This version is still in development and is not considered stable yet. For the latest snapshot version, please use Spring AI 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT!spring-doc.cn

Getting Started

This section offers jumping off points for how to get started using Spring AI.spring-doc.cn

You should follow the steps in each of the following sections according to your needs.spring-doc.cn

Spring AI supports Spring Boot 3.4.x. When Spring Boot 3.5.x is released, we will support that as well.

Spring Initializr

Head on over to start.spring.io and select the AI Models and Vector Stores that you want to use in your new applications.spring-doc.cn

Artifact Repositories

Milestones - Use Maven Central

As of 1.0.0-M6, releases are available in Maven Central. No changes to your build file are required.spring-doc.cn

Snapshots - Add Snapshot Repositories

To use the Snapshot (and pre 1.0.0-M6 milestone) versions, you need to add the following snapshot repositories in your build file.spring-doc.cn

Add the following repository definitions to your Maven or Gradle build file:spring-doc.cn

Maven

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>spring-snapshots</id>
    <name>Spring Snapshots</name>
    <url>https://repo.spring.io/snapshot</url>
    <releases>
      <enabled>false</enabled>
    </releases>
  </repository>
  <repository>
    <name>Central Portal Snapshots</name>
    <id>central-portal-snapshots</id>
    <url>https://central.sonatype.com/repository/maven-snapshots/</url>
    <releases>
      <enabled>false</enabled>
    </releases>
    <snapshots>
      <enabled>true</enabled>
    </snapshots>
  </repository>
</repositories>

Gradle

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
  maven { url 'https://repo.spring.io/milestone' }
  maven { url 'https://repo.spring.io/snapshot' }
  maven {
    name = 'Central Portal Snapshots'
    url = 'https://central.sonatype.com/repository/maven-snapshots/'
  }
}

NOTE: When using Maven with Spring AI snapshots, pay attention to your Maven mirror configuration. If you have configured a mirror in your settings.xml like this:spring-doc.cn

<mirror>
    <id>my-mirror</id>
    <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
    <url>https://my-company-repository.com/maven</url>
</mirror>

The wildcard * will redirect all repository requests to your mirror, preventing access to Spring snapshot repositories. To fix this, modify the mirrorOf configuration to exclude Spring repositories:spring-doc.cn

<mirror>
    <id>my-mirror</id>
    <mirrorOf>*,!spring-snapshots,!central-portal-snapshots</mirrorOf>
    <url>https://my-company-repository.com/maven</url>
</mirror>

This configuration allows Maven to access Spring snapshot repositories directly while still using your mirror for other dependencies.spring-doc.cn

Dependency Management

The Spring AI Bill of Materials (BOM) declares the recommended versions of all the dependencies used by a given release of Spring AI. Using the BOM from your application’s build script avoids the need for you to specify and maintain the dependency versions yourself. Instead, the version of the BOM you’re using determines the utilized dependency versions. It also ensures that you’re using supported and tested versions of the dependencies by default, unless you choose to override them.spring-doc.cn

Add the BOM to your project:spring-doc.cn

Mavenspring-doc.cn
Gradlespring-doc.cn

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.ai</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-ai-bom</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

dependencies {
  implementation platform("org.springframework.ai:spring-ai-bom:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT")
  // Replace the following with the starter dependencies of specific modules you wish to use
  implementation 'org.springframework.ai:spring-ai-openai'
}

Gradle users can also use the Spring AI BOM by leveraging Gradle (5.0+) native support for declaring dependency constraints using a Maven BOM. This is implemented by adding a 'platform' dependency handler method to the dependencies section of your Gradle build script. As shown in the snippet below this can then be followed by version-less declarations of the Starter Dependencies for the one or more spring-ai modules you wish to use, e.g. spring-ai-openai.spring-doc.cn

Add dependencies for specific components

Each of the following sections in the documentation shows which dependencies you need to add to your project build system.spring-doc.cn
