ApplicationContextInitializer机制

定义

/**
 * Callback interface for initializing a Spring {@link ConfigurableApplicationContext}
 * prior to being {@linkplain ConfigurableApplicationContext#refresh() refreshed}.
 *
 * <p>Typically used within web applications that require some programmatic initialization
 * of the application context. For example, registering property sources or activating
 * profiles against the {@linkplain ConfigurableApplicationContext#getEnvironment()
 * context's environment}. See {@code ContextLoader} and {@code FrameworkServlet} support
 * for declaring a "contextInitializerClasses" context-param and init-param, respectively.
 *
 * <p>{@code ApplicationContextInitializer} processors are encouraged to detect
 * whether Spring's {@link org.springframework.core.Ordered Ordered} interface has been
 * implemented or if the @{@link org.springframework.core.annotation.Order Order}
 * annotation is present and to sort instances accordingly if so prior to invocation.

ApplicationContextInitializer 提供了对ConfigurableApplicationContext初始化配置的能力。属于一个回调接口，主要用在web环境中，比如初始化property sources或者active profiles。

在哪儿调用？

• ContextLoader中
  在ContextLoaderListener的父类ContextLoader#customizeContext方法中

	protected void customizeContext(ServletContext sc, ConfigurableWebApplicationContext wac) {
		List<Class<ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext>>> initializerClasses =
				determineContextInitializerClasses(sc);

		for (Class<ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext>> initializerClass : initializerClasses) {
			Class<?> initializerContextClass =
					GenericTypeResolver.resolveTypeArgument(initializerClass, ApplicationContextInitializer.class);
			if (initializerContextClass != null && !initializerContextClass.isInstance(wac)) {
				throw new ApplicationContextException(String.format(
						"Could not apply context initializer [%s] since its generic parameter [%s] " +
						"is not assignable from the type of application context used by this " +
						"context loader: [%s]", initializerClass.getName(), initializerContextClass.getName(),
						wac.getClass().getName()));
			}
			this.contextInitializers.add(BeanUtils.instantiateClass(initializerClass));
		}

		AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.sort(this.contextInitializers);
		for (ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext> initializer : this.contextInitializers) {
			initializer.initialize(wac);
		}
	}


	protected List<Class<ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext>>>
			determineContextInitializerClasses(ServletContext servletContext) {

		List<Class<ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext>>> classes =
				new ArrayList<Class<ApplicationContextInitializer<ConfigurableApplicationContext>>>();

		String globalClassNames = servletContext.getInitParameter(GLOBAL_INITIALIZER_CLASSES_PARAM);
		if (globalClassNames != null) {
			for (String className : StringUtils.tokenizeToStringArray(globalClassNames, INIT_PARAM_DELIMITERS)) {
				classes.add(loadInitializerClass(className));
			}
		}

		String localClassNames = servletContext.getInitParameter(CONTEXT_INITIALIZER_CLASSES_PARAM);
		if (localClassNames != null) {
			for (String className : StringUtils.tokenizeToStringArray(localClassNames, INIT_PARAM_DELIMITERS)) {
				classes.add(loadInitializerClass(className));
			}
		}

		return classes;
	}

从ServletContext的初始化参数globalInitializerClasses、contextInitializerClasse获取。

• DelegatingApplicationContextInitializer
  该类代理了其他ApplicationContextInitializer，它从ConfigurableApplicationContext的环境变量context.initializer.classes中获取其他的ApplicationContextInitializer。而DelegatingApplicationContextInitializer已经定义在了spring.factories中，说明我们可以直接往context设置环境变量context.initializer.classes即可。

• FrameworkServlet
  org.springframework.web.servlet.FrameworkServlet#configureAndRefreshWebApplicationContext，逻辑跟ContextLoader一致。

• SpringApplication
  org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication#applyInitializers方法中通过spring.factories机制获取实例，再调用方法。
