This Week in Spring - June 7th, 2022

Engineering | Josh Long | June 07, 2022 | ...

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I've just landed in tantalizing Toronto, Canada, for the SpringOne Tour Toronto show. I'm so excited to be here, at long last, after so long away from one of my favorite countries. I'll be doing two talks - my usual, Kubernetes Native Java, and a talk on building Kubernetes Controllers (a.k.a. "Operators") using the official Kubernetes Java client, Spring Boot, and Spring Native with my amazing friend and teammate Tiffany Jernigan, who you may recall was on the podcast not too long ago.

After Toronto, I'm off to beautiful Berlin, Germany, for the We Are Developers show

Spring Tips: Learn Spring for GraphQL (parts 1 and 2 of an ongoing series)

Engineering | Josh Long | June 02, 2022 | ...

Hi, Spring fans! In thi^^^ these installments, we begin a new series introducing the Spring for GraphQL project.

In this first installment, GraphQL Java lead Andi Marek (@andimarek) and I (@starbuxman) look at the basics of using the GraphQL Java engine that underpins Spring for GraphQL.

In this second installment, Andi and I are joined by Spring for GraphQL lead Rossen Stoyanchev (@rstoya05) as we look at using the Spring for GraphQL component model by writing queries.

I know it's been more than a month since we last published a video, so I'm going to be releasing every episode of this series very quickly, over the next week or two. I've already recorded and mostly finished producing eight episodes. I'm working on producing a ninth, and that'll be that! A complete introduction to all things Spring for GraphQL. These are of course part of the usual Spring Tips playlist on YouTube, but also part of the Learn Spring for GraphQL with Josh Long

This Week in Spring - May 31st, 2022

Engineering | Josh Long | May 31, 2022 | ...

Hi, Spring fans! And welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I've just returned from three wonderful weeks overseas and now, I'm pleased as punch to convey, that I'm home! And hopefully, COVID-19 free! Who knows what sort of nonsense I caught on the flight home, anyway. Some things, I've always said, shouldn't be open source! But knowledge isn't one of them and I had a lot of fun with this week's roundup, so let's dive right into it!

Preparing for Spring Boot 3.0

Engineering | Phil Webb | May 24, 2022 | ...

Spring Boot 2.0 was the first release in the 2.x line and was published on Feburary 28th 2018. We’ve just released Spring Boot 2.7 which means that, so far, we’ve been maintaining the 2.x line for just over 4 years. In total we’ve published 95 distinct releases over that timeframe!

The entire Spring team, and many in our community of contributors, are now preparing for the next generation of Spring. We are planning to release Spring Boot 3.0 in November 2022. This next major revision will be based on Spring Framework 6.0 and will require Java 17 or above. It will also be the first version of Spring Boot that makes use of Jakarta EE 9 APIs (jakarta.*) instead of EE 8 (javax.*

Hi, Spring fans! I'm in Spain for business and not just a little pleasure. Yesterday, my partner, her mother, and I went to Formentera, Spain, a little island off of Ibiza, Spain. It was amazing. We're now in Ibiza, Spain, which is a little island not far from Barcelona, Spain, on the mainland of Spain. It feels a bit like that Inception movie. We traveled by boat to Formentera for a little vacation inside of another little vacation (Ibiza) and inside of another little vacation (Barcelona). Tomorrow I'll return to Barcelona for the Spring IO event. Yes, technically, this is work. But it's an…
