Code Block
languagejava
import org.apache.cxf.Bus;
import org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.JAXRSServerFactoryBean;
import org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
import org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.EmbeddedServletContainerFactory;
import org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.ServletRegistrationBean;
import org.springframework.boot.context.web.SpringBootServletInitializer;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ImportResource;

@Configuration
@EnableAutoConfiguration
@ImportResource({ "classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml" })
public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer {

    @Autowired
    private ApplicationContext applicationContext;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }

    // Replaces the need for web.xml
    @Bean
    public ServletRegistrationBean servletRegistrationBean(ApplicationContext context) {
        return new ServletRegistrationBean(new CXFServlet(), "/api/*");
    }

    @Bean
    public Server helloRestService() {
        Bus bus = (Bus) applicationContext.getBean(Bus.DEFAULT_BUS_ID);
        Object implementor = new HelloWorldRestImpl();
        JAXRSServerFactoryBean endpoint = new EndpointImpl(bus, implementor);
        endpoint.setDdddress("/hello");
        return endpoint.create();
    }

    // Used when deploying to a standalone servlet container, i.e. tomcat
    @Override
    protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
        return application.sources(Application.class);
    }

}

Please also check the classes in this package.

 

Configuring JAX-RS endpoints programmatically without Spring

Note that even though no Spring is explicitly used in the previous section, it is still used by default to have various CXF components registered with the bus such as transport factories. If no Spring libraries are available on the classpath then please follow the following example :

...

Please see CXF SpringBoot documentation. 

Please see JAX-RS Spring Boot and JAX-RS Spring Boot Scan demos.

Please see JAXRSClientSpringBoot documentation on how CXF JAX-RS Clients can be used in a SpringBoot Application.

sf.setResourceClasses(CustomerService.class);
sf.setResourceProvider(CustomerService.class, new SingletonResourceProvider(new CustomerService()));
sf.setAddress("http://localhost:9000/");
BindingFactoryManager manager = sf.getBus().getExtension(BindingFactoryManager.class);
JAXRSBindingFactory factory = new JAXRSBindingFactory();
factory.setBus(sf.getBus());
manager.registerBindingFactory(JAXRSBindingFactory.JAXRS_BINDING_ID, factory);
sf.create();

Blueprint Web

This section describes how CXF JAX-RS endpoints can be bootstrapped with CXFBlueprintServlet and Blueprint contexts.

This approach is recommended for developers building CXF JAX-RS endpoints to be deployed in OSGI and which will do RequestDispatcher-based forwards.

Additionally it allows to reuse the same Blueprint contexts between OSGI and non-OSGI deployments.

Both options below work with CXF 3.1.3:

Code Block
xml
xml
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
  <artifactId>cxf-rt-frontend-jaxrs</artifactId>
  <version>3.1.3</version>
</dependency>

 

Maven dependencies

OSGI

Code Block
xml
xml
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.aries.blueprint</groupId>
  <artifactId>org.apache.aries.blueprint.webosgi</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.1</version>
</dependency>

In OSGI (Karaf) one should also install a 'war' feature.

Servlet Container

xml
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.aries.blueprint</groupId>
  <artifactId>org.apache.aries.blueprint.web</artifactId>
  <version>1.1.1</version>

Common example

 

This web.xml shows how to setup CXFBlueprintServlet which processes this Blueprint context. It works exactly the same way in OSGI and non-OSGI environments.

Prototype beans will have their postconstruct and predestroy method called before a resource method is invoked and immediately after the invocation has returned but before the response has actually been serialized. You can indicate that the predestroy method has to be called after the request has completely gone out of scope (that is after the response body if any has been written to the output stream) by adding an "org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.service.scope" property with the value set to "request".

Auto-discovery of root resources and providers

...

Please see this page for more information.

Starting from CXF 3.1.0: JaxrsServletContextInitializer will be chiiped org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.servlet.sci.JaxrsServletContainerInitializer implementing javax.servlet.ServletContainerInitializer is shipped in a cxf-rt-rs-http-sc sci module.

Adding this module This will support  no-web.xml and other JAX-RS deployments depending on the container auto-discovery mechanism as described in a 2.3.2 section of JSR-339 (JAX-RS 2.0).
