Rico: Http Sample Application

This sample shows how the HTTP client of Rico can be used.

Prerequisites

You need to have the following things installed:

• an Java SDK (tested with Java 8)

• Maven

How to run

First, you need to have everthing compiled, so please run mvn install in the root directory of this samples project.

Before starting any client at least 1 server must be started. Since the spring and the JavaEE server both use the same port you can not start both servers in parallel.

Start a Server

Spring

Go to the 'server-spring' subfolder and use maven to start the server:

mvn spring-boot:run

Java EE

To start the JavaEE server simply run mvn wildfly:run from the server-javaee folder.

Next to this the server can be deployed to any JavaEE 6 application server. To do so run mvn verify from the server-javaee folder. The created todo-app.war in the target folder can be deployed as JavaEE web application. In that case the application must be reachable under http://localhost:8080/simple-rest.

Start a client

Java

To start the JavaFX client simply run mvn jfx:run from the client-javafx folder. Next to this the client can be started by the dev.rico.samples.http.client.RestClient class.

JavaFx

To start the JavaFX client simply run mvn jfx:run from the client-javafx folder. Next to this the client can be started by the dev.rico.samples.http.client.RestClient class.
