How do I version my API with Spring MVC?

Question

Now my API urls are:

/api/users

With Spring MVC:

@RequestMapping("/api/users")

I would like to change this api:

/api-v1.0/users

Your best bet would be to use SpEL in annotation @RequestMapping

, but unfortunately this is not possible :

@RequestMapping("/api-#{appProps['version']}/users")

What are the other options?

@RequestMapping resolves from place owner values. Therefore, define PropertySourcesPlaceHolderConfigurer as shown below.

<context:property-placeholder location="classpath*:*.properties"/>

Then use the syntax as shown below.

@RequestMapping("/api-${version}/users")
