Lesson 9: Developing Web Applications (Resources)

Introduction

Takes a popular TODO tutorial and serves it from Spring Boot.

Building and running the sample

Use the following commands to build run the application:

$ mvn clean package
$ java -jar target/livelessons-web-resources-angular-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Understanding the code

Angular and Bootstrap are served from WebJars and the application JavaScript source is contained in src/main/resources/static.

This example also shows how you can call a rest service from Angular. This is fairly typical in a microservice where the rich web application calls a REST edge service which ultimately coordinates different microservices. In this example we just call a dummy endpoint which has been mocked up in the ToDoController class.
