Dependency injection with Jersey 2.0

by

You need to define an AbstractBinder and register it in your JAX-RS application. The binder specifies how the dependency injection should create your classes.

public class MyApplicationBinder extends AbstractBinder {
    @Override
    protected void configure() {
        bind(MyService.class).to(MyService.class);
    }
}

When @Inject is detected on a parameter or field of type MyService.class it is instantiated using the class MyService. To use this binder, it need to be registered with the JAX-RS application. In your web.xml, define a JAX-RS application like this:

<servlet>
  <servlet-name>MyApplication</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
  <init-param>
    <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
    <param-value>com.mypackage.MyApplication</param-value>
  </init-param>
  <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>MyApplication</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Implement the MyApplication class (specified above in the init-param).

public class MyApplication extends ResourceConfig {
    public MyApplication() {
        register(new MyApplicationBinder());
        packages(true, "com.mypackage.rest");
    }
}

The binder specifying dependency injection is registered in the constructor of the class, and we also tell the application where to find the REST resources (in your case, MyResource) using the packages() method call.
