1 温故而知新
温故而知新,我们来简单回顾一下上篇的内容,上一篇我们分析了SpringBoot 启动时广播生命周期事件的原理,现将关键步骤再浓缩总结下:
- 为广播 SpringBoot 内置生命周期事件做前期准备:1)首先加载
ApplicationListener监听器实现类;2)其次加载 SPI 扩展类EventPublishingRunListener。 - SpringBoot 启动时利用
EventPublishingRunListener广播生命周期事件,然后ApplicationListener监听器实现类监听相应的生命周期事件执行一些初始化逻辑的工作。 
2 引言
上篇文章的侧重点是分析了 SpringBoot 启动时广播生命周期事件的原理,此篇文章我们再来详细分析 SpringBoot 内置的 7 种生命周期事件的源码。
3 SpringBoot 生命周期事件源码分析
分析 SpringBoot 的生命周期事件,我们先来看一张类结构图:

由上图可以看到事件类之间的关系:
- 最顶级的父类是 JDK 的事件基类
EventObject; - 然后 Spring 的事件基类
ApplicationEvent继承了 JDK 的事件基类EventObject; - 其次 SpringBoot 的生命周期事件基类
SpringApplicationEvent继承了 Spring 的事件基类ApplicationEvent; - 最后 SpringBoot 具体的 7 个生命周期事件类再继承了 SpringBoot 的生命周期事件基类
SpringApplicationEvent。 
3.1 JDK 的事件基类 EventObject
EventObject类是 JDK 的事件基类,可以说是所有 Java 事件类的基本,即所有的 Java 事件类都直接或间接继承于该类,源码如下:
// EventObject.javapublic class EventObject implements java.io.Serializable {private static final long serialVersionUID = 5516075349620653480L;/*** The object on which the Event initially occurred.*/protected transient Object source;/*** Constructs a prototypical Event.** @param source The object on which the Event initially occurred.* @exception IllegalArgumentException if source is null.*/public EventObject(Object source) {if (source == null)throw new IllegalArgumentException("null source");this.source = source;}/*** The object on which the Event initially occurred.** @return The object on which the Event initially occurred.*/public Object getSource() {return source;}/*** Returns a String representation of this EventObject.** @return A a String representation of this EventObject.*/public String toString() {return getClass().getName() + "[source=" + source + "]";}}
可以看到EventObject类只有一个属性source,这个属性是用来记录最初事件是发生在哪个类,举个栗子,比如在 SpringBoot 启动过程中会发射ApplicationStartingEvent事件,而这个事件最初是在SpringApplication类中发射的,因此source就是SpringApplication对象。
3.2 Spring 的事件基类 ApplicationEvent
ApplicationEvent继承了 DK 的事件基类EventObject类,是 Spring 的事件基类,被所有 Spring 的具体事件类继承,源码如下:
// ApplicationEvent.java/*** Class to be extended by all application events. Abstract as it* doesn't make sense for generic events to be published directly.** @author Rod Johnson* @author Juergen Hoeller*/public abstract class ApplicationEvent extends EventObject {/** use serialVersionUID from Spring 1.2 for interoperability. */private static final long serialVersionUID = 7099057708183571937L;/** System time when the event happened. */private final long timestamp;/*** Create a new ApplicationEvent.* @param source the object on which the event initially occurred (never {@code null})*/public ApplicationEvent(Object source) {super(source);this.timestamp = System.currentTimeMillis();}/*** Return the system time in milliseconds when the event happened.*/public final long getTimestamp() {return this.timestamp;}}
可以看到ApplicationEvent有且仅有一个属性timestamp,该属性是用来记录事件发生的时间。
3.3 SpringBoot 的事件基类 SpringApplicationEvent
SpringApplicationEvent类继承了 Spring 的事件基类ApplicationEvent,是所有 SpringBoot 内置生命周期事件的父类,源码如下:
/*** Base class for {@link ApplicationEvent} related to a {@link SpringApplication}.** @author Phillip Webb*/@SuppressWarnings("serial")public abstract class SpringApplicationEvent extends ApplicationEvent {private final String[] args;public SpringApplicationEvent(SpringApplication application, String[] args) {super(application);this.args = args;}public SpringApplication getSpringApplication() {return (SpringApplication) getSource();}public final String[] getArgs() {return this.args;}}
可以看到SpringApplicationEvent有且仅有一个属性args,该属性就是 SpringBoot 启动时的命令行参数即标注@SpringBootApplication启动类中main函数的参数。
3.4 SpringBoot 具体的生命周期事件类
接下来我们再来看一下SpringBoot内置生命周期事件即SpringApplicationEvent的具体子类们。
3.4.1 ApplicationStartingEvent
// ApplicationStartingEvent.javapublic class ApplicationStartingEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {public ApplicationStartingEvent(SpringApplication application, String[] args) {super(application, args);}}
SpringBoot 开始启动时便会发布ApplicationStartingEvent事件,其发布时机在环境变量 Environment 或容器 ApplicationContext 创建前但在注册ApplicationListener具体监听器之后,标志标志SpringApplication开始启动。
3.4.2 ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent
// ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent.javapublic class ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {private final ConfigurableEnvironment environment;/*** Create a new {@link ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent} instance.* @param application the current application* @param args the arguments the application is running with* @param environment the environment that was just created*/public ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent(SpringApplication application,String[] args, ConfigurableEnvironment environment) {super(application, args);this.environment = environment;}/*** Return the environment.* @return the environment*/public ConfigurableEnvironment getEnvironment() {return this.environment;}}
可以看到ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件多了一个environment属性,我们不妨想一下,多了environment属性的作用是啥? 答案就是ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件的environment属性作用是利用事件发布订阅机制,相应监听器们可以从ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件中取出environment变量,然后我们可以为environment属性增加属性值或读出environment变量中的值。
举个栗子:
ConfigFileApplicationListener监听器就是监听了ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件,然后取出ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件的environment属性,然后再为environment属性增加application.properties配置文件中的环境变量值。
当 SpringApplication 已经开始启动且环境变量Environment已经创建后,并且为环境变量Environment配置了命令行和Servlet等类型的环境变量后,此时会发布ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件。
监听ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件的第一个监听器是ConfigFileApplicationListener,因为是ConfigFileApplicationListener监听器还要为环境变量Environment增加application.properties配置文件中的环境变量;此后还有一些也是监听ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent事件的其他监听器监听到此事件时,此时可以说环境变量Environment几乎已经完全准备好了。
思考: 监听同一事件的监听器们执行监听逻辑时是有顺序的,我们可以想一下这个排序逻辑是什么时候排序的?还有为什么要这样排序呢?
3.4.3 ApplicationContextInitializedEvent
// ApplicationContextInitializedEvent.javapublic class ApplicationContextInitializedEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {private final ConfigurableApplicationContext context;/*** Create a new {@link ApplicationContextInitializedEvent} instance.* @param application the current application* @param args the arguments the application is running with* @param context the context that has been initialized*/public ApplicationContextInitializedEvent(SpringApplication application,String[] args, ConfigurableApplicationContext context) {super(application, args);this.context = context;}/*** Return the application context.* @return the context*/public ConfigurableApplicationContext getApplicationContext() {return this.context;}}
可以看到ApplicationContextInitializedEvent事件多了个ConfigurableApplicationContext类型的context属性,context属性的作用同样是为了相应监听器可以拿到这个context属性执行一些逻辑,具体作用将在3.4.4详述。
ApplicationContextInitializedEvent事件在ApplicationContext容器创建后,且为ApplicationContext容器设置了environment变量和执行了ApplicationContextInitializers的初始化方法后但在 bean 定义加载前触发,标志 ApplicationContext 已经初始化完毕。
扩展: 可以看到
ApplicationContextInitializedEvent是在为context容器配置environment变量后触发,此时ApplicationContextInitializedEvent等事件只要有context容器的话,那么其他需要environment环境变量的监听器只需要从context中取出environment变量即可,从而ApplicationContextInitializedEvent等事件没必要再配置environment属性。
3.4.4 ApplicationPreparedEvent
// ApplicationPreparedEvent.javapublic class ApplicationPreparedEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {private final ConfigurableApplicationContext context;/*** Create a new {@link ApplicationPreparedEvent} instance.* @param application the current application* @param args the arguments the application is running with* @param context the ApplicationContext about to be refreshed*/public ApplicationPreparedEvent(SpringApplication application, String[] args,ConfigurableApplicationContext context) {super(application, args);this.context = context;}/*** Return the application context.* @return the context*/public ConfigurableApplicationContext getApplicationContext() {return this.context;}}
同样可以看到ApplicationPreparedEvent事件多了个ConfigurableApplicationContext类型的context属性,多了context属性的作用是能让监听该事件的监听器们能拿到context属性,监听器拿到context属性一般有如下作用:
- 从事件中取出
context属性,然后可以增加一些后置处理器,比如ConfigFileApplicationListener监听器监听到ApplicationPreparedEvent事件后,然后取出context变量,通过context变量增加了PropertySourceOrderingPostProcessor这个后置处理器; - 通过
context属性取出beanFactory容器,然后注册一些bean,比如LoggingApplicationListener监听器通过ApplicationPreparedEvent事件的context属性取出beanFactory容器,然后注册了springBootLoggingSystem这个单例bean; - 通过
context属性取出Environment环境变量,然后就可以操作环境变量,比如PropertiesMigrationListener。 
ApplicationPreparedEvent事件在ApplicationContext容器已经完全准备好时但在容器刷新前触发,在这个阶段bean定义已经加载完毕还有environment已经准备好可以用了。
3.4.5 ApplicationStartedEvent
// ApplicationStartedEvent.javapublic class ApplicationStartedEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {private final ConfigurableApplicationContext context;/*** Create a new {@link ApplicationStartedEvent} instance.* @param application the current application* @param args the arguments the application is running with* @param context the context that was being created*/public ApplicationStartedEvent(SpringApplication application, String[] args,ConfigurableApplicationContext context) {super(application, args);this.context = context;}/*** Return the application context.* @return the context*/public ConfigurableApplicationContext getApplicationContext() {return this.context;}}
ApplicationStartedEvent事件将在容器刷新后但ApplicationRunner和CommandLineRunner的run方法执行前触发,标志Spring容器已经刷新,此时容器已经准备完毕了。
扩展: 这里提到了
ApplicationRunner和CommandLineRunner接口有啥作用呢?我们一般会在Spring容器刷新完毕后,此时可能有一些系统参数等静态数据需要加载,此时我们就可以实现了ApplicationRunner或CommandLineRunner接口来实现静态数据的加载。
3.4.6 ApplicationReadyEvent
// ApplicationReadyEvent.javapublic class ApplicationReadyEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {private final ConfigurableApplicationContext context;/*** Create a new {@link ApplicationReadyEvent} instance.* @param application the current application* @param args the arguments the application is running with* @param context the context that was being created*/public ApplicationReadyEvent(SpringApplication application, String[] args,ConfigurableApplicationContext context) {super(application, args);this.context = context;}/*** Return the application context.* @return the context*/public ConfigurableApplicationContext getApplicationContext() {return this.context;}}
ApplicationReadyEvent事件在调用完ApplicationRunner和CommandLineRunner的run方法后触发,此时标志SpringApplication已经正在运行。
3.4.7 ApplicationFailedEvent
// ApplicationFailedEvent.javapublic class ApplicationFailedEvent extends SpringApplicationEvent {private final ConfigurableApplicationContext context;private final Throwable exception;/*** Create a new {@link ApplicationFailedEvent} instance.* @param application the current application* @param args the arguments the application was running with* @param context the context that was being created (maybe null)* @param exception the exception that caused the error*/public ApplicationFailedEvent(SpringApplication application, String[] args,ConfigurableApplicationContext context, Throwable exception) {super(application, args);this.context = context;this.exception = exception;}/*** Return the application context.* @return the context*/public ConfigurableApplicationContext getApplicationContext() {return this.context;}/*** Return the exception that caused the failure.* @return the exception*/public Throwable getException() {return this.exception;}}复制代码
可以看到ApplicationFailedEvent事件除了多了一个context属性外,还多了一个Throwable类型的exception属性用来记录 SpringBoot 启动失败时的异常。
ApplicationFailedEvent事件在 SpringBoot 启动失败时触发,标志 SpringBoot 启动失败。
