Is there a tool to generate Spring application context dependency diagram/graph?

Another tool you may want to look into: https://github.com/aigor/spring-beans-visualized

It purely works on a running ApplicationContext and does not do a static analysis. It does need Spring-Boot though to work.


IntelliJ IDEA's Ultimate Edition can generate a Spring dependency graph. Basically, right click on the file name and select Diagrams -> Show Diagram. This web page provides the details.


The Spring IDE + Eclipse or the Spring Source Tool Suite can generate simple graphs of your dependencies.

To do that open the view called "Spring Explorer" and choose your project. Then click right mouse -> Properties and combine some/all of your context files into a "Config Set". After saving you can right click on it in the Spring Explorer and choose "Open dependency graph".

The graph is static and quite untidy, but this might help.
