Suppose you are tasked with creating a custom auto-configuration to integrate a proprietary library in a Spring Boot project. How would you approach designing and implementing this auto-configuration to ensure it is efficient and maintainable?

  • Leverage Spring Boot's @ConditionalOnClass and @ConditionalOnProperty annotations to conditionally enable the auto-configuration.
  • Create a single monolithic auto-configuration class that covers all aspects of the proprietary library integration.
  • Use the @Primary annotation to ensure your custom auto-configuration takes precedence over other configurations.
  • Add all the configuration details directly in the application.properties file to simplify the process.
Leveraging Spring Boot's conditional annotations allows you to enable your custom auto-configuration only when the required conditions are met, ensuring it's efficient and maintainable. The other options may lead to issues or reduced maintainability.
