Setting Up Swagger 2 with a Spring REST API | Baeldung. 1. Overview When creating a REST API, good documentation is instrumental. Moreover, every change in the API should be simultaneously described in the reference documentation. Accomplishing this manually is a tedious exercise, so automation of the process was inevitable. In this tutorial we will look at Swagger 2 for a Spring REST web service. For the purposes of this article, we will use the Springfox implementation of the Swagger 2 specification.

If you are not familiar with Swagger, you should visit its web page to learn more before continuing with this article. 2. The creation of the REST service we will use in our examples is not within the scope of this article. 3. As mentioned above, we will use the Springfox implementation of the Swagger specification. 4. 4.1. Configuration of Swagger mainly centers around the Docket bean. Swagger 2 is enabled through the @EnableSwagger2 annotation. This configuration is enough to integrate Swagger 2 into existing Spring Boot project. 4.2. 4.3. 5. 6. GitHub - livelessons-spring/building-microservices: Building Microservices with Spring Boot.

How Spring Boot Autoconfiguration Magic Works. Spring Boot with Docker. Now you can create a simple application. src/main/java/hello/Application.java package hello; import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;import org.springframework.boot.bind.RelaxedPropertyResolver;import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController; @SpringBootApplication@RestControllerpublic class Application { @RequestMapping("/") public String home() { return "Hello Docker World"; } public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args); } } The class is flagged as a @SpringBootApplication and as a @RestController, meaning it’s ready for use by Spring MVC to handle web requests.

@RequestMapping maps / to the home() method which just sends a 'Hello World' response. Now we can run the application without the Docker container (i.e. in the host OS). If you are using Gradle, execute: . Centralized Configuration. You’ll first need a Config Service ( configuration-service) to act as a sort of intermediary between your Spring applications and a typically version-controlled repository of configuration files. You can use Spring Cloud’s @EnableConfigServer to standup a config server that other applications can talk to. This is a regular Spring Boot application with one annotation added to enable the config server. configuration-service/src/main/java/hello/ConfigServiceApplication.java package hello; import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;import org.springframework.cloud.config.server.EnableConfigServer; @EnableConfigServer@SpringBootApplicationpublic class ConfigServiceApplication { public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(ConfigServiceApplication.class, args); }} The Config Server needs to know which repository to manage.

There are several choices here, but we’ll use a Git-based filesystem repository. OmniGraffle - diagramming and graphic design for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Async systems with sync clients | Codurance. As the Reactive Manifesto says Reactive systems are: Responsive Resilient Elastic Message Driven The last principle often goes together with non-blocking async protocols. This style of communication "allows recipients to only consume resources while staying active, leading to less system overhead". This fits perfectly with new demands of efficiency derived from the elastic model of cloud providers. However not every system is async and integrating an async system with a sync client could be tricky.

Integration Strategies We can fix the mismatch of communication styles through a couple of strategies. Polling This involves work for both parties. Polling is by nature inefficient but could be a good solution when the technological stack doesn't allow bidirectional protocols like Web Sockets. Hiding asynchronicity If we don't have control over those clients, we'll probably have to hide our async nature under some sync layer. Learning by example Part 1 | Part 2. Reactive Programming in the Netflix API with RxJava. By Ben Christensen and Jafar Husain Our recent post on optimizing the Netflix API introduced how our web service endpoints are implemented using a reactive programming model for composition of asynchronous callbacks from our service layer.

This post takes a closer look at how and why we use the reactive model and introduces our open source project RxJava – a Java implementation of Rx (Reactive Extensions). Embrace Concurrency Server-side concurrency is needed to effectively reduce network chattiness. Java Futures are Expensive to Compose Java Futures are straight-forward to use for a single level of asynchronous execution but they start to add non-trivial complexity when they're nested (prior to Java 8 CompletableFuture). Conditional asynchronous execution flows become difficult to optimally compose (particularly as latencies of each request vary at runtime) using Futures.

Callbacks Have Their Own Problems Reactive Observable Service Layer RxJava Some of the goals of RxJava are: Reactive Programming in the Netflix API with RxJava. What Architects Should Know About Reactive Design Patterns | @lightbend. It is widely understood that our software needs to become reactive; we need to consider responsiveness, maintainability, elasticity and scalability from the outset.

Not all systems need to implement all these to the same degree, as specific project requirements will determine where effort is most wisely spent. But, in the vast majority of cases, the need to go reactive will demand that we design our applications differently. Modern applications present incredible design challenges: we expect near-realtime performance while managing petabyte-scale data and distribution across environments ranging from traditional servers to cloud systems to mobile devices.

In this presentation by Dr. Roland Kuhn, we explore several architecture elements that are commonly found in reactive systems, like the circuit breaker, various replication techniques, and flow control protocols. The webinar presented is just a snapshot of the work-in-progress book, Reactive Design Patterns. Share. Developing Reactive Microservices: free O'Reilly mini-book by Java Champion Markus Eisele | @lightbend. As we continue to help organizations modernize their legacy systems with Microservices architecture, our latest mini-book arrives right on time.

We are happy to announce the availability of Developing Reactive Microservices: Enterprise Implementation in Java, a new O'Reilly mini-book authored by Java Champion and Lightbend Developer Advocate, Markus Eisele (@myfear). Download a free copy in PDF, EPUB or MOBI format (or all three!) With microservices taking the software industry by storm, traditional enterprises running large, monolithic Java EE applications have been forced to rethink what they’ve been doing for nearly two decades.

But how can Microservices built upon Reactive principles make a difference? In this O’Reilly mini-book, Markus Eisele continues where we left off in Reactive Microservices Architecture (authored by Lightbend CTO, Jonas Bonér), walking Java developers through the creation of a complete Reactive Microservices-based system. With this report, you will: Share. Next Generation Session Management with Spring Session.

Session management has been part of enterprise Java for so long that it has faded to the background of our consciousness as a solved problem, and we have not seen any major innovation in that arena in recent memory. However the modern trend towards micro services and horizontally scalable cloud native applications challenges the assumptions upon which session managers have been designed and built for the past 20 years, and exposes flaws in the design of modern session managers. This article will demonstrate how the recently released Spring Session APIs help surmount some of the limitations of the current approach to session management, traditionally employed by enterprise Java.

We will start with a summary of the problems with current session managers, then dig into the details of how Spring Session solves each of those problems. We will wrap up the article with a detailed explanation of how Spring Session works and how you can use it in your projects. Multiple Accounts Per User Conclusion. Spring Data Redis.

A Journey into Microservices: A Cloudy Beginning | Hailo Tech Blog.

This is the second part of a three-part article. Start reading at part one, A Journey into Microservices. From the start there were a number of guiding principles we wanted to instill into our new platform. One of these was taking a Cloud Native approach, something which had been been pioneered by Netflix. Adrian Cockcroft has talked about the approach Netflix took, with their aim during this process being to: “Construct a highly agile and highly available service from ephemeral and assumed broken components” –Adrian Cockcroft While using a cloud provider isn’t necessarily a requirement, infrastructure as a service obviously makes scaling much easier.

However, regardless of hosting provider, any large distributed system will have components that are failing or degraded at any point in time. This concept of antifragility was popularised by Nassim Nicholas Taleb and is central to becoming cloud native. So, why Go? But, what even is a Service? Developers, Developers, Developers. Dystopia as a Service. Microservices with Spring. NOTE: Revised 21 May 2016 A simple example of setting up a microservices system using Spring, Spring Boot and Spring Cloud.

Microservices allow large systems to be built up from a number of collaborating components. It does at the process level what Spring has always done at the component level: loosely coupled processes instead of loosely coupled components. For example imagine an online shop with separate microservices for user-accounts, product-catalog order-processing and shopping carts: Inevitably there are a number of moving parts that you have to setup and configure to build such a system. In this article I aim to clarify how things work by building the simplest possible system step-by-step.

The Web-Application will make requests to the Account-Service microservice using a RESTful API. The code for this application is here: Follow-Up 1: Other Resources This article only discusses a minimal system. The Spring Cloud projects are here. Logging. Functional Reactive in the Netflix API with RxJava. Creating an Asynchronous, Event-Driven Application with Reactor. Reactor - a foundation for asynchronous applications on the JVM. We’re pleased to announce that, after a long period of internal incubation, we’re releasing a foundational framework for asynchronous applications on the JVM which we’re calling Reactor.

It provides abstractions for Java, Groovy and other JVM languages to make building event and data-driven applications easier. It’s also really fast. On modest hardware, it’s possible to process over 15,000,000 events per second with the fastest non-blocking Dispatcher. Other dispatchers are available to provide the developer with a range of choices from thread-pool style, long-running task execution to non-blocking, high-volume task dispatching. Reactor, as the name suggests, is heavily influenced by the well-known Reactor design pattern. What is Reactor good for? That’s why the Spring XD project (as well as several other Spring ecosystem projects like Spring Integration and Spring Batch) intend to take advantage of Reactor.

Selectors, Consumers and Events To Groovy, with Love Dispatching. Why REST Keeps Me Up At Night. This guest post comes from Daniel Jacobson (@daniel_jacobson), director of engineering for the Netflix API. Prior to Netflix, Daniel ran application development for NPR where he created the NPR API, among other things. He is also the co-author of APIs: A Strategy Guide and a frequent contributor to ProgrammableWeb and the Netflix Tech Blog.

With respect to Web APIs, the industry has clearly and emphatically landed on REST as the standard way to implement these services. And for good reason... REST, which is generally implemented as a one-size-fits-all solution, is an excellent choice for a most companies who wish to expose their content to third parties, mobile app developers, partners, internal teams, etc. REST APIs are excellent at handling requests in a generic way, establishing a set of rules that allow a large number of known and unknown developers to easily consume the services that the API offers. In this model, everyone knows how to behave and it can be incredibly powerful. Time to Move to a Four-Tier Application Architecture.

The new year is well underway and, like many others, you are probably planning upcoming projects to enhance your existing digital experiences or build completely new websites and applications. As you do so, the most critical fact to keep in mind is that “web” no longer means “web browser.” Pundits have been espousing a “mobile first approach” to application development for years, but with an annual mobile traffic growth rate of nearly 60% this is not negotiable any longer. The explosion in the number of connected devices, the shift of traffic from desktop to mobile, and the rising tide of the internet of things means that projects must now be rooted in the diversity of user experiences available on different devices. To build and deploy apps that effectively attract and retain customers on a range of devices, you need to embrace a new way of thinking about app design.

Why is the Standard for Application Architecture Changing? Introducing the New Application Architecture. Immutable Infrastructure: what is it? - HighOps. If you haven’t read our first post Immutable Infrastructure: 6 questions to 6 experts containing the context and the full highlights of our little Q&A with 6 experts I suggest you do that first. Also remember you can always download the full 14-page PDF with the full transcript at the bottom of this page. So what is an Immutable Infrastructure? “A pattern or strategy for managing services in which infrastructure is divided into “data” and “everything else”. “Everything else” components are replaced at every deployment, with changes made only by modifying a versioned definition, rather than being updated in-place.”

Kief: I see it as conceptually dividing your infrastructure into “data” and “everything else”. Andrew: To me, II describes a pattern or strategy for managing services in which changes (patches, application upgrades, configuration changes etc.) are made only by modifying a versioned service definition and updating running services instances to the new definition version.
