Upgrade Spring Boot
Overview
This skill automates the process of upgrading Spring Boot projects to a newer version using the Arconia CLI. It applies OpenRewrite recipes to update dependencies, replace deprecated APIs, and adjust configurations, reducing the manual effort required for major version upgrades.
Instructions
Prerequisites
- Arconia CLI must be installed and available in the system PATH.
- The project must use Maven or Gradle as the build tool.
- The project must be under version control (e.g., Git) so changes can be reviewed and reverted if needed.
Supported Actions
- Preview upgrade: View changes before applying them.
- Upgrade project: Apply the upgrade to the specified Spring Boot version.
- Verbose output: Include detailed logs for troubleshooting.
Parameters
Input Format
All actions require a JSON object with the following structure:
{
"action": "<action>",
"project_path": "<path-to-project>",
[ "to_version": "<target-version>", ]
[ "dry_run": <boolean>, ]
[ "verbose": <boolean> ]
}
Action-Specific Parameters
| Action | Required Parameters | Optional Parameters |
|---|---|---|
preview | project_path | to_version, verbose |
upgrade | project_path | to_version, dry_run, verbose |
project_path: Path to the Spring Boot project directory.to_version: Target Spring Boot version (e.g.,"4.0"). Defaults to"4.0".dry_run: Iftrue, preview changes without applying them. Defaults tofalse.verbose: Iftrue, include detailed output. Defaults tofalse.
Examples
1. Preview upgrade to Spring Boot 4.0
Input:
{
"action": "preview",
"project_path": "./my-spring-boot-app",
"to_version": "4.0",
"verbose": true
}
Output: List of changes that will be applied, including dependency updates, API replacements, and configuration adjustments.
2. Upgrade project to Spring Boot 4.0
Input:
{
"action": "upgrade",
"project_path": "./my-spring-boot-app",
"to_version": "4.0",
"dry_run": false,
"verbose": true
}
Output: Confirmation of upgrade completion or error details if the upgrade fails.
3. Upgrade with build tool parameters
Input:
{
"action": "upgrade",
"project_path": "./my-spring-boot-app",
"to_version": "3.5.8",
"dry_run": false,
"verbose": false
}
Output: Confirmation of upgrade, using default build tool parameters.
Error Handling
- If Arconia CLI is not found:
"Error: Arconia CLI is required but not installed. Install it from [Arconia CLI docs](https://docs.arconia.io/arconia-cli/latest/update/spring-boot/)." - If the project path is invalid or not a Spring Boot project:
"Error: Invalid project path or not a Spring Boot project." - For upgrade failures:
Return the raw error message from the Arconia CLI.
