+ Changes between 1.0 and 2.0 + + + For a detailed migration guide in regards to upgrading an existing application + that uses Spring Integration older than version 2.0, please see: + + + + +
+ Spring 3 support + + Spring Integration 2.0 is built on top of Spring 3.0.5 and makes many of its features available to our users. + + +
+ Support for the Spring Expression Language (SpEL) + + You can now use SpEL expressions within the transformer, router, filter, + splitter, aggregator, service-activator, header-enricher, and many more elements of the + Spring Integration core namespace as well as various adapters. + There are many samples provided throughout this manual. + +
+ +
+ ConversionService and Converter + + You can now benefit from Conversion Service support provided with Spring while configuring + many Spring Integration components such as Datatype Channel. + See as well . + Also, the SpEL support mentioned in the previous point also relies upon the ConversionService. Therefore, you + can register Converters once, and take advantage of them anywhere you are using SpEL expressions. + +
+ +
+ TaskScheduler and Trigger + + Spring 3.0 defines two new strategies related to scheduling: TaskScheduler and Trigger + Spring Integration (which uses a lot of scheduling) now builds upon these. In fact, Spring Integration 1.0 + had originally defined some of the components (e.g. CronTrigger) that have now been migrated into Spring 3.0's + core API. Now, you can benefit from reusing the same components within the entire Application Context (not just + Spring Integration configuration). Configuration of Spring Integration Pollers has been greatly simplified + as well by providing attributes for directly configuring rates, delays, cron expressions, and trigger references. + See for sample configurations. + +
+ +
+ RestTemplate and HttpMessageConverter + + Our outbound HTTP adapters now delegate to Spring's RestTemplate for executing the HTTP request and handling its response. + This also means that you can reuse any custom HttpMessageConverter implementations. + See for more details. + +
+
+ +
+ Enterprise Integration Pattern Additions + + Also in 2.0 we have added support for even more of the patterns described in Hohpe and Woolf's + Enterprise Integration Patterns book. + + +
+ Message History + + We now provide support for the Message History pattern + allowing you to keep track of all traversed components, including the name of each channel and endpoint as well as the timestamp + of that traversal. See for more details. + +
+ +
+ Message Store + + We now provide support for the Message Store pattern. + The Message Store provides a strategy for persisting messages on behalf of any process whose scope extends beyond a single + transaction, such as the Aggregator and Resequencer. Many sections of this document provide samples on how to use a Message Store as it + affects several areas of Spring Integration. See , + , , , and for more details + +
+ +
+ Claim Check + + We have added an implementation of the Claim Check pattern. + The idea behind the Claim Check pattern is that you can exchange a Message payload for a "claim ticket" and vice-versa. + This allows you to reduce bandwidth and/or avoid potential security issues when sending Messages across channels. + See for more details. + +
+ +
+ Control Bus + + We have provided implementations of the Control Bus pattern which + allows you to use messaging to manage and monitor endpoints and channels. The implementations include both a SpEL-based approach + and one that executes Groovy scripts. + See and for more details. + +
+ +
+ +
+ New Channel Adapters and Gateways + + We have added several new Channel Adapters and Messaging Gateways in Spring Integration 2.0. + + + +
+ TCP/UDP Adapters + + We have added Channel Adapters for receiving and sending messages over the TCP and UDP internet protocols. + See for more details. Also, you can checkout the following blog: + TCP/UDP support + +
+ +
+ Twitter Adapters + + Twitter adapters provides support for sending and receiving Twitter Status + updates as well as Direct Messages. You can also perform Twitter Searches with an inbound Channel Adapter. + See for more details. + +
+ +
+ XMPP Adapters + + The new XMPP adapters support both Chat Messages and Presence events. See for more details. + +
+ +
+ FTP/FTPS Adapters + + Inbound and outbound File transfer support over FTP/FTPS is now available. See for more details. + +
+ +
+ SFTP Adapters + + Inbound and outbound File transfer support over SFTP is now available. See for more details. + +
+ +
+ Feed Adapters + + We have also added Channel Adapters for receiving news feeds (ATOM/RSS). See for more details. + +
+
+ +
+ Other Additions + +
+ Groovy Support + + With Spring Integration 2.0 we've added Groovy support allowing you to + use Groovy scripting language to provide integration and/or business logic. + See for more details. + +
+ +
+ Map Transformers + + These symmetrical transformers convert payload objects to and from a Map. See for more details. + +
+ +
+ JSON Transformers + + These symmetrical transformers convert payload objects to and from JSON. See for more details. + +
+ +
+ Serialization Transformers + + These symmetrical transformers convert payload objects to and from byte arrays. + They also support the Serializer and Deserializer strategy interfaces that have been added as of Spring 3.0.5. + See for more details. + +
+ +
+ +
+ Framework Refactoring + + The core API went through some significant refactoring to make it simpler and more usable. Although we anticipate + that the impact to the end user should be minimal, please read through this document to find what was + changed. Especially, visit , , , + , and for more details. If you are depending directly on some of + the core components (Message, MessageHeaders, MessageChannel, MessageBuilder, etc.), you will notice that you need to + update any import statements. We restructured some packaging to provide the flexibility we needed for extending the + domain model while avoiding any cyclical dependencies (it is a policy of the framework to avoid such "tangles"). + +
+ +
+ New Source Control Management and Build Infrastructure + + With Spring Integration 2.0 we have switched our build environment to use Git for source control. To access our repository simply follow this URL: + http://git.springsource.org/spring-integration. + We have also switched our build system to Gradle. + +
+ +
+ New Spring Integration Samples + + With Spring Integration 2.0 we have decoupled the samples from our main release distribution. Please read this blog to get more info + New Spring Integration Samples + We have also created many new samples, including samples for every new Adapter. + +
+ +
+ SpringSource Tool Suite Visual Editor for Spring Integration + + There is an amazing new visual editor for Spring Integration included within the latest version of SpringSource Tool Suite. + If you are not already using STS, please download it here: + + + + +

+ New Components +
+ JSR-223 Scripting Support + + In Spring Integration 2.0, support for + Groovy was added. With + Spring Integration 2.1 we expanded support for additional languages + substantially by implementing support for + JSR-223 + (Scripting for the Java™ Platform). Now you have the + ability to use any scripting language that supports JSR-223 including: + + + Javascript + Ruby/JRuby + Python/Jython + Groovy + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ GemFire Support + + Spring Integration provides support for + GemFire by providing + inbound adapters for entry and continuous query events, an outbound + adapter to write entries to the cache, and + + MessageStore and + + MessageGroupStore + implementations. Spring integration leverages + the Spring Gemfire project, providing a thin wrapper over its + components. + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ AMQP Support + + Spring Integration 2.1 adds several Channel Adapters for receiving and + sending messages using the + Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP). + Furthermore, Spring Integration also provides a point-to-point + Message Channel, as well as a publish/subscribe Message Channel + that are backed by AMQP Exchanges and Queues. + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ MongoDB Support + + As of version 2.1 Spring Integration provides support for + MongoDB + by providing a MongoDB-based MessageStore. + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ Redis Support + + As of version 2.1 Spring Integration supports + Redis, an advanced key-value + store, by providing a Redis-based MessageStore as well as + Publish-Subscribe Messaging adapters. + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ Stored Procedure Components + + With Spring Integration 2.1, the JDBC Module also provides + Stored Procedure support by adding several new components, including + inbound/outbound channel adapters and an Outbound Gateway. The Stored + Procedure support leverages Spring's + SimpleJdbcCall + class and consequently supports stored procedures for: + + + Apache Derby + DB2 + MySQL + Microsoft SQL Server + Oracle + PostgreSQL + Sybase + + + The Stored Procedure components also support Sql Functions for + the following databases: + + + MySQL + Microsoft SQL Server + Oracle + PostgreSQL + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ XPath and XML Validating Filter + + Spring Integration 2.1 provides a new XPath-based Message Filter, + that is part of the XML module. The XPath Filter + allows you to filter messages using provided XPath Expressions. + + Furthermore, documentation was added for the XML Validating Filter. + + + For more details please see + and . + +
+
+ Payload Enricher + + Since Spring Integration 2.1, the Payload Enricher is provided. A + Payload Enricher defines an endpoint that typically passes a + Message + to the exposed request channel and then expects a reply message. + The reply message then becomes the root object for evaluation of + expressions to enrich the target payload. + + + For further details please see . + +
+
+ FTP and SFTP Outbound Gateways + + Spring Integration 2.1 provides two new Outbound Gateways in order + to interact with remote File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or + Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFT) servers. These two gateways allow + you to directly execute a limited set of remote commands. + + + For instance, you can use these Outbound Gateways to list, retrieve and + delete remote files and have the Spring Integration message flow + continue with the remote server's response. + + + For further details please see + and . + +
+
+ FTP Session Caching + + As of version 2.1, we have exposed more flexibility with regards to + session management for remote file adapters (e.g., FTP, SFTP etc). + + + Specifically, the cache-sessions attribute, which is + available via the XML namespace support, is now + deprecated. Alternatively, we added the + sessionCacheSize and sessionWaitTimeout + attributes on the CachingSessionFactory. + + + For further details please see + and . + +
+ +
+
+ Framework Refactoring +
+ Standardizing Router Configuration + + Router parameters have been standardized across all router + implementations with Spring Integration 2.1 providing a more + consistent user experience. + + + With Spring Integration 2.1 the ignore-channel-name-resolution-failures + attribute has been removed in favor of consolidating its behavior + with the resolution-required attribute. Also, + the resolution-required attribute now defaults to true. + + + Starting with Spring Integration 2.1, routers will no longer silently + drop any messages, if no default output channel was defined. This means, + that by default routers now require at least one resolved channel (if no + default-output-channel was set) and + by default will throw a MessageDeliveryException + if no channel was determined (or an attempt to send was not successful). + + + If, however, you do desire to drop messages silently, simply set + default-output-channel="nullChannel". + + With the standardization of Router parameters and the consolidation + of the parameters described above, there is the possibility of + breaking older Spring Integration based applications. + + + For further details please see + +
+
+ XML Schemas updated to 2.1 + + Spring Integration 2.1 ships with an updated XML Schema (version 2.1), + providing many improvements, e.g. the Router standardizations + discussed above. + + + From now on, users must always declare the + latest XML schema (currently version 2.1). Alternatively, they can + use the version-less schema. Generally, the best option is to + use version-less namespaces, as these will automatically use the + latest available version of Spring Integration. + + + Declaring a version-less Spring Integration namespace: + + + +... +]]> + + + Declaring a Spring Integration namespace using an explicit version: + + + + +... +]]> + + + + The old 1.0 and 2.0 schemas are still there, but if an Application + Context still references one of those deprecated schemas, the validator + will fail on initialization. + +
+
+
+ Source Control Management and Build Infrastructure +
+ Source Code now hosted on Github + + Since version 2.0, the Spring Integration project uses Git for + version control. In order to increase community visibility even + further, the project was moved from SpringSource hosted Git + repositories to Github. + The Spring Integration Git repository is located at: + + + + For the project we also improved the process of providing code + contributions and we ensure that every commit is peer-reviewed. + In fact, core committers now follow the same process as contributors. + For more details please see: + + +
+
+ Improved Source Code Visibility with Sonar + + In an effort to provide better source code visibility and consequently + to monitor the quality of Spring Integration's source code, an instance + of Sonar was setup + and metrics are gathered nightly and made avaiblable at: + + +
+
+ +
+ New Samples + + For the 2.1 release of Spring Integration we also expanded the Spring + Integration Samples project and added many new samples, e.g. sampples + covering AMQP support, the new payload enricher, a sample illustrating + techniques for testing Spring Integration flow fragments, as well as + an example for executing Stored Procedures against Oracle.
