- Groovy DSL

- Kotlin DSL

| You can open this sample inside an IDE using the IntelliJ native importer or Eclipse Buildship.

This sample shows how a Spring Boot Web application can be built with Gradle. The application was generated using the Spring Initializr.

build.gradle

    plugins {
    	id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.2.1.RELEASE'
    	id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.8.RELEASE'
    	id 'java'
    }

    version = '1.0.2'
    group = 'org.gradle.samples'

    java {
    	sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    repositories {
    	mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
    	implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter'
    	testImplementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
    		exclude group: 'org.junit.vintage', module: 'junit-vintage-engine'
    	}
    }

    tasks.named('test', Test) {
    	useJUnitPlatform()
    }

build.gradle.kts

    plugins {
        id("org.springframework.boot") version("2.2.1.RELEASE")
        id("io.spring.dependency-management") version("1.0.8.RELEASE")
        java
    }

    version = "1.0.2"
    group = "org.gradle.samples"

    java {
        sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        implementation("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter")
        testImplementation("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test") {
            exclude(mapOf("group" to "org.junit.vintage", "module" to "junit-vintage-engine"))
        }
    }

    tasks.named<Test>("test") {
        useJUnitPlatform()
    }

To build and run the application:

    $ ./gradlew bootRun

    > Task :bootRun
