在spring boot3中使用native image的最新方法

简介

在之前spring boot3文章中我们介绍了，spring boot3的一个重要特性就是支持把spring boot3的应用编译成为GraalVM的Native Image。

今天我们用具体的例子来给大家演示一下如何正确的将spring boot3的应用编译成为native image。

安装GraalVM

如果要把spring boot3的app编译成为native应用，需要GraalVM的支持。

什么是GraalVM呢？

从名字就可以看出来GraalVM是一个虚拟机，它的主要目标就是提升java应用程序的性能，并且消耗更少的资源。

它在java HotSpot JVM的基础上添加了JIT编译器和AOT来实现将应用编译成为本地可执行文件。除了java之外，GraalVM还支持JavaScript、Ruby、Python等多种编程语言。

所以，为什么要用GraalVM呢？一个字：快。

安装GraalVM也比较简单，我们进入它的官方下载页面下载对应的版本即可：https://www.oracle.com/downloads/graalvm-downloads.html。

GraalVM跟JDK一样也有两个版本，社区版和企业版本，大家可以根据需要自行选择。

要注意的是spring boot3需要GraalVM 22.3以上的版本支持，大家可不要下载错了。

下载完成之后，我们可以像正常安装JDK一样来安装GraalVM,这里以mac为例，假如我们安装的目录是/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/graalvm-ee-java17-22.3.0，那么我们需要配置对应的JAVA_HOME和PATH环境变量如下：

 export PATH=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/graalvm-ee-java17-22.3.0/Contents/Home/bin:$PATH

 export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/graalvm-ee-java17-22.3.0/Contents/Home
 export PATH=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/graalvm-ee-java17-22.3.0/Contents/Home/bin:$PATH

 export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/graalvm-ee-java17-22.3.0/Contents/Home

PATH中有一个非常重要的命令叫做gu，如果不添加PATH，那么在使用中就可能遇到下面的异常：

'gu' tool wasn't found. This probably means that JDK at isn't a GraalVM distribution.

安装完毕之后可以通过下面的命令来进行验证：

java -version
java version "17.0.5" 2022-10-18 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment GraalVM EE 22.3.0 (build 17.0.5+9-LTS-jvmci-22.3-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM GraalVM EE 22.3.0 (build 17.0.5+9-LTS-jvmci-22.3-b07, mixed mode, sharing)

如果是在mac环境下，还需要执行下面的命令来解除对graalvm的隔离限制：

 sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/graalvm

否则在使用中就会遇到下面的问题：

添加Native Image支持

我们安装GraalVM的目的就是使用它的native Image特性。native image是一个单独的jar包，我们可以执行下面的命令来进行安装：

gu install native-image

其中gu就是/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/graalvm-ee-java17-22.3.0/Contents/Home/bin中的命令。

下载的过程中还需要输入一个有效的邮件，并进行邮箱校验。然后一路ENTER就可以了。

当然，你还可以把Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition Native Image下载到本地，然后使用gu install -L来进行本地安装。

好了，到目前为止，一切准备妥当，我们接下来看看如何把spring boot3的应用打包成为native image吧。

构建spring boot3应用

这里我们使用的是maven，所以需要添加下面的spring boot3的依赖：

 <parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.1</version>
        <relativePath/> 
    </parent>

因为要构建native image，所以我们还需要用到下面的一个native-maven-plugin插件：

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.graalvm.buildtools</groupId>
                <artifactId>native-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            </plugin>

这里我们只创建了一个非常简单的main方法：

@SpringBootApplication
public class NativeImageApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(NativeImageApplication.class, args);
    }
}

然后，我们尝试运行 mvn native:build来构建spring boot3应用程序。

记得在build之前一定先要编译好项目。

很可惜，你会发现下面的异常：

[INFO] --- native-maven-plugin:0.9.19:build (default-cli) @ native-image --- [WARNING] 'native:build' goal is deprecated. Use 'native:compile-no-fork' instead. [INFO] Found GraalVM installation from JAVA_HOME variable. ... Error: Please specify class (or <module>/<mainclass>) containing the main entry point method. (see --help)

从上面的异常我们发现了两个问题，第一个问题是一个警告，它推荐我们使用native:compile-no-fork。

第二个问题是说找不到mainclass,根据异常信息，我们在pom的plugin中添加下面的配置信息，如下所示：

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.graalvm.buildtools</groupId>
                <artifactId>native-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>
                    <!-- imageName用于设置生成的二进制文件名称 -->
                    <imageName>${project.artifactId}</imageName>
                    <!-- mainClass用于指定main方法类路径 -->
                    <mainClass>com.flydean.nativeimage.NativeImageApplication</mainClass>
                    <buildArgs>
                        --no-fallback
                    </buildArgs>
                </configuration>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>build-native</id>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>compile-no-fork</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <phase>package</phase>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>

然后重新运行mvn native:compile-no-fork：

经过漫长的等待，我们终于build完成了。

因为我们的artifactId叫做native-image,所以最终在target目录下面生成了一个叫做native-image的可执行文件：

. ├── classes │   ├── application.properties │   └── com │   └── flydean │   └── nativeimage │   └── NativeImageApplication.class ├── generated-sources │   └── annotations ├── generated-test-sources │   └── test-annotations ├── maven-archiver │   └── pom.properties ├── maven-status │   └── maven-compiler-plugin │   ├── compile │   │   └── default-compile │   │   ├── createdFiles.lst │   │   └── inputFiles.lst │   └── testCompile │   └── default-testCompile │   ├── createdFiles.lst │   └── inputFiles.lst ├── native-image ├── native-image-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar ├── native-image-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.original ├── native-image.build_artifacts.txt ├── surefire-reports │   ├── TEST-com.flydean.nativeimage.NativeImageApplicationTests.xml │   └── com.flydean.nativeimage.NativeImageApplicationTests.txt └── test-classes └── com └── flydean └── nativeimage └── NativeImageApplicationTests.class 20 directories, 14 files

如果你这时候运行target/native-image,那么很可能得到下面的异常：

[main] DEBUG org.springframework.context.aot.AotApplicationContextInitializer - Initializing ApplicationContext with AOT [main] ERROR org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication - Application run failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not find class [com.flydean.nativeimage.NativeImageApplication__ApplicationContextInitializer] at org.springframework.util.ClassUtils.resolveClassName(ClassUtils.java:333)

这是因为我们缺少一些spring boot的AOT元文件信息，正确的做法是使用下面的命令：

mvn clean package -Pnative

它实际上执行的是下面的几个命令：

mvn spring-boot:process-aot
mvn spring-boot:process-test-aot
mvn spring-boot:build-image

最终我们得到编译好的native-image信息，运行得到下面的结果：

2023-01-05T17:07:11.692+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] c.f.nativeimage.NativeImageApplication : Starting AOT-processed NativeImageApplication using Java 17.0.5 with PID 69299 (/Users/wayne/data/git/ddean2009/learn-springboot3/learn-springboot3/native-image/target/native-image started by wayne in /Users/wayne/data/git/ddean2009/learn-springboot3/learn-springboot3/native-image) 2023-01-05T17:07:11.693+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] c.f.nativeimage.NativeImageApplication : No active profile set, falling back to 1 default profile: "default" 2023-01-05T17:07:11.709+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] o.s.b.w.embedded.tomcat.TomcatWebServer : Tomcat initialized with port(s): 8080 (http) 2023-01-05T17:07:11.710+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] o.apache.catalina.core.StandardService : Starting service [Tomcat] 2023-01-05T17:07:11.710+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] o.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine : Starting Servlet engine: [Apache Tomcat/10.1.4] 2023-01-05T17:07:11.717+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] o.a.c.c.C.[Tomcat].[localhost].[/] : Initializing Spring embedded WebApplicationContext 2023-01-05T17:07:11.717+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] w.s.c.ServletWebServerApplicationContext : Root WebApplicationContext: initialization completed in 24 ms 2023-01-05T17:07:11.729+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] o.s.b.w.embedded.tomcat.TomcatWebServer : Tomcat started on port(s): 8080 (http) with context path '' 2023-01-05T17:07:11.729+08:00 INFO 69299 --- [ main] c.f.nativeimage.NativeImageApplication : Started NativeImageApplication in 0.053 seconds (process running for 0.072)

总结

从运行情况来看，native-image的启动速度非常快，应该可以提升不少的性能。

感兴趣的小伙伴赶紧用起来吧。
