Spring Boot MapStruct Example

Date: 2021-07-20

This tutorial demonstrates MapStruct, an annotation-based code generator, within a Spring Boot application. It simplifies mapping between Java beans, offering fast, type-safe, and easily understood code generation. The example uses MapStruct to map between Entities and Data Transfer Objects (DTOs), showcasing its use in a multi-tiered application. The tutorial covers setting up dependencies (including Spring Boot, H2 database, Lombok, and MapStruct) and creating the necessary Java classes (Mapper, Controller, etc.). A step-by-step guide details building and running the application, along with testing using Postman. The complete project is available for download.
