To be compatible with Gradle's plugin portal, plugins must have an
ID that uses a reverse domain name. This means that spring-boot is
not compatible.
This commit introduces a new ID, org.springframework.boot, and
deprecates the old ID.
Closes gh-6997
Breaking API changes in Gradle 3.0 make it impossible to support
it reliably alongside Gradle 1 and 2 without mainintaining multiple
versions of our Gradle plugin. This commit updates the documentation
to note that Gradle 3 is not supported.
Closes gh-6880
In 1.3, our Gradle plugin no longer automatically applies the
application plugin. This affects the default options that are
available for explicitly configuring a project's main class. This
commit updates the documentation accordingly.
Closes gh-3768
Flip the default value of `addResources` for both the Maven and Gradle
plugins. This effectively turns off static resources reloading and, more
importantly, the pruning of duplicate resources from the target
directory.
As devetools is our mainstram solution for such feature, the documantion
has been updated to reflect that.
Closes gh-4227
Add an `excludeDevtools` property to both the Maven and Gradle plugin
that removes `org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-devtools` (if
necessary) when repackaging the application.
Closes gh-3171
This reverts commit b1c0a7cda486e4f745b4233715efb8c0dc2814df.
The plugin publishing process has moved to a new plugin-based approach
that brings with it some significant limitations:
- There's no staging to allow the promotion of good release builds
- There's no easy way to upload an existing artifact
- There's no control over the published pom.
The risk brought by these limitations, particularly the first, are
too great so we will no be publishing the Boot plugin to the Portal
until they're resolved.
Changing the plugin's ID was a breaking change that would require
users to do some work when they upgrade to Boot 1.3. The ID of the
plugin was changed purely so that it met the Portal's requirements.
Given that the plugin will not be published to the Portal for the
foreseaable future there's no need for us to inflict a breaking change
on people when there will be no benefit.
See gh-1567
Gradle’s plugin portal requires each plugin’s ID to be in a namespace.
Our existing ID, spring-boot, does not meet this requirement. This
commit changes the plugin’s ID to org.springframework.boot.spring-boot.
Note that, as is recommended [1], the plugin’s ID does not include
“gradle”.

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
The Maven plugin allows spring-boot:run to be configured so that
resources are loaded from their output location rather than from
src/main/resources. This commit adds an equivalent configuration
option to the Gradle plugin. To disable source resources from being
added to the classpath in place of those in the output location
the configure the bootRun tasks like this:
bootRun {
addResources = false
}
Closes gh-2431
If a Gradle build is using the Spring Boot Gradle plugin's support for
declaring dependencies without versions then they will be unable to
publish Maven artifacts from the build as the Gradle-generated pom
will fail to validate. This is because Gradle doesn't apply the
Boot-provided dependency versions to the dependencies in the generated
pom.
This can be addressed by configuring Gradle to generate a pom that
either imports spring-boot-dependencies into its dependency management
or that uses spring-boot-starter-parent as its parent. This commit
updates the documentation to document the need for this configuration
and to provide examples of how to do so.
Closes gh-1806
Update the executable JAR code to automatically unpack any entries
which include an entry comment starting `UNPACK:` to the temp folder.
The existing Maven and Gradle plugins have been updated with new
configuration options and the `spring-boot-tools` project has been
updated to write the appropriate entry comment based on a flag passed
in via the `Library` class.
This support has been added to allow libraries such a JRuby (which
assumes that `jruby-complete.jar` is always accessible as file) to work
with Spring Boot executable jars.
Fixes gh-1070
Add a Library class update the LibraryCallback interface and
implementations to use it. This change is in preparation for
an addition `unpack` flag that will be required to allow the
automatic unpacking of certain nested jars.
See gh-1070
Simplify the exclusion logic used in Gradle by implementing implicit
exclusions rather than trying to detect transitive excludes.
This commit reverts much of the code originally included to fix gh-1047
which adds far too much complexity to the build and still doesn't solve
the underlying issue.
Fixes gh-1103
Refactor and rework several areas of the Gradle plugin:
- Refactor package structure into functional areas and configure each
area separately via a new PluginFeatures interface.
- Convert BootRunTask to extend RunTask rather than attempting to
find existing RunTasks.
- Simplify agent integration by no longer needing specific BootRunTask
code.
- Update the repackage task to consider the `mainClassName` property
in addition to `springBoot.mainClass`.
- Automatically set `mainClassName` when calling `run` or `runBoot`
from `springBoot.mainClass` if there is one.
- Ensure that explicitly defined `main` options on JavaExec tasks always
take precedence.
Fixes gh-547, gh-820, gh-886, gh-912
