Spring Boot Hello World Example with Maven

by Leave a Comment

Spring Boot is developed as a subproject of spring framework in order to create a stand-alone application with minimum possible configuration. In this Spring Boot Hello World Example, we will build a simple hello world example using Spring boot with maven.

Spring Boot Hello World Example

Step 1: Preparation for Spring Boot application

As a first step, we need to validate whether Java and Maven are installed. Open command prompt and type “java -version” to check the Java version

E:\Jackson\SpringBootTutorial>java -version
java version "1.7.0_80"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_80-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 24.80-b11, mixed mode, sharing)

“mvn -v” for checking the maven version.

E:\Jackson\SpringBootTutorial>mvn -v
Apache Maven 3.3.9 (bb52d8502b132ec0a5a3f4c09453c07478323dc5; 2015-11-10T22:11:47+05:30)
Maven home: E:\Jackson\apache-maven-3.3.9
Java version: 1.8.0_121, vendor: Oracle Corporation
Java home: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_121\jre
Default locale: en_IN, platform encoding: Cp1252
OS name: "windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "x86", family: "dos"

Step 2: Create POM file and add dependencies

Create a project Folder “SpringBootTutorial” for placing the required files. Place pom.xml in the root folder itself. Spring Boot provides a number of “Starter POMs”, in our application we have used spring-boot-starter-parent in the parent section of the POM. The spring-boot-starter-parent is a special starter that provides useful Maven defaults. spring-boot-starter-parent has no dependencies by itself.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0	http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
 <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

   <groupId>com.javainterviewpoint</groupId>
   <artifactId>SpringBootTutorial</artifactId>
   <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

   <parent>
     <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
     <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
     <version>1.5.1.RELEASE</version>
   </parent>
 </project>

Now when you run mvn dependency:tree you will not see any other jars other than our SpringBootTutorial SNAPSHOT jar.

E:\Jackson\SpringBootTutorial>mvn dependency:tree

Since we are developing a web application, we also need to add spring-boot-starter-web dependency.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
    </dependency>
   </dependencies>
 </project>

Now when you run mvn dependency:tree you can see there will number of additional dependencies added including Tomcat, Jackson, Spring boot etc.

Run “mvn package” command to create a package, now the folder structure will be

|-- pom.xml
|-- target
    |-- maven-archiver
    |   |-- pom.properties
    |-- SpringBootTutorial-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Step 3: Creation of the Java File

We will be having a single java file for our HelloWorld example. Maven by default will be compiling all the java files which are under src/main/java, hence we need to create our HelloWorld.java under src/main/java folder

package com.javainterviewpoint;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

@RestController
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class HelloWorld {

    @RequestMapping("/")
    String hello() {
        return "Hello World! JavaInterviewPoint";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        SpringApplication.run(HelloWorld.class, args);
    }
}

We have added the below annotations in HelloWorld class

  • @RestController – This annotation is a stereotype annotation, this annotation tells spring to render the result back to the caller.
  • @RequestMapping – This annotation will any HTTP request with the path. In our application “/” should be mapped to the hello() method
  • @EnableAutoConfiguration – This annotation tells the Spring Boot to configure the application based on the dependencies added. Since spring-boot-starter-web has added Tomcat and Spring MVC, auto-configuration will setup a web based application.

Our main() method is the triggering point of our java application, it in-turn calls Spring Boot’s SpringApplication class run() method which bootstraps our HelloWorld application and starts the tomcat server. We need to pass our HelloWorld.class as an argument to our run() method.

Again run “mvn package” command after placing the java file

|-- pom.xml
|-- src
|   |-- main
|       |-- java
|           |--HelloWorld.java
|-- target
    |-- classes
    |   |-- HelloWorld.class
    |-- generated-sources
    |   |-- annotations
    |-- maven-archiver
    |   |-- pom.properties
    |-- maven-status
    |   |-- maven-compiler-plugin
    |       |-- compile
    |           |-- default-compile
    |               |-- createdFiles.lst
    |               |-- inputFiles.lst
    |-- SpringBootTutorial-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Step 4: Execution

We will be executing our Spring Boot Hello World example in two different ways.

  1. Using spring-boot: run
  2. Creating an executable jar and running the jar

1. Running using spring-boot:run

In the command prompt from the root directory of the project start the application using the command “mvn spring-boot:run”

2. Creating an executable jar and running the jar

Let’s create an executable jar file, in order to create an executable jar we need to add the spring-boot-maven-plugin to our pom.xml. Now our modified pom file looks like below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0	http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
 <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

   <groupId>com.javainterviewpoint</groupId>
   <artifactId>SpringBootTutorial</artifactId>
   <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

   <parent>
     <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
     <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
     <version>1.5.1.RELEASE</version>
   </parent>
   
   <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
    </dependency>
   </dependencies>
   <build>
     <plugins>
       <plugin>
         <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
         <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
       </plugin>
     </plugins>
   </build>
 </project>

Now run the package command again (mvn package)

|-- pom.xml
|-- src
|   |-- main
|       |-- java
|           |--HelloWorld.java
|-- target
    |-- classes
    |   |-- HelloWorld.class
    |-- generated-sources
    |   |-- annotations
    |-- maven-archiver
    |   |-- pom.properties
    |-- maven-status
    |   |-- maven-compiler-plugin
    |       |-- compile
    |           |-- default-compile
    |               |-- createdFiles.lst
    |               |-- inputFiles.lst
    |-- SpringBootTutorial-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
    |-- SpringBootTutorial-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.original

Now you will see a .original file created along with our .jar file. In order to run the jar which we built, use “java -jar” command

C:\Jackson\SpringBootTutorial>java -jar target/SpringBootTutorial-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
