Resource class:
package com.mycomp.spring.springboot.resources;
import org.springframework.core.env.Environment;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
import com.mycomp.spring.springboot.services.BankService;
#RestController
public class BankResource {
private final Environment env;
private final BankService bankService;
public BankResource(Environment env, BankService bankService) {
this.env = env;
this.bankService = bankService;
}
#RequestMapping("/bankname")
public String getBankName() {
System.out.println("REQUEST RECEIVED");
bankService.getUserAccounts("tets");
return env.getProperty("app.name");
}
}
App class:
package com.mycomp.spring.springboot;
import java.util.Arrays;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.WebApplicationType;
import com.mycomp.spring.springboot.config.Appconfiguration;
import com.mycomp.spring.springboot.initializers.Appintializer;
import com.mycomp.spring.springboot.listeners.AppListener;
/**
*
*
*/
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(Appconfiguration.class);
app.addInitializers(new Appintializer());
app.addListeners(new AppListener());
app.setWebApplicationType(WebApplicationType.SERVLET);
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(args));
app.run(args);
// SpringApplication.run(App.class, args);
}
}
AppConfiguration class:
package com.mycomp.spring.springboot.config;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
#Configuration
#EnableAutoConfiguration
public class Appconfiguration {
}
When I run the app, it starts well but when I hit http://localhost:port/bankname it gives me 404.
However when I change my app class like this I am not getting 404 and the resource class returns the bankname as expected.
#SpringBootApplication
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(Appconfiguration.class);
// app.addInitializers(new Appintializer());
// app.addListeners(new AppListener());
// app.setWebApplicationType(WebApplicationType.SERVLET);
// System.out.println(Arrays.toString(args));
// app.run(args);
SpringApplication.run(App.class, args);
}
}
Any idea as to why I am getting 404 when I initialize the spring application by creating an instance instead of starting with the static run method?

Try this code for Resource file:
#Controller
public class BankResource {
// Some Codes ...
}
Change #RestController to #Controller.
