Couchbase

Couchbase is an open source, document-oriented, distributed, multi-model NoSQL database optimized for interactive applications. In addition, Spring Boot provides auto-configuration for Couchbase and abstractions provided through Spring Data Couchbase. For convenient collection of dependencies, there are “starter packages” spring-boot-starter-data-couchbase and spring-boot-starter-data-couchbase-reactive

Connect to Couchbase

You can get a Cluster by adding the Couchbase SDK and some configuration. The spring.couchbase.* properties can be used to configure the connection. As a rule, connection string is specified, username and password, as shown in the following example:

spring.couchbase.connection-string=couchbase://192.168.1.123
spring.couchbase.username=user
spring.couchbase.password=secret

spring:
  couchbase:
    connection-string: "couchbase://192.168.1.123"
    username: "user"
    password: "secret"

You can also configure some ClusterEnvironment parameters. For example, the following configuration changes the timeout setting used to open a new Bucket and also enables SSL protocol support:

spring.couchbase.env.timeouts.connect=3s
spring.couchbase.env.ssl.key-store=/location/of/keystore.jks
spring.couchbase.env.ssl.key-store-password=secret

spring:
  couchbase:
    env:
      timeouts:
        connect: "3s"
      ssl:
        key-store: "/location/of/keystore.jks"
        key-store-password: "secret"

Spring Data Couchbase Repositories

Spring Data includes repository support for Couchbase.

An auto-configurable CouchbaseTemplate instance can be implemented just like any other Spring bean, as long as the CouchbaseClientFactory bean is present. This is possible if you have the Cluster described above, and the name of the bucket is given:

spring.data.couchbase.bucket-name=my-bucket

spring:
  data:
    couchbase:
      bucket-name: "my-bucket"

The following examples show how to implement the CouchbaseTemplate bean:

import org.springframework.data.couchbase.core.CouchbaseTemplate; import org.springframework.stereotype.Component; @Component public class MyBean { private final CouchbaseTemplate template; public MyBean(CouchbaseTemplate template) { this.template = template; }  // ...  public String someMethod() { return this.template.getBucketName(); } } 

import org.springframework.data.couchbase.core.CouchbaseTemplate import org.springframework.stereotype.Component @Component class MyBean(private val template: CouchbaseTemplate) {  // ...  fun someMethod(): String { return template.bucketName } } 

There are several beans that you can define in your own configuration to override those provided by autoconfiguration:

• A CouchbaseMappingContext bean marked with the @Bean annotation, named couchbaseMappingContext.

• A CustomConversions bean marked with a @Bean annotation named couchbaseCustomConversions.

• A CouchbaseTemplate bean marked with the @Bean annotation, named couchbaseTemplate.

To avoid hard-coding these names in your own configuration, you can use the BeanNames provided by Spring Data Couchbase. For example, you can configure the converters you use as follows:

import org.assertj.core.util.Arrays; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; import org.springframework.data.couchbase.config.BeanNames; import org.springframework.data.couchbase.core.convert.CouchbaseCustomConversions; @Configuration(proxyBeanMethods = false) public class MyCouchbaseConfiguration { @Bean(BeanNames.COUCHBASE_CUSTOM_CONVERSIONS) public CouchbaseCustomConversions myCustomConversions() { return new CouchbaseCustomConversions(Arrays.asList(new MyConverter())); } } 

import org.assertj.core.util.Arrays import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration import org.springframework.data.couchbase.config.BeanNames import org.springframework.data.couchbase.core.convert.CouchbaseCustomConversions @Configuration(proxyBeanMethods = false) class MyCouchbaseConfiguration { @Bean(BeanNames.COUCHBASE_CUSTOM_CONVERSIONS) fun myCustomConversions(): CouchbaseCustomConversions { return CouchbaseCustomConversions(Arrays.asList(MyConverter())) } }
