eXo Platform SEA - Play Framework Introduction
- 1. Vu Viet Phuong - PortalTeam Play Framework Introduction
- 2. Introduce key features of Play! framework Some great new ideas for Web Framework Objective
- 3. Play! Framework Introduction Subject Demo sample applications
- 5. Simple stateless MVC architecture No configuration: download, unpack and develop Integrated unit testing: JUnit and Selenium support is included in the core Elegant API: rarely will a developer need to import any third party library - Play comes with all the typical stuff built-in Major differences
- 6. Uses Java but tries to push all the good things from the frameworks based on scripting languages Get the best of the Java platform without getting the pain of traditional Java web development Advantage
- 7. Very good documented and easy to use product - JavaDoc
- 8. - User guide
- 9. - Sample apps Full-stack application framework Introduce a completely new way to develop web apps Advantage
- 10. Database support : JDBC, object-relational mapping using Hibernate (with the JPA API). Integrated cache support with easy use of the distributed memcached system if needed Straightforward web services consumption either in JSON or XML Full-stack application framework
- 11. OpenID support for distributed authentication Ready to be deployed anywhere (application server, Google App Engine, Cloud, etc…) Image manipulation API Full-stack application framework
- 12. Build and deployment is all handled by Python scripts Introduce a new way to develop web apps Fix the bug and hit Reload Lifting away the Java EE constraints Test framework Easy to use
- 13. The Java platform is infamous for its low productivity Repeated and tedious compile-package-deploy cycles Hot code reloading and display of errors in the browser
- 14. - Play will detect changes and automatically reload them at runtime
- 15. - Stack traces are stripped down and optimized to make it easier to solve problems Fix the bug and hit Reload
- 16. It is a very different thing to write a generic and reusable Java library and to create a web application
- 17. An easy-to-develop and elegant stack aimed at productivity Java itself is a very generic programming language and not originally designed for web application development Traditional Java web development:
- 18. Slow development cycle, too much abstraction, configuration... Lifting away the Java EE constraints
- 19. JBoss Netty for the web server Hibernate for the data layer Groovy for the template engine The Eclipse compiler for hot-reloading Apache Ivy for dependency management Popular Java libraries
- 20. The conf/ directory for the application The $PLAY_PATH/framework/play-$version.jar All JAR files found in your application’s lib/ directory All JAR files found in the $PLAY_PATH/framework/lib/ directory Classpath settings
- 21. Play provides a built-in test framework for unit testing and functional testing Tests are run directly in the browser By default all testing is done against the included H2 in-memory database Testing framework
- 22. Extensions http://www.playframework.org/modules Download and installation
- 24. ---> unpack, setup classpath ---> play! …. Some sample public websites Playapps.net, Zibbet Search, Masterbranch ... Resources
- 25. Demo
- 26. app/ - the application’s core, split between models, controllers and views directories
- 27. conf/ - application’s configuration files
- 28. lib/ - optional Java libraries
- 29. test/ - JUnit tests or as Selenium tests ~$ play new helloworld Project creation
- 30. Translating incoming HTTP Requests into action calls /conf/routes * /clients/{id} Clients.show ---> GET /clients/1541
- 31. ---> PUT /clients/abcd The default matching strategy /[^/]+/ User defined pattern /clients/{<[0-9]+>id} Router
- 32. Routes priority : first available GET /clients/all Clients.listAll
- 33. GET /clients/{id} Clients.show Serving static resources staticDir: mapping GET /public/ staticDir:public staticFile: mapping GET /home staticFile:/test.html Reverse routing: generate some URL map.put("id", 1541);
- 34. String url = Router.reverse("Clients.show", map).url; // GET /clients/1541 Router
- 35. Variables and scripts: GET ${context} Secure.login Setting content types -> determines which view template file GET /index.xml Application.index(format:'xml') GET /index.{format} Application.index Router
- 36. The last part of a route definition is the Java call A Controller should be defined in the controllers package and must be a subclass of Controller class The action method must be a public static void method Controller
- 37. Using the params map From the action method signature JPA object binding : loads the matching instance from the DB before editing it public static void save(User user) { user.save(); // ok with 1.0.1 } user.id = 1 &user.name=morten &user.address.id=34 &user.address.street=MyStreet Retrieving HTTP parameters
- 38. There is no equivalent to the Servlet API forward An HTTP request can only invoke one action Filter ~ Interceptions @Before @After @Catch @Finally Session and Flash scope Using the Cookie mechanism Compare to J2EE
- 39. If you have used Hibernate or JPA before you will be surprised by the simplicity added by Play CRUD module help quickly generate a basic administration area Secure, validation framework, JSON and XML parsers, OpenID support, full embedded testing framework … Make life easier
- 40. Unit test A unit test is written using JUnit Functional test Accessing directly the controller objects Selenium test Running it in an automated browser Test your application
