Spring data JPA WITHOUT an entire Spring Boot application

I am creating an internal CLI that is communicating with a PostgreSQL database and the easiness to create a no-code repository is one of the features that convince me to choose Spring data JPA.
However, I am not able to find some tutorial or GitHub repository to set up a Spring data JPA project without an entire spring boot application.
On the project https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-book/tree/master/jpa there is no main entry point, so the code is not runnable and by the way, it was updated 8 years ago ...
This other StackOverflow thread Spring Data JPA without Spring Boot does not help me because the guy could run his spring application on Google Cloud Platform finally (that was the cause of why he ask how to setup sping data jpa without spring boot).
I don't know how to start, if you have any ideas I will be happy to discuss with someone who is more experienced than me.
Thank you.

This might help if no more complete tutorial turns up https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/jpa/docs/1.5.0.RELEASE/reference/html/repositories.html
Look for this section
Standalone usage
You can also use the repository infrastructure outside of a Spring container, e.g. in CDI environments. You still need some Spring libraries in your classpath, but generally you can set up repositories programmatically as well. The Spring Data modules that provide repository support ship a persistence technology-specific RepositoryFactory that you can use as follows
In particular it says you can use a factory to generate repositories:
RepositoryFactorySupport factory = … // Instantiate factory here
UserRepository repository = factory.getRepository(UserRepository.class);
So adding the spring parts that contain the spring data classes may be enough for this level and if you want to have DI, too, you likely need to combine them with the respective spring dependencies and configure a regular spring application.

Using Jersey and Spring in a Project

I want to create a REST web service using Jersey. I also want to use Spring in the project. Now, my questions is the following:
I don't see any reason for integrating these 2 together in my application. So, I should be able to use Spring for bean management and Jersey for creating the web service. Am I correct, or Spring and Jersey somehow have to be integrated.
I see that there is a jersey-spring maven project, and so, I assume that this is for the purpose of integrating jersey and spring together. My question here is do I get any benefit of using this integrated form rather than simply use Jersey and Spring separately each for its own functionality?
Thanks,
Cyrus

You can absolutely combine the two projects. However, I would encourage you to look at Spring-MVC for doing REST as it is very powerful and easy to use. If memory serves, the jersey-spring project was helpful in integration of JAXB and other touch points. Again, this is all built into Spring. And if you use Spring-Boot it is amazingly simple to get running.

The jersey-spring project provides integration between Jersey and Spring. It allows you to wire in any beans in your Spring context into Jersey and vice-versa.
For instance, if you are using spring-security, it will provide your spring-security principal when wiring the Jersey specific SecurityContext into any of your REST resources.

If you want to access Spring beans from your Jersey REST endpoints (or use Spring Beans as implementations for your JAX-RS interfaces) you need to integrate Spring and Jersey, otherwise it won't work. If you don't have any connections between Spring beans and your REST endpoints, then it is not necessary.

I think your first statement is correct. I have used Jersey and Sprint as separate entities.
Jersey is really awesome to create a web server.
Spring is useful for dependency injection (beans) and other cools stuff.
About your second statement, I do not know anything jersey-spring maven project.
My suggestion/opinion is to do as your first comment. Use them in a separate way. You will have the best of both worlds. Using jersey-spring maven project might be a complication and maybe it is not what you want. Libraries usually are intend to be independent.

Is it possible to add spring MVC (with embedded Jetty) to a spring integration component

I have examples of both working individually, now trying to merge so that I have both capabilities / entry points.
Not surpised it is confused about the application contexts to load.
I want to know if this is even possible and if so any examples?
I know it is doable with spring boot however not wanting to move to that just yet.
I am attempting the impossible?

"Spring MVC (with embedded Jetty)" usually means an HTTP endpoint running in its own JVM (I suppose you have a main method that starts Jetty). Once you have that started, you can integrate it as any other HTTP endpoint in Spring Integration.
If you want them both to run in the same JVM, that probably means you don't want to make use of HTTP as you can invoke methods directly on your #Controllers or #Services.
Or perhaps I'm missing something here... ?

I'd go for Spring Boot. Version 1.1.6 was just released. I'm currently also migrating an "old" SI application to be based upon Spring Boot. I suggest you give http://start.spring.io a try. Migration should not be too difficult.

Using spring core functionalities in tomcat based jersey application

I want to use spring's dependency injection for now(other core functionalites later maybe) in tomcat application.
I want to set up spring 2.5.5 in tomcat7, But don't have clarity on how to do this.
Specifically I am confused because I don't know whether to use Spring MVC or use just spring in tomcat.
I found this question helpful: Tomcat with Spring, But still didn't get the whole scenario on how to setup tomcat with spring.

You can do either, using just core spring with tomcat is fine. MVC provides additional functionality.
Take a look at the spring source examples on github, and read their docs.
(BTW I thouroughy spring-MVC component - it really saves time developing webapps)

JSF 1.2 + Spring 2.5. How to?

I am using Spring to manage my DAO & Services. And JSF for UI. I want to use dependency injection in my JSF backing-bean. There is an article that explained how I can do that.
But I have two separate projects: one for Service and one for UI. The Spring configuration file is located in Service project.
How can I connect both project with Spring? I want to annotate my JSF pages for DI.

You can achieve this by using Spring Web Flow.
Spring have examples which show:
A JSF centric approach where your Spring and JSF beans are managed/configured the JSF way (faces-config) and a
Spring centric approach where your beans (including ManagedBeans) are managed in the Spring Context.
See Spring Flow Web Home

If you mean that you have one WAR with web services defined in it, and another separate WAR with the JSF stuff, I think it's really two separate projects each with their own Spring configuration.
The web service WAR will use either Spring web services or perhaps HTTP remoting to expose your service interfaces to clients via HTTP. This will have one set of application context configuration, either XML or annotations.
The JSF WAR will have the JSPs and controllers. The controllers will be injected with clients that will interact with the remote services to accomplish what you wish. That's all they need to know about the service WAR. There doesn't need to be any duplication of configuration at all.
It's actually a nice design, because it completely decouples the view from the rest of the problem.

Thank for everyone I did it. My mistake was with bean initialization. I tried to access my injected bean in constructor, but must must did in #PostConstruct method. And all that time i tried to find mistake in my config file. But it was in such simply place :)

I find some solution one:
Sample Application using JSF, Spring 2.5, and Java Persistence APIs with Glassfish v2
. But I have problem with it.
I can post this problem hear or must create new topic? Sorry for stupid question, i'm newbie her.
