Run Spring Boot Locally with FlyEnv
Spring Boot services commonly run with a Java runtime and may connect to a database, Redis, and a local reverse proxy. FlyEnv manages those environment services alongside the application.
Local project stack
Services FlyEnv can manage around Spring Boot
- Java
- PostgreSQL / MySQL
- Redis
- Nginx / Caddy
About Spring Boot
Spring Boot is a Java framework for building stand-alone, production-ready services.
Project resources
For installation commands, supported versions, and project-specific configuration, refer to the official Spring Boot documentation.
Typical local stack
The exact services depend on the project, its release, and its local configuration. This is a common local setup, not a fixed requirement.
- Java
- PostgreSQL / MySQL
- Redis
- Nginx / Caddy
| Component | Typical role |
|---|---|
| Java | Runs the Spring Boot application. |
| PostgreSQL / MySQL | May store service data. |
| Redis | May support caching or messaging patterns. |
| Nginx / Caddy | May proxy a local service domain. |
How FlyEnv helps
Select the Java runtime
Use the JDK version required by the service.
Keep data services local
Run the project database without mixing it into other stacks.
Start Redis when configured
Keep cache and supporting services available only where needed.
Expose a local service URL
Configure domains and HTTPS for integration testing when useful.
Set up the local environment
Project installation stays with the upstream documentation. FlyEnv manages the runtimes, databases, web servers, and supporting services around it.
- 1Follow the project build documentation for its Gradle or Maven workflow.
- 2Select the Java runtime required by the service.
- 3Start the database selected in the Spring configuration.
- 4Start Redis only when the application configuration uses it.
- 5Configure a local domain and reverse proxy for service testing when needed.
- 6Group the service and its dependencies for repeatable local starts.
