System.getproperty("spring.profiles.active") always getting Null in JPA Entity Listeners

Question

I am trying to get Spring active profile in JPA Entity Listener using System.getproperty("spring.profiles.active"). But it is always returning Null profile. However I have checked on server and profile is correctly configured.

I have tried to get Spring active profile using Environment but in the listener, I am unable to @Autowired Environment also.

    @PostUpdate

    public void methodInvoked afterUpdate(Example example){

    String activeProfile = System.getproperty("spring.profiles.active");  

    }

Any guidance please !

You should use Environment bean while injecting it as described in this answer. SpringBeanAutowiringSupport will work if you are building a web application:

@Autowired
private Environment env;

@PostUpdate
public void methodInvoked afterUpdate(Example example) {
  SpringBeanAutowiringSupport.processInjectionBasedOnCurrentContext(this);
  String[] activeProfile = env.getActiveProfiles();

}
