Overview of Spring Boot Multi-Module Projects

A Multi-Module Project is a structure that divides an application into multiple independent modules, each serving a specific function. It offers advantages such as simplified builds, flexible deployment, and code reusability, while also supporting microservices architecture. The parent module acts as a container for sub-modules, managing dependencies and build order through a central pom.xml file.

Spring Boot Multi Module Project

An Overview
What is a Multi Module Project
• Multi-Module Project is just a set of multiple projects where each project has its own
respective function.

• In a Multi-Module Project, an application is divided into multiple modules, where each


module plays an important role in the certain functionality of an application.

• A module can be considered as an independent project or sub-project.


Advantages of a Multi-Module Project
• It provides a great ability to build all sub-modules only with a single command.

• We can run the build command from the parent module.

• While building the application, the build system takes care of the build order.

• Deployment of the applications gets very convenient and flexible.

• Also, the code from the various modules across different projects can be re-used.

• We can gain benefits from the microservices architecture.


Working of the Multi-Module Project
Working of the Multi-Module Project
• Firstly you have to create a Parent module.
• The parent module acts as a container of sub-modules.
• Also, you can use the Parent module for bootstrapping of the application ( main() method ).
• Alternatively, you can also use any of the sub-module by implementing the main() method for
bootstrapping the application and deleting the main() method from the parent module.
• Your Parent module should have ‘pom’ packaging instead of jar and war.
• When you create sub-modules, all of them get listed in the ‘<modules>’ tag in [Link] of the
parent module.
• All the dependencies you have enlisted in the [Link] of the parent module will be
automatically inherited by sub-modules directly.
• Therefore, you don’t need to add dependencies to sub-module’s [Link] to use them.
