I have previous experience in Spring MVC but I am new to Spring Boot.
I am Using IntelliJ for the first time.
What I noticed is that when you create a Spring boot project with security dependencies added during the time of creation, Then the IDE creates the project already configured With Basic Authentication whereas if I add dependencies to pom.xml after creation, then the application won't get configured with basic authentication automatically.
Can anyone explain this behavior of IntelliJ and can anyone help me with steps for configuring the pre-created project with Basic Authentication?
IntelliJ is using
https://start.spring.io/
to initialise your project. After the project is initialised, the IDE doesn't modify your code in any way. That is the normal behaviour and it is not Spring Boot related.
NOTE: The dependency that you add in your pom.xml is just pulling down that dependency, but if you need to use it you do the code yourself. (More information about Maven: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Maven)

I have an existing project. I need to make it a Spring boot based project and I am using IntelliJ CE.
What would be correct procedure for doing it?
Edit:
Project has no initial structure. It is a totally empty project. So no existing modules etc.
Spring Boot is an Ultimate feature, so first you would need to try/buy the IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate.
From there, you can add Spring support to existing project modules or use the Spring Initializr wizard to select the necessary configuration when creating a new project or module.
In your maven pom.xml or build.gradle file, I would add the spring boot starter dependency:
spring-boot-starter (the group id is org.springframework.boot)
If the application is a web application, I would also add the web starter spring-boot-starter-web also with the same group id (org.springframework.boot)
For convenient features, applying the spring boot plugin would help in creating a runnable jar with all required dependencies bundled called a fat jar.
A great tool I use is the spring boot project generator. It allows you to configure the modules you want and create a project template.
Spring Boot requires IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate. If you want to use IntelliJ CE, please create a project using Spring Initilizer then import the same to your IntelliJ CE (File -> Open -> Choose the project root folder). After you import the project, wait for some time so that IntelliJ can download the dependency and build your project. You can check from (Build -> Build your project). Then find the main class of spring boot and run it using the green play button
Friends,
I am trying to build a Spring boot project. but the challenge is maven isn't working in office environment(basically proxy isn't allowing).
Is there any way to create a spring boot project without maven?
if I can get any boiler code link would be very helpful.
Yes, it is possible. Just add all the necessary jar in project class path manually. Example Spring boot project jar added by gradle.

Part2
I am using Spring Boot version 1.2.4.RELEASE to generate a simple web project. The full Url for creating this project is:
http://start.spring.io/starter.zip?name=demo3&groupId=org.test&artifactId=demo3&version=0.0.1-SNAPSHOT&description=Demo+project+for+Spring+Boot&packageName=demo3&type=maven-project&packaging=jar&javaVersion=1.7&language=java&bootVersion=1.2.4.RELEASE&dependencies=web
The download starter project opened in the STS 3.6.4.RELEASE with tons of errors: Missing artifact, ArtifactDescriptorException from the pom.xml file.
However, if I use version 1.1.12.RELEASE of the Spring Boot, I have no problem to create the startup project.
Is this a bug in the 1.2.4.RELEASE of the Spring Boot? I doubt it.
The project is OK.
Please to check your local env, specially connexion, maven configuration (setting.xml), ...etc
Good luck
i created a maven project, and added all dependencies i need.
i have some repositories using the spring-data-jpa, and i added some integration tests.
now i need to add ontop of it spring-data-rest, if i understand it is based on springmvc.
but all examples i found, i need to add spring boot to start the app.
i noticed also all new spring projects use spring boot.
this means that i have to learn and use it for my projects?
how can i use spring-data-jpa+spring-data-jpa with an existing servlet3 project
The reason all examples are written using Boot is that Boot is indeed the way you should start a new Spring project these days. It free's from a lot of the tedious work of setting up the infrastructure, finding dependencies in the right version etc.
To use Spring Data REST without Boot, simply add the necessary dependencies to your project. The easiest way to do this is to use the Spring Data Release Train BOM (which will help you pulling in the correct matching versions) along side the version-less dependency declarations for Spring Data REST WebMVC and - in your case - Spring Data JPA.
Then go ahead and either register RepositoryRestMvcConvfiguration as Spring bean (either through XML configuration or JavaConfig).
All of this is also documented in the reference documentation.
I am trying to convert my existing multi-module maven Spring project to Spring Boot project. The reason is make it self contain and follow Martain Fowler's microservices concept.
However, the problem I have encounter is when try to clean build, seems the spring boot is trying to find the Main method from every module, which of course will failed.
Is this feature currently supported by Spring Boot 1.1.6.RELEASE or I did something wrong?
Thanks
It sounds like you've added Spring Boot's Maven plugin to every module in your build – it's what's looking for a main method. You should only add the Spring Boot plugin to a module if its a service that you want to run. If the module's just code that's shared between your services, the Spring Boot plugin isn't needed in that module.
