Store and retrieve data in Azure Database for MySQL in Spring Boot Application

This code sample demonstrates how to use passwordless connections to store and retrieve data in Azure Database for MySQL using the Spring Cloud Azure Starter JDBC MySQL.

What You Will Build

You will build an application to store and retrieve data in Azure Database for MySQL.

What You Need

• An Azure subscription
• Terraform
• Azure CLI
• JDK8 or later
• Maven
• cURL or a similar HTTP utility to test functionality.
• MySQL command line client
• You can also import the code straight into your IDE:
  • IntelliJ IDEA

Provision Azure Resources Required to Run This Sample

This sample will create Azure resources using Terraform.

Authenticate Using the Azure CLI

Terraform must authenticate to Azure to create infrastructure.

In your terminal, use the Azure CLI tool to setup your account permissions locally.

az login

Your browser window will open and you will be prompted to enter your Azure login credentials. After successful authentication, your terminal will display your subscription information. You do not need to save this output as it is saved in your system for Terraform to use.

You have logged in. Now let us find all the subscriptions to which you have access...

[
  {
    "cloudName": "AzureCloud",
    "homeTenantId": "home-Tenant-Id",
    "id": "subscription-id",
    "isDefault": true,
    "managedByTenants": [],
    "name": "Subscription-Name",
    "state": "Enabled",
    "tenantId": "0envbwi39-TenantId",
    "user": {
      "name": "[email protected]",
      "type": "user"
    }
  }
]

If you have more than one subscription, specify the subscription-id you want to use with command below:

az account set --subscription <your-subscription-id>

Provision the Resources

After login Azure CLI with your account, now you can use the terraform script to create Azure Resources.

Run with Bash	Run with Powershell
terraform -chdir=./terraform init	terraform -chdir=terraform init
terraform -chdir=./terraform apply -auto-approve	terraform -chdir=terraform apply -auto-approve

It may take a few minutes to run the script. After successful running, you will see prompt information like below:

azurecaf_name.myql_server_name: Creating...
azurecaf_name.resource_group: Creating...
...
random_password.password: Creating...
random_password.password: Creation complete after 0s [id=none]
azurerm_resource_group.main: Creating...
...
azurerm_user_assigned_identity.identity: Creating...
azurerm_mysql_flexible_server.mysql_server: Creating...
...
azurerm_mysql_flexible_server_firewall_rule.firewall_clientip: Creating...
azurerm_mysql_flexible_database.database: Creating...
azurerm_mysql_flexible_server_firewall_rule.firewall_clientip: Still creating... [10s elapsed]
azurerm_mysql_flexible_database.database: Still creating... [10s elapsed]
...
Apply complete! Resources: 8 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

You can go to Azure portal in your web browser to check the resources you created.

Create a MySQL non-admin user and grant permission

Run the following command to create a non-admin user identified by the Azure Cli login user:

Run with Bash	Run with Powershell
source ./terraform/set_up_azure_ad_user.sh	terraform\set_up_azure_ad_user.ps1

Export Output to Your Local Environment

Running the command below to export environment values:

Run with Bash	Run with Powershell
source ./terraform/setup_env.sh	terraform\setup_env.ps1

If you want to run the sample in debug mode, you can save the output value.

AZ_DATABASE_SERVER_NAME=...
AZ_DATABASE_NAME=...
AZ_MYSQL_AD_NON_ADMIN_USERNAME=...

Run Locally

Run the sample with Maven

In your terminal, run mvn clean spring-boot:run.

mvn clean spring-boot:run

Run the sample in IDEs

Replace the placeholders in the sample's application.yaml file, run the application.

Verify This Sample

1.1 Create a new "todo" item in the database.

curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --request POST \
    --data '{"description":"configuration","details":"congratulations, you have set up JDBC correctly!","done": "true"}' \
    http://127.0.0.1:8080

1.2 Retrieve the data by using a new cURL request as follows.

curl http://127.0.0.1:8080

Will return the list of "todo" items, including the item you've created, as follows:

[{"id":1,"description":"configuration","details":"congratulations, you have set up correctly!","done":true}]

Run on Azure hosting environment

This sample can only run in local, if you want run in Azure hosting environment, please refer this docs.

Clean Up Resources

After running the sample, if you don't want to run the sample anymore, remember to destroy the Azure resources you created to avoid unnecessary billing.

The terraform destroy command terminates resources managed by your Terraform project.
To destroy the resources you created.

Run with Bash	Run with Powershell
az group delete --resource-group $(terraform -chdir=./terraform output -raw resource_group_name) --yes	az group delete --resource-group $(terraform -chdir=terraform output -raw resource_group_name) --yes

Deploy to Azure Spring Apps

Now that you have the Spring Boot application running locally, it's time to move it to production. Azure Spring Apps makes it easy to deploy Spring Boot applications to Azure without any code changes. The service manages the infrastructure of Spring applications so developers can focus on their code. Azure Spring Apps provides lifecycle management using comprehensive monitoring and diagnostics, configuration management, service discovery, CI/CD integration, blue-green deployments, and more. To deploy your application to Azure Spring Apps, see Deploy your first application to Azure Spring Apps.
