Update to spring boot 2

[8rV1n]

I'm using a spring boot release 2 and I found something are different especially in the security part that made my application hard to transfer to angular.

No, these samples have not been upgraded to Spring Boot 2.0. Please see the migration guide if you want help with your own project (or are volunteering to update this one): https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/wiki/Spring-Boot-2.0-Migration-Guide.

I'm trying something with formLogin right now but something strange occured that I just got error situations without any more information avaliable. I will try basic login in a few days and if it success I might update this.

Sorry if this is is potential content for a new issue but I think the relation is strong enough to this one, so my question is:

Is it planned for the near future to update this guide to more recent versions?

I am not only asking this with regards to spring-boot(->security) but also to angular which underwent some major changes in the meantime. The corresponding tutorial is hard to follow as it is now with recent versions, due to the changes that have to be researched and made. Until now I didn't find a good introduction of similar scope which was quite well, so it would be really helpful to see an update on this one.

@Wolfonye I had used this version of spring for integration with angular the latest about a month ago and it was working in form login case. I think it's also the same mechanism for both the angular and the spring boot 2.0. So from what I've understood, you're worrying changes from angular that may affect the tutorial and the correction of the tutorial, is it right?

[Wolfonye]

@ArvinSiChuan Correct; at least that's what I ran into while doing the tutorial; I will try to give some examples; first: the linked source which describes integrating angular into the build mechanisms is not up to date with changes in Angular (changed naming of the cli-config-file, that one is quite simple to fix; I think there is an open issue on their side). Further, as of Angular...6.. I think, this:

this.http.post('logout', {}).finally(() => [...]

will no longer work as refered in app.component.ts (I refer to the version of the file after first revision of security issues with basic authentication, which btw. may need explanation of creation of own certificates for testing, but that's not this issue I suppose) in the official tutorial:

https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-security-and-angular-js/

due to breaking changes in rxjs; see:

https://github.com/ReactiveX/rxjs/blob/master/doc/pipeable-operators.md

Relevant Versions I used:

• Angular CLI: 6.0.0 -> rxjs 6.2.0
• Angular: 6.0.4

Hi,

I'm starting a brand new project using Spring Boot 2 and Angular 5 (hopefully 6 rapidly).

A "Getting Started" tutorial in those up-to-date versions would be most welcome.

Hope it's coming out any time soon.

There's a branch "boot2" which you can use to get off the ground. Coverage is limited to the first two or three sections of the guide at the minute.

[Wolfonye]

@dsyer Good to see there is work going on on this! Thank you for your efforts! I am not sure; should I open a separate issue for the angular-part of this?

[dsyer]

Up to you. My plan was to get Boot 2 working first and then upgrade Angular (seems like it won't be too hard).

[avi613]

The Angular part of the tutorial would be extremely welcome anyway!

[dsyer]

The "vanilla" sample is now working on the boot2 branch. I think upgrading Angular will be easy (see https://github.com/dsyer/spring-boot-angular for example - there's an "upgrade" branch where I moved from Angular 4 to 6, and master is Angular 6).

[dsyer]

The "proxy" sample is now working with Boot 2. I removed the "spring-session" sample (never liked that one anyway).
