Using Annotation

You can also publish and reference services by using the Annotation mode in SOFABoot.Similar to the XML mode, we provide @SofaService and @SofaReference. When multiple protocols are used, you can use @SofaServiceBinding and @SofaReferenceBinding annotations.

Publish a service

To publish an RPC service, add the @SofaService annotation to a Bean object to specify the interface and protocol types.

@SofaService(interfaceType = AnnotationService.class, bindings = { @SofaServiceBinding(bindingType = "bolt") })
@Component
public class AnnotationServiceImpl implements AnnotationService {
    @Override
    public String sayAnnotation(String stirng) {
        return stirng;
    }
}

Reference a service

If the Bean object needs to reference a remote service, you just need to add the Reference annotation to the attribute or method. Bolt, Dubbo, and REST protocols are supported.

@Component
public class AnnotationClientImpl {
    @SofaReference(interfaceType = AnnotationService.class, binding = @SofaReferenceBinding(bindingType = "bolt"))
    private AnnotationService annotationService;
    public String sayClientAnnotation(String str) {
        String result = annotationService.sayAnnotation(str);
        return result;
    }
}
