Load entire folder of Java Configuration files?

Is there any way to load a entire folder with @Configuration files, the same way XML have: <import resource="folder/*.xml" />, but with annotations?.

Solution

  • You could probably use component scanning.

    @Configuration
@ComponentScan(basePackages = "org.example.configs")
public class Config {
}

    All @Configuration classes from the org.example.configs package will be included in the context.

    Typesafe alternative:

    // org.example.configs.SubConfig
@ComponentScan(basePackageClasses = SubConfig.class)
