spring-boot gradle plugin can't be found

Question

I have a separate gradle script that is just adding spring-boot plugin. It looks like this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        mavenCe         


        

Answer 1

Starting from SpringBoot 1.4.0.RELEASE the plugin package has been slightly changed.

apply plugin: org.springframework.boot.gradle.plugin.SpringBootPlugin
