Previously, manual meta-data were added to the existing set of entries
which could lead to duplicates if a manual entry is meant to complement
a property that is detected via the processor.
We now match the name and type of the item against the auto-detected
entries. If no match is found, we add the extra entry as we did before.
If a match is found we override the description, default value and
deprecation information.
Closes gh-3562
Given that Spring Boot uses java config accross the board, a new `value`
attribute is now aliased to the existing `classes` attribute such that
one could write the following:
@SpringApplicationConfiguration(MyConfig.class)
public class MyTest {}

Changing the velocity view resolver to a VelocityLayoutViewResolver seems
a common use case so it has now a dedicated section in the relevant how
to.
Closes gh-3732
The default value of `spring.devtools.restart.exclude` is quite long and
any override requires to copy/paste it to add additional exclusions. To
avoid that, a new `spring.devtools.restart.additional-exclude` property
has been added.
Both properties are now used to compute the full list of exclusions that
is used by PatternClassPathRestartStrategy.
Closes gh-3774
The `spring.datasource.name` property was hidden behind the 'name'
attribute of the Tomcat connection pool (since we are mapping all
datasource implementations on the `spring.datasource` namespace.
This commit replace the injected value by hand with the use of the
regular `DataSourceProperties`. That way, we generate proper meta-data
for it as well.
Closes gh-3755
A new `spring.datasource.type` property can now be used to configure the
connection pool implementation to use (rather than only relying on Boot's
preferences).
Closes gh-3705
Improve the documentation to explain the necessary steps to create a
custom Spring Boot starter. In particular, provide more details regarding
naming conventions.
Closes gh-2537

Previously, to use a custom ConfigurableWebBindingInitializer, it was
necessary to extend WebMvcConfigurationSupport and override
getConfigurableWebBindingInitializer. This had the unwanted
side-effect of switching off the auto-configuration of Spring MVC.
This commit updates the auto-configuration to look for a
ConfigurableWebBindingInitializer bean and register it with Spring
MVC.
Closes gh-2526
This commit provides a single endpoint, /actuator, that serves HTML
(the HAL browser) or JSON depending on the request’s accept header
that enables discovery of all of the actuator’s other endpoints.
When the management context path is configured, the /actuator endpoint
moves to the configured path, e.g. if the management context path is
set to /management, the actuator endpoint will be available from
/management.
Closes gh-3696
This commit adds a new property, logging.exception-conversion-word,
that can be used to configure the conversion word that is used when
logging exceptions. The default value, %rEx, will log exceptions
with the root cause first and include class packaging information in
the stack trace. The new property is supported when using either
Logback or Log4J2.
Closes gh-3684
Harmonize the configuration properties for Undertow to match the changes
made for gh-2491.
Move `spring.undertow.accessLog*` to `spring.undertow.accesslog.*`
Add `directory`, `prefix` and `suffix` properties to further customize
how access logs are configured on Tomcat. Relocate all properties to the
`server.tomcat.accesslog` namespace.
`server.tomcat.accessLogPattern` and `server.tomcat.accessLogEnabled` are
deprecated and replaced by `server.tomcat.accesslog.pattern` and
`server.tomcat.accesslog.enabled` respectively.
Closes gh-2491
Previously, only folders on the classpath would be watched and used
to trigger a restart/reload of the application. This commit adds a
new property spring.devtools.restart.additional-paths that can be
used to configure additional paths that should be watched for
changes. When a change occurs in one of those paths a restart or
reload will be triggered, depending on the full restart exclude
patterns configured via the existing spring.devtools.restart.exclude
property.
Closes gh-3469
Three conditions must be met for the console to be enabled:
- H2 is on the classpath
- The application is a web application
- spring.h2.console.enabled is set to true
If spring-boot-devtools is on the classpath, spring.h2.console.enabled
will be set to true automatically. Without the dev tools, the enabled
property will have to be set to true in application.properties.
By default, the console is available at /h2-console. This can be
configured via the spring.h2.console.path property. The value of this
property must begin with a '/'.
When Spring Security is on the classpath the console will be secured
based on the user's security.* configuration. When the console is
secured, CSRF protection is disabled and frame options is set to
SAMEORIGIN for its path. Both settings are required in order for the
console to function.
Closes gh-766
The `bootRun` gradle task or `spring-boot:run` maven goal can be used to
start a Spring Boot app with DevTools as long as forking is enabled. Add
an explicit note in the documentation to mention that.
Closes gh-3315
Add an auto-configuration that avoid a Spring Boot user to add
`@EnableConfigurationProperties` to its configuration to benefit from
that feature.
As our own auto-configurations are tested independently, such annotation
is still present to avoid a useless reference to this new
auto-configuration.
Closes gh-2457
Add `spring.autoconfigure.exclude` to control the list of
auto-configuration classes to exclude via configuration. Merge the
exclusions defined on the `@EnableAutoConfiguration` or
`@SpringBooApplication` if any.
Closes gh-2435
Add a "management.health.defaults.enabled" property that controls whether
the default health indicators are enabled. This allow to disable them all
by default and still enable individual ones using their respective
specific property.
Closes gh-2298
Currently, the default TemplateResolver had no specific order. Thymeleaf
handles that with a "always first" strategy (that can be confusing if
several TemplateResolver have a "null" order.
While it is a fine default (and changing it could lead to weird side
effects), it has to be changed as soon as another TemplateResolver bean
is defined in the project.
The `spring.thymeleaf.template-resolver-order` property has been added to
control the order of the default TemplateResolver.
