Spring FeignClient: How to configure a load balancer like Ribbon

Question

I am using Spring FeignClient and have to support a load balancing like Spring Ribbon provides.

@FeignClient(name = "testClient", url = "${test.url}", configuration = TestConfig.class)
@RequestMapping(produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE, consumes = 
 MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
 public interface TestClient {
 }

public class TestConfig{
 @Bean
 public Client feignClient() {
    return new ApacheHttpClient(getHttpClient());
  }
}

I want to understand how can I add Ribbon to the configuration.

Answer 1

You can set the configurations properties like so:

hello-service:
  ribbon:
    eureka:
      enabled: false
    listOfServers: localhost:8090,localhost:9092,localhost:9999

without eureka:

stores:
  ribbon:
    listOfServers: example.com,google.com
