Spring Boot @ConditionalOnBean Annotation Example
In this section we will learn about @ConditionalOnBean Annotation.
The @ConditionalOnBean annotation may be used on any class annotated with @Component, @Service & @Repository or on methods annotated with @Bean.
1. Using @ConditionalOnBean on @Bean method
For example, @ConditionalOnBean(name = "emailNotificationProvider"), when the Bean of name "emailNotificationProvider" exists in the container, the bean emailNotification will be loaded.
@Bean("emailNotification")
@ConditionalOnBean(name = "emailNotificationProvider")
public EmailNotificationService emailNotificationService()
{
return new EmailNotificationService();
}
@Bean("emailNotification")
@ConditionalOnBean(name = "emailNotificationProvider")
public EmailNotificationService emailNotificationService()
{
return new EmailNotificationService();
}
2. Using @ConditionalOnBean on @Service class
For example, @ConditionalOnBean(name = "smsNotificationProvider"), when the Bean of name "smsNotificationProvider" exists in the container, the bean smsNotification will be loaded.
@Service("smsNotification")
@ConditionalOnBean(name = "smsNotificationProvider")
public class SMSNotificationService {
public SMSNotificationService() {
System.out.println("SMSNotificationService Constructor");
}
}
@Service("smsNotification")
@ConditionalOnBean(name = "smsNotificationProvider")
public class SMSNotificationService {
public SMSNotificationService() {
System.out.println("SMSNotificationService Constructor");
}
}
The following example creates a Spring Boot web application which uses @ConditionalOnBean annotation.

EmailNotificationService.java
package com.knf.dev.demo.service;
public class EmailNotificationService {
public EmailNotificationService() {
System.out.println("EmailNotificationService Constructor");
}
}
TwitterNotificationService.java
package com.knf.dev.demo.service;
public class TwitterNotificationService {
public TwitterNotificationService() {
System.out.println("TwitterNotificationService Constructor");
}
}
AppConfig.java
package com.knf.dev.demo.config;
import com.knf.dev.demo.service.EmailNotificationService;
import com.knf.dev.demo.service.TwitterNotificationService;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.condition.ConditionalOnBean;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.condition.ConditionalOnResource;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
@Configuration
public class AppConfig {
@Bean("emailNotification")
@ConditionalOnBean(name = "emailNotificationProvider")
public EmailNotificationService emailNotificationService()
{
return new EmailNotificationService();
}
@Bean("twitterNotification")
public TwitterNotificationService twitterNotificationService()
{
return new TwitterNotificationService();
}
}
SMSNotificationService.java
package com.knf.dev.demo.service;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.condition.ConditionalOnBean;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
@Service("smsNotification")
@ConditionalOnBean(name = "smsNotificationProvider")
public class SMSNotificationService {
public SMSNotificationService() {
System.out.println("SMSNotificationService Constructor");
}
}
Run the application - Application.java
package com.knf.dev.demo;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext;
@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ConfigurableApplicationContext context =
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
context.close();
}
}
Application is the entry point that sets up the Spring Boot application. The @SpringBootApplication annotation enables auto-configuration and component scanning.
Let's run this Spring boot application from either IntelliJ IDEA IDE by right click - Run 'Application.main()'Or you can use the below maven command to run:
package com.knf.dev.demo;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext;
@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ConfigurableApplicationContext context =
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
context.close();
}
}
Application is the entry point that sets up the Spring Boot application. The @SpringBootApplication annotation enables auto-configuration and component scanning.
mvn spring-boot:runConsole Output:
TwitterNotificationService Constructor
