preparation
We know that the secret of SpringBoot's automatic assembly is in the spring.factories file under the org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure package, and the principle of embedding Tomcat is a configuration class loaded in this file: org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.servlet.servletwebserverfactory autoconfiguration
@Configuration
@AutoConfigureOrder(Ordered.HIGHEST_PRECEDENCE)
@ConditionalOnClass(ServletRequest.class)
@ConditionalOnWebApplication(type = Type.SERVLET)
@EnableConfigurationProperties(ServerProperties.class)
@Import({ ServletWebServerFactoryAutoConfiguration.BeanPostProcessorsRegistrar.class,
ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration.EmbeddedTomcat.class,
ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration.EmbeddedJetty.class,
ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration.EmbeddedUndertow.class })
public class ServletWebServerFactoryAutoConfiguration {
@Bean
public ServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer servletWebServerFactoryCustomizer(
ServerProperties serverProperties) {
return new ServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer(serverProperties);
}
@Bean
@ConditionalOnClass(name = "org.apache.catalina.startup.Tomcat")
public TomcatServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer tomcatServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer(
ServerProperties serverProperties) {
return new TomcatServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer(serverProperties);
}
/**
* Registers a {@link WebServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor}. Registered via
* {@link ImportBeanDefinitionRegistrar} for early registration.
*/
public static class BeanPostProcessorsRegistrar
implements ImportBeanDefinitionRegistrar, BeanFactoryAware {
private ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory;
@Override
public void setBeanFactory(BeanFactory beanFactory) throws BeansException {
if (beanFactory instanceof ConfigurableListableBeanFactory) {
this.beanFactory = (ConfigurableListableBeanFactory) beanFactory;
}
}
@Override
public void registerBeanDefinitions(AnnotationMetadata importingClassMetadata,
BeanDefinitionRegistry registry) {
if (this.beanFactory == null) {
return;
}
registerSyntheticBeanIfMissing(registry,
"webServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor",
WebServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor.class);
registerSyntheticBeanIfMissing(registry,
"errorPageRegistrarBeanPostProcessor",
ErrorPageRegistrarBeanPostProcessor.class);
}
private void registerSyntheticBeanIfMissing(BeanDefinitionRegistry registry,
String name, Class<?> beanClass) {
if (ObjectUtils.isEmpty(
this.beanFactory.getBeanNamesForType(beanClass, true, false))) {
RootBeanDefinition beanDefinition = new RootBeanDefinition(beanClass);
beanDefinition.setSynthetic(true);
registry.registerBeanDefinition(name, beanDefinition);
}
}
}
}
First take a look at the notes above
- @The AutoConfigureOrder annotation determines the loading order of the configuration class. When the value in the annotation is smaller, it is loaded first, and ordered.highest_ The value of precision is Integer.MIN_VALUE, that is, this class must be the first batch loaded
- @ConditionalOnXXX has been mentioned countless times in previous articles, so I won't elaborate
- @EnableConfigurationProperties turns on the property value configuration of the ServerProperties class. This class contains the configuration of Web services
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "server", ignoreUnknownFields = true)
public class ServerProperties {
private Integer port;
private InetAddress address;
@NestedConfigurationProperty
private final ErrorProperties error = new ErrorProperties();
private Boolean useForwardHeaders;
private String serverHeader;
private int maxHttpHeaderSize = 0; // bytes
private Duration connectionTimeout;
@NestedConfigurationProperty
private Ssl ssl;
@NestedConfigurationProperty
private final Compression compression = new Compression();
@NestedConfigurationProperty
private final Http2 http2 = new Http2();
private final Servlet servlet = new Servlet();
private final Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat();
private final Jetty jetty = new Jetty();
private final Undertow undertow = new Undertow();
}
There are too many codes in this class, so we won't post them one by one here. The server.xxx we usually configure in application.properties is the property in this class
- @Import introduces four classes. Let's see what they are
- BeanPostProcessorsRegistrar
public static class BeanPostProcessorsRegistrar
implements ImportBeanDefinitionRegistrar, BeanFactoryAware {
@Override
public void registerBeanDefinitions(AnnotationMetadata importingClassMetadata,
BeanDefinitionRegistry registry) {
if (this.beanFactory == null) {
return;
}
registerSyntheticBeanIfMissing(registry,
"webServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor",
WebServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor.class);
registerSyntheticBeanIfMissing(registry,
"errorPageRegistrarBeanPostProcessor",
ErrorPageRegistrarBeanPostProcessor.class);
}
private void registerSyntheticBeanIfMissing(BeanDefinitionRegistry registry,
String name, Class<?> beanClass) {
if (ObjectUtils.isEmpty(
this.beanFactory.getBeanNamesForType(beanClass, true, false))) {
RootBeanDefinition beanDefinition = new RootBeanDefinition(beanClass);
beanDefinition.setSynthetic(true);
registry.registerBeanDefinition(name, beanDefinition);
}
}
}
This class registers two beans: webserverfactorycustomizer beanpostprocessor and errorpageregisterrbeanpostprocessor. The functions of these two beans will be described in detail later
- EmbeddedTomcat
@Configuration
@ConditionalOnClass({ Servlet.class, Tomcat.class, UpgradeProtocol.class })
@ConditionalOnMissingBean(value = ServletWebServerFactory.class, search = SearchStrategy.CURRENT)
public static class EmbeddedTomcat {
@Bean
public TomcatServletWebServerFactory tomcatServletWebServerFactory() {
return new TomcatServletWebServerFactory();
}
}
This class will add a tomcatservletwebserverfactory bean when there is a Tomcat related jar package
The other two believe everyone knows what's going on
- In addition to these, this class also injects two classes, ServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer and Tomcat ServletWebServerFactoryCustomizer
Now the preparatory work has been done. Let's take a look at how Tomcat starts
start-up
Start the onRefresh method of the entry in the servletwebserver ApplicationContext
protected void onRefresh() {
super.onRefresh();
try {
createWebServer();
}
catch (Throwable ex) {
throw new ApplicationContextException("Unable to start web server", ex);
}
}
The startup of Tomcat is in the createWebServer method
private void createWebServer() {
WebServer webServer = this.webServer;
ServletContext servletContext = getServletContext();
//Both objects are empty at the first access
if (webServer == null && servletContext == null) {
ServletWebServerFactory factory = getWebServerFactory();
this.webServer = factory.getWebServer(getSelfInitializer());
}
else if (servletContext != null) {
try {
getSelfInitializer().onStartup(servletContext);
}
catch (ServletException ex) {
throw new ApplicationContextException("Cannot initialize servlet context",
ex);
}
}
initPropertySources();
}
First, take a look at getWebServerFactory
protected ServletWebServerFactory getWebServerFactory() {
// The beanname obtained here is the tomcatservlet webserverfactory registered above
String[] beanNames = getBeanFactory()
.getBeanNamesForType(ServletWebServerFactory.class);
if (beanNames.length == 0) {
throw new ApplicationContextException(
"Unable to start ServletWebServerApplicationContext due to missing "
+ "ServletWebServerFactory bean.");
}
if (beanNames.length > 1) {
throw new ApplicationContextException(
"Unable to start ServletWebServerApplicationContext due to multiple "
+ "ServletWebServerFactory beans : "
+ StringUtils.arrayToCommaDelimitedString(beanNames));
}
return getBeanFactory().getBean(beanNames[0], ServletWebServerFactory.class);
}
The bean registered in the preparation environment now comes out. Note that a post processor embeddedservletcontainercustomizerbeanpost processor is also registered above. The postProcessBeforeInitialization method of the post processor will be executed when obtaining the bean tomcatservletwebserverfactory
public Object postProcessBeforeInitialization(Object bean, String beanName)
throws BeansException {
if (bean instanceof WebServerFactory) {
postProcessBeforeInitialization((WebServerFactory) bean);
}
return bean;
}
private void postProcessBeforeInitialization(WebServerFactory webServerFactory) {
LambdaSafe
.callbacks(WebServerFactoryCustomizer.class, getCustomizers(),
webServerFactory)
.withLogger(WebServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor.class)
.invoke((customizer) -> customizer.customize(webServerFactory));
}
private Collection<WebServerFactoryCustomizer<?>> getCustomizers() {
if (this.customizers == null) {
// Look up does not include the parent context
this.customizers = new ArrayList<>(getWebServerFactoryCustomizerBeans());
this.customizers.sort(AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.INSTANCE);
this.customizers = Collections.unmodifiableList(this.customizers);
}
return this.customizers;
}
@SuppressWarnings({ "unchecked", "rawtypes" })
private Collection<WebServerFactoryCustomizer<?>> getWebServerFactoryCustomizerBeans() {
return (Collection) this.beanFactory
.getBeansOfType(WebServerFactoryCustomizer.class, false, false).values();
}
The function of this processor is to obtain all customizators and then execute the method of the customizator
Then look down
You can start Tomcat at this time
public WebServer getWebServer(ServletContextInitializer... initializers) {
Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat();
File baseDir = (this.baseDirectory != null ? this.baseDirectory
: createTempDir("tomcat"));
tomcat.setBaseDir(baseDir.getAbsolutePath());
Connector connector = new Connector(this.protocol);
tomcat.getService().addConnector(connector);
customizeConnector(connector);
tomcat.setConnector(connector);
tomcat.getHost().setAutoDeploy(false);
configureEngine(tomcat.getEngine());
for (Connector additionalConnector : this.additionalTomcatConnectors) {
tomcat.getService().addConnector(additionalConnector);
}
prepareContext(tomcat.getHost(), initializers);
return getTomcatWebServer(tomcat);
}
protected TomcatWebServer getTomcatWebServer(Tomcat tomcat) {
return new TomcatWebServer(tomcat, getPort() >= 0);
}
public TomcatWebServer(Tomcat tomcat, boolean autoStart) {
Assert.notNull(tomcat, "Tomcat Server must not be null");
this.tomcat = tomcat;
this.autoStart = autoStart;
initialize();
}
private void initialize() throws WebServerException {
TomcatWebServer.logger.info("Tomcat initialized with port(s): " + getPortsDescription(false));
synchronized (this.monitor) {
try {
addInstanceIdToEngineName();
Context context = findContext();
context.addLifecycleListener((event) -> {
if (context.equals(event.getSource())
&& Lifecycle.START_EVENT.equals(event.getType())) {
// Remove service connectors so that protocol binding doesn't
// happen when the service is started.
removeServiceConnectors();
}
});
// Start the server to trigger initialization listeners
this.tomcat.start();
// We can re-throw failure exception directly in the main thread
rethrowDeferredStartupExceptions();
try {
ContextBindings.bindClassLoader(context, context.getNamingToken(),
getClass().getClassLoader());
}
catch (NamingException ex) {
// Naming is not enabled. Continue
}
// Unlike Jetty, all Tomcat threads are daemon threads. We create a
// blocking non-daemon to stop immediate shutdown
startDaemonAwaitThread();
}
catch (Exception ex) {
throw new WebServerException("Unable to start embedded Tomcat", ex);
}
}
}
