/Spring Boot Auto-configuration: Magic under the Hood
Spring Boot Auto-configuration: Magic under the Hood
Learn the internals of Spring Boot auto-configuration, and uncover the secrets behind it.
We'll cover the following...
Try adding another web server
Unlike other lessons, we will start this lesson with the code-first approach. We will add Jetty along with Tomcat in our application, and notice what happens.
Check auto-configuration report
Run the below application after enabling all actuator endpoints and check the auto-configuration report, or check directly from URL /actuator/conditions.
We are looking for the ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration class in the report.

Actuator report findings
You should find three occurrences of the ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration class.
- Tomcat: Positive match
ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration.EmbeddedTomcat": [
{
"condition": "OnClassCondition",
"message": "@ConditionalOnClass found required classes 'javax.servlet.Servlet', 'org.apache.catalina.startup.Tomcat', 'org.apache.coyote.UpgradeProtocol'"
},
{
"condition": "OnBeanCondition",
"message": "@ConditionalOnMissingBean (types: org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.server.ServletWebServerFactory; SearchStrategy: current) did not find any beans"
}
As we are using the Tomcat web server, the match is positive.
- Jetty: Negative Match
ServletWebServerFactoryConfiguration.EmbeddedJetty": {
"notMatched": [
{
"condition": "OnClassCondition",
"message": "@ConditionalOnClass did not find required classes 'org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server', 'org.eclipse.jetty.util.Loader', 'org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext'"
}
],
"matched": []
The match is negative as we don’t have any dependency added for the Jetty ...
