This commit adds a new annotation, @ServletComponentScan, that can be
used to enable scanning for @WebFilter, @WebListener, and @WebServlet
annotated classes. Registration beans will be automatically created for
any classes that are found, with the configuration derived from the
annotation.
Previously, native cache libraries were favored over a standard JSR-107
implementation. If a user has a working setup using JCache with one
provider and switch to another provider, his setup may be broken if we
happen to provide a native support for the new provider.
We now consistently favor JSR-107 if it is present. Native support can
still be enabled via the `spring.cache.type` property.
Closes gh-3822
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 {}
Closes gh-3635
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.

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 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
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
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
Update Tomcat, Jetty and Undertow to serialize session data when the
application is stopped and load it again when the application restarts.
Persistent session are opt-in; either by setting `persistentSession`
on the ConfigurableEmbeddedServletContainer or by using the property
`server.session.persistent=true`.
Fixes gh-2490
Embedded MongoDB is now auto-configured when it is on the classpath.
The Mongo instance will listen on the port specified by the
spring.data.mongodb.port property. If this property has a value of
zero and randomly allocated port will be used. In such an event, the
MongoClient created by MongoAutoConfiguration will be automatically
configured to use the port that was allocated.
By default, MongoDB 2.6.10 will be used. This can be configured using
the spring.embedded-mongodb.version property. Mongo's sync delay
feature is enabled by default. This can be configured using the
spring.embedded-mongobd.features property.
Closes gh-2002
Add ApplicationArguments interface which allows SpringApplication.run
arguments to be injected into any bean. The interface provides access
to both the raw String[] arguments and also provides some convenience
methods to access the parsed 'option' and 'non-option' arguments.
A new ApplicationRunner interface has also been added which is
similar to the existing CommandLineRunner.
Fixes gh-1990
Unfortunately, we have no other choice to flip the ignoreUnknownFields
attribute of `SecurityProperties` has many different target are now set
for that namespace outside the class. See gh-3445 for a potential way
to improve that.
Closes gh-3327
Use AbstractTemplateViewResolverProperties as the base class for
GroovyTemplateProperties since the Spring GroovyMarkupViewResolver is
an AbstractTemplateViewResolver.
The auto-configuration for Groovy is now more aligned with the existing
Freemarker and Velocity auto-configuration, with a `resourceLoaderPath`
property being used instead of `prefix`.
Fixes gh-3365
Closes gh-3374
There is a new spring.factories entry for
org.springframework.boot.actuate.autoconfigure.EndpointWebMvcConfiguration
which loads extra beans into the MVC config for the Actuator.
If the management context is a child context all the beans go in the
child (except the Spring Security filter still). A big bonus is that
you can add WebConfigurerAdapters to configure static resources etc.
A new component called ManagementContextResolver can be used to
locate the ApplicationContext for the MVC endpoints.
Fixes gh-3345
This commit improves support of the Resource Handling features
introduced in Spring Framework 4.1. Those features add new ways to
resolve and transform static resources in applications.
See [this blog
post](https://spring.io/blog/2014/07/24/spring-framework-4-1-handling-static-web-resources)
for more details.
The `ResourceUrlEncodinFilter` is added for compatible template engines:
Velocity and Thymeleaf. It assists them with rewriting the URLs of
static resources when rendering templates.
New keys are added in the `ResourceProperties` in order to configure
the Resource Handling chain. `ResourceResolvers` and
`ResourceTransformers` are registered accordingly in
`WebMvcAutoConfiguration`.
Here is an example of enabling a `ContentVersionStrategy` on all
static resources, meaning their names will be changed for cache
busting purposes by adding a content hash at the end of the file name.
Like "/js/jquery.js -> /js/jquery-872ca6a9fdda9e2c1516a84cff5c3bc6.js".
```
spring.resources.chain.enabled:true
spring.resources.chain.strategy.content.enabled:true
spring.resources.chain.strategy.content.paths:/**
