3. Spring Boot

3.1 Create a @SpringBootApplication class. Run this class to start the Spring Boot web application.
SpringBootWebApplication.java
package com.mycareerrepublic;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootWebApplication {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
SpringApplication.run(SpringBootWebApplication.class, args);
}

}
3.2 A simple controller class.
WelcomeController.java
package com.mycareerrepublic;

import java.util.Map;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

@Controller
public class WelcomeController {

// inject via application.properties
@Value("${app.welcome.message}")
private String MESSAGE = "";

@Value("${app.welcome.title}")
private String TITLE = "";

@RequestMapping("/")
public String welcome(Map<String, Object> model) {
model.put("title", TITLE);
model.put("message", MESSAGE);
return "welcome";
}

// test 5xx errors
@RequestMapping("/5xx")
public String ServiceUnavailable() {
throw new RuntimeException("ABC");
}

}

4. Mustache + Resources + Static files

4.1 For Mustache template files, put in src/main/resources/templates/
src/main/resources/templates/layout/header.html
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<head>

<title>{{title}}</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="webjars/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css" />

</head>
<!-- this is header -->
src/main/resources/templates/layout/footer.html
<!--  this is footer -->
</html>
src/main/resources/templates/welcome.html
{{>layout/header}}
<body>

<nav class="navbar navbar-inverse">
<div class="container">
<div class="navbar-header">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Spring Boot</a>
</div>
</div>
</nav>

<div class="container">

<div class="starter-template">
<h1>Spring Boot Web Mustache Example</h1>
<h2>
{{message}}
</h2>
</div>

</div>
<!-- /.container -->

<script type="text/javascript" src="webjars/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

</body>
{{>layout/footer}}
4.2 For static files like CSS or Javascript, put in /src/main/resources/static/
/src/main/resources/static/css/main.css
h1{
color:#0000FF;
}

h2{
color:#FF0000;
}
4.3 For error templates.
Note
Read this Spring Boot – Error Handling to understand how the default error mapping page works.
src/main/resources/templates/error.html
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<body>
Something went wrong: {{status}} {{error}}
</body>

</html>
src/main/resources/templates/error/5xx.html
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<body>
I'm a 5xx
</body>

</html>
4.4 For properties files, put in /src/main/resources/
/src/main/resources/application.properties
app.welcome.message: Hello Mycareerrepublic
app.welcome.title: Spring Boot Mustache Hello World Example
Note
Read this Spring Boot Serving static content to understand the resource mapping.

5. Unit Test

5.1 Unit test example to test above Spring Boot web application.
MustacheApplicationTests
package com.mycareerrepublic;

import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat;

import java.util.Arrays;

import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment;
import org.springframework.boot.test.web.client.TestRestTemplate;
import org.springframework.http.HttpEntity;
import org.springframework.http.HttpHeaders;
import org.springframework.http.HttpMethod;
import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.http.MediaType;
import org.springframework.http.ResponseEntity;
import org.springframework.test.annotation.DirtiesContext;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringRunner;

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@DirtiesContext
public class MustacheApplicationTests {

@Autowired
private TestRestTemplate restTemplate;

@Test
public void testMainPage() throws Exception {

ResponseEntity<String> entity = this.restTemplate.getForEntity("/", String.class);
assertThat(entity.getStatusCode()).isEqualTo(HttpStatus.OK);
assertThat(entity.getBody()).contains("Hello mycareerrepublic");

}

@Test
public void test404Page() throws Exception {

HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.TEXT_HTML));
HttpEntity<String> requestEntity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
ResponseEntity<String> responseEntity = this.restTemplate.exchange("/uri-not-exist", HttpMethod.GET,
requestEntity, String.class);
assertThat(responseEntity.getStatusCode()).isEqualTo(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
assertThat(responseEntity.getBody()).contains("Something went wrong: 404 Not Found");

}

@Test
public void test5xxPage() throws Exception {

HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.TEXT_HTML));
HttpEntity<String> requestEntity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
ResponseEntity<String> responseEntity = this.restTemplate.exchange("/5xx", HttpMethod.GET, requestEntity,
String.class);
assertThat(responseEntity.getStatusCode()).isEqualTo(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
assertThat(responseEntity.getBody()).contains("I'm a 5xx");

}

}

6. Demo

Note
In IDE, run the @SpringBootApplication annotated class, and the entire Spring Boot application will be started.
6.1 Start the Spring Boot web app.
Terminal
project$ mvn spring-boot:run
