I have a SpringBoot application. I have a dedicated server, where I shall read data by the HTTP GET requests. I configured the http-outbound-config.xml file for Spring Integration module. When I run the following code, everything is fine:
http-outbound-config.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<int:channel id="requestChannel"/>
<int:channel id="replyChannel">
<int:queue capacity='10'/>
</int:channel>
<int-http:outbound-gateway id="outboundGateway"
request-channel="requestChannel"

</beans>
Main Application Class:
package test;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;
import ru.eco.products.waste.egr.Integration;
@SpringBootApplication
@ImportResource("/META-INF/spring/integration/http-outbound-config.xml")
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Integration integration = new Integration();
integration.start();
SpringApplication.run(WasteWebClientApplication.class,
args
);
}
}
Integration class:
package test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Qualifier;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.messaging.Message;
import org.springframework.messaging.MessageChannel;
import org.springframework.messaging.PollableChannel;
import org.springframework.messaging.support.MessageBuilder;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate;
@Component
@Configuration
public class Integration {
public void start() {
ClassPathXmlApplicationContext
context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:META-INF/spring/integration/http-outbound-config.xml");
context.start();
MessageChannel requestChannel = context.getBean("requestChannel", MessageChannel.class);
PollableChannel replyChannel = context.getBean("replyChannel", PollableChannel.class);
Message<?> message = MessageBuilder.withPayload("").build();
requestChannel.send(message);
Message<?> receivedMsg = replyChannel.receive();
System.out.println("RESULT IS : " + receivedMsg.getPayload());
}
}
BUT, when I try to Autowire MessageChannel and PollableChannel, I receive a null pointer exception.
Integration class(not working example):
package test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Qualifier;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.messaging.Message;
import org.springframework.messaging.MessageChannel;
import org.springframework.messaging.PollableChannel;
import org.springframework.messaging.support.MessageBuilder;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate;
@Component
@Configuration
public class Integration {
@Autowired
@Qualifier("requestChannel")
MessageChannel requestChannel;
@Autowired
@Qualifier("replyChannel")
PollableChannel replyChannel;
public void start() {
Message<?> message = MessageBuilder.withPayload("").build();
requestChannel.send(message);
Message<?> receivedMsg = replyChannel.receive();
System.out.println("RESULT IS : " + receivedMsg.getPayload());
}
}
- Question 1: Why Autowiring is not working?
- Question 2: What is the best way to get data from dedicated server and save it into DB? Such config is ok? I will create a model class for the response and after will save it into DB via JPA.
- Question 3: I need reading from server works in Async mode. How can I implement it in Spring Boot? So the main idea here is that I will receive a POST method from the UI, and will launch the integration with web-service. After integration will be finished, I need to notify user.
- Question 4: Maybe Camel will be the best solution here?
Stack: Java 11, Spring Boot, thymeleaf + bootstrap.
Thank you for the answer in advance.
