Jersey HK2 Dependency Injection

7.5k views Asked by At

I'm writing a simple microservices that exposes REST API. So I started working with Jersey and of course I need to Inject my object into jersey resources. Basically I have 2 classes that defines a set of resources and some of them need to use another service.

So basically I have:

public interface MyService {

String getServiceName();

void doService();

}

2 implementations of this interface (MyServiceBean and MyAlternativeServiceBean)

and, as far as I understood reading jersey docs, I defined an hk2 Binder:

public class MyBinder implements Binder{

@Override
public void bind(DynamicConfiguration config) {

    DescriptorImpl descriptor = BuilderHelper.link(MyServiceBean.class).named("MyServiceBean").to(MyService.class).build();
    config.bind(descriptor);


    config.bind(BuilderHelper.link(MyAlternativeServiceBean.class).named("MyAlternativeServiceBean").to(MyService.class).build());

}

I registered this binder to the ApplicationConfig class

public class ApplicationConfig extends ResourceConfig{

public ApplicationConfig(){
    property("property.value", "MyAlternativeServiceImplementation");
    registerInstances(new MyBinder());
}

}

And annotated properly into the resources

@Path("first")
    public class First {

        @Inject @Named(value = "MyServiceBean")
        private MyService myService;
    //...
    }

    @Path("second")
    public class Second {

        @Inject @Named(value = "MyAlternativeServiceBean")
        private MyService myService;
    //...
    }

All works until MyService implementation have no args constructor. But in 1 case I need to provide a dependency also to MyAlternativeServiceBean.

Here is the constructor

@Inject @Named("property.value")
    public MyAlternativeServiceBean(String property){
        this.property = property;
    }

But I get an exception:

javax.servlet.ServletException: A MultiException has 5 exceptions.  They are:|1. org.glassfish.hk2.api.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: There was no object available for injection at Injectee(requiredType=String,parent=MyAlternativeServiceBean,qualifiers={}),position=0,optional=false,self=false,unqualified=null,2080509613)|2. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: While attempting to resolve the dependencies of com.hpe.services.MyAlternativeServiceBean errors were found|3. java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to perform operation: resolve on com.hpe.services.MyAlternativeServiceBean|4. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: While attempting to resolve the dependencies of com.hpe.tests.SecondEntryPoint errors were found|5. java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to perform operation: resolve on com.hpe.tests.SecondEntryPoint|

Basically I don't konw how to inject properties/constants (that I can read from a configuration file for instance) in hk2

Thanks

What you can do is create a custom annotation

@Target({ElementType.FIELD, ElementType.PARAMETER})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public @interface Config {
    String value();
}

Then create an InjectionResolver for it (which allows for injection using custom annotations)

public static class ConfigInjectionResolver implements InjectionResolver<Config> {

    private static final Map<String, String> properties = new HashMap<>();

    public ConfigInjectionResolver() {
        properties.put("greeting.message", "Hello World");
    }

    @Override
    public Object resolve(Injectee injectee, ServiceHandle<?> handle) {
        if (String.class == injectee.getRequiredType()) {
            AnnotatedElement elem = injectee.getParent();
            if (elem instanceof Constructor) {
                Constructor ctor = (Constructor) elem;
                Config config = (Config) ctor.getParameterAnnotations()[injectee.getPosition()][0];
                return properties.get(config.value());
            } else {
                Config config = elem.getAnnotation(Config.class);
                return properties.get(config.value());
            }
        }
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isConstructorParameterIndicator() { return true; }

    @Override
    public boolean isMethodParameterIndicator() { return false; }
}

This example just uses a Map, but I'm sure you can figure out how to make it use Properties. Once you register the InjectionResolver, you can now just do

public SomeService(@Config("some.property") String property) {}
