Context

I am working on a Spring Boot application (Spring Boot 3.3, Java 17) and want to add monitoring capabilities.

Task:

Configure the project to use Spring Boot Actuator and expose basic endpoints.

Constraints:

• Use Maven or Gradle for dependency management.

• The health and info endpoints must be exposed over the web.

• The metrics endpoint should NOT be exposed over the web.

• All actuator endpoints should be available under the path /management instead of the default /actuator.

Steps:

1. Add the spring-boot-starter-actuator dependency to the build file.

2. Modify the application.properties or application.yml file to:

   a. Change the base path for management endpoints to /management.

   b. Explicitly expose only the health and info endpoints.

3. Provide the curl commands to verify the endpoints after running the application.

Deliverables:

• The Maven/Gradle dependency XML/Groovy snippet.

• The required lines for application.properties.

• curl commands to test http://localhost:8080/management/health and http://localhost:8080/management/info.

• curl command to verify that http://localhost:8080/management/metrics returns a 404 Not Found.

Acceptance Criteria for your AI-generated code:

• The application compiles and runs with the new dependency.

• Accessing /management/health returns a JSON response with "status": "UP".

• Accessing /management/info returns an empty JSON object {}.

• Accessing /management/metrics returns a 404 HTTP status.
