Update all configuration examples in the docs to YAML and make use of
the new `configblocks` spring-asciidoctor-extensions feature to
automatically create both "Properties" and "Yaml" versions.
Closes gh-23515
Previously, the developmentOnly configuration, typically used for
Devtools, had to be declared manually. The BootJar and BootWar tasks
then had a property, excludeDevtools, that could be used to control
whether or not Devtools would be excluded from the executable archive.
This commit updates the reaction to the Java plugin being applied to
automatically create the developmentOnly configuration. The classpaths
of bootJar and bootWar are then configured not to include the contents
of the developmentOnly configuration. As a result of this, the
excludeDevtools property is no longer needed and has been deprecated.
Its default has also been changed from true to false to make it easy
to opt in to Devtools, when configured as a development-only
dependency, being included in executable jars and wars by adding
developmentOnly to the classpath of the archive task.
Closes gh-16599
This commit moves Maven plugin content from several sections in the
main Spring Boot reference documentation to the plugin-specific
documentation.
Fixes gh-19165
With the introduction of Gradle we lost the list of version properties
that were previously in the spring-boot-dependencies POM and were also
linked inside the documentation. This commit introduces an appendix
section in the docs and links the appropriate places to the new section
to restore discoverability.
