How fix "ConditionalOnProperty are exclusive" in Spring boot?

Question

Consider a code:

package com.hellokoding.springboot;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.condition.ConditionalOnProperty;
import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
import org.springframework.boot.context.web.SpringBootServletInitializer;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;

@SpringBootApplication
public class WebApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {

    @Bean
    @ConditionalOnProperty(prefix = "config.prefix", name = "name", value = "SOMEVALUE", matchIfMissing = true)
    public BeanOne beanOne() {
        System.out.println("ok");
        return new BeanOne();
    }
    @Bean
    @ConditionalOnProperty(prefix = "config.prefix", name = "name", value = "OTHERVALUE")
    public BeanTwo beanTwo() {
        System.out.println("ok");
        return new BeanTwo();
    }

    @Override
    protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
        return application.sources(WebApplication.class);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        SpringApplication.run(WebApplication.class, args);
    }
}

Here is a git repo with code. When I start spring boot I got exception:

What is wrong??? Oo The property is present, syntax is pretty simple and looks like in examples...

P.S. All of this looks very strage, because a lot of spring boot configs have same ConditionalOnProperty with prefix and value, if there is a bug al of them would not work.

Answer 1

The value param is aliased by name leading to this error. i.e. they are effectively the same param.

You will want to swap value to havingValue

@ConditionalOnProperty(prefix = "config.prefix", name = "name", havingValue = "OTHERVALUE")

@ConditionalOnProperty(prefix = "config.prefix", name = "name", havingValue = "SOMEVALUE", matchIfMissing = true)
