How to lazy initialize spring-boot datasource?spring.data

I have a spring-boot application that defines a mysql DataSource:
spring.datasource.url=...
spring.datasource.username=...
spring.datasource.password=...
I run the tool as command line application triggered by a cronjob. And in 80% of all runs, I could exit the tool without having to contact the database at all:
#Controller
public class MainController {
#Autowired
private MyService myService;
public void evaluate() {
if (condition == true) myService.run();
else System.exit(0);
}
}
#Service
#Lazy
public class MyService {
#Autowired
private JdbcTemplate jdbc;
public void run() {
jdbc.execute(sql);
}
}
Problem: I want to prevent spring initializing the database at all. So, if for example the database is down or the host is unreachable (could be tested with using spring.datasource.url=localhostX), then the tool should still be runable.
Is that possible to delay the datasource initialization until it is really needed?

#SpringBootApplication(exclude = HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class)
Somehow the hikari pool and hibernate seem to interact on startup. And if the datasource is not present, startup fails.
Using the exclusion above with #Lazy annotation delays the initialization as expected.
But that only works because I don't make use of hibernate.

As said in spring doc(https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/2.1.13.RELEASE/reference/html/boot-features-sql.html):
Spring Data JPA repositories support three different modes of bootstrapping: default, deferred, and lazy. To enable deferred or lazy bootstrapping, set the spring.data.jpa.repositories.bootstrap-mode to deferred or lazy respectively.
So try the following config in your application.properties (or yaml):
spring.data.jpa.repositories.bootstrap-mode=lazy

Starting with Springboot 2.2 it is possible.
Add the following property in application.properties
spring.main.lazy-initialization=true
Read more detail here.

When using Hibernate as JPA implementation, I was able to avoid connecting to database during application startup by setting these 2 hibernate specific properties even though the beans are initialised at startup -
spring:
jpa:
properties:
hibernate:
temp:
use_jdbc_metadata_defaults: false
hbm2ddl:
auto: none
Here are the significance of these properties from Hibernate Documentation
hibernate.temp.use_jdbc_metadata_defaults (e.g. true (default value)
or false)
This setting is used to control whether we should consult
the JDBC metadata to determine certain Settings default values when
the database may not be available (mainly in tools usage).
and here
hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto (e.g. none (default value), create-only, drop,
create, create-drop, validate, and update)
Setting to perform
SchemaManagementTool actions automatically as part of the
SessionFactory lifecycle. Valid options are defined by the
externalHbm2ddlName value of the Action enum:
none No action will be performed.
So, after setting the properties, the jdbc connection is made only when executing sql queries.

Sprint Boot Data JPA: No qualifying bean of type 'java.util.Set<javax.persistence.EntityManager>' available

I am unable to get started with spring-boot-starter-data-jpa. I've created a simple Spring Boot app following this guide, but with Hibernate and related config.
build.gradle:
dependencies {
// Spring stuff
compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa:1.5.1.RELEASE'
compile 'org.springframework.data:spring-data-jpa'
compile 'org.springframework:spring-webmvc'
// Jackson
compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind:+'
compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat:jackson-dataformat-yaml:+'
// Postgres
compile 'org.postgresql:postgresql:+'
// Hibernate
compile 'org.hibernate:hibernate-core:5.2.8.Final'
}
Whenever I try to run the app, I end up with the following:
Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the auto-configuration report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled.

I have seen this bug (which is reportedly fixed as of 1.10.7) but downgrading spring-data-jpa to 1.9.x didn't help, I still got the same error.
Any ideas?

The problem is in hibernate-core. Removing it from dependencies resolves the issue.

I had the same problem when using Spring Boot 2.0.3-RELEASE with Hibernate/JPA with PostgreSQL 10.
I had the following configuration for JPA:
#EnableJpaRepositories
public class DomainConfiguration {
#Value("${database.password}")
private String password;
#Value("${database.url}")
private String url;
#Value("${database.username}")
private String userName;
#Bean
public DataSource dataSource() {
DriverManagerDataSource dataSource = new DriverManagerDataSource();
dataSource.setDriverClassName(Driver.class.getCanonicalName());
dataSource.setUrl(this.url);
dataSource.setUsername(this.userName);
dataSource.setPassword(this.password);
return dataSource;
}
#Bean
#DependsOn("flyway")
public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() {
HibernateJpaVendorAdapter vendorAdapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
vendorAdapter.setGenerateDdl(false);
LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean factory = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
factory.setJpaVendorAdapter(vendorAdapter);
factory.setJpaDialect(new HibernateJpaDialect());
factory.setPersistenceUnitName("MTH");
factory.setPackagesToScan("nl.mth.sync.domain");
factory.setDataSource(dataSource());
return factory;
}
#Bean
public Flyway flyway(DataSource dataSource) {
log.debug("--- configurating flyway ---");
Flyway fly = new Flyway();
fly.setDataSource(dataSource);
fly.migrate();
return fly;
}
#Bean
public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory) {
JpaTransactionManager txManager = new JpaTransactionManager();
txManager.setEntityManagerFactory(entityManagerFactory);
return txManager;
}
And I fixed the issue by adding the following method:
#Bean
public EntityManager entityManager(LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean) {
return localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.getObject().createEntityManager();
}

It can be solved by adding as argument to the notation the following:
#SpringBootApplication
This would be in the main method:
#SpringBootApplication(exclude = {DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class, JpaRepositoriesAutoConfiguration.class})

Migrate DataSource configuration to properties file

I am trying to migrate DataSource configuration to Spring Boot properties file (we migrated old Spring application to Spring Boot recently) but I am having problems defining all the required properties. I was trying to follow all the documentation but I am still apparently missing something.
This was the initial DataSource definition in a #Configuration file:
#Bean
public DataSource dataSource() {
final DataSource dataSource = new DataSource();
dataSource.setJdbcUrl(getDataSourceURL());
try {
dataSource.setDriverClass(getDriverName());
}
catch (final PropertyVetoException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Cannot set driverClass for datasource: ", e);
}
return dataSource;
}
I deleted the bean definition and tried to replace it with the following properties:
spring.datasource.url=my_url
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver
spring.jooq.sql-dialect=HSQLDB
spring.datasource.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect
However, I am getting the following exception during application startup:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'embeddedServletContainerCustomizerBeanPostProcessor': Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'metaDataSourceAdvisor': Cannot resolve reference to bean 'methodSecurityMetadataSource' while setting constructor argument; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.security.config.annotation.method.configuration.GlobalMethodSecurityConfiguration': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not postProcess org.springframework.security.access.expression.method.DefaultMethodSecurityExpressionHandler#6e599e88 of type class org.springframework.security.access.expression.method.DefaultMethodSecurityExpressionHandler

Could someone point out to me what am I missing here?

Try with this setting:
## JDBC part
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydatabase
spring.datasource.username=useranme
spring.datasource.password=mypassword
spring.jpa.show-sql=true
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create
spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect
You have to add this file in the resources folder with the application.properties name.

Here is how my "multiple bean" looks like :
#Converter(autoApply = true)
public class LocalDateAttributeConverter implements AttributeConverter<LocalDate, Date>
{
#Override
public Date convertToDatabaseColumn(LocalDate locDate)
{
return (locDate == null ? null : Date.valueOf(locDate));
}
#Override
public LocalDate convertToEntityAttribute(Date sqlDate)
{
return (sqlDate == null ? null : sqlDate.toLocalDate());
}
}
And one of unit test :
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest
public class XxxTest
{
}
It seems, it's an hibernate error but I can't find a right answer to this problem.
When I do a simple package test (with 3 test classes), it works fine.
But A whole "mvn test" leads to an error.
Here are my dependencies :
spring boot 1.4.0
spring 4.3.2
hibernate 5.0.1
junit 4.12
maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1
I'm interested by any clue to go further !

Christophe

Java 8 DateTime API has been supported in hibernate.
You don't need to have Attribute Converter for converting LocalDate to Date, you just need to have below dependency in your pom.xml for Hibernate 5.1.x and prior.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-java8</artifactId>
<version>{hibernate.version}</version>
</dependency>
For Hibernate 5.2+, the Java8 module has been merged into Hibernate proper.
Thanks for the edit, from hibernate-java8 5.2.1 Read me
Java8-specific Hibernate O/RM functionality has been merged into the hibernate-core module, making this hibernate-java8 module
obsolete. This module will be removed in Hibernate ORM 6.0. It is only kept here for various consumers that expect a
static set of artifact names across a number of Hibernate releases. See https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-10883

Cannot authenticate on Apache Cassandra 2.2.x

Trying to accomplish a simple proof of concept using Spring Data Gosling (RELEASE) and Spring Data Cassandra (1.3.0.RELEASE, imported from the parent BOM). The configuration class I use is the following:
#Configuration
#PropertySource(value = { "classpath:/cassandra/cassandra.properties" })
#EnableCassandraRepositories(basePackages = { "com.test.repositories" })
public class CassandraConfiguration extends AbstractCassandraConfiguration {
#Autowired
private Environment environment;
#Bean
#Override
public CassandraClusterFactoryBean cluster() {
CassandraClusterFactoryBean cluster = new CassandraClusterFactoryBean();
cluster.setUsername(environment.getProperty("cassandra.username"));
cluster.setPassword(environment.getProperty("cassandra.password"));
cluster.setContactPoints(environment.getProperty("cassandra.contactpoints"));
cluster.setPort(Integer.parseInt(environment.getProperty("cassandra.port")));
return cluster;
}
#Override
protected String getKeyspaceName() {
return environment.getProperty("cassandra.keyspace");
}
#Bean
#Override
public CassandraMappingContext cassandraMapping() throws ClassNotFoundException {
return new BasicCassandraMappingContext();
}
}
Starting the program leads to an error regarding authentication:

Using AllowAllAuthentication on the Cassandra side works flawlessly. The problem appears when I use PasswordAuthentication. On Cassandra 2.2.x,
dependency analysis shows the whole package is depending on the Datastax cassandra-driver-dse version 2.1.8 (which, on the other side, depends on the cassandra-driver-core 2.1.8). Forcing the driver dependency to the actual 2.2.0-rc3 leads to other problems, probably because it's still in an unsupported state.
Should I give up using data-cassandra with C* 2.2?
Thanks.

Turns out spring-data-cassandra 1.3.0.RELEASE CAN authenticate towards Apache Cassandra 2.2.x
All you need is building an AuthProvider object. The DataStax driver provides a concrete implementation for this interface: PlainTextAuthProvider.
The final cluster() method should be created like this:
#Bean
#Override
public CassandraClusterFactoryBean cluster() {
CassandraClusterFactoryBean cluster = new CassandraClusterFactoryBean();
PlainTextAuthProvider sap = new PlainTextAuthProvider(env.getProperty("cassandra.username"), env.getProperty("cassandra.password"));
cluster.setContactPoints(env.getProperty("cassandra.contactpoints"));
cluster.setPort(Integer.parseInt(env.getProperty("cassandra.port")));
cluster.setAuthProvider(sap);
return cluster;
}
