So I've been learning Spring in the couples of week, been following this tutorial

All was well until I tried to integrate it to mongodb. So I follow this tutorial.

But my practice is partially still using the first one. So my project directory structure is like this.

src/
├── main/
│   └── java/
|       ├── model/
|       |   └── User.java
|       ├── rest/
|       |   ├── Application.java
|       |   ├── IndexController.java
|       |   └── UsersController.java
|       └── service/
|           └── UserService.java
└── resources/
    └── application.properties

This is my model/User.java file

package main.java.model;

import org.springframework.data.annotation.Id;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document;

@Document(collection="user")
public class User {

    private int age;
    private String country; 
    @Id
    private String id;
    private String name;


    public User() {
        super();
    }

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public int getAge() {
        return age;
    }

    public void setAge(int age) {
        this.age = age;
    }

    public String getCountry() {
        return country;
    }

    public void setCountry(String country) {
        this.country = country;
    }
}

This is my rest/UsersController.java file

package main.java.rest;

import java.util.List;
import main.java.service.UserService;
import main.java.model.User;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestParam;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

@RestController
@RequestMapping(value = "/users")
public class UsersController {

    @Autowired
    UserService userService;

    @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public List<User> getAllUsers() {
        return userService.findAll();
    }
}

This is my service/UserService.java file

package main.java.service;

import java.util.List;
import main.java.model.User;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.MongoRepository;

public interface UserService extends MongoRepository<User, String> {
    public List<User> findAll();
}

I could compile them (I'm using gradle for compilation because I'm following the tutorial), but when I run the jar file it was throwing this error.

APPLICATION FAILED TO START Description: Field userService in main.java.rest.UsersController required a bean of type 'main.java.service.UserService' that could not be found. Action: Consider defining a bean of type 'main.java.service.UserService' in your configuration.

Not sure what is wrong I start googling around and found that I need to include Beans.xml file and register the userService in it. I did that but it's not working. I'm really new to this so I really have no clue on what's going on.
