我们知道SpringBoot给我们带来了一个全新的开发体验,我们可以直接把web程序达成jar包,直接启动,这就得益于SpringBoot内置了容器,可以直接启动,本文将以Tomcat为例,来看看SpringBoot是如何启动Tomcat的,同时也将展开学习下Tomcat的源码,了解Tomcat的设计。
用过SpringBoot的人都知道,首先要写一个main方法来启动
@SpringBootApplication public class TomcatdebugApplication { public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(TomcatdebugApplication.class, args); } } 复制代码
我们直接点击run方法的源码,跟踪下来,发下最终 的 run
方法是调用 ConfigurableApplicationContext
方法,源码如下:
public ConfigurableApplicationContext run(String... args) { StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch(); stopWatch.start(); ConfigurableApplicationContext context = null; Collection<SpringBootExceptionReporter> exceptionReporters = new ArrayList<>(); //设置系统属性『java.awt.headless』,为true则启用headless模式支持 configureHeadlessProperty(); //通过*SpringFactoriesLoader*检索*META-INF/spring.factories*, //找到声明的所有SpringApplicationRunListener的实现类并将其实例化, //之后逐个调用其started()方法,广播SpringBoot要开始执行了 SpringApplicationRunListeners listeners = getRunListeners(args); //发布应用开始启动事件 listeners.starting(); try { //初始化参数 ApplicationArguments applicationArguments = new DefaultApplicationArguments(args); //创建并配置当前SpringBoot应用将要使用的Environment(包括配置要使用的PropertySource以及Profile), //并遍历调用所有的SpringApplicationRunListener的environmentPrepared()方法,广播Environment准备完毕。 ConfigurableEnvironment environment = prepareEnvironment(listeners, applicationArguments); configureIgnoreBeanInfo(environment); //打印banner Banner printedBanner = printBanner(environment); //创建应用上下文 context = createApplicationContext(); //通过*SpringFactoriesLoader*检索*META-INF/spring.factories*,获取并实例化异常分析器 exceptionReporters = getSpringFactoriesInstances(SpringBootExceptionReporter.class, new Class[] { ConfigurableApplicationContext.class }, context); //为ApplicationContext加载environment,之后逐个执行ApplicationContextInitializer的initialize()方法来进一步封装ApplicationContext, //并调用所有的SpringApplicationRunListener的contextPrepared()方法,【EventPublishingRunListener只提供了一个空的contextPrepared()方法】, //之后初始化IoC容器,并调用SpringApplicationRunListener的contextLoaded()方法,广播ApplicationContext的IoC加载完成, //这里就包括通过**@EnableAutoConfiguration**导入的各种自动配置类。 prepareContext(context, environment, listeners, applicationArguments, printedBanner); //刷新上下文 refreshContext(context); //再一次刷新上下文,其实是空方法,可能是为了后续扩展。 afterRefresh(context, applicationArguments); stopWatch.stop(); if (this.logStartupInfo) { new StartupInfoLogger(this.mainApplicationClass).logStarted(getApplicationLog(), stopWatch); } //发布应用已经启动的事件 listeners.started(context); //遍历所有注册的ApplicationRunner和CommandLineRunner,并执行其run()方法。 //我们可以实现自己的ApplicationRunner或者CommandLineRunner,来对SpringBoot的启动过程进行扩展。 callRunners(context, applicationArguments); } catch (Throwable ex) { handleRunFailure(context, ex, exceptionReporters, listeners); throw new IllegalStateException(ex); } try { //应用已经启动完成的监听事件 listeners.running(context); } catch (Throwable ex) { handleRunFailure(context, ex, exceptionReporters, null); throw new IllegalStateException(ex); } return context; } 复制代码
其实这个方法我们可以简单的总结下步骤为
其实上面这段代码,如果只要分析tomcat内容的话,只需要关注两个内容即可,上下文是如何创建的,上下文是如何刷新的,分别对应的方法就是 createApplicationContext()
和 refreshContext(context)
,接下来我们来看看这两个方法做了什么。
protected ConfigurableApplicationContext createApplicationContext() { Class<?> contextClass = this.applicationContextClass; if (contextClass == null) { try { switch (this.webApplicationType) { case SERVLET: contextClass = Class.forName(DEFAULT_SERVLET_WEB_CONTEXT_CLASS); break; case REACTIVE: contextClass = Class.forName(DEFAULT_REACTIVE_WEB_CONTEXT_CLASS); break; default: contextClass = Class.forName(DEFAULT_CONTEXT_CLASS); } } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) { throw new IllegalStateException( "Unable create a default ApplicationContext, " + "please specify an ApplicationContextClass", ex); } } return (ConfigurableApplicationContext) BeanUtils.instantiateClass(contextClass); } 复制代码
这里就是根据我们的 webApplicationType
来判断创建哪种类型的Servlet,代码中分别对应着Web类型(SERVLET),响应式Web类型(REACTIVE),非Web类型(default),我们建立的是Web类型,所以肯定实例化 DEFAULT_SERVLET_WEB_CONTEXT_CLASS
指定的类,也就是 AnnotationConfigServletWebServerApplicationContext
类,我们来用图来说明下这个类的关系
通过这个类图我们可以知道,这个类继承的是 ServletWebServerApplicationContext
,这就是我们真正的主角,而这个类最终是继承了 AbstractApplicationContext
,了解完创建上下文的情况后,我们再来看看刷新上下文,相关代码如下:
//类:SpringApplication.java private void refreshContext(ConfigurableApplicationContext context) { //直接调用刷新方法 refresh(context); if (this.registerShutdownHook) { try { context.registerShutdownHook(); } catch (AccessControlException ex) { // Not allowed in some environments. } } } //类:SpringApplication.java protected void refresh(ApplicationContext applicationContext) { Assert.isInstanceOf(AbstractApplicationContext.class, applicationContext); ((AbstractApplicationContext) applicationContext).refresh(); } 复制代码
这里还是直接传递调用本类的 refresh(context)
方法,最后是强转成父类 AbstractApplicationContext
调用其 refresh()
方法,该代码如下:
// 类:AbstractApplicationContext public void refresh() throws BeansException, IllegalStateException { synchronized (this.startupShutdownMonitor) { // Prepare this context for refreshing. prepareRefresh(); // Tell the subclass to refresh the internal bean factory. ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory = obtainFreshBeanFactory(); // Prepare the bean factory for use in this context. prepareBeanFactory(beanFactory); try { // Allows post-processing of the bean factory in context subclasses. postProcessBeanFactory(beanFactory); // Invoke factory processors registered as beans in the context. invokeBeanFactoryPostProcessors(beanFactory); // Register bean processors that intercept bean creation. registerBeanPostProcessors(beanFactory); // Initialize message source for this context. initMessageSource(); // Initialize event multicaster for this context. initApplicationEventMulticaster(); // Initialize other special beans in specific context subclasses.这里的意思就是调用各个子类的onRefresh() onRefresh(); // Check for listener beans and register them. registerListeners(); // Instantiate all remaining (non-lazy-init) singletons. finishBeanFactoryInitialization(beanFactory); // Last step: publish corresponding event. finishRefresh(); } catch (BeansException ex) { if (logger.isWarnEnabled()) { logger.warn("Exception encountered during context initialization - " + "cancelling refresh attempt: " + ex); } // Destroy already created singletons to avoid dangling resources. destroyBeans(); // Reset 'active' flag. cancelRefresh(ex); // Propagate exception to caller. throw ex; } finally { // Reset common introspection caches in Spring's core, since we // might not ever need metadata for singleton beans anymore... resetCommonCaches(); } } } 复制代码
这里我们看到 onRefresh()
方法是调用其子类的实现,根据我们上文的分析,我们这里的子类是 ServletWebServerApplicationContext
。
//类:ServletWebServerApplicationContext protected void onRefresh() { super.onRefresh(); try { createWebServer(); } catch (Throwable ex) { throw new ApplicationContextException("Unable to start web server", ex); } } private void createWebServer() { WebServer webServer = this.webServer; ServletContext servletContext = getServletContext(); if (webServer == null && servletContext == null) { ServletWebServerFactory factory = getWebServerFactory(); this.webServer = factory.getWebServer(getSelfInitializer()); } else if (servletContext != null) { try { getSelfInitializer().onStartup(servletContext); } catch (ServletException ex) { throw new ApplicationContextException("Cannot initialize servlet context", ex); } } initPropertySources(); } 复制代码
到这里,其实庐山真面目已经出来了, createWebServer()
就是启动web服务,但是还没有真正启动Tomcat,既然 webServer
是通过 ServletWebServerFactory
来获取的,我们就来看看这个工厂的真面目。
根据上图我们发现,工厂类是一个接口,各个具体服务的实现是由各个子类来实现的,所以我们就去看看 TomcatServletWebServerFactory.getWebServer()
的实现。
@Override public WebServer getWebServer(ServletContextInitializer... initializers) { Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat(); File baseDir = (this.baseDirectory != null) ? this.baseDirectory : createTempDir("tomcat"); tomcat.setBaseDir(baseDir.getAbsolutePath()); Connector connector = new Connector(this.protocol); tomcat.getService().addConnector(connector); customizeConnector(connector); tomcat.setConnector(connector); tomcat.getHost().setAutoDeploy(false); configureEngine(tomcat.getEngine()); for (Connector additionalConnector : this.additionalTomcatConnectors) { tomcat.getService().addConnector(additionalConnector); } prepareContext(tomcat.getHost(), initializers); return getTomcatWebServer(tomcat); } 复制代码
根据上面的代码,我们发现其主要做了两件事情,第一件事就是把Connnctor(我们称之为连接器)对象添加到Tomcat中,第二件事就是 configureEngine
,这连接器我们勉强能理解(不理解后面会述说),那这个 Engine
是什么呢?我们查看 tomcat.getEngine()
的源码:
public Engine getEngine() { Service service = getServer().findServices()[0]; if (service.getContainer() != null) { return service.getContainer(); } Engine engine = new StandardEngine(); engine.setName( "Tomcat" ); engine.setDefaultHost(hostname); engine.setRealm(createDefaultRealm()); service.setContainer(engine); return engine; } 复制代码
根据上面的源码,我们发现,原来这个Engine是容器,我们继续跟踪源码,找到 Container
接口
上图中,我们看到了4个子接口,分别是Engine,Host,Context,Wrapper。我们从继承关系上可以知道他们都是容器,那么他们到底有啥区别呢?我看看他们的注释是怎么说的。
/** If used, an Engine is always the top level Container in a Catalina * hierarchy. Therefore, the implementation's <code>setParent()</code> method * should throw <code>IllegalArgumentException</code>. * * @author Craig R. McClanahan */ public interface Engine extends Container { //省略代码 } /** * <p> * The parent Container attached to a Host is generally an Engine, but may * be some other implementation, or may be omitted if it is not necessary. * <p> * The child containers attached to a Host are generally implementations * of Context (representing an individual servlet context). * * @author Craig R. McClanahan */ public interface Host extends Container { //省略代码 } /*** <p> * The parent Container attached to a Context is generally a Host, but may * be some other implementation, or may be omitted if it is not necessary. * <p> * The child containers attached to a Context are generally implementations * of Wrapper (representing individual servlet definitions). * <p> * * @author Craig R. McClanahan */ public interface Context extends Container, ContextBind { //省略代码 } /**<p> * The parent Container attached to a Wrapper will generally be an * implementation of Context, representing the servlet context (and * therefore the web application) within which this servlet executes. * <p> * Child Containers are not allowed on Wrapper implementations, so the * <code>addChild()</code> method should throw an * <code>IllegalArgumentException</code>. * * @author Craig R. McClanahan */ public interface Wrapper extends Container { //省略代码 } 复制代码
上面的注释翻译过来就是, Engine
是最高级别的容器,其子容器是 Host
, Host
的子容器是 Context
, Wrapper
是 Context
的子容器,所以这4个容器的关系就是父子关系,也就是 Engine
> Host
> Context
> Wrapper
。
我们再看看 Tomcat
类的源码:
//部分源码,其余部分省略。 public class Tomcat { //设置连接器 public void setConnector(Connector connector) { Service service = getService(); boolean found = false; for (Connector serviceConnector : service.findConnectors()) { if (connector == serviceConnector) { found = true; } } if (!found) { service.addConnector(connector); } } //获取service public Service getService() { return getServer().findServices()[0]; } //设置Host容器 public void setHost(Host host) { Engine engine = getEngine(); boolean found = false; for (Container engineHost : engine.findChildren()) { if (engineHost == host) { found = true; } } if (!found) { engine.addChild(host); } } //获取Engine容器 public Engine getEngine() { Service service = getServer().findServices()[0]; if (service.getContainer() != null) { return service.getContainer(); } Engine engine = new StandardEngine(); engine.setName( "Tomcat" ); engine.setDefaultHost(hostname); engine.setRealm(createDefaultRealm()); service.setContainer(engine); return engine; } //获取server public Server getServer() { if (server != null) { return server; } System.setProperty("catalina.useNaming", "false"); server = new StandardServer(); initBaseDir(); // Set configuration source ConfigFileLoader.setSource(new CatalinaBaseConfigurationSource(new File(basedir), null)); server.setPort( -1 ); Service service = new StandardService(); service.setName("Tomcat"); server.addService(service); return server; } //添加Context容器 public Context addContext(Host host, String contextPath, String contextName, String dir) { silence(host, contextName); Context ctx = createContext(host, contextPath); ctx.setName(contextName); ctx.setPath(contextPath); ctx.setDocBase(dir); ctx.addLifecycleListener(new FixContextListener()); if (host == null) { getHost().addChild(ctx); } else { host.addChild(ctx); } //添加Wrapper容器 public static Wrapper addServlet(Context ctx, String servletName, Servlet servlet) { // will do class for name and set init params Wrapper sw = new ExistingStandardWrapper(servlet); sw.setName(servletName); ctx.addChild(sw); return sw; } } 复制代码
阅读 Tomcat
的 getServer()
我们可以知道, Tomcat
的最顶层是 Server
,Server就是 Tomcat
的实例,一个 Tomcat
一个 Server
;通过 getEngine()
我们可以了解到Server下面是Service,而且是多个,一个Service代表我们部署的一个应用,而且我们还可以知道, Engine
容器,一个 service
只有一个;根据父子关系,我们看 setHost()
源码可以知道, host
容器有多个;同理,我们发现 addContext()
源码下, Context
也是多个; addServlet()
表明 Wrapper
容器也是多个,而且这段代码也暗示了,其实 Wrapper
和 Servlet
是一层意思。另外我们根据 setConnector
源码可以知道,连接器( Connector
)是设置在 service
下的,而且是可以设置多个连接器( Connector
)。
根据上面分析,我们可以小结下: Tomcat主要包含了2个核心组件,连接器(Connector)和容器(Container),用图表示如下:
一个 Tomcat
是一个 Server
,一个 Server
下有多个 service
,也就是我们部署的多个应用,一个应用下有多个连接器( Connector
)和一个容器( Container
),容器下有多个子容器,关系用图表示如下:
Engine
下有多个 Host
子容器, Host
下有多个 Context
子容器, Context
下有多个 Wrapper
子容器。
SpringBoot的启动是通过 new SpringApplication()
实例来启动的,启动过程主要做如下几件事情:
而启动Tomcat就是在第7步中“刷新上下文”;Tomcat的启动主要是初始化2个核心组件,连接器(Connector)和容器(Container),一个Tomcat实例就是一个Server,一个Server包含多个Service,也就是多个应用程序,每个Service包含多个连接器(Connetor)和一个容器(Container),而容器下又有多个子容器,按照父子关系分别为:Engine,Host,Context,Wrapper,其中除了Engine外,其余的容器都是可以有多个。
本期文章通过SpringBoot的启动来窥探了Tomcat的内部结构,下一期,我们来分析下本次文章中的连接器( Connetor
)和容器(Container)的作用,敬请期待。
