Answer 1

You need to have some sort of a password encoder, but

withDefaultPasswordEncoder()

is deprecated and no more suitable for production. Use this instead:

PasswordEncoder encoder =
     PasswordEncoderFactories.createDelegatingPasswordEncoder();

...

UserDetails user = User.withUsername("someusername")
                       .password(encoder.encode("somepassword"))
                       .roles("USER").build();
