How to override REST Service in springboot

Question

I have a project named customer written in spring boot, and another maven project named customer-customization adds the customer project as a dependency and uses it. My goal: To change the rest service. As the name of the project suggests, I want to allow the project to be used by making changes without touching my source code.

Customer project

Spring boot version : 3.2.2

Java version: 21

pom.xml

<dependency>
                <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot-dependencies</artifactId>
                <type>pom</type>
                <scope>import</scope>
            </dependency>
<dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
        </dependency>

CityService.java

@RequestMapping("city")
public interface CityService {

    @PostMapping(value = "/createCity", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE, consumes = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
    ResponseEntity<CityDto> createCity(@RequestBody CityDto param);

}

CityServiceImpl.java

@RestController
public class CityServiceImpl implements CityService {

    @Override
    public ResponseEntity<CityDto> createCity(CityDto param) {
        ...
    }

}

customer-customization project

pom.xml

                    <mainClass>com.rz.customer.app.CustomerCustomizationApplication</mainClass>
                </configuration>
                <executions>

                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

CustomCityService.java

@RequestMapping("city")
public interface CustomCityService {

    @PostMapping(value = "/createCity", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE, consumes = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
    ResponseEntity<CustomCityDto> createCity(@RequestBody CustomCityDto param);
}

CustomCityServiceImpl.java

@RestController
public class CustomCityServiceImpl implements CustomCityService {

    @Override
    public ResponseEntity<CityDto> createCity(CustomCityDto param) {
        ...
    }

}

While running the customer-customization project I'm getting this error:

"Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Ambiguous mapping. Cannot map 'customCityServiceImpl' method 
com.rz.customer.controller.impl.CustomCityServiceImpl#createCity(CityInputDto)
to {POST [/city/createCity], consumes [application/json], produces [application/json]}: There is already 'customCityServiceImpl' bean method
com.rz.customer.controller.impl.CustomCityServiceImpl#createCity(CustomCityDto)"

I know this error is normal because there cannot be more than one service belonging to the same url.

My goal is somehow I want the customer-customization project to overwhelm the service in the customer project. I tried extending the RequestMappingHandlerMapping class but I couldn't. Is it possible to do this, perhaps by adding notation like @Primary to the CustomCityService.java class and prioritizing it, or some other way? Since my goal is to have the customer project done without touching the source code, I want to make this change in the customer-customization project.

How can I do?

I solved my problem with registerHandlerMethod method of the RequestMappingHandlerMapping class.

@Configuration
public class CustomRequestMappingHandlerMapping implements WebMvcRegistrations {

    @Override
    public RequestMappingHandlerMapping getRequestMappingHandlerMapping() {
        return new RequestMappingHandlerMapping() {

            @Override
            protected void registerHandlerMethod(Object handler, Method method, RequestMappingInfo mapping) {
                Set<RequestMethod> httpMethods = mapping.getMethodsCondition().getMethods();
                if (handler.toString().equals("cityServiceImpl") && httpMethods.contains(RequestMethod.POST)
                        && mapping.getPatternValues().contains("/city/createCity")) {
                    return;
                }
                super.registerHandlerMethod(handler, method, mapping);
            }
        };
    }
}
