spring 启动：如何动态设置 spring 属性

Question

There are so many properties which can be defined in application.properties of spring boot application.

But I want to pass properties to configure ssl to spring from inside the code.

server.ssl.enabled=true
# The format used for the keystore 
server.ssl.key-store-type=PKCS12
# The path to the keystore containing the certificate
server.ssl.key-store=keys/keystore.jks
# The password used to generate the certificate
server.ssl.key-store-password=changeit
# The alias mapped to the certificate
server.ssl.key-alias=tomcat

So as these will be spring defined properties to be used from application.properties. I just want to set them from the code based on some logic.

For non spring application, I still have some idea that they can be passed as application, session or context properties but I am not aware on how this works in spring.

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You need to define and register an ApplicationListener like this:

public class DynamicPropertiesListener implements ApplicationListener<ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent> {
  public void onApplicationEvent(ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent event) {
    ConfigurableEnvironment environment = event.getEnvironment();
    // modify the properties here, see the ConfigurableEnvironment javadoc
  }
}

Now register the listener. If you run the application with the main method:

SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(primarySources);
app.addListeners(new DynamicPropertiesListener());
app.run(args);

or, even better, create src\main\resources\META-INF\spring.factories file with this content:

org.springframework.context.ApplicationListener=x.y.DynamicPropertiesListener

Where xy is the package of your listener.

Since you know the properties to enable SSL in the spring boot app. You can pass these properties programmatically in your spring boot application like this:

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootTestApplication {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

//      SpringApplication.run(SpringBootTestApplication.class, args);

        Properties props = new Properties();
        props.put("server.ssl.key-store", "/home/ajit-soman/Desktop/test/keystore.p12");
        props.put("server.ssl.key-store-password", "123456");
        props.put("server.ssl.key-store-type", "PKCS12");
        props.put("server.ssl.key-alias", "tomcat");

        new SpringApplicationBuilder(SpringBootTestApplication.class)
            .properties(props).run(args);
    }
}

As you can see I have commented out this: SpringApplication.run(SpringBootTestApplication.class, args); and used SpringApplicationBuilder class to add properties to the app.

Now, these properties are defined in the program, You can apply condition and change property values based on your requirements.

In Spring Boot, you can read and edit propeties using System.getProperty(String key) and System.setProperty(String key, String value)

public static void main(String[] args) {

    // set properties
    System.setProperty("server.ssl.enabled", "true");
    System.setProperty("server.ssl.key-store-type", "PKCS12");
    System.setProperty("server.ssl.key-store", "keys/keystore.jks");
    System.setProperty("server.ssl.key-store-password", "changeit");
    System.setProperty("server.ssl.key-alias", "tomcat");

    // run
    SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
}

Note :

This will overwrite the static properties (not all but the overwritten ones).
