Caused by: org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelParseException: Expression [] @31: EL1043E: Unexpected token. Expected 'colon(:)' but was 'rcurly(}

问题

I went through links like: How to pass a Map<String, String> with application.properties before posting the questions, but this doesn't fulfill my requirements.

application.properties

soap.all.endpoints={getEmployeeRoles: ['ABC', 'EFG'], getStudentRoles: ['PQR', 'XYZ']} 

I am reading using below code, but it gives me error.

@Value("#{${soap.all.endpoints}}")
private Map<String, List<String>> roles;

Error :

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanExpressionException: Expression parsing failed; nested exception is org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelParseException: Expression [{getEmployeeRoles: 'ABC', 'EFG'}] @31: EL1043E: Unexpected token. Expected 'colon(:)' but was 'rcurly(})'

回答1:

I was able to solve using

You can use the SPEL json-like syntax to write a simple map or a map of list in property file.

simple.map={'KEY1': 'value1', 'KEY2': 'value3', 'KEY3': 'value5'}

map.of.list={\
  'KEY1': {'value1','value2'}, \
  'KEY2': {'value3','value4'}, \
  'KEY3': {'value5'} \
 }

I used \ for multiline property to enhance readability

Then, in Java, you can access and parse it automatically with @Value like this.

@Value("#{${simple.map}}")
Map<String, String> simpleMap;

@Value("#{${map.of.list}}")
Map<String, List<String>> mapOfList;

Here with ${simple.map}, @Value gets the following String from the property file:

"{'KEY1': 'value1', 'KEY2': 'value3', 'KEY3': 'value5'}"

Then, it is evaluated as if it was inlined

@Value("#{{'KEY1': 'value1', 'KEY2': 'value3', 'KEY3': 'value5'}}")

You can learn more in the official documentation

I implemented

soap.all.endpoints={\
    getEmployeeRoles: {'ABC', 'EFG'}, \
    getStudentRoles: {'PQR', 'XYZ'} \
}

Code for the same.

@Value("#{${soap.all.endpoints}}")
private Map<String, List<String>> roles;
