If spring-hateoas is on the classpath and an MvcEndpoint returns a
@ResponseBody it will be extended and wrapped into a Resource with links.
All the existing endpoints that return sensible JSON data can be extended
this way (i.e. not /logfile). The HAL browser will also be added as an
endpoint if available on the classpath. Finally, asciidocs for the
Actuator endpoints are available as a separate jar file, which if
included in an app will also generate a new (HTTP) endpoint.
Fixes gh-1390
There is a new spring.factories entry for
org.springframework.boot.actuate.autoconfigure.EndpointWebMvcConfiguration
which loads extra beans into the MVC config for the Actuator.
If the management context is a child context all the beans go in the
child (except the Spring Security filter still). A big bonus is that
you can add WebConfigurerAdapters to configure static resources etc.
A new component called ManagementContextResolver can be used to
locate the ApplicationContext for the MVC endpoints.

This commit improves support of the Resource Handling features
introduced in Spring Framework 4.1. Those features add new ways to
resolve and transform static resources in applications.
See [this blog
post](https://spring.io/blog/2014/07/24/spring-framework-4-1-handling-static-web-resources)
for more details.
The `ResourceUrlEncodinFilter` is added for compatible template engines:
Velocity and Thymeleaf. It assists them with rewriting the URLs of
static resources when rendering templates.
New keys are added in the `ResourceProperties` in order to configure
the Resource Handling chain. `ResourceResolvers` and
`ResourceTransformers` are registered accordingly in
`WebMvcAutoConfiguration`.
Here is an example of enabling a `ContentVersionStrategy` on all
static resources, meaning their names will be changed for cache
busting purposes by adding a content hash at the end of the file name.
Like "/js/jquery.js -> /js/jquery-872ca6a9fdda9e2c1516a84cff5c3bc6.js".

Improve the "hints" section of the metadata so that each hint can provide
the reference to a value provider.
A value provider defines how a tool can discover the potential values of
a property based on the context. The provider is identifed by a name and
may have an arbitrary number of parameters.
Closes gh-3303
Update documentation section that discusses uber jars since it conflates
the concepts of the uber jar and the shading of dependencies into jars
(which may or may not be true uber jars).
Fixes gh-3321
Create a new section in the meta-data called "hints" where users can
provide hints about a given property. The most basic use case for now
is to provide a list of values that a property can have. Each value may
have a description.
This sample JSON provides a basic example for a property called `foo.mode`
that exposes 3 values: "auto", "basic" and "advanced".
```
"hints": [
{
"id": "foo.mode",
"values": [
{
"value": "auto",
"description": "Some smart description."
},
{
"name": "basic"
},
{
"name": "advanced"
}
]
}
]
```
This information can be read by tools (such as IDE) and offer an
auto-completion with the list of values.
Closes gh-2054
Add AnsiPropertySource which allows named ANSI codes to be resolved
and update ResourceBanner to include it.
This commit also deprecates constants defined in AnsiElement and
replaces them with AnsiStyle, AnsiColor and AnsiBackground enums.

Update `ApplicationPidFileWriter` to support a 'fail on write error'
properties which allows the user to exit the application if the PID
file cannot be written.
This commit also deprecates `spring.pidfile` in favor of
`spring.pid.file` so that the new property can be added without overlap.
Fixes gh-2764
This commit adds support for automatically configuring Spring Session.
In a web application when both Spring Session and Spring Data Redis
are on the classpath, Spring Session's Redis Http Session support
will be auto-configured. The max inactive interval for Redis-backed
sessions can be configured via the environment using the existing
server.session-timeout property.
Closes gh-2318
Migrate `spring.view.prefix` and `spring.view.suffix` to
`spring.mvc.view.prefix` and `spring.mvc.view.suffix` respectively. The
former properties are still handled in a backward compatible way and are
defined as deprecated in the meta-data.
Closes gh-3250
Improve SpringApplicationAdminMXBean to expose additional information:
* Whether the application uses an embedded container
* The properties exposed by the `Environment`
This allows to know if the application is web-based and the HTTP port
on which it is running.
Closes gh-3067
Previously, the actual HTTP port on which a web application is running on
was only exposed in tests. This commit makes sure to provide that feature
regardless of the environment so that applications can know on which port
they are actually running on.
If there are several containers, each is exposed via the namespace of
their respective application context.
Closes gh-3259
Add a new `spring.mvc.async.request-timeout` property which can be used
to configure AsyncSupportConfigurer.setDefaultTimeout(..).

for users to get started. It also makes it more flexible if different
aggregation keys are needed depending on the environment. The most
important new feature is the
spring.metrics.export.redis.aggregateKeyPattern configuration, which
fits the *.redis.key and prefix defaults. The aggregate reader uses
a prefix based on the key by default, with a naming convention that
the key starts with "keys.".
Update the Maven and Gradle repackage tasks so that the embedded
startup script is no longer included by default. This change is
primarily due to the `cf` command line not currently accepting
the unusual jar format.
Fixes gh-3045
Users can add @ExportMetric[Reader,Writer] to readers and writers that
they want to participate in the default exporter. There is also still an
@ActuatorMetricWriter that is used for the legacy (non-Java8) Gauge and
CounterServices.
The redis export and aggregate use case is a lot nicer with this
shared data between the two component types.
Also made MetricExportProperties itself a Trigger (so the default
delay etc. can be configured via spring.metrics.export.*).
Remove `spring.cache.config` as it is too generic and does not express
enough what is configured. This property is replaced by cache library
specific properties, that is `spring.cache.ehcache.config`,
`spring.cache.hazelcast.config`, `spring.cache.infinispan.config` and
`spring.cache.jcache.config`.

User can enable OAuth2 SSO by declaring the intent (@EnableOAuth2Sso)
and also configuring the client properties (spring.oauth2.client.*).
The spring.oauth2.sso.* are only needed to change the path for the
login (defaults to /login) - any other security configuration for the
protected resources can be added in a WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter
which carries the @EnableOAuth2Sso annotation.
- Apply project’s code formatting and conventions
- Don’t use the IO and worker thread configuration when creating the
worker for the AccessLogReceiver. The IO and worker thread
configuration is for HTTP request processing and a worker in its
default configuration should be sufficient for the access log
receiver.
- Don’t use a temporary directory as the default for the access log
directory. A temporary directory makes (some) sense for Tomcat as it
requires a directory for its basedir. Undertow has no such
requirement and using a temporary directory makes it hard to locate
the logs. The default has been updated to a directory named logs,
created in the current working directory.
- Document the new properties in the application properties appendix
Closes gh-3014
Allow the display-name of the application to be customized when deployed

This commit adds CORS support to the Actuator’s MVC endpoints. CORS
support is disabled by default and is only enabled once the
endpoints.cors.allowed-origins property has been set.
The new properties to control the endpoints’ CORS configuration are:
endpoints.cors.allow-credentials
endpoints.cors.allowed-origins
endpoints.cors.allowed-methods
endpoints.cors.allowed-headers
endpoints.cors.exposed-headers
The changes to enable Jolokia-specific CORS support (57a51ed) have been
reverted as part of this commit. This provides a consistent approach
to CORS configuration across all endpoints, rather than Jolokia using
its own configuration.

Different physical sources for the same logical metric just need to
publish them with a period-separated prefix, and this reader will
aggregate (by truncating the metric names, dropping the prefix).
Very useful (for instance) if multiple application instances are
feeding to a central (e.g. redis) repository and you want to
display the results. Useful in conjunction with a
MetricReaderPublicMetrics for hooking up to the /metrics endpoint.
This seems pretty efficient (approx 12M write/s as opposed to 2M with
the DefaultCounterService). N.B. there is no need to change most of
the rest of the metrics stuff because metrics are write-often, read-
seldom, so we don't need high performance reads as much.
The Spring Integration configuration and Dropwizard support has changed
a bit. Functionally very similar and probably opaque to users, but now
the messaging operates as an Exporter on a @Scheduled method, and
Dropwizard is a replacement [Gauge,Counter]Service.
Metrics are all
collected live in-memory (and can be very fast with Java 8), buffered
there and shipped out to a MessageChannel (if one exists with id
"metricsChannel") in a background thread.
We can still use Java 8 library APIs (like LongAdder) but to compile
to java 7 compatible byte code we have to forgo the use of lambdas :-(
and shorthand generics (<>).
Fixes gh-2682, fixes gh-2513 (for Java 8 and Dropwizard users).
Some of the features of the launch.script were not exposed for users
to be able to control at runtime. It now accepts things like
PID_FOLDER and LOG_FOLDER as environment variables, and also adopts
a clear naming convention where only the inputs are UPPER_CASE.
For reasons that I don’t understand, Maven has decided to stop running
the javadoc:jar task as part of the package phase. It appears to be
related to the addition of the build-helper plugin in
spring-boot-dependencies. Binding javadoc:jar to the prepare-package
phase convinces Maven to run it, apparently without any unwanted side
effects.
Previously, the CLI’s dependency management used proprietary Properties
file-based metadata to configure its dependency management. Since
spring-boot-gradle-plugin’s move to using the separate dependency
management plugin the CLI was the only user of this format.
This commit updates the CLI to use Maven boms to configure its
dependency management. By default it uses the spring-boot-dependencies
bom. This configuration can be augmented and overridden using the new
@DependencyManagementBom annotation which replaces @GrabMetadata.

This reverts commit b1c0a7cda4.
The plugin publishing process has moved to a new plugin-based approach
that brings with it some significant limitations:
- There's no staging to allow the promotion of good release builds
- There's no easy way to upload an existing artifact
- There's no control over the published pom.
The risk brought by these limitations, particularly the first, are
too great so we will no be publishing the Boot plugin to the Portal
until they're resolved.
Changing the plugin's ID was a breaking change that would require
users to do some work when they upgrade to Boot 1.3. The ID of the
plugin was changed purely so that it met the Portal's requirements.
Given that the plugin will not be published to the Portal for the
foreseaable future there's no need for us to inflict a breaking change
on people when there will be no benefit.
