NOTE: This is still a work in progress, we are looking for feedbacks from Java EE 7 experts.
For the demo, Celerio, a code generator, reverses this sample SQL schema and generate a full S-CRUD Java EE 7 web application.
S-CRUD means: Search, Create, Read, Update, Delete
The code generation templates that Celerio interprets to generate the demo web application are present in the following folder:
- pack-javaee7-backend.
- pack-javaee7-frontend.
- pack-javaee7-frontend-conversation - disabled by default
- pack-javaee7-wildfly.
You may edit the file celerio-template-packs.xml to choose between a conversation-based front end or a simpler front end version. By default, the simpler front end is enabled.
The generated application depends on the following library, which for convenience is part of the JavaEE Lab github project.
The generated application runs on WildFly 10, it is a pure Java EE 7 application, it relies on:
- JPA with Hibernate
- Search with Hibernate Search / Lucene
- JSF 2.2
- Primefaces 5.3 / Omnifaces 2.1
- Shiro for authentication
It also relies on house-made solution for:
- JSF conversation (depending on if you choose this front-end version or not)
- Java 8
- Maven 3.1.1
- Latest WildFly version (we currently use 10.0.0-CR4)
cd javaee7-jpa-query-by-example
mvn clean install
From wildfly distribution root folder, run:
./bin/standalone.sh
From this folder run:
cd demo
mvn -Pdb,metadata,gen generate-sources
From the demo folder:
mvn wildfly:undeploy <== if you deployed previously, undeploy it first
mvn wildfly:deploy
http://localhost:8080/demo
From the demo folder:
mvn -PcleanGen clean
You may contribute in several ways:
- By using the generated app and trying to find its limits
- By reviewing the generated code, is Java EE 7 properly used ?
- By trying to generate a project using your own database schema
You may of course report issues and/or submit pull requests.
- Cache does not seem to work (ehcache)
- LocalDate not supported by PrimeFaces p:calendar, even with our converter!
