Quarkus Extension for Spring Cache API
While users are encouraged to use Quarkus annotations for caching, Quarkus nevertheless provides a compatibility layer for Spring Cache annotations in the form of the spring-cache extension.
This guide explains how a Quarkus application can leverage the well known Spring Cache annotations to enable application data caching for their Spring beans.
先决条件
完成这个指南，你需要:
-
大概15分钟
-
编辑器
-
JDK 17+ installed with
JAVA_HOMEconfigured appropriately -
Apache Maven 3.9.9
-
如果你愿意的话，还可以选择使用Quarkus CLI
-
如果你想构建原生可执行程序，可以选择安装Mandrel或者GraalVM，并正确配置(或者使用Docker在容器中进行构建)
-
Some familiarity with the Spring DI extension
创建Maven项目
首先，我们需要一个新的工程项目。用以下命令创建一个新项目：
For Windows users:
-
If using cmd, (don’t use backward slash
\and put everything on the same line) -
If using Powershell, wrap
-Dparameters in double quotes e.g."-DprojectArtifactId=spring-cache-quickstart"
This command generates a project which imports the spring-cache and spring-di extensions.
If you already have your Quarkus project configured, you can add the spring-cache extension
to your project by running the following command in your project base directory:
quarkus extension add spring-cache./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions='spring-cache'./gradlew addExtension --extensions='spring-cache'这会将以下内容添加到你的构建文件中:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-spring-cache</artifactId>
</dependency>implementation("io.quarkus:quarkus-spring-cache")Creating the REST API
Let’s start by creating a service which will simulate an extremely slow call to an external meteorological service.
Create src/main/java/org/acme/spring/cache/WeatherForecastService.java with the following content:
package org.acme.spring.cache;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
@Component
public class WeatherForecastService {
public String getDailyForecast(LocalDate date, String city) {
try {
Thread.sleep(2000L); (1)
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
return date.getDayOfWeek() + " will be " + getDailyResult(date.getDayOfMonth() % 4) + " in " + city;
}
private String getDailyResult(int dayOfMonthModuloFour) {
switch (dayOfMonthModuloFour) {
case 0:
return "sunny";
case 1:
return "cloudy";
case 2:
return "chilly";
case 3:
return "rainy";
default:
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}
}
}| 1 | This is where the slowness comes from. |
We also need a class which contains the response sent to the users when they ask for the next three days weather forecast.
Create src/main/java/org/acme/spring/cache/WeatherForecast.java this way:
package org.acme.spring.cache;
import java.util.List;
public class WeatherForecast {
private List<String> dailyForecasts;
private long executionTimeInMs;
public WeatherForecast(List<String> dailyForecasts, long executionTimeInMs) {
this.dailyForecasts = dailyForecasts;
this.executionTimeInMs = executionTimeInMs;
}
public List<String> getDailyForecasts() {
return dailyForecasts;
}
public long getExecutionTimeInMs() {
return executionTimeInMs;
}
}Now, we just need to create the src/main/java/org/acme/spring/cache/WeatherForecastResource.java class to use the service and response:
package org.acme.spring.cache;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import jakarta.inject.Inject;
import jakarta.ws.rs.GET;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Path;
import org.jboss.resteasy.reactive.RestQuery;
@Path("/weather")
public class WeatherForecastResource {
@Inject
WeatherForecastService service;
@GET
public WeatherForecast getForecast(@RestQuery String city, @RestQuery long daysInFuture) { (1)
long executionStart = System.currentTimeMillis();
List<String> dailyForecasts = Arrays.asList(
service.getDailyForecast(LocalDate.now().plusDays(daysInFuture), city),
service.getDailyForecast(LocalDate.now().plusDays(daysInFuture + 1L), city),
service.getDailyForecast(LocalDate.now().plusDays(daysInFuture + 2L), city)
);
long executionEnd = System.currentTimeMillis();
return new WeatherForecast(dailyForecasts, executionEnd - executionStart);
}
}| 1 | If the daysInFuture query parameter is omitted, the three days weather forecast will start from the current day.
Otherwise, it will start from the current day plus the daysInFuture value. |
We’re all done! Let’s check if everything’s working.
First, run the application using:
quarkus dev./mvnw quarkus:dev./gradlew --console=plain quarkusDevThen, call http://localhost:8080/weather?city=Raleigh from a browser.
After six long seconds, the application will answer something like this:
{"dailyForecasts":["MONDAY will be cloudy in Raleigh","TUESDAY will be chilly in Raleigh","WEDNESDAY will be rainy in Raleigh"],"executionTimeInMs":6001}|
The response content may vary depending on the day you run the code. |
You can try calling the same URL again and again, it will always take six seconds to answer.
Enabling the cache
Now that your Quarkus application is up and running, let’s tremendously improve its response time by caching the external meteorological service responses.
Update the WeatherForecastService class as follows:
package org.acme.cache;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import org.springframework.cache.annotation.Cacheable;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
@Component
public class WeatherForecastService {
@Cacheable("weather-cache") (1)
public String getDailyForecast(LocalDate date, String city) {
try {
Thread.sleep(2000L);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
return date.getDayOfWeek() + " will be " + getDailyResult(date.getDayOfMonth() % 4) + " in " + city;
}
private String getDailyResult(int dayOfMonthModuloFour) {
switch (dayOfMonthModuloFour) {
case 0:
return "sunny";
case 1:
return "cloudy";
case 2:
return "chilly";
case 3:
return "rainy";
default:
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}
}
}| 1 | We only added this annotation (and the associated import of course). |
Let’s try to call http://localhost:8080/weather?city=Raleigh again.
You’re still waiting a long time before receiving an answer.
This is normal since the server just restarted and the cache was empty.
Wait a second! The server restarted by itself after the WeatherForecastService update?
Yes, this is one of Quarkus amazing features for developers called live coding.
Now that the cache was loaded during the previous call, try calling the same URL.
This time, you should get a super fast answer with an executionTimeInMs value close to 0.
Let’s see what happens if we start from one day in the future using the http://localhost:8080/weather?city=Raleigh&daysInFuture=1 URL.
You should get an answer two seconds later since two of the requested days were already loaded in the cache.
You can also try calling the same URL with a different city and see the cache in action again. The first call will take six seconds and the following ones will be answered immediately.
Congratulations! You just added application data caching to your Quarkus application with a single line of code!
Supported features
Quarkus provides compatibility with the following Spring Cache annotations:
-
@Cacheable -
@CachePut -
@CacheEvict
Note that in this first version of the Spring Cache annotations extension, not all features of these annotations are supported (with proper errors being logged when trying to use an unsupported feature). However, additional features are planned for future releases.
