  • Level : Intermediate
  • Technologies : Java EE 7 (JPA 2.1, CDI 1.1, Bean Validation 1.1, EJB Lite 3.2, JSF 2.2, JAX-RS 2.0), Twitter Bootstrap (Bootstrap 3.x, JQuery 2.x, PrimeFaces 6.x)
  • Application Servers : WildFly 10, WildFly Swarm
  • Summary : An e-commerce web application using Java EE 7 and MicroServices

Download the code from GitHub

Purpose of this application

This e-commerce web app allows you to buy CDs and Books.

The goals of this sample is to :

  • use Java EE 7 as back-end microservices
  • give a JSF web user interface (others might come, Angular 2?)
  • make it simple : no complex business algorithm, the point is to bring Java EE 7 technologies together to create an eCommerce website using MicroServices

The only external framework used are Arquillian, Twitter Bootstrap and PrimeFaces. Arquillian is used for integration testing. Using Maven profile, you can test services, injection, persistence... against different application servers. Twitter Bootstrap and PrimeFaces bring a bit of beauty to the web interface.

To fill up the database, I've used some Amazon Web Services. You will find the raw XML data in the xml directory with XSLT transformation (zipped so it's not too big).

Architecture

The application is divided in several modules:

  • The CD-Boostore is the main web app that allows you to buy CDs and Books. It invokes all the following REST services
  • Invoice is a REST service that creates invoices based on the user's shopping cart
  • TopBooks is a REST service that calculates the top selling books (JAX-RS + CDI + JSon-P + JPA + Bean Validation)
  • TopCDs is a REST service that calculates the top selling cds (JAX-RS + CDI + JSon-P)

Compile, test and package

Being Maven centric, you can compile and package it without tests using mvn clean compile -Dmaven.test.skip=true, mvn clean package -Dmaven.test.skip=true or mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true. Once you have your war file, you can deploy it.

Test with Arquillian

Launching tests under WildFly is straight forward. You only have to launch WidlFly and execute the tests using the Maven profile :

mvn clean test -Parquillian-wildfly-remote

Deploy and execute the application

War files in a single WildFly

Startup one instance of WildFly :

  • ./standalone.sh (ports 8080 / 9990)

War files in several WildFly

If you want to execute each application on different WildFly instances, just do :

  • ./standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml -Djboss.socket.binding.port-offset=2 (ports 8082 / 9992)
  • ./standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml -Djboss.socket.binding.port-offset=3 (ports 8083 / 9993)
  • ./standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml -Djboss.socket.binding.port-offset=5 (ports 8085 / 9995)

Execute the sample

Once deployed go to the following URL and start buying some books and cds: http://localhost:8080/webCDBookStore.

The admin REST interface allows you to create/update/remove items in the catalog, orders or customers. You can run the following curl commands :

  • curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/webCDBookStore/rest/books
  • curl -X http://localhost:8080/webCDBookStore/rest/cds

You can also get a JSON representation as follow :

  • curl -X GET -H "accept: application/json" http://localhost:8080/webCDBookStore/rest/books

Third Party Tools & Frameworks

Twitter Bootstrap

When, like me, you have no web designer skills at all and your web pages look ugly, you use Twitter Bootstrap ;o)

Silk Icons

Arquillian

Arquillian for the integration tests.
