How to configure Shiro with Spring Boot

Question

I have a Spring MVC web application that uses Shiro authentication using Spring configuration rather than a shiro.ini.

I want to transition to a Spring Boot application.

lenicliu gave great information, since I can't comment on his answer because I don't have enough reputation. I would like to add all the imports I had to make for his code to actually compile (maybe useful for noobies on Shiro, like me).

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.servlet.Filter;
import org.apache.shiro.realm.text.PropertiesRealm;
import org.apache.shiro.spring.LifecycleBeanPostProcessor;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.AnonymousFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.FormAuthenticationFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.LogoutFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.UserFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authz.RolesAuthorizationFilter;
import org.apache.shiro.web.mgt.DefaultWebSecurityManager;
import org.apache.shiro.web.mgt.WebSecurityManager;
