Requirements

To ensure the ongoing health of the Spring Boot community, a starter that is included on start.spring.io must meet the following requirements.

Code of Conduct

This project adheres to the Contributor Covenant code of conduct. By participating, you are expected to adhere to this code. If you have not already done so, we also encourage you to adopt a code of conduct in your own project.

Well-established project with a vibrant community

To avoid overwhelming users with too much choice, we aim for each starter to be of interest to a broad range of start.spring.io’s users. One way to ensure this is for each starter to represent a well-established project with a vibrant community.

Please provide some links that provide some evidence for this. We’re looking for things like GitHub stars, multiple contributors, ongoing maintenance, Stack Overflow questions, etc.

Ongoing maintenance

To ensure that the Spring Boot community has a good experience with your starter, it should be kept up-to-date with the latest Spring Boot releases and maintenance releases should be shipped as needed. When a new release is made, a pull request should be made to this project to ensure that the Spring Boot community are using the latest version

Continuous integration

Maven Central

Starters that are included on start.spring.io must be available on Maven Central. https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/info.picocli/picocli-spring-boot-starter

[x] Starter and all of its dependencies are available on Maven Central.

Configuration metadata

If you starter provides @ConfigurationProperties it should provide metadata for those properties to enable auto-completion in the IDE. Metadata can be provided by adding field level documentation on each of the properties and adding the spring-boot-configuration-processor to your build.

[ ] Starter provides metadata, including documentation, for all its configuration properties.

Version mappings

Spring Initializr allows different versions of a starter to be used with different versions of Spring Boot. For example, if a project is being generated with Spring Boot version W you may want to use Starter version X and if a project is being generated with Spring Boot version Y you may want to use Starter version Z.

Please provide the details of any mappings between particular version of Spring Boot and particular versions of your starter.

Update:

Picocli 4.6.2 (to be released soon) now builds against Spring Boot 2.5.6 (the latest GA release). I also tested against Spring Boot 2.6.0-SNAPSHOT without any issues.

The README for the picocli-spring-boot-starter module now mentions the tested dependency range.

Update: picocli 4.6.2 was released Nov 5.
