如何在STS内置服务器上重新部署Spring Boot应用程序

Question

I have a Spring Boot Gradle application with apply plugin: 'war' . I run the application on STS by right click > Run As > Spring Boot App . It runs fine. Now I make a change to the code and I want to redeploy (and better automatically). The only way I know now is to stop the server and run again. Is there any faster solution?

Answer 1

Spring-boot provide something called devtools which is a very neat feature.

Include this starter on your gradle build

compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-devtools")

This will automatically restart whenever files on the classpath changes. So you don't have to manually stop and start server.

you can see more details here .
