Let’s say we would like to increase the limit t 10MB …​ Broker Configuration Apply the new limit either by modifying the server.properties like this…​ max.message.bytes=10485760 or apply it to a specific topic using kafka-configs.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 \ --entity-type topics \ --entity-name thetopic \ --alter \ --add-config max.message.bytes=10485760 Producer Configuration for Spring Boot We simply need to add the following line to our application.properties: spring.kafka.producer.properties.max.request.size=spring.kafka.producer.properties.max.request.size The following proof-of-concept demonstrates that without the property, sending a large message fails, with the property it succeeds: ...

Sometimes it is nice to set up an embedded Kafka broker for testing without the need to have Docker installed (e.g. for using testcontainers-lib). The following snippet shows, how to set up an embedded Kafka instance for testing for a Spring Boot project. Setup Using Maven, this is our Spring Boot project with dependencies needed: pom.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <parent> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>(1) <version>2.6.4</version> <relativePath/> <!-- lookup parent from repository --> </parent> <groupId>com.hascode.tutorial</groupId> <artifactId>kafka-testing</artifactId> <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <properties> <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding> <project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding> <java.version>17</java.version> <maven.compiler.source>${java.version}</maven.compiler.source> <maven.compiler.target>${java.version}</maven.compiler.target> <kafka.version>3.1.0</kafka.version>(2) </properties> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.kafka</groupId> <artifactId>spring-kafka</artifactId>(3) </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.kafka</groupId> <artifactId>spring-kafka-test</artifactId>(4) <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency>(5) <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId> <artifactId>junit-jupiter-api</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId> <artifactId>junit-jupiter-engine</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.junit.platform</groupId> <artifactId>junit-platform-launcher</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> [..] </project> ...

Sometimes when accessing SOAP APIs, our SOAP client needs to sign the request. How this can be achieved using Spring Boot’s WebserviceTemplate within a few steps is the scope of this short article. This snippet only deals with the client side not with the security configuration on the server side. Also it assumes, that you have already set up your keystore/truststore and that you’re loading these with your Spring Boot application’s startup without errors. ...

Create a custom converter This class converts the well known log levels to a custom format CustomLogLevelConverter.java package com.hascode; public class CustomLogLevelConverter extends ClassicConverter { @Override public String convert(ILoggingEvent event) { switch (event.getLevel().toInt()) { case Level.ERROR_INT: return "ERROR!!!"; case Level.WARN_INT: return "WARN!!"; case Level.INFO_INT: return "INFO!"; case Level.TRACE_INT: return "DEBUG"; default: return event.getLevel().toString(); } } } Register the converter The following Logback config includes some defaults and registers our custom converter. ...

Communicating with identity and access management systems is a common task for many web-applications exposing secured resources. Keycloak is an open source software that provides not also such authorization services but also offers a lot of features from Single-Sign-On, Identity-Brokering, Social-Login, User-Federation, multiple client-adapters up to the administration console or support for protocols like OpenID, SAML, OAuth2, Kerberos and more. I will demonstrate how to integrate a Spring Boot web application with Keycloak and configure an authentication flow that requires a two-factor-authentication with user credentials and also one-time-passwords. ...

OAuth2 is a frequently used standard for authorization and with Spring Boot it is easy to set up authorization and resource server in no time. In the following short tutorial I’d like to demonstrate how to set up an OAuth2 authorization server as well as a connected and secured resource server within a few minutes using Java, Maven and Spring Boot. Figure 1. OAuth2 Flow with Spring Boot in Action...

Spring Boot allows us to create RESTful web-services with ease, Swagger specifies a format to describe the capabilities and operations of these services and with Swagger UI it is possible to explore our REST API with a nice graphical user interface in our browser. Springfox is a project that aims at creating automated JSON API documentation for API’s built with Spring and is used in the following tutorial to integrate Swagger into a sample application. ...

There is still the urban myth that using Spring IoC container without thousands lines of XML code isn’t possible – so today we’re taking a look at annotation based configuration with Spring 3 and of course we’re using Maven.. Setup your project Create a simple Maven project using mvn archetype:generate // or mvn archetype:create Add a lot of dependencies and reference them to the Spring version defined as a property in your pom.xml. A good reference on Spring 3 and Maven artifacts can be found at Springsource.com <properties> <org.springframework.version>3.0.0.RELEASE</org.springframework.version> </properties> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-expression</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context-support</artifactId> <version>${org.springframework.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId> <artifactId>com.springsource.org.aspectj.runtime</artifactId> <version>1.6.8.RELEASE</version> </dependency> </dependencies> ...
