Feign是一個聲明式的偽Http客戶端，它使得寫Http客戶端變得更簡單。使用Feign，只需要創建一個接口並註解。它具有可插拔的註解特性，可使用Feign 註解和JAX-RS註解。Feign支持可插拔的編碼器和解碼器。Feign默認集成了Ribbon，並和Eureka結合，默認實現了負載均衡的效果。
簡而言之：

Feign 采用的是基於接口的註解
Feign 整合了ribbon

二、準備工作

繼續用上一節的工程， 啟動eureka-server，端口為8761; 啟動service-hi 兩次，端口分別為8762 、8773.

新建一個spring-boot工程，取名為serice-feign，在它的pom文件引入Feign的起步依賴spring-cloud-starter-feign、Eureka的起步依賴spring-cloud-starter-eureka、Web的起步依賴spring-boot-starter-web，代碼如下：

在工程的配置文件application.yml文件，指定程序名為service-feign，端口號為8765，服務註冊地址為http://localhost:8761/eureka/ ，代碼如下：

eureka:
  client:
    serviceUrl:
      defaultZone: http://localhost:8761/eureka/
server:
  port: 8765
spring:
  application:
    name: service-feign
