How do configure liquibase-maven-plugin for spring-boot and hibernate

Question

I have very typical application stack: spring-boot:1.5.X, hibernate:5.X, maven and liquibase.

There is simple to configure liquibase with spring boot without adding some configuration files especially for liquibase.

But I would like to create liquibase changesets by hibernate entities. I think i can do it with liquibase-maven-plugin and liquibase-hibernate. Also i have read this article about integration spring boot and liquibase but additional liquibase.properties needed there.

My question is: how can i configure maven-liqubase plugin without adding some configuration file, if it possible, of course.

My config is

         <plugin>
            <groupId>org.liquibase</groupId>
            <artifactId>liquibase-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>${liquibase.version}</version>
            <configuration>
                <changeLogFile>src/main/resources/config/liquibase/master.xml</changeLogFile>
                <diffChangeLogFile>src/main/resources/config/liquibase/changelog/${maven.build.timestamp}_changelog.xml</diffChangeLogFile>
                <driver>org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver</driver>
                <url>jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/example</url>
                <defaultSchemaName>example</defaultSchemaName>
                <username>root</username>
                <password>root</password>
                <referenceUrl>hibernate:spring:com.example.domain?dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect&amp;hibernate.physical_naming_strategy=org.springframework.boot.orm.jpa.hibernate.SpringPhysicalNamingStrategy&amp;hibernate.implicit_naming_strategy=org.springframework.boot.orm.jpa.hibernate.SpringImplicitNamingStrategy</referenceUrl>
                <!-- <verbose>true</verbose> -->
                <!-- <logging>debug</logging> -->
            </configuration>

        </plugin>

which is fine for any mvn liquibase: command except mvn liquibase:diff which returns an error for me: [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.liquibase:liquibase-maven-plugin:3.6.2:diff (default-cli) on project example: Error setting up or running Liquibase: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: [PersistenceUnit: default] Unable to build Hibernate SessionFactory: The application must supply JDBC connections
