please suggest if is there any other solution to do scaffolding of an app in STS.
In many examples/tutorials about creating web services using Spring MVC framework are using Spring MVC project template. I can't find it in my project tempaltes list. Am i missing some plugin installed?
The best way to create a new Rest service Spring app in STS 3.6.3 and beyond is to select the "Import Spring Getting Started Content". This allows you to get the guides from http://spring.io/guides directly into your workspace. If you look for "Rest Service" in the list of available guides, the wizard will download the initial and the completed version of this guide, showing you how to write a Rest service using the latest Spring versions. The completed version of the project could also be used for just creating a new Spring project and continue to do development from there.

I am new to STS and trying to run my first project in it. But it is not showing me run on server option. I have tried "clean install" but still, it is not working. When I checked targeted runtimes it is not showing any server in it. Kindly help me to resolve this issue.
My recommendations for getting started with the Spring Tools 4 for Eclipse are:
start the IDE with an empty workspace
create a new Spring Boot project using the wizard "Import Spring Getting Started Content" to import some getting started guides, for example the Rest Service example
if you decide to create an empty new Spring project, use the wizard "Spring Starter Project" - it is the direct integration for https://start.spring.io - and go from there
All those options get you started with a Spring Boot project which doesn't need a separate server to run on. Spring Boot comes with am embedded server component, so you can just start the Spring Boot application as a regular Java app. No need to install a local server or use the "Run on Server" option in the IDE.
I am new to spring. I am not able to figure out how to write a spring project for creating DB connection using maven , without using spring -boot or hibernate. it is supposed to be a simple spring maven project.
can you help me with few sample codes.
Install the Spring tools suite plugin for eclipse from the following link.
With spring tools suite, access the spring dashboard
Select the Import Reference App, this will provide several example applications from the Spring guides, choose the example and the example will be installed onto your eclipse workspace. These examples are well documented , with clear instructions on how to run the project. Hopefully this should help you get started with learning Spring framework.
After I finished to add the STS to eclipse,when I just want to build a new spring project ,but there is no [spring project] under the [Spring] menu,but only:
import spring Getting started content
Spring Legacy Project
Spring Roo Project
Spring starter Project
The best way to create a new empty Spring project is to use the "Spring Starter Project" wizard. It creates a new Spring Boot project and allows you to select the boot starters that you want to use to populate the classpath of your project with the necessary libraries. Under the hood it uses http://start.spring.io.
If you would like to get started with Spring and would like to follow one of the guides from http://spring.io/guides, the "Import Getting Started Content" wizard is the best choice. It offers you to download those guides directly into your workspace and work with them.
The "Spring Legacy Project" wizard is an outdated one that allows you to create plain Spring projects that use older Spring versions. This will soon be gone in future versions.
The "Spring Roo Project" wizard uses Spring Roo under the hood, a specific technology to work with Spring projects. This is definitely not the right wizard for you if you just want to create a new Spring project (without dealing with Spring Roo in the future).
Hope this helps!
In many examples/tutorials about creating web services using Spring MVC framework are using Spring MVC project template. I can't find it in my project templates list. Am I missing some plugin installed?
for version: 3.7.1
1) Go to File->New
2) Click on Spring Legacy Project
3) Scroll down and select Spring MVC
The templates should be available via a link on the dashboard as shown in the screenshot below. There is no plugin required.
The available templates should be as below:
In New Spring Project form click on "Configure Templates..."
Then in Preference->Spring->Dashboard check Use Old Dashboad
It will be appear
Try this , it solved my issue.
Go to New Project -> Spring Legacy Project. For first use, only show "Simple Project" folder.
Select Configure templates.. (blue link).
In Template Projects window, delete "spring-data-gemfire" and "spring-integration", and check "Show self-hosted templates ..." (at bottom), and then press Apply -> OK
Just wait while refreshing process, and "Spring MVC Project" should be showed.
Go to File -> New
Select Spring Legacy Project
Look for Spring MVC Project under Templates (Last one in the list, Scroll down if needed)
If you don't see the Spring MVC Project, Select Configure templates.. link
Under Preference -> Spring -> Dashboard
Check Use Old Dashboad and press Apply - Ok.
Wait while refreshing process....
You should be able to see Spring MVC Project now.
I had that same problem when i started using sts 3.6.1 version on my laptop. at meanwhile when i choosen spring legacy project folder no spring mvc project folder shown up.but i cofigured my firewall proxy setting and easily got that folder so soon. so before going for mvc first you check urs firewall and proxies.
steps to configure proxies from native to manual to shown spring mvc project:-
window--->preferences--->network connection-->active provider-->choose manual-->ok then go and check spring legacy folder spring mvc will appear
I'm experimenting with the spring 3 MVC framework. Since i use maven 2 to manage my project, i'm searching for a archetype to create a spring 3 MVC application.
You can use STS (spring tool suite) a new spring MVC template project creates a working application using spring 3.
Or you can using Spring Roo to give a working foundation to your project.
I also couldn't find useful archetypes, so I have created my own. You can find it here. If you find anything you'd like to add, please don't hesitate to mail me or send a patch
Spring MVC quickstart archetype is available on GitHub, courtesy of kolorobot. Good instructions are provided on how to install it to your local Maven repo and use it to create a new Spring MVC project. He’s even helpfully included the Tomcat 7 Maven plugin in the archetypical project so that the newly created Spring MVC can be run from the command line without having to manually deploy it to an application server.
Kolorobot’s example application includes the following:
No-xml Spring MVC 3.2 web application for Servlet 3.0 environment
Apache Tiles with configuration in place,
Bootstrap
JPA 2.0 (Hibernate/HSQLDB)
JUnit/Mockito
Spring Security 3.1
AppFuse and AppFuse Light have been upgraded to use Spring 3 so I guess you could use one of the appfuse archetypes.
But what is exactly a Spring MVC application if not a regular webapp with some dependencies on Spring 3 artefacts?
From the springsource forum:
In Spring Source Tool Suite.
Go to New -> Other -> Spring Source Tool Suite -> Spring Template Project -> Spring MVC Project
enter the details and click Finish.
The Codehaus Maven User Archetypes List has several archetypes including two from app-fuse that use Spring MVC.
This archetype creates a Java web application that uses Spring MVC framework, Angular and Event Sourcing.
mvn archetype:generate \
-DarchetypeGroupId=no.bouvet \
-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-eventsourcing \
-DarchetypeVersion=1.0.2 \
-DgroupId=com.domain.myapp \
-DartifactId=myapp
You can find the source here - maven-archetype-eventsourcing
And read the blogg - Get your Event Sourced web application development started with one line using Maven!
A friend and I created this spring boiler plate for SPA applications. Could perhaps be useful to you https://github.com/PabloK/SpringRESTboilerplate
What I do is create a new Spring Project and one of the selections available in STS Simple Spring Web Maven; it sets up a Spring 3 Maven webapp, just modify the pom to Spring 4 and do a clean install from the Run Config.
As far as i know it does not exist. But why didn't create your own?
