If you're using Spring and want to register the providers programmatically based on the presence of @Path and @Provider annotation you can use the following technique

@Component
public class JerseyConfig extends ResourceConfig {

  @Autowired
  private ApplicationContext applicationContext;

  @PostConstruct
  public init() {

    applicationContext.getBeansWithAnnotation(Path.class).values().forEach(
      component -> register(component.getClass())
    );
    applicationContext.getBeansWithAnnotation(Provider.class).values().forEach(
      this::register
    );
  }
}
