I've got something like this in my controller:
#RequestMapping
#ResponseBody
public HttpEntity<PagedResources<PromotionResource>> promotions(
#PageableDefault(size = RestAPIConfig.DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE, page = 0) Pageable pageable,
PagedResourcesAssembler<Promotion> assembler
){
PagedResources<PromotionResource> r = assembler.toResource(this.promoService.find(pageable), this.promoAssembler);
return new ResponseEntity<PagedResources<PromotionResource>>(r, HttpStatus.OK);
}
If i navigate to the URL mapped to that controller method i get a 500 error with a root cause of:
com.sun.istack.internal.SAXException2: unable to marshal type "commerce.api.rest.resources.PromotionResource " as an element because it is missing an #XmlRootElement annotation
If i throw a #XmlRootElement annotation on my resource it becomes this error:
com.sun.istack.internal.SAXException2: unable to marshal type "commerce.api.rest.resources.PromotionResource " as an element because it is not known to this context.
Everything is fine if the accept header is application/json or application/hal+json. The problem is caused only when the client (in this case chrome) is looking for application/xml (which makes sense as HATEOAS is following the clients requests. I'm using spring boot's #EnableAutoConfiguration which is adding the XML message converter to the list and thus enabling XML content types.
I'm guessing i have at least 2 options:
1. fix the jaxb error
2. remove xml as a supported content type
not sure how to do either, or maybe there's another option.
If you don't actually want to produce XML try using the produces attribute of the #RequestMapping annotation. Something like: #RequestMapping(produces=MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
Alternatively you could exclude jaxb from you classpath or look at adding your own org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.HttpMessageConverters bean to take complete control of the registered HttpMessageConverter's. See WebMvcConfigurationSupport.addDefaultHttpMessageConverters to see what Spring will add by default.
Not sure this is a good technique, and it looks like in 1.1.6 there's a different approach. Here's what i did:
#Configuration
public class WebMVCConfig extends WebMvcAutoConfiguration.WebMvcAutoConfigurationAdapter {
#Override
public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
//Remove the Jaxb2 that is automatically added because some other dependency brings it into the classpath
List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> baseConverters = new ArrayList<HttpMessageConverter<?>>();
super.configureMessageConverters(baseConverters);
for(HttpMessageConverter<?> c : baseConverters){
if(!(c instanceof Jaxb2RootElementHttpMessageConverter)){
converters.add(c);
}
}
}
}
if you don't want to support XML converter, you can extend spring WebMvcConfigurer to exclude XML message converters.
#Configuration
public class WebMVCConfig extends WebMvcAutoConfiguration.WebMvcAutoConfigurationAdapter {
#Override
public void extendMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
converters.removeIf(c -> c instanceof AbstractXmlHttpMessageConverter<?>);
}
}

I am using Spring 4.3.1 and Hibernate 5.1.0 for my webapp.
For Jackson to be able serializing lazy objects I have to add the Hibernate5Module to my default ObjectMapper. This I have done via
#EnableWebMvc
#Configuration
#ComponentScan({ "xxx.controller" })
public class SpringWebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
#Autowired
SessionFactory sf;
...
#Override
public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
Hibernate5Module module = new Hibernate5Module(sf);
module.disable(Feature.USE_TRANSIENT_ANNOTATION);
module.enable(Feature.FORCE_LAZY_LOADING);
Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder builder = new Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder();
builder.modulesToInstall(module);
converters.add(new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter(builder.build()));
super.configureMessageConverters(converters);
}
}
This is working but if it is enabled serializing a byte[] does not work anymore and fails with HTTP Status 500 - Could not write content: No serializer found for class java.io.BufferedInputStream
So my question is how to extend the default ObjectMapper while preserving the default ones?
I have seen somthing preserving the defaults using Spring Boot but I do not use Spring Boot. Any ideas?
As specified in the WebMvcConfigurer.configureMessageConverters javadoc, "If no converters are added, a default list of converters is registered", i.e. you will have to manually add all the default converters if you are using WebMvcConfigurer. Calling 'super.configureMessageConverters(converters)' does nothing if you extend WebMvcConfigurer. Take a look in 'WebMvcConfigurationSupport.addDefaultHttpMessageConverters(...)' to see all the default message converters, you can also extend this class instead of WebMvcConfigurer, with which you get slightly more clarity what happens.
I have a Spring Boot app with a REST API, using Jackson for the JSON view configuration. It works great and I can get all the Spring Boot goodness.
However, I need to add an additional REST API that is similar but with different settings. For example, among other things, it needs a different Jackson object mapper configuration because the JSON will look quite a bit different (e.g. no JSON arrays). That is just one example but there are quite a few differences. Each API has a different context (e.g. /api/current and /api/legacy).
Ideally I'd like two MVC configs mapped to these different contexts, and not have to give up any of the automatic wiring of things in boot.
So far all I've been able to get close on is using two dispatcher servlets each with its own MVC config, but that results in Boot dropping a whole bunch of things I get automatically and basically defeats the reason for using boot.
I cannot break the app up into multiple apps.
The answer "you cannot do this with Boot and still get all its magic" is an acceptable answer. Seems like it should be able to handle this though.
There's several ways to achieve this. Based on your requirement , Id say this is a case of managing REST API versions.
There's several ways to version the REST API, some the popular ones being version urls and other techniques mentioned in the links of the comments.
The URL Based approach is more driven towards having multiple versions of the address:
For example
For V1 :
/path/v1/resource
and V2 :
/path/v2/resource
These will resolve to 2 different methods in the Spring MVC Controller bean, to which the calls get delegated.
The other option to resolve the versions of the API is to use the headers, this way there is only URL, multiple methods based on the version.
For example:
/path/resource
HEADER:
X-API-Version: 1.0
HEADER:
X-API-Version: 2.0
This will also resolve in two separate operations on the controller.
Now these are the strategies based on which multiple rest versions can be handled.
The above approaches are explained well in the following: git example
Note: The above is a spring boot application.
The commonality in both these approaches is that there will need to be different POJOS based on which Jackson JSON library to automatically marshal instances of the specified type into JSON.
I.e. Assuming that the code uses the #RestController [org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController]
Now if your requirement is to have different JSON Mapper i.e. different JSON mapper configurations, then irrespective of the Spring contexts you'll need a different strategy for the serialization/De-Serialization.
In this case, you will need to implement a Custom De-Serializer {CustomDeSerializer} that will extend JsonDeserializer<T> [com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonDeserializer] and in the deserialize() implement your custom startegy.
Use the #JsonDeserialize(using = CustomDeSerializer.class) annotation on the target POJO.
This way multiple JSON schemes can be managed with different De-Serializers.
By Combining Rest Versioning + Custom Serialization Strategy , each API can be managed in it's own context without having to wire multiple dispatcher Servlet configurations.
Expanding on my comment of yesterday and #Ashoka Header idea i would propose to register 2 MessageConverters (legacy and current) for custom media types. You can do this like that:
#Bean
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter currentMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter() {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter jsonConverter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
// set features
jsonConverter.setObjectMapper(objectMapper);
jsonConverter.setSupportedMediaTypes(Arrays.asList(new MediaType("json", "v2")));
return jsonConverter;
}
#Bean
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter legacyMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter() {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter jsonConverter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
// set features
jsonConverter.setObjectMapper(objectMapper);
return jsonConverter;
}
Pay attention to the custom media-type for one of the converters.
If you like , you can use an Interceptor to rewrite the Version-Headers proposed by #Ashoka to a custom Media-Type like so:
public class ApiVersionMediaTypeMappingInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter {
#Override
public boolean preHandle(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response, Object handler) throws Exception {
try {
if(request.getHeader("X-API-Version") == "2") {
request.setAttribute("Accept:","json/v2");
}
.....
}
}
This might not be the exact answer you were looking for, but maybe it can provide some inspiration. An interceptor is registered like so.
If you can live with a different port for each context, then you only have to overwrite the DispatcherServletAutoConfiguration beans. All the rest of the magic works, multpart, Jackson etc. You can configure the Servlet and Jackson/Multipart etc. for each child-context separately and inject bean of the parent context.

The context1/2.properties files currently only contain a server.port=8080/8081 but you can set all the other spring properties for the child contexts there.
In Spring-boot ypu can use different profiles (like dev and test).
Start application with
-Dspring.profiles.active=dev
or -Dspring.profiles.active=test
and use different properties files named application-dev.properties or application-test.properties inside your properties directory.
That could do the problem.
Back-end, Spring boot project(v1.3.0.RELEASE), supply Rest JSON Api to fron-end, just now encountered an error:
Infinite recursion (StackOverflowError)
I decide to change to a custom FastJsonHttpMessageConverter, and code is below
#Bean
public HttpMessageConverter httpMessageConverter() {
FastJsonHttpMessageConverter fastJsonHttpMessageConverter = new FastJsonHttpMessageConverter();
return fastJsonHttpMessageConverter;
}
but it does not work, in real it uses a default HttpMessageConverter. Although does not have above error, the output is not as I expected. e.g.
suppliers: [
{
$ref: "$.value"
}
]
Now change above code
#Bean
public HttpMessageConverter mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter() {
FastJsonHttpMessageConverter fastJsonHttpMessageConverter = new FastJsonHttpMessageConverter();
return fastJsonHttpMessageConverter;
}
This time it works, I want to know why the method name have to be mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter? If use another method name how to configure it?
After seeing this offical document, I know how to customize converters.
#Bean
public HttpMessageConverters customConverters() {
HttpMessageConverter<?> additional = new FastJsonHttpMessageConverter();
return new HttpMessageConverters(additional);
}
A Revise to my main post, actually below code does not work.
#Bean
public HttpMessageConverter mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter() {
FastJsonHttpMessageConverter fastJsonHttpMessageConverter = new FastJsonHttpMessageConverter();
return fastJsonHttpMessageConverter;
}
Spring boot never enter this method if you set breakpoint inside it.
And below code also works.
#SpringBootApplication
public class FooApplication extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(FooApplication.class, args);
}
#Override
public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
super.configureMessageConverters(converters);
converters.add(new FastJsonHttpMessageConverter());
}
}
Spring boot says (https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-spring-mvc.html#howto-customize-the-responsebody-rendering):
If a bean you add is of a type that would have been included by default anyway (like MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter for JSON conversions) then it will replace the default value.
The bean you are adding is not of the same type, so the above does not happen. Your converter goes somewhere in the list of converters (probably the end), and the first suitable converter (the old one) does the job.
Beans produced by the Java configuration have the name of the method, so when you create a second bean named mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter, it overrides the one created by spring boot's JacksonHttpMessageConvertersConfiguration and takes it place.
Instead of adding a converter bean, you might prefer to override the whole list of converters:
As in normal MVC usage, any WebMvcConfigurerAdapter beans that you provide can also contribute converters by overriding the configureMessageConverters method,
I'm writing an API using Java EE, JAX-RS, Jersey. In doing this I've implemented my own security context and security filter.
Looking at questions like this one (How to get MIME type of uploaded file in Jersey) I've seen the #Secure annotation but what does it do? My hope was that is was an annotation that queries the isSecure method of the security context in the same way that #RolesAllowed does for checking if a user has the right to access a particular method. If so is there such a way of doing so with annotations or am I stuck to using the #Context to get the security context and just from that.
The #Secure annotation seems to be a custom one. JAX-RS/Jersey does not support such feature out-of-the-box but it's not that hard to implement. Lets say you have your own #Secure annotation and you want to do checks whether a communication channel is secure for methods annotated with this annotation. You need to create a custom ResourceFilterFactory in which you'll assign a special filter for such methods:
public class IsSecureResourceFilterFactory implements ResourceFilterFactory {
private class IsSecureFilter implements ResourceFilter, ContainerRequestFilter {
// ResourceFilter
#Override
public ContainerRequestFilter getRequestFilter() {
return this;
}
#Override
public ContainerResponseFilter getResponseFilter() {
return null;
}
// ContainerRequestFilter
#Override
public ContainerRequest filter(final ContainerRequest request) {
// Check whether the channel is secure.
if (request.isSecure()) {
return request;
}
// Throw an exception if it's not.
throw new WebApplicationException(Response.Status.FORBIDDEN);
}
}
#Override
public List<ResourceFilter> create(final AbstractMethod abstractMethod) {
// Add IsSecureFilter for resource methods annotated with #Secure annotation (ignore other resource methods).
return abstractMethod.isAnnotationPresent(Secure.class)
? Collections.<ResourceFilter>singletonList(new IsSecureFilter()): null;
}
}
Now you need to tell Jersey about this ResourceFilterFactory. There are 2 ways:
via web.xml
<init-param>
<param-name>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ResourceFilters</param-name>
<param-value>my.package.IsSecureResourceFilterFactory</param-value>
</init-param>
or via META-INF/services mechanism - you need to create a file called META-INF/services/com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ResourceFilterFactory which would contain a fully qualified name of your factory (in this case my.package.IsSecureResourceFilterFactory) and make sure this file is on the class-path of your application.
i am working on BIRT reporting tool. which is need to called by spring MVC.
i got one example from spring which is here. in this example, configuration is done via bean. can anyone help me convert this configuration in to xml based configuration ?
#EnableWebMvc
#ComponentScan({ "org.eclipse.birt.spring.core","org.eclipse.birt.spring.example" })
#Configuration
public class BirtWebConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
public void addViewControllers(ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
registry.addViewController("/reports").setViewName("birtView");
}
#Bean
public BirtView birtView() {
BirtView bv = new BirtView();
// bv.setReportFormatRequestParameter("ReportFormat");
// bv.setReportNameRequestParameter("ReportName");
bv.setBirtEngine(this.engine().getObject());
return bv;
}
#Bean
public BeanNameViewResolver beanNameResolver() {
BeanNameViewResolver br = new BeanNameViewResolver();
return br;
}
#Bean
protected BirtEngineFactory engine() {
BirtEngineFactory factory = new BirtEngineFactory();
return factory;
}
}
I wants a similar configuration in xml file.
There's really no tool for extracting Spring annotations to Spring bean context xml file. You'll have to do it by hand, shouldn't be too hard as all the Spring annotations functionality can be duplicated into Spring context xml tags.
if you want to use spingmvc, so no need the configuration files.
my solution is that in Birt Script i call the impl java file like this :
sampleService = new Packages.com.example.warlock.service.SampleServiceImpl();
pojo = new Packages.com.example.warlock.entity.Sample();
iterator = sampleService.getSamples().iterator();
because my SampleService is a interface and SampleServiceImpl is impl java, the two java file are not config as #Bean.
