嵌入式fladdoodle MongoDB进程不会停止

Question

I am using an flapdoodle embedded MongoDB instance in my application.

The embedded MongoDB starts up and works as expected, but the process of the embedded instance won't stop when the application is being stopped or the integration tests are over.

I am using the class below to manage the state of the embedded MongoDB instance. Is there something missing to properly stop the embedded MongoDB? Can we start the process of the embedded MongoDB instance as a daemon (so it won't keep the running, even when the application is being stoppped)?

I had the same issue when using flapdoodle embedded MongoDB for development and while running the Spring application via gradle bootRun . After stopping the process, the MongoDB server survived and with more and more runs instances piled up and also the data within the MongoDB stayed.

After quite some searching and trying out things I was able to solve the issue based on the answers provided in https://github.com/flapdoodle-oss/de.flapdoodle.embed.mongo/issues/212

My MongoDB Configuration Class looks quite similar and the key to the solution was to wait for MongodProcess mongod to properly stop through checking with mongod.isProcessRunning() . The surrounding while loop is a bit hacky, but it works for me:

@Configuration
@Profile("dev")
public class EmbeddedMongoConfig {

    Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(EmbeddedMongoConfig.class);

    private static final String CONNECTION_STRING = "mongodb://%s:%d";
    private static final String HOST = "localhost";
    private static final int PORT = 27017;


    private MongodExecutable mongodExecutable;
    private MongodProcess mongod;
    private MongoClient client;

    @Bean
    public MongoTemplate mongoTemplate() throws Exception {

        ImmutableMongodConfig mongoDbConfig = MongodConfig.builder()
                .version(Version.Main.PRODUCTION)
                .net(new Net(HOST, PORT, Network.localhostIsIPv6()))
                .build();

        MongodStarter starter = MongodStarter.getDefaultInstance();

        mongodExecutable = starter.prepare(mongoDbConfig);
        mongod = mongodExecutable.start();
        client = MongoClients.create(String.format(CONNECTION_STRING, HOST, PORT));

        return new MongoTemplate( client, "sampledatabase");
    }


    /*
     * solution found here: https://github.com/flapdoodle-oss/de.flapdoodle.embed.mongo/issues/212
     */
    @PreDestroy
    public void shutdownGracefully() {
        if (client != null)
            client.close();
        if (mongod != null)
            try {
                mongod.stop();
            } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
                logger.error("Can't stop mongod", e);
            }
        if (mongod != null) {
            int limit = 5;
            int counter = 0;
            while (mongod.isProcessRunning() && counter < limit) {
                try {
                    counter++;
                    Thread.sleep(2000);
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    break;
                }
            }
        }
        if (mongodExecutable != null) {
            try {
                mongodExecutable.stop();
            } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
                logger.error("Can't stop mongodExecutable", e);
            }
        }
    }
}

Maybe it can still help someone else who stumbles upon the same issue.
