@autowired for JwtBuilder class is not working, error: required a bean of type 'io.jsonwebtoken.JwtBuilder' that could not be found

I am trying to autowire the JJWT JwtBuilder which is imported from this package io.jsonwebtoken.JwtBuilder , however I am getting an error as shown below (at the end of the question)

I have fixed a similar error when autowiring my own class by using a @service annotation in the beginning of my imported library, however since this is a standard library I can't add @service annotation to it

I am calling the library like this in my impl file:

import io.jsonwebtoken.JwtBuilder;
....
@Autowired
JwtBuilder jwtBuilder;

The dependency in gradle is 

compile 'io.jsonwebtoken:jjwt:0.9.0'

The error:

 APPLICATION FAILED TO START
***************************

Description:

Field jwtBuilder in ....CustomerServiceImpl required a bean of type 'io.jsonwebtoken.JwtBuilder' that could not be found.


Action:

Consider defining a bean of type 'io.jsonwebtoken.JwtBuilder' in your configuration.
Solution

  • It is expected that you create the instance of JwtBuilder using the static builder() method of Jwts class.

    JwtBuilder builder = Jwts.builder()

    You can refer following documentation.
