How to create a basic Spring 6 project using Maven

Below is a step-by-step guide to creating a basic Spring project using Maven.

1) Create a Maven Project

Use the following Maven command to create a new Maven project.

mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.tb -DartifactId=spring-demo -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart -DinteractiveMode=false

2) Import in IntelliJ IDEA

If you haven't already, open IntelliJ IDEA on your system. Go to "File" > "New" > "Project from Existing Sources...".

In the file dialog, navigate to the directory where your Maven project is located. Select the pom.xml file within the project directory and click "Open."

3) Update pom.xml

In total, the application requires the below-mentioned dependencies:

4) Create Spring Configuration

Create a Java configuration class that uses annotations to define your Spring beans and their dependencies. This class should be annotated with @Configuration.

5) Create the Main Application

Create a main application class where you'll bootstrap the Spring context using AnnotationConfigApplicationContext.

AnnotationConfigApplicationContext is an implementation of the ApplicationContext interface in Spring. It allows you to create a Spring application context based on Java configuration classes that use annotations to define beans and their dependencies.


6) Build the Project

You can use the following Maven command to compile it.

mvn compile

7) Run the Application

Click on the green "Run" button in the gutter (left-hand side) of the editor window next to the main method.

The Java application will start running, and you should see the output in the "Run" tab at the bottom of the IntelliJ IDEA window.

Deploying Spring Boot microservices on Kubernetes Cluster

This article guides you through the deployment of two Spring Boot microservices, namely "order-service" and "inventory-service," on Kubernetes using "MiniKube" . We will establish communication between them, with "order-service" making calls to an endpoint in "inventory-service." Additionally, we will configure "order-service" to be accessible from the local machine's browser . 1) Create Spring Boot microservices The Spring Boot microservices, "order-service" and "inventory-service," have been developed and can be found in this GitHub repository. If you are interested in learning more about creating Spring Boot REST microservices, please refer to this or this (Reactive) link. 2) Build Docker Images The Docker images for both "order-service" and "inventory-service" have already been generated and deployed on DockerHub, as shown below. codeburps/order-service cod...

Circuit Breaker Pattern with Resilience4J in a Spring Boot Application

Read Also: Spring Cloud Circuit Breaker + Resilience4j Resilience4j is a lightweight fault tolerance library that draws inspiration from Netflix Hystrix but is specifically crafted for functional programming. The library offers higher-order functions, known as decorators , designed to augment any functional interface, lambda expression, or method reference with features such as Circuit Breaker, Rate Limiter, Retry, or Bulkhead . These functionalities can be seamlessly integrated within a project, class, or even applied to a single method. It's possible to layer multiple decorators on any functional interface, lambda expression, or method reference, allowing for versatile and customizable fault tolerance. While numerous annotation-based implementations exist online, this article focuses solely on the reactive approach using router predicates and router functions . How Circuit Breaker Pattern works? In general, a circuit breaker functions as an automatic electrical s...

Reactive programming in Java with Project Reactor

Reactive programming is a declarative programming paradigm that focuses on building applications that are responsive, resilient, and scalable in the face of modern challenges like concurrency, distributed systems, and asynchronous data streams . Reactive programming provides a set of tools, patterns, and abstractions to handle asynchronous and event-driven programming more effectively. Imperative programming focuses on describing the step-by-step instructions or commands that the computer needs to follow to achieve a specific task. In this paradigm, you explicitly state how to perform each operation and control flow in your code. The emphasis is on "how" the computation should be done. int sum = 0; for (int i = 1; i Declarative programming emphasizes specifying what you want to achieve rather than detailing how to achieve it. You describe the desired outcome or the properties of the result, and the programming language or framework handles the execution detai...
