============
Spring Boot
============
-> Spring Boot is one approach to develop Spring Based applications with less
configurations.
-> Using Spring Boot we can develop below types of applications
1) Standalone app
2) Web
3) Distributed (webservices)
-> We have below advantages with Spring Boot
1) Starter Pom (simplifies maven/gradle build configuration)
-> web-starter
-> datajpa-starter
-> security-starter
-> mail-starter
2) Auto Configuration (boot will identify required configs for our app)
-> Creating db connection pool
-> deploy web app in embedded server
-> Start IOC container
-> Component Scanning
3) Actuators (To monitor and manage our application)
-> how many beans loaded ?
-> How many url-patterns mapped
-> What configuration properties loaded ?
-> What is health of app?
-> Heap Dump
-> Thread Dump
4) Embedded Servers : It provides server to run our boot application
-> Apache Tomcat (default)
-> Jetty
-> netty
=================================
Creating Spring Boot Application
==================================
1) Initializr website (start.spring.io)
2) IDE
Note: IDE will internally connect with start.spring.io website to create SpringBoot
application (Spring Starter Project)
Spring Boot =
Spring - xml configurations + Auto Config + Embedded Servers + Actuators
=====================================
What is Start Class in Spring Boot ?
=====================================
-> Start class is entry point for boot application execution.
-> Start class is also called as main class in Spring Boot.
Note: When we create boot app, start class will create by default
@SpringBootApplication
public class Application{
public static void main(String... args){
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
=> The @SpringBootApplication annotation is equal to below 3 annotations
1) @SpringBootConfiguration ----> @Configuration
2) @EnableAutoConfiguration
3) @ComponentScan
======================================
How IOC starting in Spring Boot ?
======================================
=> SpringApplication.run ( ) method contains logic to start IOC container
boot-starter :: AnnotationConfigApplicationContext
web-starter :: AnnotationConfigServletWebServerApplicationContext
starter-webflux :: AnnotationConfigReactiveWebServerApplicationContext
================================
What is Banner in Spring Boot ?
================================
-> Spring Logo which is printing on console is called as banner
-> We have below 3 modes for banner
1) console (default) --->> prints on console
2) log ---->> prints on log file
3) off --->> don't print banner
-> We can set banner mode in application.properties file
spring.main.banner-mode=off
-> We can customize banner text in spring boot by creating banner.txt file under
src/main/resources folder.
