ExtWebComponents Java Backend Project Example

This is an simple example project featuring maven multi-module project architecture.

Project Manifest

sandbox-client

This module includes the ExtWebComponents project.

  • Note: The ./sandbox-client/build is the build folder.
  • Note: The ./sandbox-client/build is copied to ./sandbox-server/target/sandbox on each compile.

sandbox-server

This module includes the Java servlet container webapp.

  • Note: The build is compiled to ./sandbox-server/target/sandbox. This is the webapp folder.

IDE

Use IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate for the best debugging experience.

Note: You could use IntelliJ Community Edition, but you won't get full npm and Javascript feature integrations. Keep in mind you can run the server from a CE Jetty plugin and webpackdev from CLI.

Open Project

Open the project from the root.

Jetty

You'll have to download the Jetty Binaries, and stick them some where. So you can run the Jetty server.

Debug

The debugging will be covered using IntelliJ Ultimate Debugging. Although the same strategy could be done using terminal commands.

Prerequisites

  • IntelliJ Ultimate Jetty Plugin.
  • IntelliJ Ultimate npm Plugin.
  • Login and install client dependencies in the client module.

Client

Start the client webpack compiler.

Launch Run webpackdev in the IntelliJ launch menu.

Server

Start the Jetty server.

Launch Run Server in the IntelliJ launch menu.

Browser

The browser will be started. If it isn't navigate to http://localhost:8080/sandbox.

  • Note: Be sure to open dev tools and disable caching!
