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.

Putting the infrastructure on Docker


Our infrastructure is ready and it enables us to develop the application. We can create a Docker compose file to spin up the infrastructure services; during the development life cycle, components such as Eureka, Config Server, Trace Server, and API Gateway do not suffer changes because they interact as an infrastructure.

Then, it enables us to create component images and use them in the docker-compose.yaml file. Let's list our components:

  • Config Server
  • Eureka
  • Zipkin
  • RabbitMQ
  • Redis

We know how to create Docker images using the Fabric8 Maven plugin, we have done this several times in the previous chapters – let's do it.

Let's configure one as an example, keep in mind we need do the same configuration for all projects, Eureka, Gateway, Config Server, and Gateway. The following snippet configures the docker-maven-plugin to generate a Docker image:

<plugin>
  <groupId>io.fabric8</groupId>
  <artifactId>docker-maven-plugin</artifactId>...
