I am happy to announce the availability of Spring Modulith 1.4 M1, 1.3.2, and 1.2.8. While the latter contain a few bug fixes and the usual dependency upgrades to the latest Spring Boot releases, the milestone release ships a couple of important new features.

• GH-928 – Move to Micrometer Observations API – Marcin Grzejszczak was kind enough to port our existing instrumentation based on the tracing APIs to the more modern observations API that allows more fine-grained integration and capturing of metrics. Stay tuned for a more detailed blog post coming soon!

• GH-933 – Consider global proxy settings for proxies created.

• GH-1009 - SPI to detect NamedInterfaces programatically.

• GH-1037 - Upgrade to Spring Boot 3.5 M1.

• GH-961 – Upgrade to Structurizr 3.1.

…

On behalf of the community, I am delighted to announce the releases of Spring Modulith 1.3.1, 1.2.7, and 1.1.12.

The releases primarily ship dependency updates and bug fixes, but 1.3.1 also includes a couple of improvements in both our own reference documentation but also in our documentation generation support.

Happy Holidays!

After half a year of development, Spring Modulith 1.3 GA has been released. It is packed with new features, improvements, and – best of all – community contributions. Let me walk you through some of the most interesting ones.

Baseline Upgrades

As usual, a new minor version of Spring Modulith upgrades to the latest releases of both Spring Boot and Spring Framework, 3.4 and 6.2 respectively. That said, we still remain compatible with the previous generations of each of them so that you can selectively upgrade to Spring Modulith 1.3 without having to the latest Boot and Framework versions.

On behalf of the community, I am delighted to announce the avability of Spring Modulith 1.3 RC1, 1.2.5, and 1.1.10. While the service releases contain a few bugfixes and the usual dependency updates, the release candidate is packed with features and improvements such as (full change log here):

I am happy to announce the availability of Spring Modulith 1.3 M3, 1.2.4, and 1.1.9. While the latter two ship the usual bugfixes and service release bugfix upgrades, I am particularly delighted about the milestone releases as it contains two major community contributions. Here are the most significant new features:

• Support for change-aware test execution (contributed by @lukasdo and @davidbilge) which optimizes test runs along the changes made to the application by skipping tests not affected by those.
• A new deleting event publication completion mode to — as the name suggests — immediately delete completed event publications.
• Support for contributing application modules from other packages and external JARs.
• Support for Microsoft SQL Server in JDBC-based event publication registry (contributed by @oyjoh, GH-804).
• Deprecate spring.modulith.republish-outstanding-events-on-restart in favor of the variant residing in spring.modulith.test.… (GH-823…
