The recommended way to get started using Spring Cloud Open Service Broker in your project is with a dependency management system. One of the snippets below can be copied and pasted into your build.

With Maven:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-open-service-broker-webmvc</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.0.RELEASE</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

With Gradle:

dependencies {
    compile 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-open-service-broker-webmvc:2.0.0.RELEASE'
}

Looking toward the future, we have already begun work on 3.0. The next major release will focus on full reactive support through the utilization of project Reactor. This will also facilitate the support of Spring WebFlux in addition to the current Spring MVC support. You may expect the first milestone of the 3.0 line this Summer. We’re also considering the inclusion of an Open Service Broker client library. Your feedback is always appreciated. Stay tuned for more updates!
