Calling APIs in my Django Rest app from a different Spring Boot 2 app - spring-boot

I have a custom spring boot 2 app which is already integrated with key cloak and provide apis to authenticate users. I just want to use its APIs in my Django rest app or in simple words I want to use APIs from an external app in my Django rest app. I searched for a solution but I couldn't find one. Can please somebody tell me how to do so ?
Thanks in advance

Web API Notification using Spring Boot

I am looking at creating Notification in Google Chrome, using Spring Boot. The notification is nowadays common on all sites.
The Spring Boot Admin module does create the same notification if the client application monitored goes down or comes up.
Can some help me with the same, very less support on the internet for the same? Even if the concept is clarified I can share a sample code for Spring boot and make it public via git. Else if a working sample help will also be appreciated.
We have JS way of creating the same, using new Notification('Title',) and window.webkitNotifications.createNotification.
I have solved it using 2 parts.
Server-Sent-Events (sse) emitters with Spring boot and Notification Web APIs
Adding the sample code here
Hope it helps someone looking for a similar solution.

How enable Angular Universal with a Java/Spring backend?

I have an app, where backend implements on Spring using Spring Boot and front-end side use Angular2. Can somebody help me and explain how to integrate Universal using Java becken. Or show me a good example how I can do that.
how to integrate Universal using Java beckend?
You cannot do that directly as universal needs a different server side technology -nodejs
But you have a another (better) solution
Spin off a separate nodejs app for the angular and universal then route all the API calls through the nodeJs to your Spring boot application. Now your spring boot application will be just a (micro)service which will only deal with the data, not the presentation (markup/style etc)

How can I use multiple Oauth2 SSO Servers on a single Spring boot application with Spring Cloud Security Oauth2?

I'd like to give users the option to login to a Spring Boot web application using their Google or Facebook account.
I checked The Spring Cloud Security documentation and also This GitHub issue to add such SSO functionality, but on both they only show how to configure one SSO server, so it's either Google or Facebook.
How can I add both options? on the web front-end I will add a button for each option so the users can choose which account to use, either Google or Facebook.
Or I am choosing the wrong package and should use something different altogether to achieve this?
Thanks!
You basically have to install a separate authentication filter for each provider. There's a tutorial here: https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-oauth2/.

Spring REST API for web- and mobile-clients

This is my first question on StackOverflow and I hope someone can help me. :-)
I am planning to build a web-application (backend) with spring roo. For the backend I will use Spring and Hibernate/JPA. In the future I will implement a web client (JSF/Primefaces), a mobile client (Android) and a Windows App.
With spring roo it is easy to create a layered architecture with domain classes, repositories and services. This part is fun.
But now I am thinking about remoting and how to connect all the clients (web, mobile, windows) with my backend.
1.) What do you prefer for the remoting between client and backend? SOAP-Web Services or a REST-API (e.g. with JSON).
2.) If REST-API: How should the API look like for authentication/login functionality? REST is resource-oriented but how do you implement authentication with REST API?
At the moment I think a REST-API is a good idea. Because I am using spring it is easy to create a Spring MVC controller with REST support. But is this the correct way to implement a REST API for all the three devices? The web client e.g. should be implemented with JSF and Primefaces and I donĀ“t use spring MVC for the web layer.
3.)Can I nevertheless use Spring MVC controllers to build the REST API (together with JSF in the web layer)? Or is there a better way?
1.) What do you prefer for the remoting between client and backend? SOAP-Web Services or a REST-API (e.g. with JSON).
I don't have too much experience with SOAP-WS, but I have a ton of experience with REST-APIs using JSON. There are many implementations for mobile, web and server side clients that are fairly simple to implement.
2.) If REST-API: How should the API look like for authentication/login functionality? REST is resource oriented but how to implement authentication with REST API?
If you are already using spring, I recommend securing your API with Spring Security. You can use spring security even if you don't end up going with Spring MVC for your API implementation. There are many ways to secure a rest API with spring security, but I the simplest is to send the basic auth header with every request to a secure URI
3.)Can I nevertheless use Spring MVC controllers to build the REST API (together with JSF in the web layer)? Or is there a better way?
Spring MVC Controllers will work fine, but I would recommend going with RestEasy or Jersey. I find them to be more flexable.
I agree with #mad_fox. Additionally, i want to add another option regarding your question#2. If you dont want to use Spring security, you can write your own token based authentication mechanism using spring and basic java interceptors.
You can store the token in your browser local storage.

Looking for the right way: Spring Social + Spring RESTful API + Spring WebApp + Mobile Clients

I have a RESTful API built with Spring 3.1, using Spring Security as well. I have a web application, also a Spring 3.1 MVC application. I am planning to have mobile clients accessing my REST API. So my API is the central place to authenticate, get data served from, etc.. It all makes sense so far.
Now what I cannot wrap my head around is how to add Spring Social in an easy and smart way. How did you do it? Did you maybe only move the ConnectionRepository to the API? Or did you have the API do it all? I want to prevent double-authorization for each client-technology by all means (preventing double-authorization meaning userA connects to facebook in the webapp, and then starts using our mobile client and should NOT be asked to connect to facebook again just b/c userA is using a different client).
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
The solution we use it to secure our rest-webservices using spring security, with a cookie based remember me service. This uses well documented traditional spring-security techniques.
We then plugged in spring-social to our system, which then simply logs in the user as normal using spring secruity. The social api looks up the, for example, facebook id in your db table, if it finds existing connection logs the user in using their account on your system (and can redirect to sign up page etc).
I suggest breaking down the question into more specific areas.
