I have a Spring Boot application that uses Spring HATEOAS, it has @EnableEntityLinks enabled. The application has a mvc-controller containing a field @Autowired EntityLinks entityLinks.
I expected that @EnableEntityLinks would provide the EntityLinks bean (according to: Exposing and Managing Links with Spring HATEOAS), but I get a NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.hateoas.EntityLinks] found
The application is a test application, so it is quite small:
Application.java:
@ComponentScan
@EnableAutoConfiguration
@EnableEntityLinks
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}
}
CustomerController:
@Controller
@ExposesResourceFor(Customer.class)
@RequestMapping(value = "/customers", produces = "application/json")
public class CustomerController {
@Autowired
private EntityLinks entityLinks;
@RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET)
@ResponseBody
public ResponseEntity<List<Customer>> customers() {
return new ResponseEntity<List<Customer>>(HttpStatus.OK);
}
@RequestMapping(value="/{id}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
@ResponseBody
public ResponseEntity<Customer> customer(@PathVariable long id) {
Customer customer = new Customer(id, "Testi");
customer.add(this.entityLinks.linkToSingleResource(Customer.class, id));
return new ResponseEntity<Customer>(customer, HttpStatus.OK);
}
}
Customer.java
public class Customer extends ResourceSupport {
private Long id;
private String firstName;
public Customer(Long id, String firstName) {
this.id = id;
this.firstName = firstName;
}
public String getFirstName() {
return firstName;
}
public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
this.firstName = firstName;
}
}
