How to - Spring IoC and HttpClient 4.3.1 CloseableHttpClient?

问题

I'd like to have Spring IoC configure a CloseableHttpClient object and inject it into my class so that customization of its configuration can be done via XML.

From what I can see, HttpClient seems to resist this pattern quite forcibly. They want you to do things like

CloseableHttpClient chc =
    HttpClients.custom().set<thing that should be a property>().build();

Ick.

Is there not some mechanism for making a singleton CloseableHttpClient bean that I can then use?

回答1:

This seems to work for me:

<bean id="requestConfigBuilder" class="org.apache.http.client.config.RequestConfig"
    factory-method="custom">
    <property name="socketTimeout" value="${socketTimeoutInMillis}" /> 
    <property name="connectTimeout" value="${connectionTimeoutInMillis}" /> 
</bean>

<bean id="requestConfig" factory-bean="requestConfigBuilder" factory-method="build" />

<bean id="httpClientBuilder" class="org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClientBuilder"
    factory-method="create">
    <property name="defaultRequestConfig" ref="requestConfig" />
</bean>

<bean id="httpClient" factory-bean="httpClientBuilder" factory-method="build" />

That gives me a CloseableHttpClient in the "httpClient" bean, with the socket and connection timeouts configured. You should be able to add more properties to either the requestConfigBuilder or the httpClientBuilder.

With Java config, this is as simple as

@Bean
public CloseableHttpClient httpClient() {
    HttpClientBuilder builder = HttpClientBuilder.create();
    builder.setEverything(everything); // configure it
    CloseableHttpClient httpClient = builder.build();
}

With XML config, it's a little more complex. You can create your own FactoryBean implementation, say CloseableHttpClientFactoryBean, which delegates all the calls to a HttpClientBuilder and calls build() inside getObject().

public class CloseableHttpClientFactoryBean implements FactoryBean<CloseableHttpClient> {
    private HttpClientBuilder builder;
    public CloseableHttpClientFactoryBean() {
        builder = HttpClientBuilder.create();
    }

    ... // all the setters
    // for example
    public void setEverything(Everything everything) {
        // delegate
        builder.setEverything(everything);
    }

    public CloseableHttpClient getObject() {
        return builder.build();
    }
}

And the config

<bean name="httpClient" class="com.spring.http.clients.CloseableHttpClientFactoryBean">
    <property name="everything" ref="everything"/>
</bean>

You will need a setter method for each HttpClientBuilder method.

Note that if you don't need any custom configuration, you can use factory-method to get a default CloseableHttpClient

<bean name="httpClient" class="org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClients" factory-method="createDefault" >
</bean>
