熟悉java web开发的同学都清楚,tomcat作为一款非常流行的servlet容器,开源,流行,配置简单,不需要赘述。个人认为,web.xml作为webapp的入口,弄清楚该文件的底层解析过程,进而可以窥探tomcat的底层工作机制,搞明白tomcat对servlert规范的实现机理。
通过本文,可以知道以下部分内容
webapp部署3种部署方式
webapp web.xml解析流程
webapp Context对象信息的生成(不包括对象的生成)
总体来说,webapp部署有三种方式:XML文件描述符、WAR包、文件目录。三种方式部署的总体流程很相似,都是一个web应用分配一个线程来处理,这里统一放到与Host内部的线程池对象中(startStopExecutor),所以有时会看到在默认配置下Tomcat启动后可能有一个叫“-startStop-”的线程还会运行一段时间才结束。但浏览这三种部署方式的实现代码,里面都是构建一个Context对象,并将构建好的Context对象与Host组件关联起来。
1.三种部署方式
/** * 部署应用,该方法被org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.start()调用 * 包含3种部署方式,每个部署方式分别使用内部类,分配一个线程处理 */ protected void deployApps() { File appBase = appBase(); File configBase = configBase(); String[] filteredAppPaths = filterAppPaths(appBase.list()); // Deploy XML descriptors from configBase deployDescriptors(configBase, configBase.list()); // Deploy WARs deployWARs(appBase, filteredAppPaths); // Deploy expanded folders deployDirectories(appBase, filteredAppPaths); }
3个部署的内部类
org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.DeployWar
org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.DeployDescriptor
org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.DeployDirectory
2.从部署webapp到解析web.xml序列图
找了很多网上资料,对从部署webapp开始,到开始解析web.xml这一段处理过程,没找到相关资料。个人就花时间整理出这个序列图,填补下这方面的空缺。通过该图,可以很清楚的知道,这部分主要完成了2件事:
(1)启动StandardContext,并将context对象添加到StandardHost对象中。
(2)通过触发事件机制,开始Context的解析过程。
3.web.xml解析过程
接第二步骤中序列图,开始分析web.xml的解析过程。从ContextConfig开始。
3.1 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.configureStart()
/** * Process a "contextConfig" event for this Context. */ protected synchronized void configureStart() { // Called from StandardContext.start() webConfig(); if (ok) { validateSecurityRoles(); } // Configure an authenticator if we need one if (ok) authenticatorConfig(); // Make our application available if no problems were encountered if (ok) context.setConfigured(true); else { log.error(sm.getString("contextConfig.unavailable")); context.setConfigured(false); } }
该方法通过调用webConfig(),具体完成解析工作,此外完成了安全验证相关内容。
3.2 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.webConfig()方法
/** * Scan the web.xml files that apply to the web application and merge them * using the rules defined in the spec. For the global web.xml files, * where there is duplicate configuration, the most specific level wins. ie * an application‘s web.xml takes precedence over the host level or global * web.xml file. */ protected void webConfig() { Set<WebXml> defaults = new HashSet<WebXml>(); defaults.add(getDefaultWebXmlFragment()); WebXml webXml = createWebXml(); // Parse context level web.xml InputSource contextWebXml = getContextWebXmlSource(); parseWebXml(contextWebXml, webXml, false);//解析 ServletContext sContext = context.getServletContext(); // Ordering is important here // Step 1. Identify all the JARs packaged with the application // If the JARs have a web-fragment.xml it will be parsed at this // point. Map<String,WebXml> fragments = processJarsForWebFragments(webXml); // Step 2. Order the fragments. Set<WebXml> orderedFragments = null; orderedFragments = WebXml.orderWebFragments(webXml, fragments, sContext); // Step 3. Look for ServletContainerInitializer implementations if (ok) { processServletContainerInitializers(); } // Step 5. Process JARs for annotations - only need to process // those fragments we are going to use if (ok) { processAnnotations( orderedFragments, webXml.isMetadataComplete()); } // Cache, if used, is no longer required so clear it javaClassCache.clear(); } // Step 6. Merge web-fragment.xml files into the main web.xml // Step 7. Apply global defaults webXml.merge(defaults); // Step 8. Convert explicitly mentioned jsps to servlets convertJsps(webXml); // Step 9. Apply merged web.xml to Context webXml.configureContext(context); // Step 9a. Make the merged web.xml available to other // components, // Always need to look for static resources // Step 10. Look for static resources packaged in JARs processResourceJARs(resourceJars); // See also StandardContext.resourcesStart() for // WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/resources configuration // Step 11. Apply the ServletContainerInitializer config to the // context context.addServletContainerInitializer( entry.getKey(), entry.getValue()); }
通过源码中的注释,step1 到step11。主要工作包含:1.解析xml,2.合并xml,3.组装Context,4.编译JSP。具体步骤,参考说明
扫描应用打包的所有Jar来检索Jar包里面的web.xml配置并解析,放入内存。
对这些已经检索到的web配置进行排序。
基于SPI机制查找ServletContainerInitializer的实现,写web中间件的同学注意了,了解SPI以及 ServletContainerInitializer机制这对于你来说可能是一个很好的知识点。
处理/WEB-INF/classes下面的类的注解,某个版本Servlet支持注解方式的配置,可以猜测相关事宜就是在这里干的。
处理Jar包中的注解类。
将web配置按照一定规则合并到一起。
应用全局默认配置,还记得Tomcat包下面的conf文件夹下面有个web.xml配置文件吧。
将JSP转换为Servlet,这让我想起了若干年前对JSP的理解。
将web配置应用到Servlet上下文,也即Servlet容器。
将配置信息保存起来以供其他组件访问,使得其他组件不需要再次重复上面的步骤去获取配置信息了。
检索Jar包中的静态资源。
将ServletContainerInitializer配置到上下文。
3.3 org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.parseWebXml方法
/** * Parses the given source and stores the parsed data in the given web.xml * representation. The byte stream will be closed at the end of the parse * operation. * * @param source Input source containing the XML data to be parsed * @param dest The object representation of common elements of web.xml and * web-fragment.xml * @param fragment Specifies whether the source is web-fragment.xml or * web.xml */ protected void parseWebXml(InputSource source, WebXml dest, boolean fragment) { XmlErrorHandler handler = new XmlErrorHandler(); Digester digester; WebRuleSet ruleSet; if (fragment) { digester = webFragmentDigester; ruleSet = webFragmentRuleSet; } else { digester = webDigester; ruleSet = webRuleSet; } digester.push(dest); digester.setErrorHandler(handler); digester.parse(source); }
使用Digester 对象即系web.xml,并将结果保存到WebXml对象中。
3.4 Digester的解析规则
(1)构造Digester.createWebXmlDigester
public void createWebXmlDigester(boolean namespaceAware, boolean validation) { boolean blockExternal = context.getXmlBlockExternal(); webRuleSet = new WebRuleSet(false); webDigester = DigesterFactory.newDigester(validation, namespaceAware, webRuleSet, blockExternal); webDigester.getParser(); webFragmentRuleSet = new WebRuleSet(true); webFragmentDigester = DigesterFactory.newDigester(validation, namespaceAware, webFragmentRuleSet, blockExternal); webFragmentDigester.getParser(); }
(2)配置解析规则 WebRuleSet.addRuleInstances
/** * <p>Add the set of Rule instances defined in this RuleSet to the * specified <code>Digester</code> instance, associating them with * our namespace URI (if any). This method should only be called * by a Digester instance.</p> * * @param digester Digester instance to which the new Rule instances * should be added. */ @Override public void addRuleInstances(Digester digester) { digester.addRule(fullPrefix, new SetPublicIdRule("setPublicId")); digester.addRule(fullPrefix, new IgnoreAnnotationsRule()); digester.addRule(fullPrefix, new VersionRule()); // Required for both fragments and non-fragments digester.addRule(fullPrefix + "/absolute-ordering", absoluteOrdering); digester.addRule(fullPrefix + "/ordering", relativeOrdering); if (fragment) { // web-fragment.xml digester.addRule(fullPrefix + "/name", name); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/ordering/after/name", "addAfterOrdering", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/ordering/after/others", "addAfterOrderingOthers"); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/ordering/before/name", "addBeforeOrdering", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/ordering/before/others", "addBeforeOrderingOthers"); } else { // web.xml digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/absolute-ordering/name", "addAbsoluteOrdering", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/absolute-ordering/others", "addAbsoluteOrderingOthers"); } digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/context-param", "addContextParam", 2); digester.addCallParam(fullPrefix + "/context-param/param-name", 0); digester.addCallParam(fullPrefix + "/context-param/param-value", 1); digester.addObjectCreate(fullPrefix + "/filter", "org.apache.catalina.deploy.FilterDef"); digester.addSetNext(fullPrefix + "/filter", "addFilter", "org.apache.catalina.deploy.FilterDef"); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/description", "setDescription", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/display-name", "setDisplayName", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/filter-class", "setFilterClass", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/filter-name", "setFilterName", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/icon/large-icon", "setLargeIcon", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/icon/small-icon", "setSmallIcon", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/async-supported", "setAsyncSupported", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter/init-param", "addInitParameter", 2); digester.addCallParam(fullPrefix + "/filter/init-param/param-name", 0); digester.addCallParam(fullPrefix + "/filter/init-param/param-value", 1); digester.addObjectCreate(fullPrefix + "/filter-mapping", "org.apache.catalina.deploy.FilterMap"); digester.addSetNext(fullPrefix + "/filter-mapping", "addFilterMapping", "org.apache.catalina.deploy.FilterMap"); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter-mapping/filter-name", "setFilterName", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter-mapping/servlet-name", "addServletName", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter-mapping/url-pattern", "addURLPattern", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/filter-mapping/dispatcher", "setDispatcher", 0); digester.addCallMethod(fullPrefix + "/listener/listener-class", "addListener", 0); ... }
在这个方法里,可以看到熟悉的“/servlet/servlet-name”,"/listener/listener-class"等等。稍微懂点Digester解析语法的基础的朋友,立刻可以知道这儿就是解析规则所在,Digester解析web.xml规则都是在此配置的。进一步梳理下,可以弄明白servlet,filter等重要对象的数据载体。
标签 | 数据载体类 |
/filter | org.apache.catalina.deploy.FilterDef |
/error-page | org.apache.catalina.deploy.ErrorPage |
/servlet | org.apache.catalina.deploy.ServletDef |
/filter-mapping | org.apache.catalina.deploy.FilterMap |
/login-config | org.apache.catalina.deploy.LoginConfig |
/session-config | org.apache.catalina.deploy.SessionConfig |
... | ... |
部分私有内部Rule列表
通过分析,可以知道web.xml通过解析之后,配置信息都保存在WebXml对象中了。
WebXml中持有FilterMap,ServletDef,FilterDef等等对象的聚集信息。接下来tomcat就可以按照servlet规范初始化里面的组件了,有空将进一步介绍。
