Similar to @nayun oh answer above, but for older versions of Spring, use this code:

SpringApplication application = new SpringApplication(DemoApplication.class);
application.setApplicationContextClass(AnnotationConfigApplicationContext.class);
application.run(args);

Answer 2

The simplest solution. in your application.properties file. add the following property as mentioned by a previous answer:

spring.main.web-environment=false

For version 2.0.0 of Spring boot starter, use the following property :

spring.main.web-application-type=none

For documentation on all properties use this link : https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/common-application-properties.html

You can use the spring-boot-starter dependency. This will not have the web stuff.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
</dependency>
