To be compatible with Gradle's plugin portal, plugins must have an
ID that uses a reverse domain name. This means that spring-boot is
not compatible.
This commit introduces a new ID, org.springframework.boot, and
deprecates the old ID.
Closes gh-6997
This reverts commit b1c0a7cda4.
The plugin publishing process has moved to a new plugin-based approach
that brings with it some significant limitations:
- There's no staging to allow the promotion of good release builds
- There's no easy way to upload an existing artifact
- There's no control over the published pom.
The risk brought by these limitations, particularly the first, are
too great so we will no be publishing the Boot plugin to the Portal
until they're resolved.
Changing the plugin's ID was a breaking change that would require
users to do some work when they upgrade to Boot 1.3. The ID of the
plugin was changed purely so that it met the Portal's requirements.
Given that the plugin will not be published to the Portal for the
foreseaable future there's no need for us to inflict a breaking change
on people when there will be no benefit.
See gh-1567
Gradle’s plugin portal requires each plugin’s ID to be in a namespace.
Our existing ID, spring-boot, does not meet this requirement. This
commit changes the plugin’s ID to org.springframework.boot.spring-boot.
Note that, as is recommended [1], the plugin’s ID does not include
“gradle”.

The Git plugin was primarily being used to provide version information
that Boot's maven plugin can add into the MANIFEST.MF of the uber-jars
that it creates under the Spring-Boot-Commit-Id attribute.
This commit removes the Git plugin from Boot's own projects, but
leaves it in the spring-boot-starter-parent for use by Spring
Boot-based applications.
The attribute in the uber-jars' MANIFEST.MF has been replaced with a
Spring-Boot-Version attribute. The value of this attribute is the
implementation version of Repackager class's package.
To use PropertiesLauncher instead of JarLauncher in an
executable JAR we have provided tooling support. In Maven
(using the starter parent to default some of the settings):
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<layout>ZIP</layout>
</configuration>
</plugin>
in Gradle:
apply plugin: "spring-boot"
springBoot {
layout = 'ZIP'
}
}
[Fixes#58837492] [bs-330] Add tooling for PropertiesLauncher
PropertiesLauncher can now be used to run an executable jar, and by
default it will pick up nested archives in lib/ (where the Boot
tools puts them). User can provide loader.path (colon-separated)
to change the nested path.
