SpringBoot 使用Thymeleaf模板引擎

首先引入Thymeleaf的jar包

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
   <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf</artifactId>
</dependency>

这样应该就可以使用了，使用的版本号是默认的。如果你想使用其他的版本号就要使用锁定版本号

<properties>
  <thymeleaf.version>3.0.9.RELEASE</thymeleaf.version>
  <!-- 布局功能的支持程序  thymeleaf3主程序 对应 layout2以上版本 -->        
  <!-- thymeleaf2 对应 layout1版本 -->     
  <thymeleaf-layout-dialect.version>2.3.0</thymeleaf-layout-dialect.version>
</properties>

就在锁定版本的时候出现了这个错误

***************************
APPLICATION FAILED TO START
***************************
Description:
An attempt was made to call the method org.thymeleaf.spring5.SpringTemplateEngine.setRenderHiddenMarkersBeforeCheckboxes(Z)V but it does not exist. Its class, org.thymeleaf.spring5.SpringTemplateEngine, is available from the following locations:
    jar:file:/D:/OpenSources/MyRepository/org/thymeleaf/thymeleaf-spring5/3.0.9.RELEASE/thymeleaf-spring5-3.0.9.RELEASE.jar!/org/thymeleaf/spring5/SpringTemplateEngine.class
It was loaded from the following location:
    file:/D:/OpenSources/MyRepository/org/thymeleaf/thymeleaf-spring5/3.0.9.RELEASE/thymeleaf-spring5-3.0.9.RELEASE.jar
Action:
Correct the classpath of your application so that it contains a single, compatible version of org.thymeleaf.spring5.SpringTemplateEngine

解决方案

<properties>
    <springboot-thymeleaf.version>3.0.9.RELEASE</springboot-thymeleaf.version>
    <thymeleaf-layout-dialect.version>2.3.0</thymeleaf-layout-dialect.version>
</properties>

这里用的是org.springframework.boot下的spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf,使用<thymeleaf.version>做标签时可能与org.thymeleaf有冲突，导致包获取不正确

最后有个小问题，使用Thymeleaf有什么作用？欢迎回答。
