Dear Spring Community!

Just after the Spring Integration Java DSL 1.0 GA release announcement I want to introduce the Spring Integration Java DSL to you as a line by line tutorial based on the classic Cafe Demo integration sample. We describe here Spring Boot support, Spring Framework Java and Annotation configuration, the IntegrationFlow feature and pay tribute to Java 8 Lambda support which was an inspiration for the DSL style. Of course, it is all backed by the Spring Integration Core project.

For those, who are not interested in Java 8 yet, we provide similar tutorial without Lambdas: Spring Integration Java DSL (pre Java 8): Line by line tutorial…

Here is a summary of major changes since the last milestone:

Refactoring and Breaking Changes

While still supporting earlier Java versions, the Spring Integration Java DSL is primarily positioned for Java 8 and its Lambda support. We have removed several functional interfaces in favor of similar interfaces from Java 8: Consumer<T>, Function<T, R> etc. Of course, to support backward…

Spring Framework 4.1

Spring Integration takes advantage of a number of new features in Spring…

We are pleased to announce the release of the Second Milestone of the Java DSL extension for Spring Integration!

The org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-java-dsl:1.0.0.M2 artifact is available from the Spring IO Milestone Repository.

Milestone 2 includes several bug fixes, some new features and further improvements.

Thank you to all who tried milestone 1, provided feedback, raised issues, and shared their thoughts.

Here is a summary of major changes since Milestone 1:

Lambda Handler

As you may have noticed, the use of Java 8 Lambdas is the power tool to make this DSL convenient and readable. One community request we received was to allow the declaration of a Lambda for the .handle() EIP-method instead of having to declare a POJO and use it as a method invocation. But one concern was to not lose "runtime type conversion". However, you can't get the generic type for Lambdas. After some investigation we found the solution by additing a type argument. Hence, several new methods have been added to the IntegrationFlowBuilder…

The Spring Integration development team is pleased to announce the release of the First Milestone of the Java DSL extension for Spring Integration!

The general purpose of the Java DSL is to provide a fluent and convenient API for Message Flows based on EIP and avoid boilerplate Spring Integration configuration.

The org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-java-dsl:1.0.0.M1 artifact is available from the Spring IO Milestone Repository.

You can find in more information in the Reference Manual and from source code, however let us shed some light on the main features.

The Concept

The Spring Integration Java DSL is not similar to existing Scala and Groovy DSls; nor is it similar to the Apache Camel Java DSL, although it does implement the method-chain…

The release includes several bug fixes, some new features and further improvements with the GA release due near the end of April.

Here is a summary of major changes since the last milestone

@Poller and @InboundChannelAdapter

Building on the extensive improvements to annotation support announced in M4 Release, the new @Poller annotation has been added to each of the Messaging Annotations (@ServiceActivator, @Router etc.). The @Poller annotation attribute enables configuration of poller options for the inputChannel of the Messaging Annotation. This allows annotated endpoints to be PollingConsumers. Previously, annotated endpoints could only use SubscribableChannel…
