# 20.5. 远程应用

Spring Boot开发者工具并不仅限于本地开发，在运行远程应用时你也可以使用一些特性。远程支持是可选的。启用远程支持，你需要确保开发者工具被包含在重新打包的归档文件中。

```
<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <configuration>
                <excludeDevtools>false</excludeDevtools>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>
```

之后，你需要通过设置`spring.devtools.remote.secret`属性启用它，例如：

```
spring.devtools.remote.secret=mysecret
```

**注** 在远程应用上启用`spring-boot-devtools`有一定的安全风险，生产环境中最好不要使用。

远程devtools支持分两部分：一个是接收连接的服务端端点，另一个是运行在IDE里的客户端应用。如果设置`spring.devtools.remote.secret`属性，服务端组件会自动启用，客户端组件必须手动启动。
