How to configure Shiro with Spring Boot

Question

I have a Spring MVC web application that uses Shiro authentication using Spring configuration rather than a shiro.ini.

I want to transition to a Spring Boot application.

Answer 1

Well, it seems that the lack of something, java config like this:

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.Filter;
import org.apache.shiro.realm.text.PropertiesRealm;
import org.apache.shiro.spring.LifecycleBeanPostProcessor;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.AnonymousFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.FormAuthenticationFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.LogoutFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.UserFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authz.RolesAuthorizationFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.mgt.DefaultWebSecurityManager;
import org.apache.shiro.web.mgt.WebSecurityManager;

@Bean(name = "shiroFilter")
public ShiroFilterFactoryBean shiroFilter() {
    ShiroFilterFactoryBean shiroFilter = new ShiroFilterFactoryBean();
    shiroFilter.setLoginUrl("/login");
    shiroFilter.setSuccessUrl("/index");
    shiroFilter.setUnauthorizedUrl("/forbidden");
    Map<String, String> filterChainDefinitionMapping = new HashMap<String, String>();
    filterChainDefinitionMapping.put("/", "anon");
    filterChainDefinitionMapping.put("/home", "authc,roles[guest]");
    filterChainDefinitionMapping.put("/admin", "authc,roles[admin]");
    shiroFilter.setFilterChainDefinitionMap(filterChainDefinitionMapping);
    shiroFilter.setSecurityManager(securityManager());
    Map<String, Filter> filters = new HashMap<String, Filter>();
    filters.put("anon", new AnonymousFilter());
    filters.put("authc", new FormAuthenticationFilter());
    filters.put("logout", new LogoutFilter());
    filters.put("roles", new RolesAuthorizationFilter());
    filters.put("user", new UserFilter());
    shiroFilter.setFilters(filters);
    System.out.println(shiroFilter.getFilters().size());
    return shiroFilter;
}

@Bean(name = "securityManager")
public SecurityManager securityManager() {
    DefaultWebSecurityManager securityManager = new DefaultWebSecurityManager();
    securityManager.setRealm(realm());
    return securityManager;
}

@Bean(name = "realm")
@DependsOn("lifecycleBeanPostProcessor")
public PropertiesRealm realm() {
    PropertiesRealm propertiesRealm = new PropertiesRealm();
    propertiesRealm.init();
    return propertiesRealm;
}

@Bean
public LifecycleBeanPostProcessor lifecycleBeanPostProcessor() {
    return new LifecycleBeanPostProcessor();
}

Answer 2

lenicliu gave great information, since I can't comment on his answer because I don't have enough reputation. I would like to add all the imports I had to make for his code to actually compile (maybe useful for noobies on Shiro, like me).

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.Filter;
import org.apache.shiro.realm.text.PropertiesRealm;
import org.apache.shiro.spring.LifecycleBeanPostProcessor;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.AnonymousFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.FormAuthenticationFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.LogoutFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.UserFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authz.RolesAuthorizationFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.mgt.DefaultWebSecurityManager;
import org.apache.shiro.web.mgt.WebSecurityManager;
