FeignClient in spring boot 2

Question

I am trying to migrate from spring boot 1.5 tio 2.0 and faced problem: I changed version of spring-cloud-netflix-core from 1.3.4.RELEASE to 2.0.1.R

Answer 1

You need to import feign as an independent dependency starting from 2.X release:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-openfeign</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.1.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

Answer 2

Since the 2.x release Spring Cloud moved the netflix feign classes to their own project.

https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-openfeign

You need to update your re-import with the correct package

org.springframework.cloud.openfeign
