spring-cloud-starter-netflix-ribbon replaces spring-cloud-starter-ribbon

In the tutorial (Step 21) we need to use Feign. He suggested a pom.xml dependency, but the import didn’t match up.

He was importing:

import org.springframework.cloud.netflix.feign.EnableFeignClients;

and

import org.springframework.cloud.netflix.feign.FeignClient;

But there was nothing in the dependency he advocated. After a bit of searching:

Change:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-feign</artifactId>
<version>1.4.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

to:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-netflix-core</artifactId>
<version>1.4.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

But this gave all sorts of weird errors, like:

FileNotFoundException: class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/ServerPropertiesAutoConfiguration.class

and:

JDWP exit error JVMTI_ERROR_WRONG_PHASE(112): on checking for an interface [util.c:1313]

After removing all the Feign stuff, it was still not right, so I removed the netflix dependency and it was fine.

After a bit of searching I found that  spring-cloud-starter-feign was deprecated and I had to use spring-cloud-starter-openfeign.

A clean, stop and start, and we’re away again, phew! 

I’m following the Microservices tutorial and have come across an error when trying to get properties from my git repository. It’s an easy one, just change the back-slash to forward slashes 🙂

In application.properties:

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file://C:/Users/Me/git/spring-micro-services/git-localconfig-repo

In application.properties:

spring.h2.console.enabled=true
spring.h2.console.path=/h2console/

In my security configuration class I added a bit more to the HttpSecurity configuration:

package com.example.demo;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.EnableWebSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter;

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter{
@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception{

http.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/").permitAll().and()
.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/h2console/**").permitAll();
http.csrf().disable();
http.headers().frameOptions().disable();


}
}

I added spring-boot-starter-security to my pom, but I’m trying to access the h2-console on localhost and it’s failing because I need to log in.

In my application.xml I have:

spring.security.user.name=user
spring.security.user.password=password

But I don’t want to type this in. How do I disable it? I created a new class in the root of my project and it seemed to work.

package com.example.demo;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.EnableWebSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter;

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter{
@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception{
http.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/").permitAll();
}
}
