Login with Spring Security and jdbcTemplate

Question

How to login with Spring Security using jdbcTemplate?

@Bean
public JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate(){
    return new JdbcTemplate(dataSource());
}

^this is my JdbcTemplateBean

@Autowired
JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;
@Override
protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception{
    auth
            .jdbcAuthentication()
            .dataSource(jdbcTemplate)

this code gives me this error:

dataSource(javax.sql.DataSource) in JdbcUserDetailsManagerConfigurer cannot be applied to (org.springframework.jdbc.core.JdbcTemplate)

when I'm using data source its working

@Autowired
DataSource dataSource;

@Override
protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception{
    auth
            .jdbcAuthentication()
            .dataSource(dataSource)

But do I have to use DataSource or maybe there is a way to use JdbcTemplate?

Answer 1

Create config class, which will have method, which returns datasource. Fields from your application.properties you can get with @Value annotation or with Environment class.
