How to add email to Spring Boot gradle build - spring-boot

Spring boot has a number of starter dependencies. The default set does not include support for mail (org.springframework.mail is missing in Boot). How do I configure my build.gradle to include the spring framework mail support?

For spring boot you want to use this:
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-mail")
See more about spring starters here

Try spring-context-support, ie
compile 'org.springframework:spring-context-support'
You might find this a helpful tool for that kind of query: http://www.findjar.com.

How to configure Spring Cloud Sleuth in Spring Boot microservices

Can someone please help me? I want to integrate Spring Sleuth with my Spring Boot microservices. I added spring-cloud-starter-sleuth dependency. Also tried by added SLF4J along with it. But it is print normal logs. Not printing in Sleuth style like app name, span id ,traceid etc. I am not sure if it is recognizing dependency? Do I need to add any other dependency? Any properties file?
Could you please guide with exact dependency? and exact steps to configure?
In terms of logging, we support slf4j out of the box. You have to implement your own SpanLogger interface to add the logging support for log4j

Add compiler options when spring-boot-maven-plugin is used

I want to use the jackson module parameter-names with Java 8 in my spring boot application. I need to provide the option "-parameters" to the compiler. Could you please let me know how to do this in pom.xml for the spring boot plug-in spring-boot-maven-plugin.
I found only following answer (How to compile Spring Boot applications with Java 8 --parameter flag), but the answer refers to different plug-in.
Thanks.
Spring Boot relies on maven-compiler-plugin. Check Spring Boot parent pom. Or check my answer here

Spring Boot 1.4.0.RELEASE and Spring 4.3.2.RELEASE

I'm trying to update my project to Spring Boot 1.4.0.RELEASE and Spring 4.3.2.RELEASE but it fails with a following errors:
The project was not built since its build path is incomplete:
Cannot find the class file for org.springframework.core.io.support.PropertySourceFactory.
Cannot find the class file for org.springframework.core.NestedRuntimeException.
Does Spring Boot 1.4.0.RELEASE support Spring 4.3.2.RELEASE and if so what am I doing wrong and how to fix it ?
See my answer here for someone trying to do the same. You basically have to use dependency management to get your dependencies straight.

Spring Boot support maven multi-module

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.
