Dubbo Spring Boot Project

Dubbo Spring Boot Project makes it easy to create Spring Boot application using Dubbo as RPC Framework. What's more , it aslo provides production-ready features (e.g.security, health checks, externalized configuration).

Dubbo |ˈdʌbəʊ| is a high-performance, java based RPC framework open-sourced by Alibaba. As in many RPC systems, dubbo is based around the idea of defining a service, specifying the methods that can be called remotely with their parameters and return types. On the server side, the server implements this interface and runs a dubbo server to handle client calls. On the client side, the client has a stub that provides the same methods as the server.

Modules

There are some modules in Dubbo Spring Boot Project , let's take a look at below overview :

dubbo-spring-boot-parent

The main usage of dubbo-spring-boot-parent is providing dependencies management for other modules.

dubbo-spring-boot-autoconfigure

Since 2.5.7 , Dubbo totally supports Annotation-Driven , core Dubbo's components that are registered and initialized in Spring application context , including exterialized configuration features. However , those features need to trigger in manual configuration , e.g @DubboComponentScan , @EnableDubboConfig or @EnableDubbo.

dubbo-spring-boot-autoconfigure uses Spring Boot's @EnableAutoConfiguration which helps core Dubbo's components to be auto-configured by DubboAutoConfiguration. It reduces code, eliminates XML configuration.

If you used advanced IDE tools , for instance Jetbrains IDEA Ultimate develops Dubbo Spring Boot application, it will popup the tips of Dubbo Configuration Bindings in application.properties :

Case 1 - Single Bindings
Case 2 - Mutiple Bindings
