Dependency management

jeap-spring-boot-parent centralizes the versions of jEAP libraries and commonly used Maven plugins so consuming projects can omit <version> on managed dependencies. This page summarizes what is managed; the authoritative source is the <properties>, <dependencyManagement> and <pluginManagement> sections of pom.xml.

Spring Boot / Spring Cloud baseline​

The parent itself inherits from ch.admin.bit.jeap:jeap-internal-spring-boot-parent, which supplies the underlying Spring Boot and Spring Cloud dependency management. jeap-spring-boot-parent layers the jEAP version management on top.

The jEAP starter set (jeap-starter.version)​

A single property — jeap-starter.version — drives the version of the jEAP Spring Boot starters:

<properties>
    <jeap-starter.version>23.6.0</jeap-starter.version>
</properties>

Managed starters using this property include:

  • jeap-spring-boot-application-starter (added by default via the spring profile)
  • jeap-spring-boot-logging-starter
  • jeap-spring-boot-security-starter, jeap-spring-boot-security-starter-test
  • jeap-spring-boot-monitoring-starter
  • jeap-spring-boot-web-config-starter, jeap-spring-boot-swagger-starter
  • jeap-spring-boot-vault-starter, jeap-spring-boot-object-storage-starter
  • jeap-spring-boot-postgresql-aws-starter, jeap-spring-boot-tx
  • jeap-spring-boot-featureflag-starter

A few starters are versioned independently of jeap-starter.version, e.g. jeap-spring-boot-db-migration-starter (jeap-db-migration-starter.version), jeap-spring-boot-config-aws-starter (jeap-config-aws-starter.version), jeap-spring-boot-tls-starter (jeap-tls-starter.version) and jeap-spring-boot-roles-anywhere-starter (jeap-spring-boot-roles-anywhere-starter.version).

Other managed jEAP libraries​

Each of these has its own version property:

jeap-messaging is imported as a BOM (<type>pom</type><scope>import</scope>), so all messaging module versions come from that import.

Managed Maven plugins​

<pluginManagement> pins the following so they can be used without a <version>:

  • jeap-messaging-avro-maven-plugin and jeap-messaging-contract-maven-plugin (versioned by jeap-messaging.version)
  • truststore-maven-plugin (jeap-truststore-maven-plugin.version)
  • jib-maven-plugin (jib-maven-plugin.version)
  • jeap-opensearch-index-type-registry-maven-plugin (jeap-opensearch-index-type-registry-maven-plugin.version)

Build profiles​

  • spring — active by default; adds jeap-spring-boot-application-starter to the consuming project.
  • no-spring — opt out of the default Spring application starter (for non-Spring libraries).
  • parent-build-only — runs the license-compliance and third-party-license plugins for the parent's own build; not intended for consuming projects.
