Create Spring Boot Java project prompt

Please make sure you have the following software installed on your system:

  • Java 21

  • Docker

  • Docker Compose

If you need to custom the project name, please change the artifactId and the packageName in download-spring-boot-project-template

If you need to update the Spring Boot version, please change the bootVersion in download-spring-boot-project-template

Check Java version

  • Run following command in terminal and check the version of Java
Copy & paste — that's it
java -version

Download Spring Boot project template

  • Run following command in terminal to download a Spring Boot project template
Copy & paste — that's it
curl https://start.spring.io/starter.zip \
 -d artifactId=${input:projectName:demo-java} \
 -d bootVersion=3.4.5 \
 -d dependencies=lombok,configuration-processor,web,data-jpa,postgresql,data-redis,data-mongodb,validation,cache,testcontainers \
 -d javaVersion=21 \
 -d packageName=com.example \
 -d packaging=jar \
 -d type=maven-project \
 -o starter.zip

Unzip the downloaded file

  • Run following command in terminal to unzip the downloaded file
Copy & paste — that's it
unzip starter.zip -d ./${input:projectName:demo-java}

Remove the downloaded zip file

  • Run following command in terminal to delete the downloaded zip file
Copy & paste — that's it
rm -f starter.zip

Change directory to the project root

  • Run following command in terminal to change directory to the project root
Copy & paste — that's it
cd ${input:projectName:demo-java}

Add additional dependencies

  • Insert springdoc-openapi-starter-webmvc-ui and archunit-junit5 dependency into pom.xml file
Copy & paste — that's it

Add docker-compose.yaml with Redis, PostgreSQL and MongoDB services

Create docker-compose.yaml at project root and add following services: redis:6, postgresql:17 and mongo:8.

  • redis service should have

  • password rootroot

  • mapping port 6379 to 6379

  • mounting volume ./redis_data to /data

  • postgresql service should have

  • password rootroot

  • mapping port 5432 to 5432

  • mounting volume ./postgres_data to /var/lib/postgresql/data

  • mongo service should have

  • initdb root username root

  • initdb root password rootroot

  • mapping port 27017 to 27017

  • mounting volume ./mongo_data to /data/db

Add .gitignore file

  • Insert redis_data, postgres_data and mongo_data directories in .gitignore file

Run Maven test command

  • Run maven clean test command to check if the project is working
Copy & paste — that's it
./mvnw clean test

Run Maven run command (Optional)

  • (Optional) docker-compose up -d to start the services, ./mvnw spring-boot:run to run the Spring Boot project, docker-compose rm -sf to stop the services.
