Dependency table for spring boot 2.4.3

I have a difficulty defining what dependencies versions are compatible with each other.

In my case i have this

enter image description here

I don't know for the spring boot 2.4.3 what versions of the dependencies below go with it or the cloud version to 2020.0.1.

How can i fix this for example i want to migrate the spring boot and spring cloud to its latest versions.

Solution

  • It is a good rule of thumb to not define the versions yourself but use BOMs and let them define the versions for you:

    In order to find out which BOMs to use, you can use this compatibility matrix or the endpoint that @spencergibb mentioned: https://start.spring.io/actuator/info.

    If you want to use a Spring Project that is not in the BOM, most probably that Spring Project is not supported (e.g.: Netflix libraries by latest Spring Cloud as @spencergibb mentioned).

    Update: here's a Gradle example but you can generate a whole project using Spring Initializer:

    plugins {
  id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.4.3'
  id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.11.RELEASE'
  id 'java'
}

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}
dependencyManagement {
  imports {
    mavenBom 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-dependencies:2020.0.1'
  }
}
dependencies {
  implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
  implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-circuitbreaker-resilience4j'
}
