Context of class with listener - spring-rabbitmq, internals and injecting beans based on contain of message

Question

I am using spring-boot and spring-rabbitmq package. I have some config class and class representing client. This client class has one listener annotated with @RabbitListener . Everything is fine with my config and client - it does work.

However, I need to know some details about internals of this client class. Is something special set in a context ? I would like to be able to inject one of three available datasources (three beans). I mean that I would like to be able based on the first symbol of message (thanks to custom converter I can assume that this symbol happens) that actual datasource bean will be injected/used.

Any ideas? Maybe spring-rabbitmq modifies in some way context ?

Answer 1

The class with @RabbitListener must be declared as a bean in application context (either way - out of scope of the question). And it must be singleton - created only once object. Therefore all the injections must be done during its instantiation/initialization.

So, during that @RabbitListener method invocation you should just choose a proper DataSource , for example from the:

@Autowired
Map<String, DataSource> dataSources;

What you describe in your question isn't a behavior of Spring Dependency Injection Container.
