Spring Boot Configuration Processor is a tool that generates metadata for the configuration properties defined in a Spring Boot application. It helps in providing better documentation and auto-completion features for configuration properties in IDEs like Eclipse and IntelliJ.
When a Spring Boot application is compiled, the Configuration Processor scans the application and generates metadata in the form of a JSON file. This metadata contains information about the configuration properties defined in the application, such as their name, description, default value, and data type.
This metadata can be used by IDEs to provide auto-completion and validation features for configuration properties. For example, if a user starts typing a property name in an IDE, the IDE can show a list of available properties and their descriptions, making it easier for the user to select the correct property.
The Configuration Processor is included in the Spring Boot Starter parent POM, so it is automatically activated when building a Spring Boot application. It can also be explicitly enabled or disabled using configuration properties in the application.properties or application.yml file.
