Spring Cloud Tutorial - Spring Cloud Gateway + Netflix Eureka Example

In a previous tutorial we had implemented Spring Cloud Gateway Hello World Example. In this tutorial we will be implementing Spring Cloud Gateway and get the microservices deployment url using Netflix Eureka Discovery Service. In a previous tutorial we had implemented Netflix Eureka Discovery Service. When we start a project, we usually have all the configurations in the properties file. As more and more services are developed and deployed, adding and modifying these properties become more complex. Some services might go down, while some the location might change. This manual changing of properties may create issues. Eureka Service Registration and Discovery helps in such scenarios. As all services are registered to the Eureka server and lookup done by calling the Eureka Server, any change in service locations need not be handled and is taken care of

Spring Cloud Gateway + Neflix Eureka Discovery Service

We will be modifying the code we had implemented in the previous Spring Cloud Tutorial - Spring Cloud Gateway Hello World Example.

Netflix Eureka Discovery Service Implementation

The maven project will be as follows-

The pom.xml will be as follows-

</project>

Define the application.properties as follows-

spring:
  application:
    name: eureka-discovery-service

server:

eureka:
  client:
    registerWithEureka: false
    fetchRegistry: false
    service-url:
      defaultZone: http://localhost:8083/eureka

Define the bootstrap class with the SpringBootApplication Annotation. Also here we will also be using the EnableEurekaServer annotation.
