1. What are Spring Boot Profiles? Spring Boot profiles allow you to group configuration settings for different environments and activate the one you need at runtime. This helps manage multiple environments without changing code. For example: dev → development environment settings test → testing environment settings prod → production environment settings 2. How to…
1. Add Dependencies In your pom.xml (for Maven), include Spring Boot and Springdoc OpenAPI: <dependencies> <!-- Spring Boot Web --> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId> </dependency> <!-- Springdoc OpenAPI --> <dependency> <groupId>org.springdoc</groupId> <artifactId>springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui</artifactId> <version>2.2.0</version> </dependency> <!-- Optional: Lombok for cleaner code --> <dependency> <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId> <artifactId>lombok</artifactId> <optional>true</optional> </dependency> </dependencies> <dependencies> <!-- Spring Boot Web --> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>…
📌 What is SOAP Web Service? SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) is a protocol for exchanging structured information in web services. In Spring Boot, you can create SOAP web services using Spring Web Services (Spring-WS). 🚀 Example: Spring Boot SOAP Web Service 1. Add Dependencies (pom.xml) For a Maven project, add: <dependencies> <!-- Spring…
1. Bean Creation Life Cycle in Spring A Spring Bean is an object managed by the Spring IoC container. Its lifecycle goes through several stages: Lifecycle Steps: Instantiation – Spring creates the bean (via constructor or factory method). Populate Properties – Dependencies are injected (setter/field/constructor injection). BeanNameAware / BeanFactoryAware – If implemented, Spring calls…
In Spring Framework, a bean scope defines the lifecycle and visibility of a bean in the Spring IoC container—basically how and when the bean is created and how many instances exist. Common Bean Scopes in Spring 1. Singleton (default) Only one instance of the bean is created per Spring IoC container. All requests for…
In Spring Boot, a bean is simply an object managed by the Spring IoC (Inversion of Control) container. Beans are the backbone of any Spring-based application. Spring automatically creates, wires, and manages their lifecycle, so you don’t need to manually instantiate or manage dependencies. 🔑 Ways to Define Beans in Spring Boot 1. Using…
These annotations allow beans to be created only if certain conditions are met. Here’s a breakdown with examples: 1. Using @Conditional You can define your own condition by implementing Condition. import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Conditional; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Condition; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ConditionContext; import org.springframework.core.type.AnnotatedTypeMetadata; class MyCondition implements Condition { @Override public boolean matches(ConditionContext context, AnnotatedTypeMetadata metadata)…
Spring Boot web applications rely heavily on annotations to configure controllers, handle requests, and define responses.Here’s a breakdown of the most commonly used Spring Web annotations with simple examples: 1. @RestController Combines @Controller and @ResponseBody. Marks a class as a web controller that directly returns data (usually JSON). import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping; @RestController public…
🔹 What is Dependency Injection? Dependency Injection (DI) is a design pattern where the Spring framework manages the creation and injection of objects (dependencies) into a class instead of the class creating them itself.This helps achieve loose coupling and makes the code more maintainable and testable. In Spring Boot, DI can be achieved mainly…
1. What is a Spring Boot Starter? A Spring Boot Starter is a dependency that simplifies adding libraries and configurations to your Spring Boot project.Instead of manually adding multiple dependencies and configurations, you can include a starter, and it will pull all necessary dependencies for you. For example: spring-boot-starter-web → for building REST APIs…
