1. Project Structure

Download the project source code and review the project folder structure :

 

2. Maven

A pom.xml template to quick start a Spring MVC project, it defines Spring 3 dependencies, an embedded Jetty container and Eclipse workspace configuration.

pom.xml
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"

        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

	xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0

	  </plugins>

	</build>

  </project>
 

3. Controller & Mapping

The @RequestMapping has been available since 2.5, but now enhanced to support REST style URLs.

HelloController.java
package com.mkyong.web.controller;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;

import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap;

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PathVariable;

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;

@Controller

public class HelloController {

	@RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)

	public String printWelcome(ModelMap model) {

		model.addAttribute("message", "Spring 3 MVC Hello World");

		return "hello";

	}

	@RequestMapping(value = "/hello/{name:.+}", method = RequestMethod.GET)

	public ModelAndView hello(@PathVariable("name") String name) {

		ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView();

		model.setViewName("hello");

		model.addObject("msg", name);

		return model;

	}

}

4. JSP Views

A JSP page to display the value, and include bootstrap css and js.

html4strict
<%@ taglib prefix="spring" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags"%>

<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%>

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<head>

<spring:url value="/resources/core/css/hello.css" var="coreCss" />

<spring:url value="/resources/core/css/bootstrap.min.css" var="bootstrapCss" />

<link href="${bootstrapCss}" rel="stylesheet" />

<link href="${coreCss}" rel="stylesheet" />

</head>

<nav class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top">

  <div class="container">

	<div class="navbar-header">

		<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Spring 3 MVC Project</a>

	</div>

  </div>

</nav>

<div class="jumbotron">

  <div class="container">

	<h1>${title}</h1>

	<p>

		<c:if test="${not empty name}">

			Hello ${name}

		</c:if>

		<c:if test="${empty name}">

			Welcome Welcome!

		</c:if>

    </p>

	<div class="col-md-4">

		<p>ABC</p>

		<p>

		<a class="btn btn-default" href="#" role="button">View details</a>

		</p>

	</div>

  </div>

  <hr />

  <footer>

  </footer>

</div>

<spring:url value="/resources/core/css/hello.js" var="coreJs" />

<spring:url value="/resources/core/css/bootstrap.min.js" var="bootstrapJs" />

<script src="${coreJs}"></script>

<script src="${bootstrapJs}"></script>

5. Spring XML Configuration

5.1 Enable component scanning, view resolver and resource mapping.

spring-web-servlet.xml
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"

	xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"

	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

	xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"

	xsi:schemaLocation="

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.2.xsd

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.2.xsd

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.2.xsd">

	<context:component-scan base-package="com.mkyong.web" />

	<bean

		class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">

		<property name="prefix">

			<value>/WEB-INF/views/jsp/</value>

		</property>

		<property name="suffix">

			<value>.jsp</value>

		</property>

	</bean>

	<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/resources/" />

	<mvc:annotation-driven />

</beans>

5.2 Declares a DispatcherServlet in web.xml. If the Spring XML configuration file is NOT specified, Spring will look for the {servlet-name}-servlet.xml.

In this example, Spring will look for the spring-web-servlet.xml file.

web.xml
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"

	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

	xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee

	http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"

	version="2.5">

	<display-name>Spring3 MVC Application</display-name>

	<servlet>

		<servlet-name>spring-web</servlet-name>

		<servlet-class>

                    org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet

                </servlet-class>

		<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>

	</servlet>

	<servlet-mapping>

		<servlet-name>spring-web</servlet-name>

		<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>

	</servlet-mapping>

</web-app>

You can define a Spring XML file via contextConfigLocation.

web.xml
	<servlet>

		<servlet-name>spring-web</servlet-name>

		<servlet-class>

                     org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet

                </servlet-class>

		<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>

		<init-param>

			<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>

			<param-value>/WEB-INF/spring-mvc-config.xml</param-value>

		</init-param>

	</servlet>

        <servlet-mapping>

		<servlet-name>spring-web</servlet-name>

		<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>

	</servlet-mapping>

6. Demo

The pom.xml file defines an embedded Jetty container. Issues mvn jetty:run to start the project.

Terminal
$ mvn jetty:run

...

[INFO] Started Jetty Server

[INFO] Starting scanner at interval of 10 seconds.

URL : http://localhost:8080/spring3

URL : http://localhost:8080/spring3/hello/mkyong

7. WAR File

To create a WAR file for deployment :

Terminal
your-project$ mvn war:war

A WAR file will be created in project\target\ folder.

${Project}\target\spring3-web-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war
