Explore The Project

Let's explore the structure and content of your Spring Boot project for building an event ticket platform.

Project Structure

The project follows the standard Maven project structure with separate directories for source code, tests, and resources.

In the main source directory (src/main/java), we have:

• The main application class TicketsApplication.java under the com.devtiro.tickets package
• The @SpringBootApplication annotation marks this as our application's entry point
• The main method uses SpringApplication.run() to start our application

The resources directory (src/main/resources) contains:

• application.properties file for configuration settings
• We've removed the unused static and templates directories since we'll be using React for our frontend

Dependencies

Our pom.xml file includes key dependencies:

• Spring Boot starter dependencies for web, JPA, security, and OAuth2
• PostgreSQL for our production database
• H2 database for testing
• Lombok for reducing boilerplate code
• Testing dependencies including Spring Security Test

Configuration

The application.properties file contains settings for our application, currently only the application's name.

Testing Setup

The test directory (src/test/java) mirrors the main source structure and includes:

• A basic test class that verifies our Spring context loads correctly
• H2 database configuration for testing, preventing the need for PostgreSQL during tests

Summary

• Project uses standard Maven structure with Spring Boot configuration
• Main application class serves as the entry point with Spring Boot annotations
• Key dependencies include Spring Web, JPA, Security, and PostgreSQL
• H2 database configured for testing environment
