SpringBoot multiple module Consider defining a bean of type in your configuration

I have a multiple modules Spring-boot application, I have two submodules:

that are organized like this:

persistence module

         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

</project>

In my rest-api module, I want to scan both modules (persistence and restapi) and I proceed like this:

@SpringBootApplication
@ComponentScan ({"com.medkhelifi.tutorials.springboot", "com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence"})
public class RestTodoListApplication  {
    @Autowired
    private UserRepository userRepository;

    public static void main (String[] args){
        SpringApplication.run(RestTodoListApplication.class, args);
    }
}

But I got this error :

Field userRepository in com.medkhelifi.tutorials.springboot.restapi.todolist.RestTodoListApplication required a bean of type 'com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence.model.repositories.UserRepository' that could not be found.

Action:

Consider defining a bean of type 'com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence.model.repositories.UserRepository' in your configuration.

If I remove "com.medkhelifi.tutorials.spring-boot" from ComponentScan the error disappear but my controllers under my restapi module will not work.

I tried many variations of ComponentScan, but with the same error:

@ComponentScan ({"com.medkhelifi.tutorials"})
@ComponentScan ({"com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence", "com.medkhelifi.tutorials.springboot"})

I think I found the solution, I added @EnableMongoRepositories to scan my persistence module:

@EnableMongoRepositories(basePackages = "com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence")

Your Auto wiring Happening in Main Application class which you have not provided as base package for component scanning. Try this

@ComponentScans(value = { @ComponentScan("com.medkhelifi.tutorials"),
        @ComponentScan("com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence"), @ComponentScan("com.medkhelifi.tutorials.restapi") })

OR

@ComponentScan(value = {"com.medkhelifi.tutorials",
        "com.medkhelifi.tutorials.persistence", "com.medkhelifi.tutorials.restapi" })

Spring is trying to look for the Autowired dependency but it's not finding it anywhere.

Try adding this:

@EnableJpaRepositories({"com.medkhelifi.WhereverYourRepoIs"})

If I'm not mistaken you need to tell SpringBoot where to find your repos, specially if they are in a different module than your @SpringBootApplication.
