This commit upgrades to Spring Framework 5.0.0.RC1. It also upgrades
the Spring Boot-based samples to use Spring Boot 2.0.0.M1 which
supports Spring Framework 5. Lastly, it upgrades a number of
third-party dependencies to align with Spring Framework 5 and Spring
Boot 2.
Closes gh-386
Previously, if the main project hadn't been installed in the local
Maven repository (./gradlew install), rest-notes-spring-data-rest
would fail to build as the plugin dependency,
spring-restdocs-asciidoctor, was not available.
This commit corrects the problem by adding
repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot as a plugin repository in addition to
its existing declaration as a "normal" repository.
Fixes gh-382
Closes gh-383
Previously, when a field was documented it would implicitly document
the whole subsection of the payload identified by that field. This
could lead to users inadvertently failing to document part of the
payload. Arguably, this was a bug as it violated REST Docs' principle
of producing accurate, detail documentation. However, fixing it
requires a breaking change as people may also be relying on this
behaviour. A balance needed to be struck so the fix is being made in
a minor release.
This commit introduces a new subsectionWithPath method which returns a
SubsectionDescriptor; a specialisation of FieldDescriptor. Users
that were intentionally relying on the old behaviour will have to
replace some usage of fieldWithPath with subsectionWithPath instead.
Users who were unintentionally relying on the old behaviour will have
to add some additional descriptors produced using fieldWithPath and
will receive more accurate documentation in return.
Closes gh-274
Rather than introducing a custom macro, this commit opts to implicitly
configure the snippets attribute instead. The attribute is configured
will the path into which snippets are generated, relative to the
directory that contains the Asciidoctor document that is being
rendered.
The samples and documentation have been updated to use the new
spring-restdocs-asciidoctor module and the implicitly configured
snippets attribute.
Closes gh-297
Rather than requiring an output directory to be explcitly configured,
a default is now automatically configured based on the build tool
that's being used. When using Gradle, snippets will be generated in
build/generated-snippets. When using Maven, snippets will be
generated in target/generated-snippets.

In 1.0, the reliance on JUnit was more widespread than it should have
been. It should have been isolated to the JUnit TestRule implementation,
RestDocumentation. Unfortunately, RestDocumentation was also an argument
to MockMvcRestDocumentation.documentationConfiguration which made it
impossible to use Spring REST Docs without having JUnit on the
classpath.
This commit introduces JUnitRestDocumentation and
ManualRestDocumentation. The format is a direct replacement for
RestDocumentation which has been reworked to delegate to
JUnitRestDocumentation. The latter allows manual management of the
RestDocumentationContext, primarily for use with TestNG.
A new interface, RestDocumentationContextProvider, has been introduced.
It is implemented by RestDocumentation, JUnitRestDocumentation and
ManualRestDocumentation.
MockMvcRestDocumentation.documentationConfiguration has been overridden
to also accept a RestDocumentationContextProvider. The method that
accepts a RestDocumentation has been deprecated, as has
RestDocumentation itself.
The documentation has been updated to encourage the use of
JUnitRestDocumentation and a sample illustrating the use of Spring REST
Docs with TestNG has been added.
Closes gh-171
