:rocket: Spring Boot 2.2.2 with Multiple DataSource for Postgres Data Replication

Spring Boot 2 with Multiple DataSource

There are times that even having the best DataBase (PostgresSql, Oracle, MySql, .. ) Tuning can not be as help-full as Application Level separating Read and Writes

Spring Boot 2.2.2 with Multiple DataSource

Postgres Setup

For This Demo you need 2.2.2 separate Postgres DataBase where one as Master and the other re one as a Replica.

for simplicity just run: docker-compose up --force-recreate

the docker-compose.yml is already in the project which contains 2 PostgresSql in 2 different ports, with demo DataBase

you can always uninstall it as: docker-compose down if you needed to.

Spring Boot Setup

From https://start.spring.io/ select web, data-jpa, lombok, postgresDriver Or Select the following share link: Spring Initializr Initializr generates spring boot project with just what you need to start quickly!start.spring.io

Once you Generate and download the zip file, you should have similar POM file as:

<dependencies>

   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
   </dependency>

   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>
   </dependency>

   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-boot-configuration-processor</artifactId>
   </dependency>

   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
      <artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
      <optional>true</optional>
   </dependency>

   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
      <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
      <scope>runtime</scope>
   </dependency>

   
</dependencies>

for this demo I use HikariDataSource as a default connection pool library by Spring Boot 2.2.2 we need to have 2 separate DataSource and EntityManager one for the Writes(Master/Primary) and one for Reads(Slave/Secondary).

application.yml
spring:
  datasource-write:
    driver-class-name: org.postgresql.Driver
    jdbc-url: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/demo
    username: 'postgres_user_for_db_write'
    password: 'you_password'
    platform: postgresql
    hikari:
      idle-timeout: 10000
      maximum-pool-size: 10
      minimum-idle: 5
      pool-name: WriteHikariPool

  datasource-read:
    driver-class-name: org.postgresql.Driver
    jdbc-url: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5433/demo
    username: 'postgres_user_for_db_read'
    password: 'you_password'
    platform: postgresql
    hikari:
      idle-timeout: 10000
      maximum-pool-size: 10
      minimum-idle: 5
      pool-name: ReadHikariPool

as you see I have 2 data-source as: datasource-write and datasource-read with their own credentials.

DataSource Configurations for WriteDB:

@Configuration
@ConfigurationProperties("spring.datasource-write")
@EnableTransactionManagement
@EnableJpaRepositories(
        entityManagerFactoryRef = "entityManagerFactoryWrite",
        transactionManagerRef = "transactionManagerWrite",
        basePackages = {"com.ehsaniara.multidatasource.repository.writeRepository"}
)
public class DataSourceConfigWrite extends HikariConfig {

    public final static String PERSISTENCE_UNIT_NAME = "write";

    @Bean
    public HikariDataSource dataSourceWrite() {
        return new HikariDataSource(this);
    }

    @Bean
    public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactoryWrite(
            final HikariDataSource dataSourceWrite) {

        return new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean() {{
            setDataSource(dataSourceWrite);
            setPersistenceProviderClass(HibernatePersistenceProvider.class);
            setPersistenceUnitName(PERSISTENCE_UNIT_NAME);
            setPackagesToScan(MODEL_PACKAGE);
            setJpaProperties(JPA_PROPERTIES);
        }};
    }

    @Bean
    public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManagerWrite(EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactoryWrite) {
        return new JpaTransactionManager(entityManagerFactoryWrite);
    }
}

DataSource Configurations for ReadDB:

@Configuration
@ConfigurationProperties("spring.datasource-read")
@EnableTransactionManagement
@EnableJpaRepositories(
        entityManagerFactoryRef = "entityManagerFactoryRead",
        transactionManagerRef = "transactionManagerRead",
        basePackages = {"com.ehsaniara.multidatasource.repository.readRepository"}
)
public class DataSourceConfigRead extends HikariConfig {

    public final static String PERSISTENCE_UNIT_NAME = "read";


    @Bean
    public HikariDataSource dataSourceRead() {
        return new HikariDataSource(this);
    }

    @Bean
    public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactoryRead(
            final HikariDataSource dataSourceRead) {

        return new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean() {{
            setDataSource(dataSourceRead);
            setPersistenceProviderClass(HibernatePersistenceProvider.class);
            setPersistenceUnitName(PERSISTENCE_UNIT_NAME);
            setPackagesToScan(MODEL_PACKAGE);
            setJpaProperties(JPA_PROPERTIES);
        }};
    }

    @Bean
    public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManagerRead(EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactoryRead) {
        return new JpaTransactionManager(entityManagerFactoryRead);
    }
}

Read and Write repositories should be in a separated packages :

• Write: com.ehsaniara.multidatasource.repository.writeRepository

• Read: com.ehsaniara.multidatasource.repository.readRepository

you also need to set:

public final static String MODEL_PACKAGE = "com.ehsaniara.multidatasource.model";

public final static Properties JPA_PROPERTIES = new Properties() {{
    put("hibernate.dialect", "org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQL10Dialect");
    put("hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto", "update");
    put("hibernate.ddl-auto", "update");
    put("show-sql", "true");
}};

and the actual logic are in the service layer:

@Service
public class CustomerServiceImpl implements CustomerService {

    private final CustomerReadRepository customerReadRepository;
    private final CustomerWriteRepository customerWriteRepository;

    public CustomerServiceImpl(CustomerReadRepository customerReadRepository, CustomerWriteRepository customerWriteRepository) {
        this.customerReadRepository = customerReadRepository;
        this.customerWriteRepository = customerWriteRepository;
    }

    public Optional<Customer> getCustomer(Long id) {
        return customerReadRepository.findById(id);
    }

    public Customer createCustomer(Customer customer) {

        Assert.notNull(customer, "Invalid customer");
        Assert.isNull(customer.getId(), "customer id should be null");
        Assert.notNull(customer.getName(), "Invalid customer name");

        return customerWriteRepository.save(customer);
    }

    public Customer updateCustomer(Customer customer) {

        Assert.notNull(customer, "Invalid customer");
        Assert.notNull(customer.getId(), "Invalid customer id");

        return customerWriteRepository.save(customer);
    }
}

Now if run this line you create customer in DB1:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"name":"Jay"}'   http://localhost:8080/customer

OR

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" --request PUT --data '{"id":1 , "name":"Jay ehsaniara"}'   http://localhost:8080/customer

But if you run this line you getting data from DB2:

 curl --request GET  http://localhost:8080/customer/1

you need to insert customer manually in DB2 since it has no pre customer. and we haven't setup Postgres Replication yet
