什么是Gateway
Gateway的作用就像是一个门面(门面模式),使得用户不需要直接跟Spring Integration的api交互,只需要跟自己定义的接口做交互就行了。这一点很重要,例如用户的业务代码中不需要耦合进spring integration框架的代码。
我们在上一篇Spring Integration --- Message Channel我们在main方法里面,通过手动获取Channel,然后新建Message来往channel发送消息,这样的话我们的业务代码就耦合上了Spring Integraion框架了
public class HelloWorldExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String cfg = "siia/helloworld/channel/context.xml";
ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(cfg);
MessageChannel channel = context.getBean("names", MessageChannel.class);
Message<String> message = MessageBuilder.withPayload("World").build();
channel.send(message);
}
}
下面我们利用Gateway来隐藏Spring Integration Api的直接调用,使得业务代码感知不到Spring Integration框架的存在
我们在Spring Integration --- Message Channel配置文件里面添加一个gateway元素,如下
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans:bean id="helloService"

</beans:beans>
gateway有一个service-interface的属性,这个属性指向一个interface,这样,当用户调用该接口的方法的时候,spring integration就会自动地帮我们新建一个message,并提交到default-request -channel指定地channel上。于是我们可以把main方法改为
public class HelloWorldExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String cfg = "siia/helloworld/gateway/context.xml";
ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(cfg);
HelloService helloService =
context.getBean("helloGateway", HelloService.class);
System.out.println(helloService.sayHello("World"));
}
}
从代码里面我们已经看不到对spring integration api地依赖了,gateway很好地把细节给隐藏起来。这里有一点要说的是,当我们用一个接口声明一个gateway时,spring integration会自动帮我们生成该接口的代理类,这样当我们往gateway发送消息时,spring integration会通过代理类把消息转发到default-request-channel中去
