一、引言
海外商城从印度做起，慢慢的会有一些其他国家的诉求，这个时候需要我们针对当前的商城做一个改造，可以支撑多个国家的商城，这里会涉及多个问题，多语言，多国家，多时区，本地化等等。在多国家的情况下如何把识别出来的国家信息传递下去，一层一层直到代码执行的最后一步。甚至还有一些多线程的场景需要处理。
二、背景技术
2.1 ThreadLocal
ThreadLocal是最容易想到了，入口识别到国家信息后，丢进ThreadLocal，这样后续代码、redis、DB等做国家区分的时候都能使用到。
这里先简单介绍一下ThreadLocal：
/**
* Sets the current thread's copy of this thread-local variable
* to the specified value. Most subclasses will have no need to
* override this method, relying solely on the {@link #initialValue}
* method to set the values of thread-locals.
*
* @param value the value to be stored in the current thread's copy of
* this thread-local.
*/
public void set(T value) {
Thread t = Thread.currentThread();
ThreadLocalMap map = getMap(t);
if (map != null)
map.set(this, value);
else
createMap(t, value);
}
/**
* Returns the value in the current thread's copy of this
* thread-local variable. If the variable has no value for the
* current thread, it is first initialized to the value returned
* by an invocation of the {@link #initialValue} method.
*
* @return the current thread's value of this thread-local
*/
public T get() {
Thread t = Thread.currentThread();
ThreadLocalMap map = getMap(t);
if (map != null) {
ThreadLocalMap.Entry e = map.getEntry(this);
if (e != null) {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
T result = (T)e.value;
return result;
}
}
return setInitialValue();
}
/**
* Get the map associated with a ThreadLocal. Overridden in
* InheritableThreadLocal.
*
* @param t the current thread
* @return the map
*/
ThreadLocalMap getMap(Thread t) {
return t.threadLocals;
}
/**
* Get the entry associated with key. This method
* itself handles only the fast path: a direct hit of existing
* key. It otherwise relays to getEntryAfterMiss. This is
* designed to maximize performance for direct hits, in part
* by making this method readily inlinable.
*
* @param key the thread local object
* @return the entry associated with key, or null if no such
*/
private Entry getEntry(ThreadLocal<?> key) {
int i = key.threadLocalHashCode & (table.length - 1);
Entry e = table[i];
if (e != null && e.get() == key)
return e;
else
return getEntryAfterMiss(key, i, e);
}
- 每一个Thread线程都有属于自己的threadLocals(ThreadLocalMap),里面有一个弱引用的Entry(ThreadLocal,Object)。
-
get方法首先通过Thread.currentThread得到当前线程，然后拿到线程的threadLocals(ThreadLocalMap)，再从Entry中取得当前线程存储的value。
-
set值的时候更改当前线程的threadLocals(ThreadLocalMap)中Entry对应的value值。
实际使用中除了同步方法之外，还有起异步线程处理的场景，这个时候就需要把ThreadLocal的内容从父线程传递给子线程，这个怎么办呢？
不急，Java 还有InheritableThreadLocal来帮我们解决这个问题。
2.2 InheritableThreadLoca
public class InheritableThreadLocal<T> extends ThreadLocal<T> {
/**
* Computes the child's initial value for this inheritable thread-local
* variable as a function of the parent's value at the time the child
* thread is created. This method is called from within the parent
* thread before the child is started.
* <p>
* This method merely returns its input argument, and should be overridden
* if a different behavior is desired.
*
* @param parentValue the parent thread's value
* @return the child thread's initial value
*/
protected T childValue(T parentValue) {
return parentValue;
}
/**
* Get the map associated with a ThreadLocal.
*
* @param t the current thread
*/
ThreadLocalMap getMap(Thread t) {
return t.inheritableThreadLocals;
}
/**
* Create the map associated with a ThreadLocal.
*
* @param t the current thread
* @param firstValue value for the initial entry of the table.
*/
void createMap(Thread t, T firstValue) {
t.inheritableThreadLocals = new ThreadLocalMap(this, firstValue);
}
}
- java.lang.Thread#init(java.lang.ThreadGroup, java.lang.Runnable, java.lang.String, long, java.security.AccessControlContext, boolean）
if (inheritThreadLocals && parent.inheritableThreadLocals != null)
this.inheritableThreadLocals =
ThreadLocal.createInheritedMap(parent.inheritableThreadLocals);
- InheritableThreadLocal操作的是inheritableThreadLocals这个变量，而不是ThreadLocal操作的threadLocals变量。
- 创建新线程的时候会检查父线程中parent.inheritableThreadLocals变量是否为null，如果不为null则复制一份parent.inheritableThreadLocals的数据到子线程的this.inheritableThreadLocals中去。
- 因为复写了getMap(Thread)和CreateMap()方法直接操作inheritableThreadLocals，这样就实现了在子线程中获取父线程ThreadLocal值。
现在在使用多线程的时候，都是通过线程池来做的，这个时候用InheritableThreadLocal可以吗？会有什么问题吗？先看下下面的代码的执行情况：
-
test
static InheritableThreadLocal<String> inheritableThreadLocal = new InheritableThreadLocal<>();
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1);
inheritableThreadLocal.set("i am a inherit parent");
executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(inheritableThreadLocal.get());
}
});
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
inheritableThreadLocal.set("i am a new inherit parent");// 设置新的值
executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(inheritableThreadLocal.get());
}
});
}
i am a inherit parent
i am a inherit parent
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1);
inheritableThreadLocal.set("i am a inherit parent");
executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(inheritableThreadLocal.get());
inheritableThreadLocal.set("i am a old inherit parent");// 子线程中设置新的值
}
});
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
inheritableThreadLocal.set("i am a new inherit parent");// 主线程设置新的值
executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(inheritableThreadLocal.get());
}
});
}
i am a inherit parent
i am a old inherit parent
这里看第一个执行结果，发现主线程第二次设置的值，没有改掉，还是第一次设置的值“i am a inherit parent”，这是什么原因呢？
再看第二个例子的执行结果，发现在第一个任务中设置的“i am a old inherit parent"的值，在第二个任务中打印出来了。这又是什么原因呢？
回过头来看看上面的源码，在线程池的情况下，第一次创建线程的时候会从父线程中copy inheritableThreadLocals中的数据，所以第一个任务成功拿到了父线程设置的”i am a inherit parent“，第二个任务执行的时候复用了第一个任务的线程，并不会触发复制父线程中的inheritableThreadLocals操作，所以即使在主线程中设置了新的值，也会不生效。同时get()方法是直接操作inheritableThreadLocals这个变量的，所以就直接拿到了第一个任务设置的值。
那遇到线程池应该怎么办呢？
2.3 TransmittableThreadLocal
TransmittableThreadLocal（TTL）这个时候就派上用场了。这是阿里开源的一个组件，我们来看看它怎么解决线程池的问题，先来一段代码，在上面的基础上修改一下，使用TransmittableThreadLocal。
static TransmittableThreadLocal<String> transmittableThreadLocal = new TransmittableThreadLocal<>();// 使用TransmittableThreadLocal
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1);
executorService = TtlExecutors.getTtlExecutorService(executorService); // 用TtlExecutors装饰线程池
transmittableThreadLocal.set("i am a transmittable parent");
executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(transmittableThreadLocal.get());
transmittableThreadLocal.set("i am a old transmittable parent");// 子线程设置新的值
}
});
System.out.println(transmittableThreadLocal.get());
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
transmittableThreadLocal.set("i am a new transmittable parent");// 主线程设置新的值
executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(transmittableThreadLocal.get());
}
});
}
i am a transmittable parent
i am a transmittable parent
i am a new transmittable parent
执行代码后发现，使用TransmittableThreadLocalTtlExecutors.getTtlExecutorService(executorService)装饰线程池之后，在每次调用任务的时，都会将当前的主线程的TransmittableThreadLocal数据copy到子线程里面，执行完成后，再清除掉。同时子线程里面的修改回到主线程时其实并没有生效。这样可以保证每次任务执行的时候都是互不干涉的。这是怎么做到的呢？来看源码。

this.capturedRef = new AtomicReference<Object>(capture());
this.runnable = runnable;
this.releaseTtlValueReferenceAfterRun = releaseTtlValueReferenceAfterRun;

com.alibaba.ttl.TtlRunnable#run
/**

@Override
public void run() {
Object captured = capturedRef.get();// 获取线程的ThreadLocalMap
if (captured == null || releaseTtlValueReferenceAfterRun && !capturedRef.compareAndSet(captured, null)) {
throw new IllegalStateException("TTL value reference is released after run!");
}
Object backup = replay(captured);// 暂存当前子线程的ThreadLocalMap到backup

runnable.run();
} finally {
restore(backup);// 恢复线程执行时被改版的Threadlocal对应的值
}

}
}
可以看下整个过程的完整时序图：
OK，既然问题都解决了，来看看实际使用吧，有两种使用，先看第一种，涉及HTTP请求、Dubbo请求和 job，采用的是数据级别的隔离。
三、 TTL 在海外商城的实际应用
3.1 不分库，分数据行 + SpringMVC
用户 HTTP 请求，首先我们要从url或者cookie中解析出国家编号，然后在TransmittableThreadLocal中存放国家信息，在 MyBatis 的拦截器中读取国家数据，进行sql改造，最终操作指定的国家数据，多线程场景下用TtlExecutors包装原有自定义线程池，保障在使用线程池的时候能够正确将国家信息传递下去。

}
对于 Dubbo 接口和无法判断国家信息的 HTTP 接口，在入参部分增加国家信息参数，通过拦截器或者手动set国家信息到TransmittableThreadLocal。
对于定时任务 job，因为所有国家都需要执行，所以会把所有国家进行遍历执行，这也可以通过简单的注解来解决。
这个版本的改造，点检测试也基本通过了，自动化脚本验证也是没问题的，不过因为业务发展问题最终没上线。
3.2 分库 + SpringBoot
后续在建设新的国家商城的时候，分库分表方案调整为每个国家独立数据库，同时整体开发框架升级到SpringBoot，我们把这套方案做了升级，总体思路是一样的，只是在实现细节上略有不同。
SpringBoot 里面的异步一般通过@Async这个注解来实现，通过自定义线程池来包装，使用时在 HTTP 请求判断locale信息的写入国家信息，后续完成切DB的操作。
对于 Dubbo 接口和无法判断国家信息的 HTTP 接口，在入参部分增加国家信息参数，通过拦截器或者手动set国家信息到TransmittableThreadLocal。
对于定时任务job，因为所有国家都需要执行，所以会把所有国家进行遍历执行，这也可以通过简单的注解和AOP来解决。
四、总结
本文从业务拓展的角度阐述了在复杂业务场景下如何通过ThreadLocal，过渡到InheritableThreadLocal，再通过TransmittableThreadLocal解决实际业务问题。因为海外的业务在不断的探索中前进，技术也在不断的探索中演进，面对这种复杂多变的情况，我们的应对策略是先做国际化，再做本地化，more global才能more local，多国家的隔离只是国际化最基本的起点，未来还有很多业务和技术等着我们去挑战。
