Extending the Module

This section explains how to extend Atoti Limits services by adding customizations.

Overview

In general, services in Atoti Limits can be extended by:

  1. Defining a Spring Bean that implements the interface represented by the service
  2. If the default implementation is not defined with a @ConditionalOnMissingBean annotation, you will need to mark the bean as @Primary. Please raise a Jira ticket in these instances in order for us to mark the bean conditional.
  3. Importing the bean into your project

Importing Spring Beans into the Project

Customizations that override an existing default implementation will usually require importing your custom Spring Bean. The LimitsAppConfig class is the main entry-point in Atoti Limits for imports, so if you need to import your MyCustomBean class, you should do so here. For example:

@Configuration
@Import({
        // Default imports start ...
        // ...
        // ... default imports end

        // Custom imports
        MyCustomBean.class
})
public class LimitsAppConfig {
    // other code...
}
