Run multiple web apps in one spring boot container

Question

I would like to be able to have multiple web apps sharing a domain project and running under different contextPaths.

By setting server.contextPath=/webshop in a spring boot app I dont need to prefix all the RequestMappings.

I would like the webshop, admin, and main page to share a common domain project which contains all the entities and common services.

Maybe with something like?

public static void main(String[] args) {
    new SpringApplicationBuilder(Domain.class)
        .showBanner(false)
        .child(Admin.class, Webshop.class)
        .run(args);
}

My problem is how do I start a spring boot app with a common domain model, and then a couple of stand alone web apps with unique contextPaths?

Answer 1

Like this for example:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    start(Admin.class, Webshop.class).run(args);
    start(Another.class).properties("server.port=${other.port:9000}").run(args);
}

private static SpringApplicationBuilder start(Class<?>... sources) {
    return new SpringApplicationBuilder(Domain.class)
        .showBanner(false)
        .child(sources);
}

It would start two apps on different ports.
