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

For years, I've used Spring Initializr (at https://start.spring.io/) to create the initial SpringBoot application and then modify it to create the app. This works fine.
Is there a maven archetype I can use to create a SpringBoot app? Or is the Spring Initializr the only way to do this.
Searching I found this:
What archetype to choose for a simple java project
Which shows the command:
mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=org.apache.maven.archetypes:
Which gives me a list of 14 items to choose from. None of them mention SpringBoot.
The closest match is org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-webapp, so I tried it and it created a WebApp (*.war) which is not what I'm looking for.
The aim of the Maven archetype is for generating a project skeleton. The Spring Initialiser also does the same but I think you should find it more user friendly to use when compared to executing a maven archetype command.
If you insist to use maven archetype , you can simply search Github to see if there are people share their archetypes (search result at here)
If your aim is just to use command to generate a spring-boot project skeleton , Spring Initializr actually provide an HTTP API to do it.
Also you can checkout JHipster, which is another tool to generate a spring-boot project skeleton.
You could also use Spring Boot CLI to scaffold new Spring Boot projects:
spring init --dependencies=web,data-jpa my-new-project
It works just as Spring Initializr, but on the command line.
See section 2.4 "Initialize a New Project" on Spring Boot CLI documentation here: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/cli.html#cli.using-the-cli.initialize-new-project
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.

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 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.
