I am creating a REST service in Spring boot. I am creating a bean in config class and trying to use in service class by auto wiring, but I am always getting null, I have tried in constructor injection as well but not working. Below is the code,
Main app
#SpringBootApplication
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args);
}
}
REST controller
#RestController
#RequestMapping("/v1")
public class RestController {
#Autowired
private Service service;
Service
#Service
public class ServiceImpl implements Service {
//This is the bean
#Autowired
private Record record;
public ServiceImpl() { //-----------------> tried injecting in constructor as well
System.out.println(record); //-------------------> null
}
Config class
#Configuration
public class AppConfig {
#Bean
public Record record() {
return new Record("test");
}
}
I noted whenever I remove the record() from config class I get below error
required a bean of type 'com.ns.service.Record' that could not be found
And after adding the method the error is not reported but null is returned, which indirectly means record() is considered as returning the required bean.
I can't find what I am doing wrong please advise.

I think you're doing everything right conceptually
Spring creates an object first and only after that injects the values (technically done in bean post processors):
So try this:
#Service
public class ServiceImpl implements Service {
//This is the bean
#Autowired
private Record record;
public ServiceImpl() {
// here the record is null - not injected yet
System.out.println(record);
}
#PostConstruct
public void checkThisOut() {
// here print the record
}
You say you've tried constructor injection as well - it should work because spring has to inject something into the constructor of a bean (ServiceImpl) or fail. Please show the code snippet
One this that might be wrong in some level (although it doesn't sound like this from your description) is that you have to put all the #Configuration/#Service annotated classes in the package that is the same or underneath the package where you've created the main class annotated with #SpringBootApplication annotation. It instructs spring boot where to look for the beans.
So make sure your classes obey this rule...

Colleagues, hello! Is is possible to inject beans inside of class which is created via 'new' operator?
For example:
public class TestClass implements Callback {
#Inject
TestClassRepository repository;
//just only methods...
}
And 'TestClass' is created from another class:
Flyway.configure().collbacks(new TestClass()).load();
I have an issue with this,because 'repository.anyMethods()' inside of TestClass creates 'NullPointer' exception.
'TestClassRepository' is marked with the '#ApplicationScoped' and '#Startup' annotations.
#Singleton
public class TestConfig {
#javax.enterprise.inject.Produces
public TestClass testClass() {
return new TestClass();
}
}
another class annotated with the #ApplicationsScoped or #Singleton:
#Inject
public void method(TestClass testClass) {
Flyway.configure().collbacks(testClass).load();
// your code
}
If you create an object by yourself calling a constructor (new TestClass()) then quarkus doesn't manipulate that object, and doesn't inject a repository.
No you cannot inject beans inside a class that is instanciate with the new keyword.
But you can still find a way around like so :
#Dependent
public class BeanFactory {
#Inject
TestClassRepository repository
#Produces
public TestClass createTestClass() {
return new TestClass(this.repository);
}
You can find more details here : Quarkus Contexts and dependency Injection
Also you can define multiple beans for different profiles as mentionned few lines bellow Here
This means you can create a repository for your tests and one for prod or whatever is best for your case.
Also I do not think the annotation "#Startup" would add anything to your TestClassRepository bean.
In my SpringBoot app, I have Autowired an configObject in the class that implements EnvironmentPostProcessor.
The injected class reads data from a different source on startup as this is required for the app to work.
But upon starting the application, the configObject is coming off as Null.
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableEncryptableProperties
#EnableConfigurationProperties
#EnableCaching
#Slf4j
public class SBApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(SBApplication.class, args);
}
}
And the AppEnvironmentPostProcessor class where the Autowired object is called. This class is configured as org.springframework.boot.env.EnvironmentPostProcessor in spring.factories. The class gets called on start up.
#Slf4j
public class AppEnvironmentPostProcessor implements
EnvironmentPostProcessor, Ordered {
#Autowired
KeysConfig keysConfig;
#Override
public void postProcessEnvironment(ConfigurableEnvironment environment,
SpringApplication application) {
// keysConfig is null
String key = keysConfig.getSecretKeyMap().get("key12");
}
}
And in the KeysConfig class
#Component
public final class KeysConfig {
public Map getSecretKeyMap() {
//Returns key map
}
}
I am using Intellij Ultimate. How can I debug and resolve this?
EnvironmentPostProcessors are created before the application context has been created and, therefore, before dependency injection is possible. This means that #Autowired won’t work.
You’ll have to update your implementation to create an instance of KeysConfig itself, or to use a different approach that mimics whatever KeysConfig currently does.
I am new at spring MVC framework and i am currently working in a web application that uses a session scoped bean to control some data flow.
I can access these beans in my application context using #Autowired annotation without any problem in the controllers. The problem comes when I use a class in service layer that does not have any request mapping (#RequestMapping, #GetMapping nor #PostMapping) annotation.
When I try to access the application context directly or using #Autowired or even the #Resource annotation the bean has a null value.
I have a configuration class as follow:
#Configuration
#EnableAspectJAutoProxy
#EnableJpaRepositories(repositoryFactoryBeanClass = EnversRevisionRepositoryFactoryBean.class, basePackages = "com.quantumx.nitididea.NITIDideaweb.repository")
public class AppConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {
#Bean (name = "lastTemplate")
#SessionScope
public LastTemplate getlastTemplate() {
return new LastTemplate();
}
//Some extra code
}
The POJO class is defined as :
public class LastTemplate {
private Integer lastId;
public LastTemplate(){
}
public Integer getLastId() {
return lastId;
}
public void setLastId(Integer lastId) {
this.lastId = lastId;
}
}
The I have a Test class that is annotated as service and does not have any request mapping annotated method:
//#Controller
#Service
public class Test {
// #Autowired
// private ApplicationContext context;
// #Autowired
#Resource(name = "lastTemplate")
public LastTemplate lastTemplate;
// #Autowired
// public void setLastTemplate(LastTemplate lastTemplate) {
// this.lastTemplate = lastTemplate;
// }
public Test() {
}
// #RequestMapping("/test")
public String testing() {
// TemplateForma last = (TemplateForma) context.getBean("lastInsertedTemplate");
// System.out.println(last);
System.out.println(lastTemplate);
// System.out.println(context.containsBean("lastTemplate"));
// System.out.println(context.getBean("lastTemplate"));
System.out.println("Testing complete");
return "Exit from testing method";
// return "/Messages/Success";
}
}
As you can see, there is a lot of commented code to show all the ways i have been trying to access my application context, using an Application context dependency, autowiring, declaring a resource and trying with a request mapping. The bean is null if no controller annotation and request mapping method is used and throws a java null pointer exception when I use the context getBean() methods.
Finally I just test my class in a controller that i have in my app:
#RequestMapping("/all")
public String showAll(Model model) {
Test test = new Test();
test.testing();
return "/Administrator/test";
}
Worth to mention that I also tried to change the scope of the bean to a Application scope and singleton, but it not worked. How can access my application context in a service class without mapping a request via controller?

It should have worked in this case.

Try one of these :-
#Autowired private ApplicationContext appContext;
OR
Implement ApplicationContextAware interface in the class where you want to access it.
Edit:
If you still want to access ApplicationContext from non spring managed class. Here is the link to article which shows how it can be achieved.
This page gives an example to get spring application context object with in non spring managed classes as well
What worked for me is that session scoped bean had to be removed in the application configuration declaration and moved to the POJO definition as follows:
#Component
#SessionScope
public class LastTemplate {
private Integer lastId;
public LastTemplate(){
}
public Integer getLastId() {
return lastId;
}
public void setLastId(Integer lastId) {
this.lastId = lastId;
}
}
The I just call the bean using #Autowired annotation.
I have a project structure similar to the one linked here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/29583882/1243462 . I have a util library containing a Service class in one JAR, meant to be consumed from another Java library/Maven project. However, my Service class itself uses Constructor Injection. So, where the original question had:
#Service
public class PermissionsService { ... }
I have
#Service
public class PermissionsService {
public PermissionsService(#Autowired PermissionsDao dao) {
//assign private dao field to autowired dao
}
}
And, like the original post, I want to create an instance of PermissionsService and inject it into my client/consumer application. I'm not sure of how to create a Configuration class.
#Configuration
public class PersistenceConfig {
public PermissionsService getPermissionsServiceBean() {
//What goes here?
}
}
For now, I have a workaround where I replaced the #Autowired PermissionsDao constructor argument with a field injection, and having a no-args constructor. This allows me to:
#Configuration
public class PersistenceConfig {
public PermissionsService getPermissionsServiceBean() {
return new PermissionsService();
}
}
But, since Field injection is discouraged, what is the right way to structure this code?
In your main module
#Configuration
#Import(PersistenceConfig.class)
public class ServiceConfig() {
}
In your utils module
#Configuration
#ComponentScan(basePackages = {"path-to-persistence-service-and-any-dependencies"})
public class PersistenceConfig {
}
The fact that you use constructor injection for PermissionsDao should not matter if you get the configuration right.
I'm relatively new to Spring Boot and dependency injection overall, so please forgive any noob things going on here. I'm building an API and am having trouble when injecting dependencies into a POJO resource (DTO).
When I call the method in the POJO this.numComments = commentSvc.getAllForPhoto(this.getId()); I am getting a NullPointerException. However, when I do this from another spring-managed bean and pass the values into the constructor, it works fine.
After reading around, it looks like I need to do something with aspectJ and Load Time Weaving, but I'm not sure what that would look like in my code.
In essence, my approach looks something like this:
PhotoResource.java (POJO)
public class PhotoResource extends BaseRepresentable {
#Autowired
CommentService commentSvc;
private Long id;
private Integer numComments;
PhotoResource(PhotoEntity entity){
super(entity);
this.setId(entity.getId);
this.numComments = commentSvc.getAllForPhoto(this.getId());
}
}
CommentService.java
#Service
public class CommentService{
public List<CommentResource> getAllForPhoto(Long photoId) {
// code to get all comments for photo
}
}
Application.java
#SpringBootApplication
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Application.class);
}
}
Spring won't inject the dependency unless you ask the Spring container to manage the bean. In order for commentSvc to be injected into PhotoResource class, you need to annotate it with #Component or #Bean or #Service, e.g.:
#Component
public class PhotoResource extends BaseRepresentable {
#Autowired
CommentService commentSvc;
}
And make sure the package of this class is included into #ComponentScan packages.
Also, the following won't compile:
#Service
public class CommentService(){
You don't need paranthesis to declare a class, it should be:
#Service
public class CommentService{
