I migrated a Spring-Cloud-Function to use Functional Bean Registration.
I can register the Function that contains my application logic.
However my logic should be able to autowire a dynamodbRepository which I currently defined like this:
#EnableScan
public interface BookRepository extends CrudRepository<CodingTip, String> {
List<Book> findAllByAuthor(String author);
}
Since I am not scanning for beans anymore no bean is created of type BookRepository. This means that I have to register it myself. But I do not want to define the implementations of all the CRUD methods.
Currently I could write:
context.registerBean("repository", BookRepository.class, () -> new BookRepository(){ ... });
How would I register the BookRepository bean while still maintaining the advantages of all the CRUD methods being implemented for me?
Check out this incubator project called Spring Fu. Although it is written in Kotlin, it might help you find a way to do this.
Take a look here to see how Sébastien did it with a MongoDB database.
Creating a DynamoDB client and an implementation instead of using an annotated interface would be the way forward I guess.
Hope that helps! :)

I'm working with PostgresSQL and I have the following interface:
#Repository
public interface ExampleRepository extends CrudRepository<ExampleEntity, Long> { }
Then I try to get the bean:
ExampleRepository repository = ctx.getBean(ExampleRepository.class);
Of course, I can't do that, because there's no implementation and eventually I get
NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type 'ExampleRepository'
I know this is a wrong approach, but since I'm not enough experienced, I've got no idea how I can communicate with my database. Any example I searched only explained how to implement services & controllers in order to interact with db through Browser. But I want to do CRUD operation inside the java code.
Could anyone explain it to me? Any related sources would also be fine.
I am not sure how you are getting context (ctx) here.
But the common approach is #Repository is not needed instead, #EnableJPARepositories should be used in the #Configuration file. Then use #Autowired to inject the repository into your service class (where you want to execute operation from your repository bean)
You can refer below link for more details
https://mkyong.com/spring-boot/spring-boot-spring-data-jpa/
You don't need to create bean. It will created by the spring framework because you annotated your interface as #Repository .You need only #Autowired in your service class or where do you want to use this reference.
#Autowired
private ExampleRepository exampleRepository;
I'm new to Spring Boot, so bare me with my basic question here.
I want to build a generic #Service class that has well defined methods that don't even need to be overwritten.
The only thing this class needs is to adjust its attributes based on which Controller method was called. Basically, this class works as a Job handler that needs to adjust some parameters so its methods can perform what they're supposed to compute. The job will always have the same workflow, calling the methods in the same order, but it will obtain different results depending on the parameters/attributes it receives, which, as I said before, are defined by the controller methods.
The only attribute it has beside the ones that adjust the job's workflow is an autowired #Repository object that will save the results of the job in a database.
Maybe I could simply instantiate an Job Handler object and call a constructor with the paramaters I need for the job, but I don't know what is the "Spring way" of doing this, considering how Spring works with dependency injection and I need a #Repository object embbeded into the Job Handler service.
I would really appreciate if anyone could write a sample code/example so I could understand how this can be done with Spring Boot so I don't have to duplicate code or Service Classes.
The Spring way for this case would be to create a Bean of your JobHandler, where you inject the necessary dependencies, like your Repository:
#Configuration
class MyConfiguration {
#Bean
MyJobHandler myJobHandler(MyRepository myRepository) {
return new MyJobHandler (myrepository);
}
}
Alternatively, if you do not want a configuration class, you could declare your JobHandler as a Component and inject the repository in the constructor:
#Component
class MyJobHandler {
private MyRepository myRepository;
public MyJobHandler myJobHandler(MyRepository myRepository) {
this.myRepository = myRepository;
}
}
I got interested in how Spring's #Transactional works internally, but everywhere I read about it there's a concept of proxy. Proxies are supposed to be autowired in place of real bean and "decorate" base method with additional transaction handling methods.
The theory is quite clear to me and makes perfect sense so I tried to check how it works in action.
I created a Spring Boot application with a basic controller and service layers and marked one method with #Transactional annotation. Service looks like this:
public class TestService implements ITestService {
#PersistenceContext
EntityManager entityManager;
#Transactional
public void doSomething() {
System.out.println("Service...");
entityManager.persist(new TestEntity("XYZ"));
}}
Controller calls the service:
public class TestController {
#Autowired
ITestService testService;
#PostMapping("/doSomething")
public ResponseEntity addHero() {
testService.doSomething();
System.out.println(Proxy.isProxyClass(testService.getClass()));
System.out.println(testService);
return new ResponseEntity(HttpStatus.OK);
}}
The whole thing works, new entity is persisted to the DB but the whole point of my concern is the output:
Service...
false
com.example.demo.TestService#7fb48179
It seems that the service class was injected explicitly instead of proxy class. Not only "isProxy" returns false, but also the class output ("com.example.demo.TestService#7fb48179") suggests its not a proxy.
Could you please help me out with that? Why wasn't the proxy injected, and how does it even work without proxy? Is there any way I can "force" it to be proxied, and if so - why the proxy is not injected by default by Spring ?
There's not much to be added, this is a really simple app. Application properties are nothing fancy either :
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
spring.datasource.username=root
spring.datasource.password=superSecretPassword
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/heroes?serverTimezone=UTC
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create-drop
Thank you in advance!
Your understanding is correct, but your test is flawed:
When the spring docs say "proxy", they are referring to the pattern, not a particular implementation. Spring supports various strategies for creating proxy objects. One of these is the java.lang.reflect.Proxy you tested for, but by default spring uses a more advanced technique that generates a new class definition at runtime that subclasses the actual implementation class of the service (and overrides all methods to apply transaction advice). You can see this in action by checking testService.getClass(), which will refer to that generated class, or by halting execution in a debugger, and inspecting the fields of targetService.
The reason that toString() refers to the original object is that the proxy implements toString() by delegating to its target object, which uses its class name to build the String.
I want to define a annotation like #PlatformRelated, once it is marked in a interface, there will be a proxy bean at spring context, and this proxy bean should be #Priority.I want this proxy could invoke different implement according to key parameter #KeyPrameter.And I still wanna use spring features like #Async,#Trasaction,etc... at my Implement1 and Implement2.
#PlatformRelated
interface MyInterface {
method(#KeyPrameter String parameter);
}
#Component
class Implement1 implements MyInterface {
method(String parameter){
//do something 111
}
}
#Component
class Implement2 implements MyInterface {
method(String parameter){
//do something 222
}
}
#Service
class BusinessService{
#Autowired
private MyInterface myInterface;
public void doSomething() {
myInterface.method("key1");
//Implement1 work
myInterface.method("key2");
//Implement2 work
}
}
Do you guys have some good idea to complete it?
I must admit I haven't totally understood the meaning #Priority, however, I can say that if you want to implement this feature in spring, you should probably take a look at Bean Post Processors.
BeanPostProcessors are essentially a hook to Bean Creation process in spring intended for altering bean behavior.
Among other things, they allow wrapping the underlying bean into the proxy (CGLIB/java.lang.Proxy if you're working with interfaces, or even using programmatically Spring AOP), these proxies can provide a hook to the method execution that can read your annotations (like mentioned #KeyParameter) and execute a code in a way similar to Aspect's code that you already make use of.
Not all bean post processor wrap the bean into the proxy. For example, if you want to implement a BPP that uses "#Autowire", you will return the same bean, just "inject" (read, put by reflection) its dependencies. On the other hand, if you want to implement with BPP #Transactional behavior, then yes, you should wrap the bean into a proxy that would take care of transaction management capabilities before and after the method execution.
It's totally ok to have a spring bean that gets "altered" by many post processors, some of them would wrap it into a proxy other will just modify-and-return the same bean, If there are many BPP-s that wrap the bean into proxy we'll get "proxy inside proxy inside proxy" (you get the idea). Each layer of proxy will handle one specific behavior.
As an example, I suggest you take a look at existing Spring postprocessors, or, for instance, a source code of the following library: Spring Boot metering integration library
This library contains some implementations of post processors that allow metrics infrastructure integration by defining annotations on methods of Spring Beans.
I'm planning to build a generic infrastructure for MVC CrudController and Generic CrudService using interface Proxies and custom annotation processing, because i have multiple endpoints in my project with the same CRUD pattern.
the bottom line is - defining interfaces of CrudController and CrudServices and create a ProxyBean for my interfaces and process cutsom annotation, i want to achieve the same pattern as spring data repositires where you need to define you repository interface only,
for example:
interface CrudController<T>{
//crud method...
}
interface CrudService<T>{
//crud method...
}
class GenericCrudControllerImpl<T>{
private CrudService<T> service;
//crud methods implementation and call service crud methods
}
the usage of this pattern would be like the following:
#CrudRestController(service=PersonCrudService.class) //PersonCrudService implements CrudService
class CrudPersonController implements CrudController<Person>{}
i know i should use Spring's FactoryBean<T> interfaces along with BeanPostProcessor, but the problem i don't know how to read the generic parameter of my CrudController, e.g. Person to be able to instansiate my generic implementations with the generic paramters, e.g. Person.
i need assistance how to use the ProxyBean pattern and BeanPostProcessor the right way to acheive the implementation above, i couldn't find any useful examples on the web.
