Resource not injecting Datasource from web.xml - Java Framework - Payara Micro - NullPointerException


My Payara REST API is working fine without DB Connection, and also Postgres localhost connection works fine through DriverManager i.e.:

Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/postgres", "postgres", "pass@123")

However, Datasource for postgresql in web.xml & Resource is throwing NullPointerException in below code:

public class AppService {
    @Resource(name="java:global/esWf")
    DataSource ds;
    
    public Response test ( 
    ...
    Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
    ...

WEB-INF/web.xml: -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

     <password>pass@123</password>
     <property>
         <name>fish.payara.slow-query-threshold-in-seconds</name>
         <value>5</value>
     </property>
    </data-source>
</web-app>

I have also tried replacing url with separate elements for server, port, db name!

This is first time I am trying to connect via Datasource & Resource, and could be am missing something minor!

Solution

  • This looks like the same issue as in resource injection in cdi bean.

    Injection using @Resource doesn't work in plain CDI beans and JAX-RS resources. It only works in enterprise beans.

    You have 2 options:

    @Stateless
    @RequestScoped
    @Path("app")
    public class AppService {
        @Resource(name="java:global/esWf")
        DataSource ds;
        
        public Response test ( 
    
    @Qualifier
    @Retention(RUNTIME)
    @Target({METHOD, FIELD, PARAMETER, TYPE})
    public @interface Eswf {
    }
    ---------------
    @RequestScoped
    public DsProducer {
      @Produces
      @Resource(name="java:global/esWf")
      @Eswf
      Datasource eswfDatasource;
    }
    ------------------
    @RequestScoped
    @Path("app")
    public class AppService {
        @Inject
        @Eswf
        DataSource ds;
        
        public Response test ( 
    
    

    P.S. I think that you also need to change the JNDI name to use the java:app/ namespace instad of java:global/ because the DS should be available only to the deployed application. You can test whether you can retrieve the DS by JNDI name using `new InitialContext().lookup("java:global/esWf"). That should work anywhere in your application, not only in EJBs.
