Spring Boot中Tomcat是怎么启动的

Spring Boot一个非常突出的优点就是不需要我们额外再部署Servlet容器，它内置了多种容器的支持。我们可以通过配置来指定我们需要的容器。

本文以我们平时最常使用的容器Tomcat为列来介绍以下两个知识点:

• Spring Boot是怎么整合启动Tomcat容器的；
• 在Spring Boot中，怎么进行Tomcat的深度配置。

Spring Boot整合启动Tomcat的流程

对于看源代码，每个人都有自己的方法。我自己在看源代码的时候喜欢结合IDEA的Debug功能一起看。比如说现在我们要研究Spring Boot是在哪个环节点启动Tomcat的，

我的思路是：Tomcat在启动时会调用各个组件的init方法和start方法，那么我只需要在这些方法上打上端点，然后就能在调用栈上看出Spring Boot是在哪个环节点启用

Tomcat的了。

按照这个思路，我在Tomcat的Connector组件的init方法上打了端点，通过调用栈能很清楚的看出Spring Boot是在容器的onRefresh方法中调用Tomcat的。

protected void onRefresh() {
    super.onRefresh();
    try {
        this.createWebServer();
    } catch (Throwable var2) {
        throw new ApplicationContextException("Unable to start web server", var2);
    }
}

找到了调用点，那么一切都好办了。从上面的方法中可以看出，重点内容就在this.createWebServer()这个方法中。

在Spring Boot中使用的容器类是ServletWebServerApplicationContext系列的容器，这个系列的容器可以内嵌Web容器。这个我们

可以从这个容器的属性和方法中可以看出来。

public class ServletWebServerApplicationContext extends GenericWebApplicationContext implements ConfigurableWebServerApplicationContext {
    //...省略部分代码
    public static final String DISPATCHER_SERVLET_NAME = "dispatcherServlet";
    //内嵌容器
    private volatile WebServer webServer;
    private ServletConfig servletConfig;

    //...省略部分代码
    //创建Web容器
    private void createWebServer() {
        WebServer webServer = this.webServer;
        ServletContext servletContext = this.getServletContext();
        //webServer和servletContext都是null，表示还没创建容器，进入创建容器的逻辑
        if (webServer == null && servletContext == null) {
            //获取创建容器的工厂，可以通过WebServerFactoryCustomizer接口对这个工厂进行自定义设置
            ServletWebServerFactory factory = this.getWebServerFactory();
            //具体的创建容器的方法，我们进去具体看下
            this.webServer = factory.getWebServer(new ServletContextInitializer[]{this.getSelfInitializer()});
        } else if (servletContext != null) {
            try {
                this.getSelfInitializer().onStartup(servletContext);
            } catch (ServletException var4) {
                throw new ApplicationContextException("Cannot initialize servlet context", var4);
            }
        }
        this.initPropertySources();
    }
}

下面是TomcatServletWebServerFactory的getWebServer方法。

public class TomcatServletWebServerFactory的getWebServer{
//...

@Override
public WebServer getWebServer(ServletContextInitializer... initializers) {
    //创建Tomcat容器
    Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat();
    File baseDir = (this.baseDirectory != null ? this.baseDirectory
            : createTempDir("tomcat"));
    tomcat.setBaseDir(baseDir.getAbsolutePath());
    //创建连接器，默认NIO模式，可以通过WebServerFactoryCustomizer改变具体模式
    Connector connector = new Connector(this.protocol);
    tomcat.getService().addConnector(connector);
    //自定义连接器
    customizeConnector(connector);
    tomcat.setConnector(connector);
    tomcat.getHost().setAutoDeploy(false);
    configureEngine(tomcat.getEngine());
    //可以通过WebServerFactoryCustomizer添加额外的连接器，这边将这些连接器绑定到Tomcat
    for (Connector additionalConnector : this.additionalTomcatConnectors) {
        tomcat.getService().addConnector(additionalConnector);
    }
    //组测Listener、Filter和Servlet，自定义Context等操作
    //这个方法可以重点看下
    prepareContext(tomcat.getHost(), initializers);
    //创建TomcatWebServer，并调用start方法
    return getTomcatWebServer(tomcat);
}

//内嵌的Tomcat容器
public TomcatWebServer(Tomcat tomcat, boolean autoStart) {
		Assert.notNull(tomcat, "Tomcat Server must not be null");
		this.tomcat = tomcat;
		this.autoStart = autoStart;
        //这边触发Tomcat的启动流程，是Tomcat启动的入口点
		initialize();
}
//...省略部分代码
}

至此Spring Boot内嵌的Tomcat已将顺序启动了。那么Spring Boot是在什么时候注册DispatchServlet的呢？

配置Listener、Filter和Servlet

Spring Boot配置Listener、Filter和Servlet可以參考我之前写的文章Spring Boot使用嵌入式容器，那怎么配置自定义Filter呢

推荐使用ServletListenerRegistrationBean、FilterRegistrationBean和ServletRegistrationBean的方式注册Listener、Filter和Servlet。

Spring Boot注册DispatcherServlet

在传统的Spring MVC项目中，我们都会在web.xml中注册DispatcherServlet这个入口类，那么在Spring Boot中是在哪里注册的呢？

大家如果看Spring Boot的源代码，这边有个小技巧大家可以参考下。就是Spring Boot把之前传统项目中的配置项都通过AutoConfig的形式

做配置了。所以这边在寻找DispatcherServlet是在哪里配置的也可以顺着这个思路去寻找。

在IDEA的类查找功能中输入DispatcherServlet关键字，我们能看到一个DispatcherServletAutoConfiguration类。从名字上就能看出这个

类是DispatcherServlet的自动配置类，我们点进去看下是否是在这个类内部注册的DispatcherServlet？

@AutoConfigureOrder(Ordered.HIGHEST_PRECEDENCE)
@Configuration
@ConditionalOnWebApplication(type = Type.SERVLET)
@ConditionalOnClass(DispatcherServlet.class)
@AutoConfigureAfter(ServletWebServerFactoryAutoConfiguration.class)
@EnableConfigurationProperties(ServerProperties.class)
public class DispatcherServletAutoConfiguration {

	/*
	 * The bean name for a DispatcherServlet that will be mapped to the root URL "/"
	 */
	public static final String DEFAULT_DISPATCHER_SERVLET_BEAN_NAME = "dispatcherServlet";

	/*
	 * The bean name for a ServletRegistrationBean for the DispatcherServlet "/"
	 */
	public static final String DEFAULT_DISPATCHER_SERVLET_REGISTRATION_BEAN_NAME = "dispatcherServletRegistration";

	@Configuration
	@Conditional(DefaultDispatcherServletCondition.class)
	@ConditionalOnClass(ServletRegistration.class)
	@EnableConfigurationProperties(WebMvcProperties.class)
	protected static class DispatcherServletConfiguration {

		private final WebMvcProperties webMvcProperties;

		public DispatcherServletConfiguration(WebMvcProperties webMvcProperties) {
			this.webMvcProperties = webMvcProperties;
		}

		@Bean(name = DEFAULT_DISPATCHER_SERVLET_BEAN_NAME)
		public DispatcherServlet dispatcherServlet() {
			DispatcherServlet dispatcherServlet = new DispatcherServlet();
			dispatcherServlet.setDispatchOptionsRequest(
					this.webMvcProperties.isDispatchOptionsRequest());
			dispatcherServlet.setDispatchTraceRequest(
					this.webMvcProperties.isDispatchTraceRequest());
			dispatcherServlet.setThrowExceptionIfNoHandlerFound(
					this.webMvcProperties.isThrowExceptionIfNoHandlerFound());
			return dispatcherServlet;
		}

		@Bean
		@ConditionalOnBean(MultipartResolver.class)
		@ConditionalOnMissingBean(name = DispatcherServlet.MULTIPART_RESOLVER_BEAN_NAME)
		public MultipartResolver multipartResolver(MultipartResolver resolver) {
			// Detect if the user has created a MultipartResolver but named it incorrectly
			return resolver;
		}

	}

	@Configuration
	@Conditional(DispatcherServletRegistrationCondition.class)
	@ConditionalOnClass(ServletRegistration.class)
	@EnableConfigurationProperties(WebMvcProperties.class)
	@Import(DispatcherServletConfiguration.class)
	protected static class DispatcherServletRegistrationConfiguration {

		private final ServerProperties serverProperties;

		private final WebMvcProperties webMvcProperties;

		private final MultipartConfigElement multipartConfig;

		public DispatcherServletRegistrationConfiguration(
				ServerProperties serverProperties, WebMvcProperties webMvcProperties,
				ObjectProvider<MultipartConfigElement> multipartConfigProvider) {
			this.serverProperties = serverProperties;
			this.webMvcProperties = webMvcProperties;
			this.multipartConfig = multipartConfigProvider.getIfAvailable();
		}

        //很熟悉的代码有没有，ServletRegistrationBean就是我们上一节中介绍的注册Servlet的方式
        //只不过这边注册的是DispatcherServlet这个特殊的Servlet
		@Bean(name = DEFAULT_DISPATCHER_SERVLET_REGISTRATION_BEAN_NAME)
		@ConditionalOnBean(value = DispatcherServlet.class, name = DEFAULT_DISPATCHER_SERVLET_BEAN_NAME)
		public ServletRegistrationBean<DispatcherServlet> dispatcherServletRegistration(
				DispatcherServlet dispatcherServlet) {
			ServletRegistrationBean<DispatcherServlet> registration = new ServletRegistrationBean<>(
					dispatcherServlet,
					this.serverProperties.getServlet().getServletMapping());
			registration.setName(DEFAULT_DISPATCHER_SERVLET_BEAN_NAME);
			registration.setLoadOnStartup(
					this.webMvcProperties.getServlet().getLoadOnStartup());
			if (this.multipartConfig != null) {
				registration.setMultipartConfig(this.multipartConfig);
			}
			return registration;
		}

	}

//...省略部分代码
}

好了通过这边的介绍，我们直到DispatcherServlet是通过DispatcherServletAutoConfiguration这个自动配置类注册的。

这边给出一个配置的列子

server:
  port: ${port:9999}
  tomcat:
    accept-count: 200
    #最好进行这段配置，默认会在tmp目录下创建，Linux有时会有定时任务删除tmp目录下的内容
    basedir: my-tomcat
    accesslog:
      enabled: true
      pattern: '%t %a "%r" %s %S (%b M) (%D ms)'
      max-http-post-size: 2MB
      max-swallow-size: 2M
    uri-encoding: GBK
    threads:
      max: 100
      min-spare: 10

具体使用时可以参考Spring Boo官网关于Tomcat的配置。

一些其他类

Spring Boot还提供了很多自定义类，让用户对Tomcat的组件做自定义配置。这个符合Spring的设计哲学：只提供选择，而不是强制用户使用某项技术。

关于Tomcat的自定义配置类还有以下几个，大家可以按需使用。

• WebServerFactoryCustomizer接口：自定义Web容易工厂
• WebServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor处理类：WebServerFactoryCustomizer类通过WebServerFactoryCustomizerBeanPostProcessor类生效
• TomcatConnectorCustomizer：连接器自定义处理类
• TomcatContextCustomizer：Context自定义接口
