从JaxRS迁移到Spring Rest

Question

I am trying to migrate from Jax RS to Spring Rest, I am not sure how to add base address of URL for Spring rest.

I tried adding <mvc:annotation-driven /> , but did not help

<jaxrs:server address="/search-service">
    <jaxrs:serviceBeans>
        ...all service classes
    </jaxrs:serviceBeans>
    <jaxrs:providers>
        <ref bean="wadlGenerator"/>
        <ref bean="cors-filter"/>
        <ref bean="soaJsonJaxbProvider"/>
        <ref bean="exceptionMapper"/>
        <ref bean="searchContextProvider"/>
    </jaxrs:providers>
</jaxrs:server>

Here is my Controller:

@RestController
@RequestMapping(value = "/search", produces=org.springframework.http.MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE,
            consumes=org.springframework.http.MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
public class SearchService {
@PostMapping
public ServiceResponse<searchDTO> search(@RequestHeader HttpHeaders headers, ServiceRequest<searchDTO> request) {
....method
}

How to add Spring rest instead of jaxrs:server in beans.xml.

Answer 1

For spring to discover the annotated class, you need to add the annotation-driven tag and also component-scan :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans> <!-- add in all the namespace declarations you need-->
    <context:component-scan base-package="com.yourpackage" />
    <mvc:annotation-driven />
</beans>

The alternative is to use AnnotationConfigApplicationContext when you load the spring context, which is a fully java / annotation configured setup instead of the XML config.

For the gory details, refer to the spring docs https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/beans.html#beans-factory-metadata :
