Spring Boot Quick Revision Notes

What is Spring Boot?

- Spring Boot is a framework to build Java-based web applications quickly.

- It simplifies Spring framework by providing auto-configuration and embedded servers.

Key Features:

- Auto Configuration

- Embedded Servers (like Tomcat)

- No need for XML configuration

- Spring Boot Starter Dependencies

- Spring Boot Actuator for monitoring

- Spring Boot DevTools for fast development

Important Annotations:

- @SpringBootApplication: Main class annotation (includes @Configuration,

@EnableAutoConfiguration, @ComponentScan)

- @RestController: Marks class as a REST API controller

- @RequestMapping / @GetMapping / @PostMapping: Maps HTTP requests

- @Autowired: Injects beans automatically

- @Service, @Repository, @Component: Marks classes for Spring to manage

Spring Boot Project Structure:

- Controller: Handles HTTP requests

- Service: Business logic

- spring-boot-starter-data-jpa: For database with Hibernate

- spring-boot-starter-security: For authentication

- spring-boot-starter-test: For testing

spring.datasource.username=...

spring.datasource.password=...

spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update

- Combines @Configuration, @EnableAutoConfiguration, and @ComponentScan.

4. What is the use of application.properties?

- To configure server, database, and other settings.


5. What is dependency injection?

- Automatically providing required objects to a class using @Autowired.

6. How to connect Spring Boot with database?

- Use JPA and set DB configs in application.properties

7. What is embedded server?

- A built-in server (Tomcat) that runs the app directly (no need to deploy WAR).
