I tried to add some entities in the db shema
config:
#Configuration
#ComponentScan(ApplicationConfig.basePackage)
public class ApplicationConfig {
public final static String basePackage = "test"
}
spring container invocation:
public class StartApp {
public static void main(String... args) throws Exception{
ApplicationContext context = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(ApplicationConfig.class);
TestEntityRepository repository = (TestEntityRepository) context.getBean("testEntityRepository");
repository.save(new TestEntity("test"));
}
}
target class with annotation:
public class PersistenceService {
#Autowired
TestEntityRepository testEntityRepository;
#PostConstruct
public void initialize(){
//repository.deleteAll();
testEntityRepository.save(new TestEntity("test1"));
testEntityRepository.save(new TestEntity("test2"));
testEntityRepository.save(new TestEntity("test3"));
}
}
as the result in table only one record - "test". At the Tomcat all works fine.

It seems your PersistenceServiceis not recognized as a Service. Can you add the #Service to PersistenceService?
#Service
public class PersistenceService {
...
}
Hope this help.

Since according to the docs #Component registers beans for the Spring container I'm trying to create a simple example of dependency injection using the following code:
package pl.playground;
//...
#SpringBootApplication
public class PlaygroundApplication {
#Autowired
private static Building building;
public static void main(String[] args) {
building.setBuildingSize(12L);
System.out.println(building.monthlyHeatingCost());
}
}
package pl.playground.facade;
//...
#Component
public class Building {
private HeatingService service;
private Long buildingSize;
#Autowired
public Building(HeatingService service) {
this.service = service;
}
public Double monthlyHeatingCost() {
return service.getMonthlyHeatingCost(buildingSize);
}
// getters & setters...
}
package pl.playground.service;
public interface HeatingService {
Double getMonthlyHeatingCost(Long size);
}
package pl.playground.service;
//...
#Component
public class HeatingServiceImpl implements HeatingService {
private final Double CUBIC_PRICE = 2.3;
public HeatingServiceImpl() {}
#Override
public Double getMonthlyHeatingCost(Long size) {
return size * CUBIC_PRICE;
}
}
It builds and runs, but there is a NullPointerException at building.setBuildingSize(12L);. However the one below works without any issues:
//PlaygroundApplication.java
package pl.playground;
//...
#SpringBootApplication
public class PlaygroundApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
AnnotationConfigApplicationContext context = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(Config.class);
Building building = context.getBean(Building.class);
building.setBuildingSize(12L);
System.out.println(building.monthlyHeatingCost());
}
}
package pl.playground.config;
//...
#Configuration
public class Config {
#Bean
public Building building(HeatingService service) {
return new Building(service);
}
#Bean
public HeatingServiceImpl heatingServiceImpl() {
return new HeatingServiceImpl();
}
}
The rest is the same as before.
Why is #Component not creating Beans?
It is working the way I think it should when used inside a #Controller of a web app, does that make a difference? How does exactly #Bean and #Component differ?
What am I failing to understand?
EDIT
Consider the following scenario:
package pl.playground;
//...
#SpringBootApplication
public class ExampleApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(ExampleApplication.class, args);
}
}
package pl.playground.controller;
//...
#Controller
public class Controller {
private Facade facade;
#Autowired
public Controller(Facade facade) {
this.facade = facade;
}
#GetMapping("/")
public String getIndexPage(Model model) {
return "index";
}
}
package pl.playground.facade;
//...
#Component
public class Facade {
private PostsService postService;
private UserService userService;
private TagService tagService;
#Autowired
public Facade(PostsService retrieve, UserService user, TagService tag) {
this.postService = retrieve;
this.userService = user;
this.tagService = tag;
}
//...
}
I don't need #Configuration here for it to work. That's my concern.
The problem with your code is that you are trying to #Autowire on a static field. You simply cannot do that. Look here: Can you use #Autowired with static fields?
It fails to work because the PlaygroundApplication class is not being created and managed by spring. The injection works only inside instances managed by spring. You can treat class annotated with #SpringBootApplication as configuration classes. Spring creates instances of those classes and injection works inside them but only on instance fields.
The second example shows the correct way to access spring beans from main method of the application.
Well. I used your original question and is working without any issues. #cezary-butler pointed out in the comments you can autowire into PlaygroundApplication but you can get hold of it easily in the static main method using context.getBean(Building.class)
#SpringBootApplication
public class PlaygroundApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ConfigurableApplicationContext context =
SpringApplication.run(PlaygroundApplication.class);
Building building = context.getBean(Building.class);
building.setBuildingSize(12L);
System.out.println(building.monthlyHeatingCost());
}
}
Here is the sample repo https://github.com/kavi-kanap/stackoverflow-63072236
TLDR;
A Spring context needs to be created before any bean can be injected. In the first scenario, just the fact of having a #SpringBootApplication decorator does not ensure a context in the scope of the class it decorates.
SpringApplication.run(ExampleApplication.class, args); instantiates a context (and e.g. a web server among other things)
var context = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(Config.class); instantiates a scoped context
Thus the first example had null inside of Building as there was no context with the bean to inject.
I'm trying to fetch some properties from application.properties file ad my code is the following:
Main Application class:
package it.mysite;
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableTransactionManagement
public class MailSenderApplication {
public static void main(String[] args){
ConfigurableApplicationContext context = SpringApplication.run(MailSenderApplication.class, args);
System.out.println("*****");
for (String name : context.getBeanDefinitionNames()) {
System.out.println(name);
}
System.out.println("*****");
new MySendService().sendReport();
}
}
My service class:
package it.mysite.service;
#Service
public class MySendService {
#Value("${mail.fc.to}")
private String[] to;
#Value("${mail.fc.subject}")
private String subject;
#Autowired ReportService reportEmailService;
#Autowired MailProperties mailProperties;
public void sendReport(){
if(mailProperties.getTo().length > 0) {
}
}
Class where I fetch the properties:
package it.mysite.properties;
#Component
#ConfigurationProperties("mail.fc")
public class MailProperties {
private String[] to;
public String[] getTo(){
return to;
}
}
Config file:
# Email config
mail.fc.to=my#mail.com
mail.fc.subject=My subject
All of the #Autowired properties are null, and also the #Value properties (I tried to get them in that way also). When I print my context I can see these classes in the bean list, and for what I know my packages hierarchy is correct, so what can be the problem?
EDIT
Ok, I got the suggestion from the duplicate question and I changed my main class code as follows:
Main Application class:
package it.mysite;
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableTransactionManagement
public class MailSenderApplication {
#Autowired MySendService mySendService;
public static void main(String[] args){
ConfigurableApplicationContext context = SpringApplication.run(MailSenderApplication.class, args);
System.out.println("*****");
for (String name : context.getBeanDefinitionNames()) {
System.out.println(name);
}
System.out.println("*****");
new MailSenderApplication().boot();
}
private void boot(){
mySendService.sendReport();
}
}
But I got the same error. Wasn't that the suggestion?
In normal Spring, when we want to autowire an interface, we define it's implementation in Spring context file.
What about Spring boot?
how can we achieve this?
currently we only autowire classes that are not interfaces.
Another part of this question is about using a class in a Junit class inside a Spring boot project.
If we want to use a CalendarUtil for example, if we autowire CalendarUtil, it will throw a null pointer exception. What can we do in this case? I just initialized using "new" for now...
Use #Qualifier annotation is used to differentiate beans of the same interface
Take look at Spring Boot documentation
Also, to inject all beans of the same interface, just autowire List of interface
(The same way in Spring / Spring Boot / SpringBootTest)
Example below:
#SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
}
public interface MyService {
void doWork();
}
#Service
#Qualifier("firstService")
public static class FirstServiceImpl implements MyService {
#Override
public void doWork() {
System.out.println("firstService work");
}
}
#Service
#Qualifier("secondService")
public static class SecondServiceImpl implements MyService {
#Override
public void doWork() {
System.out.println("secondService work");
}
}
#Component
public static class FirstManager {
private final MyService myService;
#Autowired // inject FirstServiceImpl
public FirstManager(#Qualifier("firstService") MyService myService) {
this.myService = myService;
}
#PostConstruct
public void startWork() {
System.out.println("firstManager start work");
myService.doWork();
}
}
#Component
public static class SecondManager {
private final List<MyService> myServices;
#Autowired // inject MyService all implementations
public SecondManager(List<MyService> myServices) {
this.myServices = myServices;
}
#PostConstruct
public void startWork() {
System.out.println("secondManager start work");
myServices.forEach(MyService::doWork);
}
}
}
For the second part of your question, take look at this useful answers first / second
You can also make it work by giving it the name of the implementation.
Eg:
#Autowired
MyService firstService;
#Autowired
MyService secondService;
Assume that you have a GreetingService
public interface GreetingService {
void doGreetings();
}
And you have 2 implementations HelloService
#Service
#Slf4j
public class HelloService implements GreetingService{
#Override
public void doGreetings() {
log.info("Hello world!");
}
}
and HiService
#Slf4j
#Service
public class HiService implements GreetingService{
#Override
public void doGreetings() {
log.info("Hi world!");
}
}
Then you have another interface, which is BusinessService to call some business
public interface BusinessService {
void doGreetings();
}
There are some ways to do that
#1. Use #Autowired
#Component
public class BusinessServiceImpl implements BusinessService{
#Autowired
private GreetingService hiService; // Spring automatically maps the name for you, if you don't want to change it.
#Autowired
private GreetingService helloService;
#Override
public void doGreetings() {
hiService.doGreetings();
helloService.doGreetings();
}
}
In case you need to change your implementation bean name, refer to other answers, by setting the name to your bean, for example #Service("myCustomName") and applying #Qualifier("myCustomName")
#2. You can also use constructor injection
#Component
public class BusinessServiceImpl implements BusinessService {
private final GreetingService hiService;
private final GreetingService helloService;
public BusinessServiceImpl(GreetingService hiService, GreetingService helloService) {
this.hiService = hiService;
this.helloService = helloService;
}
#Override
public void doGreetings() {
hiService.doGreetings();
helloService.doGreetings();
}
}
This can be
public BusinessServiceImpl(#Qualifier("hiService") GreetingService hiService, #Qualifier("helloService") GreetingService helloService)
But I am using Spring Boot 2.6.5 and
public BusinessServiceImpl(GreetingService hiService, GreetingService helloService)
is working fine, since Spring automatically get the names for us.
#3. You can also use Map for this
#Component
#RequiredArgsConstructor
public class BusinessServiceImpl implements BusinessService {
private final Map<String, GreetingService> servicesMap; // Spring automatically get the bean name as key
#Override
public void doGreetings() {
servicesMap.get("hiService").doGreetings();
servicesMap.get("helloService").doGreetings();
}
}
List also works fine if you run all the services. But there is a case that you want to get some specific implementation, you need to define a name for it or something like that. My reference is here
For this one, I use #RequiredArgsConstructor from Lombok.
As mentioned in the comments, by using the #Qualifier annotation, you can distinguish different implementations as described in the docs.
For testing, you can use also do the same. For example:
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest
public class MyClassTests {
#Autowired
private MyClass testClass;
#MockBean
#Qualifier("default")
private MyImplementation defaultImpl;
#Test
public void givenMultipleImpl_whenAutowiring_thenReturnDefaultImpl() {
// your test here....
}
}
There are 2 approaches when we have autowiring of an interface with multiple implementations:
Spring #Primary annotation
In short it tells to our Spring application whenever we try to autowire our interface to use that specific implementation which is marked with the #Primary annotation. It is like a default autowiring setting. It can be used only once per cluster of implementations of an interface. → #Primary Docs
Spring #Qualifier annotation
This Spring annotation is giving us more control to select the exact implementation wherever we define a reference to our interface choosing among its options. → #Qualifier Docs
For more details follow the links to their documentation.
public interface SomeInterfaces {
void send(String message);
String getType();
}
kafka-service
#Component
public class SomeInterfacesKafkaImpl implements SomeInterfaces {
private final String type = "kafka";
#Override
public void send(String message) {
System.out.println(message + "through Kafka");
}
#Override
public String getType() {
return this.type;
}
}
redis-service
#Component
public class SomeInterfacesRedisImpl implements SomeInterfaces {
private final String type = "redis";
#Override
public void send(String message) {
System.out.println(message + "through Redis");
}
#Override
public String getType() {
return this.type;
}
}
master
#Component
public class SomeInterfacesMaster {
private final Set<SomeInterfaces> someInterfaces;
public SomeInterfacesMaster(Set<SomeInterfaces> someInterfaces) {
this.someInterfaces = someInterfaces;
}
public void sendMaster(String type){
Optional<SomeInterfaces> service =
someInterfaces
.stream()
.filter(service ->
service.getType().equals(type)
)
.findFirst();
SomeInterfaces someService =
service
.orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException("There is not such way for sending messages."));
someService .send(" Hello. It is a letter to ....");
}
}
test
#SpringBootTest
public class MultiImplementation {
}
#TestInstance(TestInstance.Lifecycle.PER_CLASS)
class SomeInterfacesMasterTest extends MultiImplementation {
#Autowired
private SomeInterfacesMaster someInterfacesMaster;
#Test
void sendMaster() {
someInterfacesMaster.sendMaster("kafka");
}
}
Thus, according to the Open/Closed principle, we only need to add an implementation without breaking existing code.
#Component
public class SomeInterfacesRabbitImpl implements SomeInterfaces {
private final String type = "rabbit";
#Override
public void send(String message) {
System.out.println(message + "through Rabbit");
}
#Override
public String getType() {
return this.type;
}
}
test-v2
#TestInstance(TestInstance.Lifecycle.PER_CLASS)
class SomeInterfacesMasterTestV2 extends MultiImplementation {
#Autowired
private SomeInterfacesMaster someInterfacesMaster;
#Test
void sendMasterV2() {
someInterfacesMaster.sendMaster("rabbit");
}
}
If we have multiple implementations of the same interface, Spring needs to know which one it should be autowired into a class. Here is a simple example of validator for mobile number and email address of Employee:-
Employee Class:
public class Employee {
private String mobileNumber;
private String emailAddress;
...
/** Getters & Setters omitted **/
}
Interface EmployeeValidator:
public interface EmployeeValidator {
public Employee validate(Employee employee);
}
First implementation class for Mobile Number Validator:
#Component(value="EmployeeMobileValidator")
public class EmployeeMobileValidator implements EmployeeValidator {
#Override
public Employee validate(Employee employee) {
//Mobile number Validation logic goes here.
}
}
Second implementation class for Email address Validator:
#Component(value="EmployeeEmailValidator")
public class EmployeeEmailValidator implements EmployeeValidator {
#Override
public Employee validate(Employee employee) {
//Email address validation logic goes here.
}
}
We can now autowired these above validators individually into a class.
Employee Service Interface:
public interface EmployeeService {
public void handleEmployee(Employee employee);
}
Employee Service Implementation Class
#Service
public class EmployeeServiceImpl implements EmployeeService {
/** Autowire validators individually **/
#Autowired
#Qualifier("EmployeeMobileValidator") // Autowired using qualifier for mobile validator
private EmployeeValidator mobileValidator;
#Autowired
#Qualifier("EmployeeEmailValidator") // Autowired using qualifier for email valodator
private EmployeeValidator emailValidator;
#Override
public void handleEmployee(Employee employee) {
/**You can use just one instance if you need**/
employee = mobileValidator.validate(employee);
}
}
I am using spring boot 1.4,
when using the #SpringBootTest annotation for integration test, it gives a null pointer.
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class);
#SpringBootTest
public class MyControllerTest {
#Test
public void mytest {
when().
get("/hello").
then().
body("hello");
}
}
and for main class:
#SpringApplication
#EnableCaching
#EnableAsync
public class HelloApp extends AsyncConfigureSupport {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(HelloApp.class, args);
}
#Override
public Executor getAsyncExecutor() {
...
}
}
Then in my controller:
#RestController
public class HelloController {
#Autowired
private HelloService helloService;
#RequestMapping("/hello");
public String hello() {
return helloService.sayHello();
}
}
HelloService
#Service
public class HelloService {
public String sayHello() {
return "hello";
}
}
But it ways says NullPointException when for helloService when processing request.
What am I missing?
You need to mock HelloService in your test class as your controller is calling a service .Here in your case Your Test class is not aware that there is any service available or not
The following example test class might help you. In this guide from spring an example is shown how to integration test a rest controller in a spring fashion way.
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest
#WebAppConfiguration
public class HelloControllerTest {
private MockMvc mockMvc;
#Autowired
private WebApplicationContext webApplicationContext;
#Before
public void setUp() {
this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(webApplicationContext).build();
}
#Test
public void hello() throws Exception {
mockMvc.perform(get("/hello")).andExpect(content().string("hello"));
}
}
I'm trying to figure out how to build a Spring Boot standalone app. Of course to have things autowired requires some initial context starting point. If I just try to Autowire a class to run a job it is null even if I make it static.
Is there a way to use Spring #Services in a standalone non-web app?
#SpringBootApplication
public class MyApplication {
#Autowired
private static JobRunnerService job;
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(MyApplication.class, args);
job.send(); //job is null !
}
}
So first wired in a static JobRunnerService to the main running MyApplication the JobRunner(Service) Class has a non-static SshSessionService wired into it.
the SshSession(Service) finally just has a no-arg constructor.
#Service("jobRunnerService")
public final class JobRunner implements JobRunnerService{
#Autowired
private SshSessionService ssh;
#Autowired
public JobRunner(SshSessionService ssh){
this.ssh = ssh;
}
public void sendToAgent() { ....
}
#Service("sshSessionService")
public class SshSession implements SshSessionService {
public SshSession() {
}
}
It starts off being null at the JobRunnerService job reference.
Several different solutions comes to mind:
If you take a look at the SpringApplication.run() method you will notice that it returns a ApplicationContext. From that, you can fetch the JobRunnerService, e.g.
#SpringBootApplication
public class MyApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ApplicationContext ctx = SpringApplication.run(MyApplication.class, args);
JobRunnerService job = ctx.getBean(JobRunnerService.class);
job.send();
}
}
Another solution is to use #PostConstruct annotation for the send() method:
#Service("jobRunnerService")
public class JobRunner implements JobRunnerService {
#PostConstruct
public void send() { ... }
}
However in your case, I would implement the ApplicationRunner interface, either as a separate bean which autowires the JobRunnerService and then calls its send() method
#Component
public class SendRunner implements ApplicationRunner {
#Autowired
private JobRunnerService job;
#Override
public void run(ApplicationArguments args) {
job.send();
}
}
or let the JobRunner implement the ApplicationRunner interface directly:
#Service("jobRunnerService")
public class JobRunner implements JobRunnerService, ApplicationRunner {
#Override
public void send() { ... }
#Override
public void run(ApplicationArguments args) {
send();
}
}
You haven't provided the code for JobRunnerService but I am assuming it has a default constructor and that it is annotated by #Component for Spring to figure it out as a bean before you can actually autowire it. your job is null probably because it's not able to find an autowired bean for JobRunnerService and that's probably because you don't have an identifier for Spring to scan and create bean of type JobRunnerService
You can use #Servicesor #Component to the JobRunnerService class then add annotation #ComponentScan("package of JobRunnerService") below #SpringBootApplication, see this link:
How to scan multiple paths using the #ComponentScan annotation?
You need a few steps to get your standalone app working:
A class with main() method.
A #SpringBootApplication annotation to your main class.
And a call to the SpringApplication.run() method.
package com.example.myproject;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
#SpringBootApplication // same as #Configuration #EnableAutoConfiguration #ComponentScan
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}
}
As noted, the #SpringBootApplication is a composite annotation which consist of #Configuration #EnableAutoConfiguration and #ComponentScan. In other words, it can be replaced by the three latter annotations. Alternatively, you can use the alias scanBasePackage or scanBasePackageClasses to customize which directories that should be used for component scanning.
The example is copied from the #SpringBootApplication paragraph in the Spring Boot reference docs (see link above). If you would like to quick start your project, complete with build scripts (Maven or Gradle), dependencies, etc, you can generate a project skeleton using the Spring Initializr
I'm trying to run as Thread/runnable now as mentioned in the Spring document 3. Task Execution and Scheduling..
import org.springframework.core.task.TaskExecutor;
public class TaskExecutorExample {
private class MessagePrinterTask implements Runnable {
private String message;
public MessagePrinterTask(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public void run() {
System.out.println(message);
}
}
private TaskExecutor taskExecutor;
public TaskExecutorExample(TaskExecutor taskExecutor) {
this.taskExecutor = taskExecutor;
}
public void printMessages() {
for(int i = 0; i < 25; i++) {
taskExecutor.execute(new MessagePrinterTask("Message" + i));
}
}
}
So in my case I'm trying...
#Service("jobRunnerService")
#Component
public class JobRunner implements JobRunnerService, ApplicationRunner{
#Autowired
public TaskExecutor taskExecutor;
#Autowired
private SshSessionService ssh;
private class JobTask implements Runnable{
public void run(){
Boolean success = connectToAgent();
if(success){
log.debug("CONNECTED!!!");
}
}
}
/**
* Construct JobRunner with TaskExecutor
* #param taskExecutor
*/
#Autowired
public JobRunner(TaskExecutor taskExecutor, SshSessionService ssh) {
this.taskExecutor = taskExecutor;
this.ssh = ssh;
}
private Map<String, String> sessionParams;
private final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(this.getClass());
#Override
public void run(ApplicationArguments args) {
/**
* Starting point of application
*
*/
taskExecutor.execute(new JobTask());
}
just getting org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.core.task.TaskExecutor] found for dependency
How can i get the imported lib to be accepted as a TaskExecutor Bean ??
