IDEA Development Spring Boot application

What Spring boot is. Used to simplify the initial set-up and development process for new spring applications. The framework is configured in a specific way so that developers no longer need to define a boilerplate configuration.

The goal of Spring boot is not to provide new solutions for resolved problem domains, but to bring another development experience to the platform, simplifying the use of these technologies. Boot is an ideal choice for developers who are already familiar with the spring ecosystem, but for new spring technology, boot provides a more concise way to use these technologies.

When developing Web applications, especially restful Web services, if you include Spring-boot-starter-web dependencies, it provides you with an automated configuration to start embedded Tomcat containers

Development mode:

1. Development of micro-services: Embedded Tomcat

2. Configuration by default, the applied configuration can be defined using a Java property file named Application.properties and located under the applied classpath root directory. A better approach, however, is to use the YAML configuration, which provides both structured and nested configurations.

3. Pack Boot Application: Execute package under Maven, just execute MVN package command

4. Operation: Java-jar Path/to/myproject.jar

The default inline tomcat for Spring boot does not support JSP, but usually we have JSP in our project, so we need to change it a little bit.

Demo project directory structure is as follows

Development environment Set-up (IDEA14)

1. After checking out the project settings

2. Set the war package from the current project

3. Install Tomcat

4. Configure the project running environment

5. Configure Tomcat related parameters

6. Add Items
