Developing Java Applications with Spring and Spring Boot

Overview of this book

Spring Framework has become the most popular framework for Java development. It not only simplifies software development but also improves developer productivity. This book covers effective ways to develop robust applications in Java using Spring. The course is up made of three modules, each one having a take-away relating to building end-to-end java applications. The first module takes the approach of learning Spring frameworks by building applications.You will learn to build APIs and integrate them with popular fraemworks suh as AngularJS, Spring WebFlux, and Spring Data. You will also learn to build microservices using Spring's support for Kotlin. You will learn about the Reactive paradigm in the Spring architecture using Project Reactor. In the second module, after getting hands-on with Spring, you will learn about the most popular tool in the Spring ecosystem-Spring Boot. You will learn to build applications with Spring Boot, bundle them, and deploy them on the cloud. After learning to build applications with Spring Boot, you will be able to use various tests that are an important part of application development. We also cover the important developer tools such as AMQP messaging, websockets, security, and more. This will give you a good functional understanding of scalable development in the Spring ecosystem with Spring Boot. In the third and final module, you will tackle the most important challenges in Java application development with Spring Boot using practical recipes. Including recipes for testing, deployment, monitoring, and securing your applications. This module will also address the functional and technical requirements for building enterprise applications. By the end of the course you will be comfortable with using Spring and Spring Boot to develop Java applications and will have mastered the intricacies of production-grade applications.

Wiring in image ownership


Spring WebFlux's ServerWebExchange comes prepared for security by providing a getPrincipal() API that returns Mono<Principal>. While the default version, straight out of Spring Framework, supplies Mono.empty(), Spring Security automatically hooks in a filter to supply a real value via WebSessionSecurityContextRepository.

With Spring Security and Spring Session hooked into all our web calls, we can leverage this information every time a new image is uploaded.

First of all, we can adjust our Image domain object as follows:

    @Data 
    @AllArgsConstructor 
    public class Image { 
 
      @Id private String id; 
      private String name; 
      private String owner; 
    } 

This last code is the same POJO that we've used throughout this book with one change:

  • It now has a String owner property. This lets us associate an image with whoever uploaded it (which we'll see shortly).

Spring Security makes it possible to inject any Spring WebFlux controller with an authentication...
