Learning Spring Boot second edition

Excellent book by Greg L. Turnquist - no blabla, just stuff. Much better than the incredibly verbose and blablaistic Spring in Action.

Sample code here https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Learning-Spring-Boot-2.0-Second-Edition

You need MongoDB installed (IMHO better than using the embedded, I had issues)

https://www.mongodb.com/download-center?jmp=nav#community

download and install MongoDB community to D:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\bin.... data by default is in D:\data\db

cd D:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.0\bin
./mongod (it uses port 27017 by default)
./mongo
show dbs
show collections
db.chapter.find()

and possibly RabbitMQ:
