spring batch with annotations - spring

Question

I'm currently trying to create a batch with the spring annotations but the batch is never called. No error occurs, my batch isn't called. Its a simple batch that retrieves values from the database and add messages in a queue (rabbitmq).
The main configuration class:
#Configuration
#EnableBatchProcessing
public class BatchInfrastructureConfiguration {
#Bean
public JobLauncher getJobLauncher() throws Exception {
SimpleJobLauncher jobLauncher = new SimpleJobLauncher();
jobLauncher.setJobRepository(getJobRepository());
jobLauncher.afterPropertiesSet();
return jobLauncher;
}
public JobRepository getJobRepository() throws Exception {
MapJobRepositoryFactoryBean factory = new MapJobRepositoryFactoryBean();
factory.setTransactionManager(new ResourcelessTransactionManager());
factory.afterPropertiesSet();
return (JobRepository) factory.getObject();
}
}
The configuration class specific to my batch
#Configuration
#Import(BatchInfrastructureConfiguration.class)
public class PurchaseStatusBatchConfiguration {
#Inject
private JobBuilderFactory jobBuilders;
#Inject
private StepBuilderFactory stepBuilders;
#Bean
public Job purchaseStatusJob(){
return jobBuilders.get("purchaseStatusJob")
.start(step())
.build();
}
#Bean
public Step step(){
return stepBuilders.get("purchaseStatusStep")
.tasklet(new PurchaseStatusBatch())
.build();
}
}
The batch class:
public class PurchaseStatusBatch implements Tasklet {
#Inject
private PurchaseRepository purchaseRepository;
#Inject
#Qualifier(ApplicationConst.BEAN_QUALIFIER_PURCHASE_QUEUE)
private RabbitTemplate rabbitTemplate;
#Override
public RepeatStatus execute(StepContribution contribution, ChunkContext chunkContext) throws Exception {
PurchaseDto purchaseDto;
PurchaseMessage purchaseMessage;
List<Purchase> notVerifiedPurchase = purchaseRepository.findByVerified(false);
for (Purchase purchase : notVerifiedPurchase) {
purchaseDto = new PurchaseDto();
purchaseDto.setOrderId(purchase.getOrderId());
purchaseDto.setProductId(purchase.getProductId());
purchaseDto.setPurchaseToken(purchase.getPurchaseToken());
purchaseDto.setUserScrapbookKey(purchase.getUserScrapbookKey());
purchaseMessage = new PurchaseMessage();
purchaseMessage.setPurchaseDto(purchaseDto);
rabbitTemplate.convertAndSend(purchaseMessage);
}
return null;
}
}
The job runner (class calling the batch):
#Service
public class PurchaseStatusJobRunner {
#Inject
private JobLocator jobLocator;
#Inject
private JobLauncher jobLauncher;
//#Scheduled(fixedDelay = 3000L)
//#Scheduled(cron="* * * * *") // every 1 minute
#Scheduled(fixedDelay = 3000L)
public void runJob() throws JobExecutionAlreadyRunningException, JobRestartException, JobInstanceAlreadyCompleteException, JobParametersInvalidException, NoSuchJobException {
jobLauncher.run(jobLocator.getJob("purchaseStatusJob"), new JobParameters());
}
}

Short answer: The problem is that your PurchaseStatusBatch instance is not a spring bean... then all its attributes are null (they have not been injected)
Try this :
#Bean
public Step step(){
return stepBuilders.get("purchaseStatusStep")
.tasklet(purchaseStatusBatch())
.build();
}
#Bean
public PurchaseStatusBatch purchaseStatusBatch() {
return new PurchaseStatusBatch()
}
When you want to have feedback on your job execution, just use the JobExecution instance returned by the JobLauncher. You can get the ExitStatus, you can get all exceptions catched by the JobLauncher, and more information.
Another solution to have feedback would be providing a real database to your JobRepository, and then check execution statuses in it.
