Spring Boot Windows Service Example

This is an example of a Spring Boot application that can be deployed as a Windows service. It is based on the code from https://github.com/snicoll-scratches/spring-boot-daemon.

Usage

The dist folder holds the JAR file built from the code at https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/SpringBootStopper along with the winsw executable and configuration from https://github.com/kohsuke/winsw, and the Spring Boot JAR compiled from this project.

To install the Spring Boot JAR as a service, run:

SpringBoot.exe install

To remove the service, run:
