Spring Boot RESTful Web Services Versioning Example

Date: 2021-02-09

This tutorial demonstrates creating a RESTful API with versioning using the Accept Header technique in Spring Boot. It covers setting up a Spring Boot project with necessary dependencies (including Lombok, H2 database, and Springdoc OpenAPI), defining the API endpoints in a controller, and creating response classes to handle different media types. The application uses application.yml for configuration and leverages the @SpringBootApplication annotation. Versioning is implemented by specifying different Accept headers (e.g., application/vnd.jcg.app-1.0+json) to retrieve different versions of the response. The tutorial uses Postman or Swagger UI to test the API endpoints.
