# Set up your Development Environment

Create a Spring Boot Application using Spring Initializr and assign Spring Web, Lombok, Spring data JPA, H2 Database.

```gradle
  implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa'
  implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
  compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
  runtimeOnly 'com.h2database:h2'
  annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
  testImplementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
  annotationProcessor 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-configuration-processor'
```

Then add your Evento Framework Bundle Dependency and follow the [Quick Start](/getting-started/quick-start.md) section to set up an Evento Server Instance.

```gradle
implementation group: 'com.eventoframework', name: 'evento-bundle', version: '2.0.0'
```

### Evento Config

Instantiate the Evento Bundle Object as a Bean

```java
import com.eventoframework.demo.todo.TodoApplication;
import com.evento.application.EventoBundle;
import com.evento.application.bus.ClusterNodeAddress;
import com.evento.application.bus.EventoServerMessageBusConfiguration;
import com.evento.application.performance.TracingAgent;
import com.evento.common.modeling.messaging.message.application.Message;
import com.evento.common.modeling.messaging.message.application.Metadata;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanFactory;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;

@Configuration
public class EventoConfig {

    @Bean
    public EventoBundle eventoBundle(BeanFactory factory) throws Exception {
        String bundleId = "ToDoList-Bundle";
        int bundleVersion = 1;
        var evento =  EventoBundle.Builder.builder()
                // Starting Package to detect RECQ components
                .setBasePackage(TodoApplication.class.getPackage())
                // Name of the bundle
                .setBundleId(bundleId)
                // Bundle's version
                .setBundleVersion(bundleVersion)
                // Set up the Evento message bus
                .setEventoServerMessageBusConfiguration(new EventoServerMessageBusConfiguration(
                        // Evento Server Addresses
                        new ClusterNodeAddress("localhost",3030)
                ))
                .setTracingAgent(new TracingAgent(bundleId, bundleVersion){
                    @Override
                    public Metadata correlate(Metadata metadata, Message<?> handledMessage) {
                        if(handledMessage!=null && handledMessage.getMetadata() != null && handledMessage.getMetadata().get("user") != null){
                            if(metadata == null) return handledMessage.getMetadata();
                            metadata.put("user", handledMessage.getMetadata().get("user"));
                            return metadata;
                        }
                        return super.correlate(metadata, handledMessage);
                    }})
                .setInjector(factory::getBean)
                .start();
        evento.getPerformanceService().setPerformanceRate(1);
        return evento;
    }
}
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.eventoframework.com/getting-started/todolist-recq-tutorial/set-up-your-development-environment.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
