Implementation example of building Spring Boot aggregation project

1. Create the parent project

  • Open IntelliJ IDEA and selectNew Project

  • Select in the Create WizardMaven, make sure to selectCreate from archetype,choose:maven-archetype-quickstart

  • Fill in project information:

    • GroupId(Can be modified according to requirements)

    • ArtifactIdspringboot-aggregator(The name of the parent project)

    • Version1.0-SNAPSHOT(or other version number)

  • ClickFinishComplete the creation of the parent project.

2. Configure the parent project's

In parent projectIn the file, add Spring Boot's parent POM and other related configurations to manage all submodules:

<project xmlns="/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http:///2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="/POM/4.0.0 /xsd/maven-4.0.">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId></groupId>
    <artifactId>springboot-aggregator</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <packaging>pom</packaging>

    <parent>
        <groupId></groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>2.7.5</version>
        <relativePath/>
    </parent>

    <modules>
        <!-- Submodules will be listed here -->
    </modules>

    <properties>
        <>1.8</>
    </properties>

    <dependencyManagement>
        <dependencies>
            <!-- Unified management dependency version -->
            <dependency>
                <groupId></groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>
    </dependencyManagement>
</project>

3. Create submodules

  • Right-click the parent project (springboot-aggregator),chooseNew > Module

  • chooseMavenModule type, then fill in the module name (for exampleservice-userservice-productservice-order)。

  • After the module is created, in the parent projectThe corresponding submodules will be automatically added to the file<module>

4. Configure the submodule

Each submodule'sInherit the parent module and add relevant dependencies as needed. For example,service-userModularIt can be as follows:

<project xmlns="/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http:///2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="/POM/4.0.0 /xsd/maven-4.0.">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId></groupId>
    <artifactId>service-user</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <packaging>jar</packaging>

    <parent>
        <groupId></groupId>
        <artifactId>springboot-aggregator</artifactId>
        <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
        <relativePath>../</relativePath>
    </parent>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId></groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId></groupId>
                <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

5. Write Spring Boot application code

Write specific business logic in each submodule. For example,service-userIn the module, create a simple Spring Boot application:

package ;

import ;
import ;

@SpringBootApplication
public class ServiceUserApplication {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        (, args);
    }
}

6. Build and run

  • Execute in the parent projectmvn clean installTo build the entire aggregation project.

  • At runtime, Spring Boot application can be run separately in each submodule. For example,service-userRight-click in the module,chooseRunTo start the Spring Boot application of this module.

Through the above steps, you can successfully build a Spring Boot aggregation project to help you better manage different functional modules.
