Spring Hateoas @EnableEntityLinks does not provide EntityLinks bean (NoSuchBeanDefinitionException)

I have a Spring Boot application that uses Spring HATEOAS, it has @EnableEntityLinks enabled. The application has a mvc-controller containing a field @Autowired EntityLinks entityLinks.

I expected that @EnableEntityLinks would provide the EntityLinks bean (according to: Exposing and Managing Links with Spring HATEOAS), but I get a NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.hateoas.EntityLinks] found

The application is a test application, so it is quite small:

Application.java:

@ComponentScan
@EnableAutoConfiguration
@EnableEntityLinks
public class Application {

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

CustomerController:

@Controller
@ExposesResourceFor(Customer.class)
@RequestMapping(value = "/customers", produces = "application/json")
public class CustomerController {

    @Autowired
    private EntityLinks entityLinks;

    @RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET)
    @ResponseBody
    public ResponseEntity<List<Customer>> customers() {
        return new ResponseEntity<List<Customer>>(HttpStatus.OK);
    }

    @RequestMapping(value="/{id}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
    @ResponseBody
    public ResponseEntity<Customer> customer(@PathVariable long id) {

        Customer customer = new Customer(id, "Testi");
        customer.add(this.entityLinks.linkToSingleResource(Customer.class, id));

        return new ResponseEntity<Customer>(customer, HttpStatus.OK);
    }       
}

Customer.java

public class Customer extends ResourceSupport {

    private Long id;
    private String firstName;

    public Customer(Long id, String firstName) {
        this.id = id;
        this.firstName = firstName;
    }   

    public String getFirstName() {
        return firstName;
    }

    public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
        this.firstName = firstName;
    }

}

Make sure anywhere in your code, poms or config files you do not have Autwire turned off or set to false (ex. annotation-config="false") This could very much cause an issue.

Also, double check any missing JARs/WARs/etc or missing annotations in any of your classes (ex. @EnableEntityLinks).
