I'm pretty bad with java and trying to get an older spring boot app moved into GCP. I have a proof of concept app working using spring-boot 3.0.1 and spring-cloud-gcp-starter-secretmanager@3.4.1. It runs fine and pulls secrets from Secret manager like a charm.
Pom snippet:
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
<relativePath/> <!-- lookup parent from repository -->
</parent>

<artifactId>secret-manager-poc</artifactId>

I'm trying to do the same thing in my older spring-boot app and getting really confused. Here is what I have for dependancies:
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>2.5.14</version>
<relativePath></relativePath>
</parent>
...
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-gcp-starter-secretmanager</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-starter</artifactId>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>2020.0.6</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
When I started loooking at what versions of the secretmanager starter I should use I came across this: https://spring.io/projects/spring-cloud Which makes it looks like I should used 2020.0.6 but then I've noticed that there are two groupIds org.springframework.cloud vs com.google.cloud, and I've been searching through posts and articles but I'm confused as hell. When I try run mvn clean install I get this message:
[ERROR] [ERROR] Some problems were encountered while processing the POMs:
[ERROR] 'dependencies.dependency.version' for org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-gcp-starter-secretmanager:jar is missing. @ line 158, column 15
Its complaining bout the version attribute being missing on the starter library, but all the docs I'm reading say that this should work.
mvn --version

Which dependencies and versions should someone use to connect to GCP secret manager from a springboot 2.5.14 app?
EDIT / UPDATE.
Currently able to start Spring boot with these dependancies with spring-boot 2.5.14:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-gcp-starter-secretmanager</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-bootstrap</artifactId>
<version>4.0.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-gcp-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>4.0.0</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
however my properties aren't being retreived from secret manager. I have this property file:
# General settings
api.version: @project.version@
# Akana settings
akana.secret.name=akana-shared-secret
akana.secret.hash=${sm://mde-akana-secret-hash}
...
But after spring-boot starts and I go to manage/env to print the env variables I see this:
"akana.secret.hash":{"value":"//mde-akana-secret-hash"}
all of the properties that are defined like this:
prop.name=${sm://sm-key}
are loaded into context like this:
prop.name=//sm-key
any idea what I'm missing?
