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.
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
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
A RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration subclass provided by a user is
problematic in a Spring Boot application as it causes
RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration's bean declarations to be processed
before any auto-configuration runs.
One problem that this causes is that it switches off Boot's Jackson
auto-configuration due to RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration having
already declared multiple ObjectMapper beans. Unlike Boot's
auto-configured ObjectMapper, none of these ObjectMappers are marked
as @Primary. This then leads to wiring failures due to multiple
candidates being available.
To address this problem a new RepositoryRestConfigurer abstract has been
introduced in Spring Data Gosling. Its use is now strongly preferred
over subclassing RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration. Note that our own
RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration subclass remains. It is imported as part
of auto-configuration (avoiding the ordering problems described above),
and provides configuration properties binding for
RepositoryRestConfiguration. However, the Jackson ObjectMapper
configuration has been moved out into a new RepositoryRestConfigurer
implementation.
While SpringBootRepositoryRestMvcConfiguration remains, this commit
makes it package private to discourage users from subclassing it. While
this may break existing applications, it, coupled with the documentation
updates, will hopefully guide them toward using
RepositoryRestConfigurer.
Closes gh-3439
Previously, all attempts to log a configuration file were logged at DEBUG
level which lead to a lot of noise as Spring Boot looks in many places by
default.
We now only log the files that are effectively found at DEBUG level and
all failed attempts at TRACE level.
Closes gh-3129
Migrate `spring.view.prefix` and `spring.view.suffix` to
`spring.mvc.view.prefix` and `spring.mvc.view.suffix` respectively. The
former properties are still handled in a backward compatible way and are
defined as deprecated in the meta-data.
Closes gh-3250
Previously, the actual HTTP port on which a web application is running on
was only exposed in tests. This commit makes sure to provide that feature
regardless of the environment so that applications can know on which port
they are actually running on.
If there are several containers, each is exposed via the namespace of
their respective application context.
Closes gh-3259
This commit replaces Spring Boot's basic dependency management support
with separate dependency management plugin. This has a number of
benefits including:
1. A Maven bom can be used rather than a custom properties file
2. Dependency management is applied transitively rather than only to
direct dependencies
3. Exclusions are applied as they would be in Maven
4. Gradle-generated poms are automatically configured with the
appropriate dependency management
Closes gh-2133
Rename RepositoryRestMvcBootConfiguration to
SpringBootRepositoryRestMvcConfiguration so that it follows the same
naming pattern as other custom Spring Boot configurations.
See gh-2392
If an application defines a custom RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration, all
Spring Boot defaults are lots. While this sounds sensible, it can be
confusing as Spring Boot exposes properties (`spring.data.rest.*`) that
are no longer honored.
RepositoryRestMvcBootConfiguration is now public and can be used as an
extension point for those who need to customize the Spring Data REST
configuration and keep boot's specific defaults.
Fixes gh-2392
This commit adds support for configuring Log4j 2 with YAML. It also
improves the existing support for configuring Log4j 2 with JSON.
Previously, Log4J2LoggingSystem returned a hard-coded list of standard
config locations that includes both JSON and XML file suffixes. Log4j
2’s support for JSON configuration files requires Jackson’s ObjectMapper
to be on the classpath so, in its absence, the standard config locations
were incorrect.
This commit updates Log4J2LoggingSystem to return an array of standard
config locations based on what’s on the classpath. It also updates the
documentation to describe the additional dependencies that are required
to enable YAML or JSON-based configuration.
Closes gh-2239
Previously, the documentation only provided examples of the required
configuration for Maven users. This commit adds equivalent configuration
snippets for those using Gradle. It also removes the recommendation to
override the version of the Servlet API as this is unnecessary. The pom
files for the Jetty 8 and Tomcat 7 samples have also been updated
accordingly.
Closes gh-2346
Add `@WebIntegrationTest` which is similar to `@IntegrationTest` and
`@WebAppConfiguration`. The annotation using Spring's `@BootstrapWith`
annotation rather than `@TestExecutionListeners` which allows it to
work when `@TestExecutionListeners` (even ServletTestExecutionListener)
are declared on the test class.
This annotation is particularly useful for TestNG users that extend
Spring's `AbstractTestNGSpringContextTests` class.

In a properties file, a backslash is used as an escape character for
the line terminator sequence to allow values to be split across
multiple lines. When a backslash is used elsewhere they're stripped
out of the property's value.
This commit updates .properties-based examples for configuring
server.tomcat.internal-proxies to escape the backslahes so that they
are retained in the property's value at runtime.

Fixes a couple of typos in the documentation:
* `x-forwarded-protocol` is not the standard name for this header
* `require_https` is not an existing property, but rather `require_ssl`
Traditionally, a @ServerEndpoint-annotated bean is found by a servlet
container initialiser, however Boot does not run servlet container
initialisers when an embedded container is being used. To be able to use
@ServerEndpoint in a Boot app that uses embedded Tomcat a
ServerEndpointExporter bean must be declared.
This commit updates the documentation to describe this requirement and
also updates the WebSockets sample to illustrate the use of
ServerEndpointExporter. The version of Spring Framework has been updated
to 4.0.8.BUILD-SNAPSHOT. This picks up the fix for SPR-12340.
Closes gh-1722
This commit reworks a7e1ec8 to fix the build failure and update the

Points to note for authors:
* Nesting "*" in `literals` does not behave like Markdown - you have to
escape the asterisk (e.g. `foo/\*`)
* Quote ligatures (why we had to use those I don't really know) are
different in asciidoctor 1.5 ('`foo`' instead of ``foo'')
