一、背景
spring-data-mongo 实现了基于 MongoDB 的 ORM-Mapping 能力，
通过一些简单的注解、Query封装以及工具类，就可以通过对象操作来实现集合、文档的增删改查；
在 SpringBoot 体系中，spring-data-mongo 是 MongoDB Java 工具库的不二之选。
二、问题产生
在一次项目问题的追踪中，发现SpringBoot 应用启动失败，报错信息如下：

关键信息：org.springframework.dao.DataIntegrityViolationException: Cannot create index
从异常信息上看，出现的是索引冲突(Command failed with error 85)，spring-data-mongo 组件在程序启动时会实现根据注解创建索引的功能。
查看业务实体定义：
@Document(collection = "T_MDevice")
public class MDevice {
@Id
private String id;
@Indexed(unique=true)
private String deviceId;
deviceId 这个字段上定义了一个索引，unique=true表示这是一个唯一索引。
我们继续 查看 MongoDB中表的定义：
db.getCollection('T_MDevice').getIndexes()
>>
[
{
"v" : 1,
"key" : {
"_id" : 1
},
"name" : "_id_",
"ns" : "appdb.T_MDevice"
},
{
"v" : 1,
"key" : {
"deviceId" : 1
},
"name" : "deviceId",
"ns" : "appdb.T_MDevice"
}
]
发现数据库表中同样存在一个名为 deviceId的索引，但是并非唯一索引！
三、详细分析
为了核实错误产生的原因，我们尝试通过 Mongo Shell去执行索引的创建，发现返回了同样的错误。
通过将数据库中的索引删除，或更正为 unique=true 之后可以解决当前的问题。
从严谨度上看，一个索引冲突导致 SpringBoot 服务启动不了，是可以接受的。
但从灵活性来看，是否有某些方式能禁用索引的自动创建，或者仅仅是打印日志呢？
尝试 google spring data mongodb disable index creation
发现 JIRA-DATAMONGO-1201在2015年就已经提出，至今未解决。
图
stackoverflow 找到许多同样问题，
但大多数的解答是不采用索引注解，选择其他方式对索引进行管理。
这些结果并不能令人满意。
尝试查看 spring-data-mongo 的机制，定位到 MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator类：
- 初始化方法中，会根据 MappingContext(实体映射上下文)中已有的实体去创建索引
public MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator(MongoMappingContext mappingContext, MongoDbFactory mongoDbFactory,
IndexResolver indexResolver) {
...
//根据已有实体创建
for (MongoPersistentEntity<?> entity : mappingContext.getPersistentEntities()) {
checkForIndexes(entity);
}
}
- 在接收到MappingContextEvent时，创建对应实体的索引
public void onApplicationEvent(MappingContextEvent<?, ?> event) {
if (!event.wasEmittedBy(mappingContext)) {
return;
}
PersistentEntity<?, ?> entity = event.getPersistentEntity();
// Double check type as Spring infrastructure does not consider nested generics
if (entity instanceof MongoPersistentEntity) {
//创建单个实体索引
checkForIndexes((MongoPersistentEntity<?>) entity);
}
}
MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator是通过MongoTemplate引入的，如下：
public MongoTemplate(MongoDbFactory mongoDbFactory, MongoConverter mongoConverter) {
Assert.notNull(mongoDbFactory);
this.mongoDbFactory = mongoDbFactory;
this.exceptionTranslator = mongoDbFactory.getExceptionTranslator();
this.mongoConverter = mongoConverter == null ? getDefaultMongoConverter(mongoDbFactory) : mongoConverter;
...
// We always have a mapping context in the converter, whether it's a simple one or not
mappingContext = this.mongoConverter.getMappingContext();
// We create indexes based on mapping events
if (null != mappingContext && mappingContext instanceof MongoMappingContext) {
indexCreator = new MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator((MongoMappingContext) mappingContext, mongoDbFactory);
eventPublisher = new MongoMappingEventPublisher(indexCreator);
if (mappingContext instanceof ApplicationEventPublisherAware) {
((ApplicationEventPublisherAware) mappingContext).setApplicationEventPublisher(eventPublisher);
}
}
}
...
//MongoTemplate实现了 ApplicationContextAware，当ApplicationContext被实例化时被感知
public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext applicationContext) throws BeansException {
prepareIndexCreator(applicationContext);
eventPublisher = applicationContext;
if (mappingContext instanceof ApplicationEventPublisherAware) {
//MappingContext作为事件来源，向ApplicationContext发布
((ApplicationEventPublisherAware) mappingContext).setApplicationEventPublisher(eventPublisher);
}
resourceLoader = applicationContext;
}
...
//注入事件监听
private void prepareIndexCreator(ApplicationContext context) {
String[] indexCreators = context.getBeanNamesForType(MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator.class);
for (String creator : indexCreators) {
MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator creatorBean = context.getBean(creator, MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator.class);
if (creatorBean.isIndexCreatorFor(mappingContext)) {
return;
}
}
if (context instanceof ConfigurableApplicationContext) {
//使 IndexCreator 监听 ApplicationContext的事件
((ConfigurableApplicationContext) context).addApplicationListener(indexCreator);
}
}
由此可见，MongoTemplate在初始化时，先通过MongoConverter 带入 MongoMappingContext，
随后完成一系列初始化，整个过程如下：
- 实例化 MongoTemplate;
- 实例化 MongoConverter;
- 实例化 MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator；
- 初始化索引(通过MappingContext已有实体);
- Repository初始化 -> MappingContext 发布映射事件；
- ApplicationContext 将事件通知到 IndexCreator；
- IndexCreator 创建索引
在实例化过程中，没有任何配置可以阻止索引的创建。
四、解决问题
从前面的分析中，可以发现问题关键在 IndexCreator，能否提供一个自定义的实现呢，答案是可以的！
实现的要点如下
- 实现一个IndexCreator，可继承MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator，去掉索引的创建功能；
- 实例化 MongoConverter和 MongoTemplate时，使用一个空的 MongoMappingContext对象避免初始化索引；
- 将自定义的IndexCreator作为Bean进行注册，这样在prepareIndexCreator方法执行时，
原来的 MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator不会监听ApplicationContext的事件 - IndexCreator 实现了ApplicationContext监听，接管 MappingEvent事件处理。
实例化Bean
@Bean
public MongoMappingContext mappingContext() {
return new MongoMappingContext();
}
// 使用 MappingContext 实例化 MongoTemplate
@Bean
public MongoTemplate mongoTemplate(MongoDbFactory mongoDbFactory, MongoMappingContext mappingContext) {
MappingMongoConverter converter = new MappingMongoConverter(new DefaultDbRefResolver(mongoDbFactory),
mappingContext);
converter.setTypeMapper(new DefaultMongoTypeMapper(null));
MongoTemplate mongoTemplate = new MongoTemplate(mongoDbFactory, converter);
return mongoTemplate;
}
自定义IndexCreator
// 自定义IndexCreator实现
@Component
public static class CustomIndexCreator extends MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator {
// 构造器引用MappingContext
public CustomIndexCreator(MongoMappingContext mappingContext, MongoDbFactory mongoDbFactory) {
super(mappingContext, mongoDbFactory);
}
public void onApplicationEvent(MappingContextEvent<?, ?> event) {
PersistentEntity<?, ?> entity = event.getPersistentEntity();
// 获得Mongo实体类
if (entity instanceof MongoPersistentEntity) {
System.out.println("Detected MongoEntity " + entity.getName());
//可实现索引处理..
}
}
}
在这里 CustomIndexCreator继承了MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator，将自动接管MappingContextEvent事件的监听。
在业务实现上可以根据需要完成索引的处理！
小结
spring-data-mongo 提供了非常大的便利性，但在灵活性支持上仍然不足。上述的方法实际上有些隐晦，在官方文档中并未提及这样的方式。
ORM-Mapping 框架在实现Schema映射处理时需要考虑校验级别，比如 Hibernate便提供了 none/create/update/validation 多种选择，毕竟这对开发者来说更加友好。
期待 spring-data-mongo 在后续的演进中能尽快完善 Schema的管理功能！
