Spring Batch with Spring integration

One way is explain in Spring Documents but if we want greater control and if customizations are required following another way.

In this blog we want to achive following.

At a high level

  • File inbound-channel-adapter will poll directory for any new file. If a new file comes in this folder then it will pass it to Transformer
  • Transformer will accept File as an input and Transform it to JobParameters (with file name as input-file parameter) and Pass it to Service Activator.
  • Service Activator will fetch the Job and JobLauncher object and execute the job and passes results to next end point
  • In this case next end point is again a Service activator which will simply print the status message. In real scenario this can be replaced by email or MQ or DB operation.
Following is Spring configuration
Follwoing is Batch job configuration
Following is Spring Integration configuration file.


Following will be output.
