Overview of this book

Spring Boot provides a variety of features that address today's business needs along with today's scalable requirements. In this book, you will learn how to leverage powerful databases and Spring Boot's state-of-the-art WebFlux framework. This practical guide will help you get up and running with all the latest features of Spring Boot, especially the new Reactor-based toolkit. The book starts off by helping you build a simple app, then shows you how to bundle and deploy it to the cloud. From here, we take you through reactive programming, showing you how to interact with controllers and templates and handle data access. Once you're done, you can start writing unit tests, slice tests, embedded container tests, and even autoconfiguration tests. We go into detail about developer tools, AMQP messaging, WebSockets, security, and deployment. You will learn how to secure your application using both routes and method-based rules. By the end of the book, you'll have built a social media platform from which to apply the lessons you have learned to any problem. If you want a good understanding of building scalable applications using the core functionality of Spring Boot, this is the book for you.

Securing the Eureka Server

The last bastion to secure is our Eureka Server. To do so, we need to adopt similar steps to what we did with the Config Server.

First, add Spring Security to the Eureka Server, as follows:

    compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-security') 

This preceding dependency will enable Spring Security automatically. However, just like Config Server, it will generate a random password every time it launches. To pin the password, we need to add the same UserDetailsService bean as follows:

  @Bean
UserDetailsService userDetailsService() {
return new InMemoryUserDetailsManager(
User
.withUsername("user")
.password("password")
.roles("USER").build());
}

The recommended way to plug in the username/password settings for a Eureka client is by using the URL notation. For the chat...
