the bean priority to be specified relative to
* PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer so that this bean can be executed first.
* </li>
* <li>ApplicationContextAware - Provides access to the application context and
* its environment so that the created property source can be registered.</li>
* </ul>
* <p>
* The Spring configuration for subclasses should contain the following
* properties:
* <ul>
* <li>propertySourceName - The name of the property source this will register.</li>
* <li>location(s) - The location from which properties will be loaded.</li>
* <li>addBeforeSourceName (optional) - If specified, the resulting property
* source will be added before the given property source name, and will
* therefore take precedence.</li>
* <li>order (optional) - The order in which this source should be executed
* relative to other BeanFactoryPostProcessors. This should be used in
* conjunction with addBeforeName so that if property source factory "psfa"
* needs to register its property source before the one from "psfb", "psfa"
* executes AFTER "psfb".
* </ul>

}
}
Of note here is that the default order of this property source factory class is higher precedence than the default order of PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer.
Also, the registration of the property source happens in postProcessBeanFactory, which means that it will execute in the correct order relative to the PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer. I discovered the hard way that InitializingBean and afterPropertiesSet do not respect the order parameter, and I gave up on that approach as being wrong and redundant.
Finally, because this is a BeanFactoryPostProcessor, it is a bad idea to try to wire much in the way of dependencies. Therefore, the class accesses the environment directly through the application context, which it obtains using ApplicationContextAware.
In my case, I needed the property source to decrypt password properties, which I implemented using the following subclass:
package example;
import java.util.Properties;
/**
* This is a property source factory that creates a property source that can
* process properties for substituting into a Spring configuration.
* <p>
* The only thing that distinguishes this from a normal Spring property source
* is that it decrypts encrypted passwords.
*
* #author rjsmith2
*
*/
public class PasswordPropertySourceFactory extends
AbstractPropertySourceFactory {
private static final PasswordHelper passwordHelper = new PasswordHelper();
private String[] passwordProperties;
public String[] getPasswordProperties() {
return passwordProperties;
}
public void setPasswordProperties(String[] passwordProperties) {
this.passwordProperties = passwordProperties;
}
public void setPasswordProperty(String passwordProperty) {
this.passwordProperties = new String[] { passwordProperty };
}
#Override
protected void convertProperties(Properties props) {
// Adjust password fields by decrypting them.
if (passwordProperties != null) {
for (String propName : passwordProperties) {
final String propValue = props.getProperty(propName);
if (propValue != null) {
final String plaintext = passwordHelper
.decryptString(propValue);
props.setProperty(propName, plaintext);
}
}
}
}
}
Finally, I specifed the property source factory in my Spring configuration:
<!-- Enable property resolution via PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer.
The order has to be larger than the ones used by custom property sources
so that those property sources are registered before any placeholders
are substituted. -->
<context:property-placeholder order="1000" ignore-unresolvable="true" />
<!-- Register a custom property source that reads DB properties, and
decrypts the database password. -->
<bean class="example.PasswordPropertySourceFactory">
<property name="propertySourceName" value="DBPropertySource" />
<property name="location" value="classpath:db.properties" />
<property name="passwordProperty" value="db.password" />
<property name="ignoreResourceNotFound" value="true" />
<!-- Order must be lower than on property-placeholder element. -->
<property name="order" value="100" />
</bean>
To be honest, with the defaults for order in PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer and AbstractPropertySourceFactory, it is probably not even necessary to specify order in the Spring configuration.
Nonetheless, this works, and it does not require any fiddling with the application context initialization.
