We had the similar issue using Boot (create a multi-servlets app with parent context) and we solved it in the following way:
1.Create your parent Spring config, which will consist all parent's beans which you want to share. Something like this:
@EnableAutoConfiguration(
exclude = {
//use this section if your want to exclude some autoconfigs (from Boot) for example MongoDB if you already have your own
}
)
@Import(ParentConfig.class)//You can use here many clasess from you parent context
@PropertySource({"classpath:/properties/application.properties"})
@EnableDiscoveryClient
public class BootConfiguration {
}
2.Create type which will determine the type of your specific app module (for example ou case is REST or SOAP). Also here you can specify your required context path or another app specific data (I will show bellow how it will be used):
public final class AppModule {
private AppType type;
private String name;
private String contextPath;
private String rootPath;
private Class<?> configurationClass;
public AppModule() {
}
public AppModule(AppType type, String name, String contextPath, Class<?> configurationClass) {
this.type = type;
this.name = name;
this.contextPath = contextPath;
this.configurationClass = configurationClass;
}
public AppType getType() {
return type;
}
public void setType(AppType type) {
this.type = type;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getRootPath() {
return rootPath;
}
public AppModule withRootPath(String rootPath) {
this.rootPath = rootPath;
return this;
}
public String getContextPath() {
return contextPath;
}
public void setContextPath(String contextPath) {
this.contextPath = contextPath;
}
public Class<?> getConfigurationClass() {
return configurationClass;
}
public void setConfigurationClass(Class<?> configurationClass) {
this.configurationClass = configurationClass;
}
public enum AppType {
REST,
SOAP
}
}
3.Create Boot app initializer for your whole app:
public class BootAppContextInitializer implements ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext> {
private List<AppModule> modules = new ArrayList<>();
BootAppContextInitializer(List<AppModule> modules) {
this.modules = modules;
}
@Override
public void initialize(ConfigurableApplicationContext ctx) {
for (ServletRegistrationBean bean : servletRegs(ctx)) {
ctx.getBeanFactory()
.registerSingleton(bean.getServletName() + "Bean", bean);
}
}
private List<ServletRegistrationBean> servletRegs(ApplicationContext parentContext) {
List<ServletRegistrationBean> beans = new ArrayList<>();
for (AppModule module: modules) {
ServletRegistrationBean regBean;
switch (module.getType()) {
case REST:
regBean = createRestServlet(parentContext, module);
break;
case SOAP:
regBean = createSoapServlet(parentContext, module);
break;
default:
throw new RuntimeException("Not supported AppType");
}
beans.add(regBean);
}
return beans;
}
private ServletRegistrationBean createRestServlet(ApplicationContext parentContext, AppModule module) {
WebApplicationContext ctx = createChildContext(parentContext, module.getName(), module.getConfigurationClass());
//Create and init MessageDispatcherServlet for REST
//Also here you can init app specific data from AppModule, for example,
//you can specify context path in the follwing way
//servletRegistrationBean.addUrlMappings(module.getContextPath() + module.getRootPath());
}
private ServletRegistrationBean createSoapServlet(ApplicationContext parentContext, AppModule module) {
WebApplicationContext ctx = createChildContext(parentContext, module.getName(), module.getConfigurationClass());
//Create and init MessageDispatcherServlet for SOAP
//Also here you can init app specific data from AppModule, for example,
//you can specify context path in the follwing way
//servletRegistrationBean.addUrlMappings(module.getContextPath() + module.getRootPath());
}
private WebApplicationContext createChildContext(ApplicationContext parentContext, String name,
Class<?> configuration) {
AnnotationConfigEmbeddedWebApplicationContext ctx = new AnnotationConfigEmbeddedWebApplicationContext();
ctx.setDisplayName(name + "Context");
ctx.setParent(parentContext);
ctx.register(configuration);
Properties source = new Properties();
source.setProperty("APP_SERVLET_NAME", name);
PropertiesPropertySource ps = new PropertiesPropertySource("MC_ENV_PROPS", source);
ctx.getEnvironment()
.getPropertySources()
.addLast(ps);
return ctx;
}
}
4.Create abstract config classes which will contain child-specific beans and everything that you can not or don't want share via parent context. Here you can specify all required interfaces such as WebSecurityConfigurer
or EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer
for your particular app module:
/*Example for REST app*/
@EnableWebMvc
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {
"com.company.package1",
"com.company.web.rest"})
@Import(SomeCommonButChildSpecificConfiguration.class)
public abstract class RestAppConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurationSupport {
//Some custom logic for your all REST apps
@Autowired
private LogRawRequestInterceptor logRawRequestInterceptor;
@Autowired
private LogInterceptor logInterceptor;
@Autowired
private ErrorRegister errorRegister;
@Autowired
private Sender sender;
@PostConstruct
public void setup() {
errorRegister.setSender(sender);
}
@Override
public void addInterceptors(InterceptorRegistry registry) {
registry.addInterceptor(logRawRequestInterceptor);
registry.addInterceptor(scopeInterceptor);
}
@Override
public void setServletContext(ServletContext servletContext) {
super.setServletContext(servletContext);
}
}
/*Example for SOAP app*/
@EnableWs
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"com.company.web.soap"})
@Import(SomeCommonButChildSpecificConfiguration.class)
public abstract class SoapAppConfiguration implements ApplicationContextAware {
//Some custom logic for your all SOAP apps
private boolean logGateWay = false;
protected ApplicationContext applicationContext;
@Autowired
private Sender sender;
@Autowired
private ErrorRegister errorRegister;
@Autowired
protected WsActivityIdInterceptor activityIdInterceptor;
@Autowired
protected WsAuthenticationInterceptor authenticationInterceptor;
@PostConstruct
public void setup() {
errorRegister.setSender(sender);
}
@Override
public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext applicationContext) throws BeansException {
this.applicationContext = applicationContext;
}
/**
* Setup preconditions e.g. interceptor deactivation
*/
protected void setupPrecondition() {
}
public boolean isLogGateWay() {
return logGateWay;
}
public void setLogGateWay(boolean logGateWay) {
this.logGateWay = logGateWay;
}
public abstract Wsdl11Definition defaultWsdl11Definition();
}
5.Create entry point class which will compile whole our app:
public final class Entrypoint {
public static void start(String applicationName, String[] args, AppModule... modules) {
System.setProperty("spring.application.name", applicationName);
build(new SpringApplicationBuilder(), modules).run(args);
}
private static SpringApplicationBuilder build(SpringApplicationBuilder builder, AppModule[] modules) {
return builder
.initializers(
new LoggingContextInitializer(),
new BootAppContextInitializer(Arrays.asList(modules))
)
.sources(BootConfiguration.class)
.web(true)
.bannerMode(Banner.Mode.OFF)
.logStartupInfo(true);
}
}
Now everything is ready to rocket our super multi-app boot in two steps:
1.Init your child apps, for example, REST and SOAP:
//REST module
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"com.module1.package.*"})
public class Module1Config extends RestAppConfiguration {
//here you can specify all your child's Beans and etc
}
//SOAP module
@ComponentScan(
basePackages = {"com.module2.package.*"})
public class Module2Configuration extends SoapAppConfiguration {
@Override
@Bean(name = "service")
public Wsdl11Definition defaultWsdl11Definition() {
ClassPathResource wsdlRes = new ClassPathResource("wsdl/Your_WSDL.wsdl");
return new SimpleWsdl11Definition(wsdlRes);
}
@Override
protected void setupPrecondition() {
super.setupPrecondition();
setLogGateWay(true);
activityIdInterceptor.setEnabled(true);
}
}
2.Prepare entry point and run as Boot app:
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Entrypoint.start("module1",args,
new AppModule(AppModule.AppType.REST, "module1", "/module1/*", Module1Configuration.class),
new AppModule(AppModule.AppType.SOAP, "module2", "module2", Module2Configuration.class)
);
}
}
enjoy ^_^
