I try to make completion for custom properties in Spring Boot.
I tried to create a simple project via IntelliJ IDEA 2016.3:
1. Created a new Gradle project with Spring Boot Initializer (I haven’t checked nothing at all).
2. Created a new class Properties.
3. When I annotated it with @ConfigurationProperties, the next notification has appeared:
The documentation said that I should add the following to my project:
dependencies {
optional "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor"
}
compileJava.dependsOn(processResources)
After that I tried to rebuild project and enable annotation processors in settings but the notification hasn’t gone. Completion doesn’t work too (I created a string my).
I had the same problem. I use idea 2017.2 and gradle 4.1,
and some blog said you should add:
dependencies {
optional "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor"
}
But I changed it to this:
dependencies {
compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor"
}
And the warning is gone.
Answer：
According to the Spring Boot docs, the correct configuration since Gradle 4.6 is
dependencies {
annotationProcessor group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-configuration-processor'
// ...
}
IntelliJ IDEA supports annotationProcessor scope since build 193.3382 (2019.3).
Answer：
I forgot to add propdeps-plugin. However, I remember that it didn’t work for me even with the plugin on 2016.3, So as @CrazyCoder mentioned, try to downgrade Gradle or download the new 2017.1 version (details).
Also you may receive Re-run Spring Boot Configuration Annotation Processor to update generated metadata when you will solve this issue. For this, click Refresh all Gradle projects (in Gradle side menu).
Answer：
It happens to me for two reasons in IDEA:
- Double check if your setting is picked (enabled) in IDEA: Preferences->Annotation Processors->Enable annotation processing.
- After update your Idea, check your plugins and update them. It happens that plugins become incompatible with your new IDEA version, so just click to update them.
Answer：
In version 2018.3 of IntelliJ, I solved this problem (as per this documentation) in the following way:
With Gradle 4.5 and earlier, the dependency should be declared in the
compileOnly configuration, as shown in the following example:dependencies { compileOnly "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor" }With Gradle 4.6 and later, the dependency should be declared in the
annotationProcessor configuration, as shown in the following example:dependencies { annotationProcessor "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor" }
Answer：
In maven project helps adding dependency spring-boot-configuration-processor and marking main class with @EnableConfigurationProperties(AppProperties.class).
Maybe somebody helps.
Answer：
I had the same problem with IntelliJ version 2018.1.2. I also had to define the actual version of spring-boot-configuration-processor in order to get it worked:
compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor:2.0.1.RELEASE')
Answer：
following works for me:
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
maven { url 'https://repo.jenkins-ci.org/public/' }
maven { url 'http://repo.spring.io/plugins-release' }
}
dependencies {
classpath "io.spring.gradle:propdeps-plugin:0.0.9.RELEASE"
}
}
...
apply plugin: 'propdeps'
apply plugin: 'propdeps-eclipse'
apply plugin: 'propdeps-idea'
...
dependencyManagement {
imports {
mavenBom 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-parent:2.0.0.RELEASE'
}
}
...
dependencies {
compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter"
compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator"
annotationProcessor "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor" // for @ConfigurationProperties, make sure compileJava.dependsOn(processResources)
...
}
compileJava.dependsOn(processResources)
Answer：
For Kotlin projects, the working configuration since Gradle 4.6 is using annotation processor
apply plugin: "kotlin-kapt"
dependencies {
kapt("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor:$springBootVersion")
compileOnly("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor:$springBootVersion")
}
