Customize UserDetailsRepository

Load users from a properties file

Spring Security provides a UserDetailsRepositoryResourceFactoryBean which allow you load users from a properties file to create the UserDetailsRepository for your applications.

@Bean
public UserDetailsRepositoryResourceFactoryBean userDetailsService() {
	return UserDetailsRepositoryResourceFactoryBean
		.fromResourceLocation("classpath:users.properties");
}

The content of the users.properties is similar to the following.

user=password,ROLE_USER
admin=password,ROLE_USER,ROLE_ADMIN

The key is username, the value is password, and it's roles.

Customize UserDetailsRepository

As said before, you can easily implement your own UserDetailsRepository.

Here let's use Mongo as backend store, create a User document class which implements spring security specific UserDetails interface.

@Data
@ToString
@Builder
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
@Document
class User implements UserDetails {

    @Id
    private String id;
    private String username;
    private String password;

    @Builder.Default()
    private boolean active = true;

    @Builder.Default()
    private List<String> roles = new ArrayList<>();

    @Override
    public Collection<? extends GrantedAuthority> getAuthorities() {
        return AuthorityUtils.createAuthorityList(roles.toArray(new String[roles.size()]));
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isAccountNonExpired() {
        return active;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isAccountNonLocked() {
        return active;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isCredentialsNonExpired() {
        return active;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isEnabled() {
        return active;
    }

}

Create a generic purpose Repository for User, named UserRepository.

public interface UserRepository extends ReactiveMongoRepository<User, String> {

    Mono<User> findByUsername(String username);
}

Replace the UserDetailsRepository bean declaration with the following, which connect to the real database.

@Bean
public UserDetailsRepository userDetailsRepository(UserRepository users) {
	return (username) -> {
		return users.findByUsername(username).cast(UserDetails.class);
	};
}
