A Demo of Dropwizard/Spring Integration

A Demo of Dropwizard/Spring Integration

Why would you want to integrate Dropwizard and Spring?

• I recommend using Spring Boot. This is for just in case you do not have that option, and you still want to integrate Spring framework into your Dropwizard project.
• JavaConfig makes the integration much simpler.
• One good thing of this integration is that there is only one configuration file.

Tech Stack

• Dropwizard (and then all the libraries that it brings)
• Spring
• jose4j (JWT authentication)
• Swagger UI (REST API Test Console. It is powerful, but its UI design is kind of ugly from a modern point of view ..)

How to run it?

• Run the command: mvn clean package
• Run another command: java -jar target/dw-spring-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar server conf/dw.yml
• Open following URL in a browser: http://localhost:7072/dw/
• Expand the echo section, and then verify that you can access the echo endpoint without a correct api key
• Expand the upperEcho section, and then verify that you cannot access the upperEcho endpoint without a correct api key
• Enter 'c001' as the api key in the upper-right text field, and then verify that you can access the upperEcho endpoint now

Notes

• I am thinking of implement an OpenID Connect server (using MITREid Connect maybe :)
