package io.micronaut.context.annotation;

import static java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME;

import javax.inject.Singleton;
import java.lang.annotation.Documented;
import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;

import java.lang.annotation.Target;

This annotation allows driving the production of Bean definitions from either configuration or the presence of another bean definition

For example:

 @EachProperty("foo.bar") public class ExampleConfiguration { } 

In the above example a new ExampleConfiguration bean will be created for each item under the foo.bar key in application configuration

A reference to the configuration entry name can be obtained with the Parameter annotation applied to a constructor argument:

 @EachProperty("foo.bar") public class ExampleConfiguration { ExampleConfiguration(@Parameter String name) { ... } } 

In the above example for a configuration property of foo.bar.test, the value of the name argument will be "test"

The bean is created as a singleton with a Named qualifier matching the configuration entry name, thus allowing retrieval with:


 ExampleConfiguration exampleConfiguration = applicationContext.getBean(ExampleConfiguration.class, Qualifiers.byName("test"));

Or alternatively dependency injection via the Named qualifier.

This annotation is typically used in conjunction with EachBean. For example, one can drive the configuration of other beans with the EachBean annotation:

 @EachBean(ExampleConfiguration) @Singleton public class ExampleBean { ExampleBean(ExampleConfiguration config) { ... } }
