# Unleash Client SDK for Java

[![Build Status](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash-java-sdk/workflows/Build/badge.svg)](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash-java-sdk/actions)
[![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/github/Unleash/unleash-client-java/badge.svg?branch=main)](https://coveralls.io/github/Unleash/unleash-client-java?branch=main)
[![Maven Central](https://img.shields.io/maven-central/v/io.getunleash/unleash-client-java)](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.getunleash/unleash-client-java)

Unleash is a private, secure, and scalable [feature management platform](https://www.getunleash.io/) built to reduce the risk of releasing new features and accelerate software development. This server-side Java SDK is designed to help you integrate with Unleash and evaluate feature flags inside your application.

You can use this client with [Unleash Enterprise](https://www.getunleash.io/pricing?utm_source=readme&utm_medium=java) or [Unleash Open Source](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash).

## Java Version Compatibility

As of version 11, this library requires Java 11 or newer.

- Java 8+ is supported on versions 10.2.x and below

- Java 11+ is required starting from version 11 of the SDK

If you're using Java 8, please pin your dependency to 10.2.2 or earlier.

## Getting started

This section shows you how to get started quickly and explains some common configuration scenarios. For a full overview of Unleash configuration options, check out [the _Configuration options_ section](#configuration-options).

### Step 1: Install the Unleash Java SDK

You need to add the Unleash SDK as a dependency for your project. Here's how you would add it to your `pom.xml` and `build.gradle` file:

**pom.xml**
```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>io.getunleash</groupId>
    <artifactId>unleash-client-java</artifactId>
    <version>Latest version here</version>
</dependency>
```
**build.gradle**
```gradle
 implementation("io.getunleash:unleash-client-java:$unleashedVersion")
```

### Step 2: Create a new Unleash instance

---

**⚠️ Important:** In almost every case, you only want a **single, shared instance of the `Unleash`  class (a *singleton*)** in your application. You would typically use a dependency injection framework (such as Spring or Guice) to inject it where you need it. Having multiple instances of the client in your application could lead to inconsistencies and performance degradation.

To help you detect cases where you configure multiple instances by mistake, the SDK will print an error message if you create multiple instances with the same configuration values. You can also tell Unleash to fail when this happens by setting the constructor parameter `failOnMultipleInstantiations` to `true`.

---

When instantiating an Unleash client, you can choose to do it either **synchronously** or **asynchronously**:
The SDK will synchronize with the Unleash API on initialization, so it can take a few hundred milliseconds for the client to reach the correct state.
This is usually not an issue and Unleash will do this in the background as soon as you initialize it.
However, if it's important that you not continue execution until the SDK has synchronized, then you should use the `synchronousFetchOnInitialisation` option to block the client until it has successfully synchronized with the server.

### Example configurations

**💡 Tip:** Refer to the section on [configuration options](#configuration-options) for a more complete explanation of all the options.

Here's two examples of how you might initialize the Unleash SDK in your applications. The examples use dummy values and are almost identical. The only difference is that the first example is asynchronous, while the second example is synchronous.

**Asynchronous initialization example:**

```java
UnleashConfig config = UnleashConfig.builder()
        .appName("my.java-app")
        .instanceId("your-instance-1")
        .unleashAPI("<unleash-api-url>")
        .apiKey("<client-api-token>")
        .build();

Unleash unleash = new DefaultUnleash(config);
```

**Synchronous initialization example:**

Unleash unleash = new DefaultUnleash(config);
```

## Step 3: Use the feature toggle

With the SDK initialized, you can use the `isEnabled` method to check the state of your feature toggles. The method returns a boolean indicating whether a feature is enabled for the current request.

```java
if(unleash.isEnabled("AwesomeFeature")) {
  //do some magic
} else {
  //do old boring stuff
}
```

The `isEnabled` method also accepts a second boolean argument. The SDK uses this as a fallback value if it can't find the feature you're trying to check. For example, if `unleash.isEnabled("non-existing-toggle")` returns `false` when `"non-existing-toggle"` doesn't exist, calling `unleash.isEnabled("non-existing-toggle", true)`, will return `true`.

You can also **provide an [Unleash context](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/unleash-context)** to the `isEnabled` method. Refer to the [Unleash context](#unleash-context) section for more information about using the Unleash context in the Java SDK.

### Activation strategies

The Java client supports Unleash built-in activation strategies (such as `default`, `userWithId`, `gradualRolloutRandom`, `gradualRolloutUserId`, `gradualRolloutSessionId`, `remoteAddress`, and `applicationHostname`).

As of v10, these built-ins are evaluated by the embedded Yggdrasil engine and are not exposed as public Java strategy classes in this SDK.

Read more about the strategies in the [activation strategies reference documentation](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/activation-strategies).

#### Custom strategies
You may also specify and implement your own strategy. The specification must be registered in the Unleash UI and you must register the strategy implementation when you set up Unleash.

You can also provide a `fallbackStrategy` via `UnleashConfig` if the client receives a strategy
name it does not recognize.

```java
Strategy s1 = new MyAwesomeStrategy();
Strategy s2 = new MySuperAwesomeStrategy();
Unleash unleash = new DefaultUnleash(config, s1, s2);
```

### Unleash context

In order to use some of the common activation strategies you must provide an [Unleash context](https://docs.getunleash.io/reference/unleash-context).
This client SDK provides two ways of providing the Unleash context:

#### 1. As part of the `isEnabled` call
This is the simplest and most explicit way of providing the Unleash context.
You just add it as an argument to the `isEnabled` call.

```java
UnleashContext context = UnleashContext.builder()
  .userId("user@mail.com").build();

unleash.isEnabled("someToggle", context);
```

#### 2. Via an `UnleashContextProvider`
This is a more advanced approach, where you configure an Unleash context provider.
With a context provider, you don't need to rebuild or pass the Unleash context to every `unleash.isEnabled` call.

The provider typically binds the context to the same thread as the request.
If you use Spring, the `UnleashContextProvider` will typically be a request-scoped bean.

```java
UnleashContextProvider contextProvider = new MyAwesomeContextProvider();

UnleashConfig config = new UnleashConfig.Builder()
            .appName("java-test")
            .instanceId("instance x")
            .unleashAPI("http://unleash.herokuapp.com/api/")
            .apiKey("<client-api-token>")
            .unleashContextProvider(contextProvider)
            .build();

Unleash unleash = new DefaultUnleash(config);

// Anywhere in the code unleash will get the unleash context from your registered provider.
unleash.isEnabled("someToggle");
```

### Custom HTTP headers
If you want the client to send custom HTTP Headers with all requests to the Unleash API
you can define that by setting them via the `UnleashConfig`.

```java
UnleashConfig unleashConfig = UnleashConfig.builder()
                .appName("my-app")
                .instanceId("my-instance-1")
                .unleashAPI(unleashAPI)
                .apiKey("12312Random")
                .customHttpHeader("<name>", "<value>")
                .build();
```

### Dynamic custom HTTP headers
If you need custom HTTP headers that change during the lifetime of the client, a provider can be defined via the `UnleashConfig`.
```java
public class CustomHttpHeadersProviderImpl implements CustomHttpHeadersProvider {
    @Override
    public Map<String, String> getCustomHeaders() {
        String token = "Acquire or refresh token";
        return new HashMap() {{ put("Authorization", "Bearer "+token); }};
    }
}
```
```java
CustomHttpHeadersProvider provider = new CustomHttpHeadersProviderImpl();

UnleashConfig unleashConfig = UnleashConfig.builder()
                .appName("my-app")
                .instanceId("my-instance-1")
                .unleashAPI(unleashAPI)
                .apiKey("API token")
                .customHttpHeadersProvider(provider)
                .build();
```

### Subscriber API

> Introduced in 3.2.2

Sometimes you want to know when Unleash updates internally. This can be achieved by registering a subscriber. An example on how to configure a custom subscriber is shown below. Have a look at [UnleashSubscriber.java](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash-java-sdk/blob/main/src/main/java/io/getunleash/event/UnleashSubscriber.java) to get a complete overview of all methods you can override.

```java
UnleashConfig unleashConfig = UnleashConfig.builder()
    .appName("my-app")
    .instanceId("my-instance-1")
    .unleashAPI(unleashAPI)
    .apiKey("API token")
    .subscriber(new UnleashSubscriber() {
        @Override
        public void onReady(UnleashReady ready) {
            System.out.println("Unleash is ready");
        }
        @Override
        public void togglesFetched(FeatureToggleResponse toggleResponse) {
            System.out.println("Fetch toggles with status: " + toggleResponse.getStatus());
        }

@Override
        public void togglesBackedUp(ToggleCollection toggleCollection) {
            System.out.println("Backup stored.");
        }

})
    .build();
```

### Options

- **appName** - Required. Should be a unique name identifying the client application using Unleash.
- **synchronousFetchOnInitialisation** - Allows the user to specify that the Unleash client should do one synchronous fetch to the `unleash-api` at initialisation. This will slow down the initialisation (the client must wait for an HTTP response). If the `unleash-api` is unavailable the client will silently move on and assume the api will be available later.
- **disablePolling** - Stops the client from polling. If used without synchronousFetchOnInitialisation will cause the client to never fetch toggles from the `unleash-api`.
- **fetchTogglesInterval** - Sets the interval (in seconds) between each poll to the `unleash-api`. Set this to `0` to do a single fetch and then stop refreshing while the process lives.

### HTTP Proxy with Authentication

The Unleash Java client uses `HttpURLConnection` as its HTTP client, which automatically recognizes common JVM proxy settings such as `http.proxyHost` and
`http.proxyPort`. If your proxy does not require authentication, it works without additional configuration. However, if you have to use Basic Authentication, settings such as `http.proxyUser` and `http.proxyPassword` are not recognized by default.
To enable Basic Authentication for an HTTP proxy, enable the following option on the configuration builder:

```java
UnleashConfig config = UnleashConfig.builder()
    .appName("my-app")
    .unleashAPI("http://unleash.org")
    .apiKey("API token")
    .enableProxyAuthenticationByJvmProperties()
    .build();
```

### Toggle fetcher

The Unleash Java client supports using your own toggle fetcher.
The Config builder has been expanded to accept an `io.getunleash.util.UnleashFeatureFetcherFactory` which should be a `Function<UnleashConfig, FeatureFetcher>`.
If you want to use OkHttp instead of HttpURLConnection you'll need a dependency on okhttp

```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.squareup.okhttp3</groupId>
    <artifactId>okhttp</artifactId>
    <version>4.10+</version>
</dependency>
```

Then you can change your config to
```java
UnleashConfig config = UnleashConfig.builder()
    .appName("my-app")
    .unleashAPI("http://unleash.org")
    .apiKey("API token")
    .unleashFeatureFetcherFactory(OkHttpFeatureFetcher::new)
    .build();
```

This will then start using OkHttp instead of HttpURLConnection.

### Metrics sender
The Unleash Java client supports using your own metrics sender.
The Config builder has been expanded to accept a `io.getunleash.util.MetricsSenderFactory` which should be a `Function<UnleashConfig, MetricsSender>`.

If you want to use OkHttp instead of HttpURLConnection you'll need a dependency on okhttp

```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.squareup.okhttp3</groupId>
    <artifactId>okhttp</artifactId>
    <version>4.10+</version>
</dependency>
```

Then you can change your config to
```java
UnleashConfig config = UnleashConfig.builder()
    .appName("my-app")
    .unleashAPI("http://unleash.org")
    .customHttpHeader("Authorization", "API token")
    .unleashMetricsSenderFactory(OkHttpMetricsSender::new)
    .build();
```

This will then start using OkHttp instead of HttpURLConnection to send metrics.

## Impact metrics

Impact metrics are lightweight, application-level time-series metrics stored and visualized directly inside Unleash. They allow you to connect specific application data, such as request counts, error rates, or memory usage, to your feature flags and release plans.

Use impact metrics to validate feature impact and automate your release process. For example, you can monitor usage patterns or performance to see if a feature is meeting its goals. By combining impact metrics with release templates, you can reduce manual release operations and automate milestone progression based on metric thresholds.

The SDK automatically attaches the following context labels to your metrics: `appName`, `environment`, and `origin` (for example, `origin=sdk` or `origin=Edge`).

### Counters

Use counters for cumulative values that only increase, such as the total number of requests or errors.

```java
UnleashConfig config =
        UnleashConfig.builder()
                .appName("my-java-app")
                .instanceId("instance-1")
                .unleashAPI("https://YOUR-API-URL")
                .apiKey("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")
                .build();

Unleash unleash = new DefaultUnleash(config);

unleash.getImpactMetrics()
        .defineCounter("request_count", "Total number of HTTP requests processed");

unleash.getImpactMetrics().incrementCounter("request_count");
```

### Gauges

Use gauges for point-in-time values that can go up or down.

```java
unleash.getImpactMetrics()
        .defineGauge("total_users", "Total number of registered users");

unleash.getImpactMetrics().updateGauge("total_users", userCount);
```

### Histograms

Histograms measure value distribution (request duration, response size).

```java
unleash.getImpactMetrics()
        .defineHistogram("request_time_ms", "Time taken to process a request in milliseconds", List.of(50.0, 100.0, 200.0, 500.0, 1000.0));

unleash.getImpactMetrics().observeHistogram("request_time_ms", 125);
```

Impact metrics are batched and sent on the same interval as regular SDK metrics. They are ingested via the regular metrics endpoint.

## Local backup
By default unleash-client fetches the feature toggles from unleash-server every 10s, and stores the
result in `unleash-repo.json` which is located in the `java.io.tmpdir` directory. This means that if
the unleash-server becomes unavailable, the unleash-client will still be able to toggle the features
based on the values stored in `unleash-repo.json`.

As a result of this, the second argument of `isEnabled` will be returned in two cases:
- When `unleash-repo.json` does not exist.
- When the named feature toggle does not exist in `unleash-repo.json`.

## Bootstrapping

Unleash supports bootstrapping from a JSON string. You can configure your own custom provider implementing the `ToggleBootstrapProvider` interface's single method `String read()`. This should return a JSON string in the same format returned from `/api/client/features`.

Example bootstrap files can be found in the JSON files located in [src/test/resources](src/test/resources).

This setup can be useful for applications deployed to ephemeral containers or restricted  file systems where Unleash's need to write the backup file is not desirable or possible.

### Provided Bootstrappers

#### ToggleBootstrapFileProvider

Unleash comes configured with a `ToggleBootstrapFileProvider` which implements the `ToggleBootstrapProvider` interface. This is the default implementation used if not overridden via the `setToggleBootstrapProvider` on UnleashConfig.

##### Configure ToggleBootstrapFileProvider

The `ToggleBootstrapFileProvider` reads the file located at the path defined by the `UNLEASH_BOOTSTRAP_FILE` environment variable. It supports both `classpath:` paths and absolute file paths.

## Unit testing
You might want to control the state of the toggles during unit testing. Unleash comes with a ```FakeUnleash``` implementation for doing this.

Example usage:

```java
// example 1: everything on
FakeUnleash fakeUnleash = new FakeUnleash();
fakeUnleash.enableAll();

assertThat(fakeUnleash.isEnabled("unknown"), is(true));
assertThat(fakeUnleash.isEnabled("unknown2"), is(true));

// example 2
FakeUnleash fakeUnleash = new FakeUnleash();
fakeUnleash.enable("t1", "t2");

assertThat(fakeUnleash.isEnabled("t1"), is(true));
assertThat(fakeUnleash.isEnabled("t2"), is(true));
assertThat(fakeUnleash.isEnabled("unknown"), is(false));

// example 3: variants
FakeUnleash fakeUnleash = new FakeUnleash();
fakeUnleash.enable("t1", "t2");
fakeUnleash.setVariant("t1", new Variant("a", (String) null, true, true));

assertThat(fakeUnleash.getVariant("t1").getName(), is("a"));
```

- For IDE-specific formatting support:
  - IntelliJ: Install the [Google Java Format plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8527-google-java-format).
  - VS Code: Use the [Google Java Format extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=wx-chevalier.google-java-format).
  - Vim: Install the [vim-codefmt plugin](https://github.com/google/vim-codefmt).

## Releasing

### Deployment

- You'll need an account with [Sonatype's JIRA](https://issues.sonatype.org).
 - In addition, your account needs access to publish under io.getunleash.

### GPG signing

- You'll need GPG installed and a configured GPG key for signing the artifacts.

#### Example settings.xml

- In `~/.m2/settings.xml`, put:
```xml
<settings>

When you have set all the desired options, initialize the configuration with the `build` method.
You can then pass the configuration to the Unleash client constructor.
As an example:

```java

UnleashConfig config = UnleashConfig.builder()
            .appName("your app name")
            .instanceId("instance id")
            .unleashAPI("http://unleash.herokuapp.com/api/")
            .apiKey("API token")
            // ... more configuration options
            .build();

Unleash unleash = new DefaultUnleash(config);
```
