Spring / Spring Boot
What is the purpose of io.spring.dependency-management plugin in Spring Boot?
io.spring.dependency-management gradle plugin provides Maven-like dependency management functionality.
buildscript { repositories { maven { url 'https://repo.spring.io/plugins-snapshot' } } dependencies { classpath 'io.spring.gradle:dependency-management-plugin:1.0.7.BUILD-SNAPSHOT' } } apply plugin: "io.spring.dependency-management"
When you apply the io.spring.dependency-management plugin, Spring Boot's plugin will automatically import the spring-boot-dependencies bom from the version of Spring Boot that you are using. This provides a similar dependency management experience as in Maven. For example, it allows you to omit version numbers when declaring dependencies that are managed in the boom.
To use this, simply declare dependencies in the usual way but omit the version number:
dependencies { implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web' implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa' }
