MongoTemplate autowiring

[joseph Williams]

I can't for the life of me get my maven project to create my bean for mongoTemplate for Autowiring. Can someone help this poor soul of a programmer?
Here is the error I keep getting:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'categoryController': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Business.services.CatergoryService com.sthuf.app.STHUF_WebService.rest.controller.CategoryController.catergoryService; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'categoryService': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Domain.repository.CategoryRepository com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Business.services.CategoryEventHandler.categoryRepository; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'categoryRepositoryImpl': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoOperations com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Domain.repository.CategoryRepositoryImpl.mongoOperations; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoOperations] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Here is the applicationContext that is stored in my src>main>resources>Meta-inf folder:

Below is the class that I am trying to autowire this bad boy in. Pretend that It says MongoTemplate instead of MongoOperations. I tried two ways...
one to autowire and the other to just get it through a context and neither are working:

package com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Domain.repository;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoOperations;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Criteria;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Query;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

import com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Domain.domain.UserCategories;

@Repository
public class CategoryRepositoryImpl implements CategoryRepository{
	
	/*ConfigurableApplicationContext context =  new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("META-INF/applicationContextDomain.xml");
	MongoTemplate mongoTemplate = (MongoTemplate)context.getBean("mongoTemplate");
	*/
	@Autowired
	MongoOperations mongoOperations;
	
	Query searchUserCategoryQuery;
	
	public ArrayList<UserCategories> addUserCat(UserCategories userCategories){
		
		mongoOperations.save(userCategories);
		//might need to fix
		searchUserCategoryQuery
		= new Query(Criteria.where("userId").is(userCategories.getUserId()));
		ArrayList<UserCategories> userCategoriesResponse = 
				(ArrayList<UserCategories>) mongoOperations.find(searchUserCategoryQuery,UserCategories.class);
		return userCategoriesResponse;
		
	}

}

I even tried to do a application config java class to get the mongotemplate set. Which explains the MongoOperations I was trying to use:

package com.sthuf.app.STHUF_Domain;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor;
import org.springframework.data.authentication.UserCredentials;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoFactoryBean;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoOperations;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate;

import com.mongodb.Mongo;



@Configuration
public class AppConfig {

	public @Bean MongoOperations mongoTemplate(Mongo mongo) {
		UserCredentials userCredentials = new UserCredentials("Dat user", "Dat password");
		MongoTemplate mongoTemplate = new MongoTemplate(mongo, "Dat DB",userCredentials);
		return mongoTemplate;
	}

	/*
	 * Factory bean that creates the Mongo instance
	 */
	public @Bean MongoFactoryBean mongo() {
		MongoFactoryBean mongo = new MongoFactoryBean();
		mongo.setHost("Dat Host");
		mongo.setPort(Dat port);
		return mongo;
	}

	/*
	 * Use this post processor to translate any MongoExceptions thrown in @Repository annotated classes
	 */
	public @Bean PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor persistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor() {
		return new PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor();
	}

}

On last thing I was going to try but stopped because I didn't know how to set the host and all the stuff doing it this way:

public interface CommentsRepository extends MongoRepository<InventoryComments, String>{

}

^I looked at so many examples and still can't get this thing to autowire in so I can connect to my mongodb. If you have any questions please ask. I can autowire everything else in my project but I can't seem to get this mongoTemplate to follow suit.

Joseph,

It seems like you are trying to mix XML based configuration and Java based configuration which might be causing problems. I've never mixed and matched it like this. Can you try to declare MongoTemplate in XML and see if it solves the problem?

[joseph Williams]

The Application Context wasn't working for Jack so I just used a java bean class to get it to map correctly.
