11. Migrations

This section covers migrating from one version of Spring Cloud Contract Verifier to the next version. It covers the following versions upgrade paths:

11.1 1.0.x → 1.1.x

This section covers upgrading from version 1.0 to version 1.1.

11.1.1 New structure of generated stubs

In 1.1.x we have introduced a change to the structure of generated stubs. If you have been using the @AutoConfigureWireMock notation to use the stubs from the classpath, it no longer works. The following example shows how the @AutoConfigureWireMock notation used to work:

@AutoConfigureWireMock(stubs = "classpath:/customer-stubs/mappings", port = 8084)

You must either change the location of the stubs to: classpath:…​/META-INF/groupId/artifactId/version/mappings or use the new classpath-based @AutoConfigureStubRunner, as shown in the following example:

@AutoConfigureWireMock(stubs = "classpath:customer-stubs/META-INF/travel.components/customer-contract/1.0.2-SNAPSHOT/mappings/", port = 8084)

If you do not want to use @AutoConfigureStubRunner and you want to remain with the old structure, set your plugin tasks accordingly. The following example would work for the structure presented in the previous snippet.

Maven.

<properties>
    <!-- we don't want the verifier to do a jar for us -->
    <spring.cloud.contract.verifier.skip>true</spring.cloud.contract.verifier.skip>
</properties>

<!-- ... -->

<!-- You need to set up the assembly plugin -->

Gradle. 

task copyStubs(type: Copy, dependsOn: 'generateWireMockClientStubs') {
//    Preserve directory structure from 1.0.X of spring-cloud-contract
    from "${project.buildDir}/resources/main/customer-stubs/META-INF/${project.group}/${project.name}/${project.version}"
    into "${project.buildDir}/resources/main/customer-stubs"
}

11.2 1.1.x → 1.2.x

This section covers upgrading from version 1.1 to version 1.2.

11.2.1 Custom HttpServerStub

HttpServerStub includes a method that was not in version 1.1. The method is String registeredMappings() If you have classes that implement HttpServerStub, you now have to implement the registeredMappings() method. It should return a String representing all mappings available in a single HttpServerStub.

See issue 355 for more detail.

11.2.2 New packages for generated tests

The flow for setting the generated tests package name will look like this:

  • Set basePackageForTests
  • If basePackageForTests was not set, pick the package from baseClassForTests
  • If baseClassForTests was not set, pick packageWithBaseClasses
  • If nothing got set, pick the default value: org.springframework.cloud.contract.verifier.tests

See issue 260 for more detail.

11.2.3 New Methods in TemplateProcessor

In order to add support for fromRequest.path, the following methods had to be added to the TemplateProcessor interface:

  • path()
  • path(int index)

See issue 388 for more detail.
