== Dependency Management

### Spring Cloud Alibaba Bill of Materials (BOM)

If you’re a Maven Central user, add our BOM to your pom.xml <dependencyManagement> section. This will allow you to omit versions for any of the Maven dependencies and instead delegate versioning to the BOM.

```xml
<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.alibaba.cloud</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-cloud-alibaba-dependencies</artifactId>
            <version>2.1.0.RELEASE</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
```

### Spring Snapshots Maven Repository

If you want to use the latest BUILD-SNAPSHOT version, add Spring Snapshot Repository in pom.xml , Attention: BUILD-SNAPSHOT may be updated in any time:

```xml
<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>spring-snapshots</id>
        <name>Spring SnapShots</name>
        <url>https://repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot</url>
        <snapshots>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
        </snapshots>
    </repository>
</repositories>
```

For example, the 0.2.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT is available from this repository.
