#spring-boot-sample

A sample for spring-boot-application

Scaffold Maven project with spring-boot. Included BOWER configuration for AngularJS and Bootstrap. Just run the following command on the base folder of the application.

bower install

Proposed Exercise:

Write a set of REST services with two endpoints:

• GET service to retrieve the Greeting Message of the Day
• POST service to change the current Greeting Message.

Observations:

• The Greeting Message should be a Spring Bean.
• The Greeting Message could be stored on memory. It can be a Singleton.
• The application should be self-contained
• The application SHOULD NOT use WEB.XML or any spring XML configuration.

Challenge 1:

Use JERSEY instead of Spring Web

Challenge 2:

Write a set of JUNIT Tests to test the endpoints.

Challenge 3:

Write an Angular Application to show the current Greeting Message, and a form to change it. Bonus points if using IIFE. Extra-bonus points for using one-way binding when showing the Greeting Message.

##Install and Run

• You can run the following command in order to have the application self-contained and ready to be run as a jar file.

  mvn package
  

• After packaging you can run the jar file in order to launch the server (make sure the 8090 port is not busy before running it).

  java -jar target/greet-server.jar
  

• Then you can access the application through the URL: http://hostName:8090/ and play some greetings.

• You can also access the REST services directly through the URL http://hostName:8090/greet.

  Enjoy it =)
