How to make following to work:
- a spring bean that has a method that should be cached with #Cacheable annotation
- another spring bean that creates keys for the cache (KeyCreatorBean).
So the code looks something like this.
#Inject
private KeyCreatorBean keyCreatorBean;
#Cacheable(value = "cacheName", key = "{#keyCreatorBean.createKey, #p0}")
#Override
public List<Examples> getExamples(ExampleId exampleId) {
...
However the above code doesn't work: it gives following exception:
Caused by: org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelEvaluationException:
EL1057E:(pos 2): No bean resolver registered in the context to resolve access to bean 'keyCreatorBean'
I checked the underlying cache resolution implementation, there doesn't appear to be a simple way to inject in a BeanResolver which is required for resolving the beans and evaluating expressions like #beanname.method.
So I would also recommend a somewhat hacky way along the lines of one which #micfra has recommended.
Along what he has said, have a KeyCreatorBean along these lines, but internally delegate it to the keycreatorBean that you registered in your application:
package pkg.beans;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
public class KeyCreatorBean implements ApplicationContextAware{
private static ApplicationContext aCtx;
public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext aCtx){
KeyCreatorBean.aCtx = aCtx;
}
public static Object createKey(Object target, Method method, Object... params) {
//store the bean somewhere..showing it like this purely to demonstrate..
return aCtx.getBean("keyCreatorBean").createKey(target, method, params);
}
}
In the case you have a static class function, it will work like this
#Cacheable(value = "cacheName", key = "T(pkg.beans.KeyCreatorBean).createKey(#p0)")
#Override
public List<Examples> getExamples(ExampleId exampleId) {
...
}
with
package pkg.beans;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
public class KeyCreatorBean {
public static Object createKey(Object o) {
return Integer.valueOf((o != null) ? o.hashCode() : 53);
}
}

I'm a Spring rookie and trying to benefit from the advantages of the easy 'profile' handling of Spring. I already worked through this tutorial: https://spring.io/blog/2011/02/14/spring-3-1-m1-introducing-profile and now I'd like to adapt that concept to an easy example.
I've got two profiles: dev and prod. I imagine a #Configuration class for each profile where I can instantiate different beans (implementing a common interface respectively) depending on the set profile.
My currently used classes look like this:
StatusController.java
#RestController
#RequestMapping("/status")
public class StatusController {
private final EnvironmentAwareBean environmentBean;
#Autowired
public StatusController(EnvironmentAwareBean environmentBean) {
this.environmentBean = environmentBean;
}
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
Status getStatus() {
Status status = new Status();
status.setExtra("environmentBean=" + environmentBean.getString());
return status;
}
}
EnvironmentAwareBean.java
public interface EnvironmentAwareBean {
String getString();
}
EnvironmentAwareBean.java
#Service
public class DevBean implements EnvironmentAwareBean {
#Override
public String getString() {
return "development";
}
}
EnvironmentAwareBean.java
#Service
public class ProdBean implements EnvironmentAwareBean {
#Override
public String getString() {
return "production";
}
}
DevConfig.java
#Configuration
#Profile("dev")
public class DevConfig {
#Bean
public EnvironmentAwareBean getDevBean() {
return new DevBean();
}
}
ProdConfig.java
#Configuration
#Profile("prod")
public class ProdConfig {
#Bean
public EnvironmentAwareBean getProdBean() {
return new ProdBean();
}
}
Running the example throws this exception during startup (SPRING_PROFILES_DEFAULT is set to dev):
(...) UnsatisfiedDependencyException: (...) nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoUniqueBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [EnvironmentAwareBean] is defined: expected single matching bean but found 3: prodBean,devBean,getDevBean
Is my approach far from a recommended configuration? In my opinion it would make more sense to annotate each Configuration with the #Profile annotation instead of doing it for each and every bean and possibly forgetting some variants when new classes are added later on.
Your implementations of EnvironmentAwareBean are all annotated with #Service.
This means they will all be picked up by component scanning and hence you get more than one matching bean. Do they need to be annotated with #Service?
Annotating each #Configuration with the #Profile annotation is fine. Another way as an educational exercise would be to not use #Profile and instead annotate the #Bean or Config classes with your own implementation of #Conditional.
I need to inject a spring service class in the generated mapper implementation, so that I can use it via
#Mapping(target="x", expression="java(myservice.findById(id))")"
Is this applicable in Mapstruct-1.0?
As commented by brettanomyces, the service won't be injected if it is not used in mapping operations other than expressions.
The only way I found to this is :
Transform my mapper interface into an abstract class
Inject the service in the abstract class
Make it protected so the "implementation" of the abstract class has access
I'm using CDI but it should be the samel with Spring :
#Mapper(
unmappedTargetPolicy = org.mapstruct.ReportingPolicy.IGNORE,
componentModel = "spring",
uses = {
// My other mappers...
})
public abstract class MyMapper {
#Autowired
protected MyService myService;
#Mappings({
#Mapping(target="x", expression="java(myservice.findById(obj.getId())))")
})
public abstract Dto myMappingMethod(Object obj);
}
It should be possible if you declare Spring as the component model and add a reference to the type of myservice:
#Mapper(componentModel="spring", uses=MyService.class)
public interface MyMapper { ... }
That mechanism is meant for providing access to other mapping methods to be called by generated code, but you should be able to use them in the expression that way, too. Just make sure you use the correct name of the generated field with the service reference.
Since 1.2 this can be solved with a combination of #AfterMapping and #Context.. Like this:
#Mapper(componentModel="spring")
public interface MyMapper {
#Mapping(target="x",ignore = true)
// other mappings
Target map( Source source, #Context MyService service);
#AfterMapping
default void map( #MappingTarget Target.X target, Source.ID source, #Context MyService service) {
target.set( service.findById( source.getId() ) );
}
}
The service can be passed as context.
A nicer solution would be to use an #Context class which wrap MyService in stead of passing MyService directly. An #AfterMapping method can be implemented on this "context" class: void map( #MappingTarget Target.X target, Source.ID source ) keeping the mapping logic clear of lookup logic. Checkout this example in the MapStruct example repository.
What's worth to add in addition to the answers above is that there is more clean way to use spring service in mapstruct mapper, that fits more into "separation of concerns" design concept, called "qualifier". Easy re-usability in other mappers as a bonus.
For sake of simplicity I prefer named qualifier as noted here http://mapstruct.org/documentation/stable/reference/html/#selection-based-on-qualifiers
Example would be:
import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.Named;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
#Component
#Mapper
public class EventTimeQualifier {
private EventTimeFactory eventTimeFactory; // ---> this is the service you want yo use
public EventTimeQualifier(EventTimeFactory eventTimeFactory) {
this.eventTimeFactory = eventTimeFactory;
}
#Named("stringToEventTime")
public EventTime stringToEventTime(String time) {
return eventTimeFactory.fromString(time);
}
}
This is how you use it in your mapper:
import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.Mapping;
#Mapper(componentModel = "spring", uses = EventTimeQualifier.class)
public interface EventMapper {
#Mapping(source = "checkpointTime", target = "eventTime", qualifiedByName = "stringToEventTime")
Event map(EventDTO eventDTO);
}
I am using Mapstruct 1.3.1 and I have found this problem is easy to solve using a decorator.
Example:
#Mapper(unmappedTargetPolicy = org.mapstruct.ReportingPolicy.IGNORE,
componentModel = "spring")
#DecoratedWith(FooMapperDecorator.class)
public interface FooMapper {
FooDTO map(Foo foo);
}
public abstract class FooMapperDecorator implements FooMapper{
#Autowired
#Qualifier("delegate")
private FooMapper delegate;
#Autowired
private MyBean myBean;
#Override
public FooDTO map(Foo foo) {
FooDTO fooDTO = delegate.map(foo);
fooDTO.setBar(myBean.getBar(foo.getBarId());
return fooDTO;
}
}
Mapstruct will generate 2 classes and mark the FooMapper that extends FooMapperDecorator as the #Primary bean.
I can't use componentModel="spring" because I work in a large project that doesn't use it. Many mappers includes my mapper with Mappers.getMapper(FamilyBasePersonMapper.class), this instance is not the Spring bean and the #Autowired field in my mapper is null.
I can't modifiy all mappers that use my mapper. And I can't use particular constructor with the injections or the Spring's #Autowired dependency injection.
The solution that I found: Using a Spring bean instance without using Spring directly:
Here is the Spring Component that regist itself first instance (the Spring instance):
#Component
#Mapper
public class PermamentAddressMapper {
#Autowired
private TypeAddressRepository typeRepository;
#Autowired
private PersonAddressRepository personAddressRepository;
static protected PermamentAddressMapper FIRST_INSTANCE;
public PermamentAddressMapper() {
if(FIRST_INSTANCE == null) {
FIRST_INSTANCE = this;
}
}
public static PermamentAddressMapper getFirstInstance(){
return FIRST_INSTANCE;
}
public static AddressDTO idPersonToPermamentAddress(Integer idPerson) {
//...
}
//...
}
Here is the Mapper that use the Spring Bean accross getFirstInstance method:
#Mapper(uses = { NationalityMapper.class, CountryMapper.class, DocumentTypeMapper.class })
public interface FamilyBasePersonMapper {
static FamilyBasePersonMapper INSTANCE = Mappers.getMapper(FamilyBasePersonMapper.class);
#Named("idPersonToPermamentAddress")
default AddressDTO idPersonToPermamentAddress(Integer idPerson) {
return PermamentAddressMapper.getFirstInstance()
.idPersonToPermamentAddress(idPersona);
}
#Mapping(
source = "idPerson",
target="permamentAddres",
qualifiedByName="idPersonToPermamentAddress" )
#Mapping(
source = "idPerson",
target = "idPerson")
FamilyDTO toFamily(PersonBase person);
//...
Maybe this is not the best solution. But it has helped to decrement the impact of changes in the final resolution.
I'm developing a Spring Boot application and am trying out using Java annotation-based bean creation (using #Configuration and #Bean) rather than the familiar old XML-based bean creation. I'm puzzled though. If I attempt to create a bean in XML but fail to set an #Required property I get a BeanInitializationException when the application context is created. In my trials so far with annotation-based bean creation though this does not seem to be the case.
For example:
public class MyClass {
...
#Required
public void setSomeProp(String val){
}
}
Then in Spring XML:
<bean class="MyClass"/>
This will blow up during application startup (and IntelliJ flags it) because the required property is not set. But the same does not seem to be true of this:
#Configuration
public class MyConfig {
#Bean
public MyClass myClass() {
return new MyClass();
}
}
This application starts up just fine even though the required property is not ever set. I must be missing something here, because this seems like a pretty key feature in Spring.
UPDATE
I did some digging & debugging and it turns out that the bean definition is somehow being flagged to skip checking that #Required fields are set. In the Spring class 'RequiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor' the boolean method 'shouldSkip()' is returning true for beans created this way. When I used the debugger to force that method to return false bean creation did indeed blow up with the expected exception.
Seeing as I'm making a pretty basic Spring Boot application I'm inclined (as Zergleb suggests) to submit this as a bug.
UPDATE 2
Some further debugging has revealed that even if the field is getting set forcing the check still throws the same exception, as if it hadn't been set. So perhaps dunni is correct and there is no way for this to work with #Bean notation.
As you said I also could not get #Required to run as expected this may be a bug and needs to be reported. I have a few other suggestions that did work for me.
Class annotated with #Configuration
//With the bean set up as usual These all worked
#Bean
public MyClass myClass() {
return new MyClass();
}
When you annotate the class #Component and load using component scanning works as expected.(The component scanning part is important you either need your #Configuration class to either have #ComponentScan or perhaps remove #Configuration and replace with #SpringBootApplication and this will enable scanning for components without needing to wire them up using #Bean configs)
#Component // Added this
public class MyClass {
...
#Required //Failed as expected
public void setSomeProp(String val){
}
}
Use #Autowired(required=true) //Fails with BeanCreationException //No qualifying bean of type [java.lang.String] found for dependency
//No more #Component
public class MyClass {
...
#Autowired(required=true) //Fails
public void setSomeProp(String val){
}
}
#Autowired required=false //Does not crash
public class MyClass {
...
#Autowired(required=false) //Simply never gets called if missing
public void setSomeProp(String val){
}
}
#Value //Does not work if test.property is missing // Could not resolve placeholder 'test.property' in string value "${test.property}
public class MyClass {
#Value("${test.property}")
String someProp;
//This getter is not neccesary neither is a setter
public String getSomeProp() {
return this.someProp;
}
}
#Value with default value//Does not crash // When getSomeProp is called it returns "My Default Value"(Unless you have test.property=Anything in your application.properties file then it returns "Anything"
public class MyClass {
#Value("${test.property:My Default Value}")
String someProp;
//This getter is not neccesary neither is a setter
public String getSomeProp() {
return this.someProp; //Returns "My Default Value"
}
}
Inside your #Configuration file also fails if it cannot find anything to populate String someProp in the myClass method
#Bean
public MyClass myClass(String someProp) { //Fails being unable to populate this arg
MyClass myObj = new MyClass();
myObj.setSomeProp(someProp);
return ;
}
If course this won't work, since you create the object of MyClass yourself (new MyClass()), thus the annotations are not evaluated. If you create a bean with a #Bean method, the container will only make sure, that all dependencies are there (method parameters) and that the bean scope is adhered to, meaning if it's a singleton bean, only one bean is created per application context. The creation of the bean/object itself is solely the responsibility of the developer.
The equivalent of the xml <bean> tag is annotating the class with #Component, where the bean is created completely by the container, thus the annotations are evaluated.
As it is being said that when you are having your own #Configuration class where you are creating the bean by itself, #Required doesn't apply there.
When you already have a #Component, let Spring Boot do the component scan and at the required setter property you can add #Autowired and it will work fine.
Found this link on web- https://www.boraji.com/spring-required-annotation-example
For example:
I have a Component called Employee having Id and Name.
#Component
public class Employee {
int id;
String name;
public int getId() {
return id;
}
#Autowired
#Required
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
I have a Configuration class called AppConfig.java
#Configuration
public class AppConfig {
#Bean
public int getId() {
return 1;
}
}
So now we see, that component Employee needs an Id property for binding during startup, so I wrote bean method of type Integer, which will get autowired during runtime. If you do not write a bean of type Integer, it will result a BeanCreationException.
And here is my main class file.
#SpringBootApplication
public class SingletonApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ApplicationContext ctx =
SpringApplication.run(SingletonApplication.class, args);
Employee emp = (Employee)ctx.getBean(Employee.class);
System.out.println(emp.getId());
}
}
I'm trying to build a Spring 3.1 PropertySource which reads its values from Zookeeper nodes. For connecting to Zookeeper I am using Curator from Netflix.
For that I've built a custom property source which reads the value of a property from Zookeeper and returns it. This works fine when I am resolving the property like this
ZookeeperPropertySource zkPropertySource = new ZookeeperPropertySource(zkClient);
ctx.getEnvironment().getPropertySources().addLast(zkPropertySource);
ctx.getEnvironment().getProperty("foo"); // returns 'from zookeeper'
However, when I try to instantiate a bean which has a field with an #Value annotation then this fails:
#Component
public class MyBean {
#Value("${foo}") public String foo;
}
MyBean b = ctx.getBean(MyBean.class); // fails with BeanCreationException
This problem has most likely nothing to do with Zookeeper but with the way I'm registering the property sources and creating the beans.
Any insight is highly appreciated.
Update 1:
I'm creating the app context from an XML file like this:
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ConfigurableApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("applicationContext.xml");
ctx.registerShutdownHook();
}
}
The class which connects to Zookeeper is a #Component.
#Component
public class Server {
CuratorFramework zkClient;
public void connectToZookeeper() {
zkClient = ... (curator magic) ...
}
public void registerPropertySource() {
ZookeeperPropertySource zkPropertySource = new ZookeeperPropertySource(zkClient);
ctx.getEnvironment().getPropertySources().addLast(zkPropertySource);
ctx.getEnvironment().getProperty("foo"); // returns 'from zookeeper'
}
#PostConstruct
public void start() {
connectToZookeeper();
registerPropertySource();
MyBean b = ctx.getBean(MyBean.class);
}
}
Update 2
This seems to work when I'm using XML-less configuration, i.e. #Configuration, #ComponentScan and #PropertySource in combination with an AnnotationConfigApplicationContext. Why doesn't it work with a ClassPathXmlApplicationContext?
#Configuration
#ComponentScan("com.goleft")
#PropertySource({"classpath:config.properties","classpath:version.properties"})
public class AppConfig {
#Bean
public static PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer propertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer() {
return new PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer();
}
}
Answering to your Update 2: This does not work with your original configuration(registering a PropertySource using #PostConstruct) because the PropertySource is being registered very late, by this time your target bean has already been constructed and initialized.
Typically the injection of the placeholders happens via a BeanFactoryPostProcessor which is very early in the Spring lifecycle(beans have not been created at this stage) and if a PropertySource is registered at that stage, then placeholders should be resolved.
The best approach though is to use a ApplicationContextInitializer, get a handle on the applicationContext and to register the propertySource there:
public class CustomInitializer implements ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableWebApplicationContext> {
public void initialize(ConfigurableWebApplicationContext ctx) {
ZookeeperPropertySource zkPropertySource = new ZookeeperPropertySource(zkClient);
ctx.getEnvironment().getPropertySources().addFirst(zkPropertySource);
}
}
Is possible to get the proxy of a given object in Spring? I need to call a function of a subclass. But, obviously, when I do a direct call, the aspects aren't applied. Here's an example:
public class Parent {
public doSomething() {
Parent proxyOfMe = Spring.getProxyOfMe(this); // (please)
Method method = this.class.getMethod("sayHello");
method.invoke(proxyOfMe);
}
}
public class Child extends Parent {
#Secured("president")
public void sayHello() {
System.out.println("Hello Mr. President");
}
}
I've found a way of achieving this. It works, but I think is not very elegant:
public class Parent implements BeanNameAware {
#Autowired private ApplicationContext applicationContext;
private String beanName; // Getter
public doSomething() {
Parent proxyOfMe = applicationContext.getBean(beanName, Parent.class);
Method method = this.class.getMethod("sayHello");
method.invoke(proxyOfMe);
}
}
This hack is extremely awkward, please consider refactoring your code or using AspectJ weaving. You may feel warned, here is the solution
AopContext.currentProxy()
JavaDoc. I blogged about it here and here.
AopContext.currentProxy() as suggested by Tomasz will work. A more generic solution, that will work outside of the proxied class is to cast the object to org.springframework.aop.framework.Advised and get .getTargetSource().getTarget()
The former (getting the real object from the proxied object) is something that you should not really need. On the other hand getting the target proxy might be useful in some utility class that inspects existing beans in order to add some feature.
You can use a bean post-processor to set a reference to the proxy on the target bean. It moves the Spring-specifics from your beans to a single class.
Post-Processor
import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanPostProcessor;
public class SelfReferencingBeanPostProcessor implements BeanPostProcessor {
#Override
public Object postProcessBeforeInitialization(Object bean, String beanName) throws BeansException {
return bean;
}
#Override
public Object postProcessAfterInitialization(Object bean, String beanName) throws BeansException {
if (bean instanceof SelfReferencingBean) {
((SelfReferencingBean) bean).setProxy(bean);
}
return bean;
}
}
Context
Register the post-processor in applicationContext.xml.
<bean id="srbpp" class="SelfReferencingBeanPostProcessor"/>
Beans
Each bean must implement SelfReferencingBean to tell the post-processor that it needs a reference to the proxy.
public interface SelfReferencingBean {
void setProxy(Object proxy) ;
}
Now implement setProxy in each bean that needs to call itself through its proxy.
public class MyBean implements SelfReferencingBean {
MyBean proxy;
#Override
public void setProxy(Object proxy) {
this.proxy = (MyBean) proxy;
}
}
You could put this last bit of code into a bean base class if you don't mind casting proxy to bean's type when calling methods directly on it. Since you're going through Method.invoke you wouldn't even need the cast.
With a little work I bet this could be converted to an annotation processor a la #Autowired. Come to think of it, I don't recall if I even tried adding a self-reference using #Autowired itself.
public class MyBean implements SelfReferencingBean {
#Autowired MyBean proxy;
}
