In this tutorial I am going to show you how lookup method injection works in Spring framework. You may face a situation where you need to inject prototype scoped bean into singleton scoped bean. For singleton scoped bean a new instance or object is created and the same is returned each time it is injected or looked up. But for prototype scoped bean a new object or instance is created each time it is injected or looked up. Prototype scoped bean is created at the time of usage. So prototype-scoped…

How to deal with Whitelabel Error Page in Spring Boot Applications
In this tutorial I am going to discuss about what is Whitelabel Error Page and how to deal with Whitelabel Error Page in Spring Boot applications. Spring boot allows you to setup a Spring based application with minimal configurations. Spring MVC applications provide no default (fall-back) error page out of the box but Spring Boot based applications provide a fall-back error page for handling errors. If you want to handle error in Spring based application then you have to set the default error page using SimpleMappingExceptionResolver. When an error or…
ContinueSpring Cloud Bus Example
Here I am going to build an application to show how to use Spring Cloud Bus. Let’s say you have multiple applications reading properties using Spring Cloud Config from centralized configuration files (for example, from Git repository). Spring Cloud Config is where you can have not only your all configurations centrally managed but also you can refresh them dynamically and which in turn can be picked by your referencing applications from the very next moment. So in central configurations using Spring Cloud Config, for each module if there is any…
ContinueSpring Batch – Scheduling Multiple Jobs Parallelly
In this example I am going to show you how to run multiple batch jobs parallelly in Spring Batch framework. Spring Batch is a lightweight, comprehensive batch framework designed to enable the development of robust batch applications vital for the daily operations of enterprise systems. Spring Batch provides reusable functions that are essential in processing large volumes of records, including logging/tracing, transaction management, job processing statistics, job restart, skip, and resource management. It also provides more advanced technical services and features that will enable extremely high-volume and high performance batch…
ContinueHow to deploy Spring Boot Data JPA Application to Heroku Cloud
In this tutorial I am going to show you an example on deploying Spring Boot application to Heroku cloud. I will create a basic CRUD application with Spring Boot Data JPA and PostgreSQL/MySQL technologies. I will first show you how to perform CRUD operations locally, then deploy the same application in the Heroku cloud with some modifications. CRUD is an acronym that stands for Create, Read, Update and Delete. I am building REST APIs using Spring Boot framework. I will use Postman tool to access and test the REST web…
ContinueSpring Boot OAuth2 SSO Example with AWS Cognito
Here in this example I am going to show you how to allow users for OAuth2 SSO (Single Sign On) using AWS (Amazon Web Services) Cognito. I had explained how to do OAuth2 Single Sign On using Spring Boot and GitHub account. Here I am going to use AWS Cognito. You can use any other providers, such as, Google, Facebook, etc. SSO is where a user logs in with single set of credentials (username/password) to gain access to multiple software systems. OAuth is a protocol with which a 3rd-party app…
ContinueHow to return Different Data Formats (JSON, XML) from Spring REST API
Introduction Here I am going to show you an example on how to return different data formats from REST API using Spring Boot framework. You may have a requirement that you need to return multiple formats, such as XML, JSON, etc., from the REST response, then this example may help you. This example will return XML and JSON format depending on your HTTP settings. By default the REST will send you the JSON response. You need to set key Accept‘s value in HTTP Headers to text/xml or application/xml to get…
ContinueMock an Autowired Value Field in Spring with Junit 5
In this example I am going to show you how to mock an autowired field in Spring boot framework with Junit 5. When you use @Value annotation in Spring beans to read the value from properties file and later when you want to perform Junit test then you also need to pass value for this autowired field value otherwise you won’t be able to cover your testing. Read if you need Junit 4 version of testing for Spring’s autowired field value. Now it is really cumbersome to place a properties…
ContinueSpring Data JPA @NamedQuery and @NamedQueries Example
Spring Data JPA provides multiple ways of selecting or fetching data from database server and one of the ways is using @NamedQuery or @NamedQueries. @NamedQuery and @NamedQueries can be created using XML configuration, external properties file or using Java based annotation config. Spring Data JPA supports both JPQL and SQL native named queries. Here I am going to show you examples on @NamedQuery and @NamedQueries. I am also going to use named parameter and positional parameter in the named queries. In XML configuration you need to use <named-query/> and for…
ContinueHow to generate PDF report from MySQL database in Spring Boot
I am going to show yo how to download PDF file from MySQL database using Spring Boot and iText library in Java programming language. Many applications require dynamic generation of PDF documents for reporting purpose, such as, generating statements for customers, readers buying online specific chapters of a book, etc. In my another tutorial I had shown how to create or write to a PDF file using Java based iText library. The iText library is freely available and can be used using maven or gradle build tool. We can also…
