Description

JHipster is a development platform to generate, develop, and deploy Spring Boot and Angular/React applications and Spring microservices. It provides you with a variety of tools that will help you quickly build modern web applications. This book will be your guide to building full stack applications with Spring and Angular using the JHipster tool set. You will begin by understanding what JHipster is and the various tools and technologies associated with it. You will learn the essentials of a full stack developer before getting hands-on and building a monolithic web application with JHipster. From here you will learn the JHipster Domain Language with entity modeling and entity creation using JDL and JDL studio. Moving on, you will be introduced to client side technologies such as Angular and Bootstrap and will delve into technologies such as Spring Security, Spring MVC, and Spring Data. You will learn to build and package apps for production with various deployment options such as Heroku and more. During the course of the book, you will be introduced to microservice server-side technologies and how to break your monolithic application with a database of your choice. Next, the book takes you through cloud deployment with microservices on Docker and Kubernetes. Going forward, you will learn to build your client side with React and master JHipster best practices. By the end of the book, you will be able to leverage the power of the best tools available to build modern web applications.

IntroductionThe world has had microservices madness for quite a while now. If you were put into a time capsule in 2010, at the height of Java EE, and suddenly woke up in 2018, you would probably feel overwhelmed by how the software architecture landscape has changed.Everything nowadays is about microservice-style development and operations (DevOps — fun fact, the word was coined one year before you were placed in your capsule). Many mission-critical applications run "in the cloud" and bear no resemblance to the good old days of the monoliths and huge monsters you used to build. Now there are terms like containers, orchestration, and "Eventual Consistency." The world is a very different place indeed.Enter JHipster. It is a development platform. It is many things, among them a Yeoman Code Generator. It is a "way of thinking" that takes Spring Boot's motto of "convention over configuration." It is a wizard-style console set of tools that, once you provide answers to some basic questions, proceeds to generate the scaffolding of your application, ready for you to focus on what matters most: your secret sauce, your business logic, your data model.Even though JHipster is going to generate code for you, it doesn't force you into the world of microservices; you can start with a monolithic approach and then start slicing and dicing into a microservice if you so choose.If the last two paragraphs did not fully paint the picture as to what JHipster is or what it can do for you, that's why this book is needed. JHipster comes with the potential of saving you a lot of time; but like every fancy tool, it requires an understanding of what the tool is capable as well as having some basic concepts.Book ReviewThe two authors are leaders in the JHipster community. Deepu Sasidharan is a co-lead of JHipster, he was part of the initial team. Sendil Kumar is a core contributor and an open source enthusiast.The authors begin with an introduction to modern web application development, with a quick refresher of terms, such as frontend and backend then promptly moving to architectural patterns and empowering you to choose which pattern is best for your app. Believe it or not, the authors don't have an agenda. They are not monolith haters. As a matter of fact, the first part of the book is them explaining how JHipster can help you (expedite) your journey toward that pattern in your app.Right after, you're moved into a crash course of the different technologies available for you to choose to use on your web app; some names include Bootstrap, Angular, React, testing tools such as Karma. Then you move to the backend with Spring, Hibernate, etc. The idea here is mainly for you to have a very basic idea of what each technology (framework) means and is capable of doing.Then you move to the different database options, divided into SQL based and non-SQL. This is particularly useful for you if you have been confined to SQL only.After this, you're ready to get your hands dirty and start wielding the power of JHipster. Your first assignment is to create a monolithic application. You're guided through the wizard-style navigation of the JHipster console.JHipster Domain LanguageNow you're ready to start using some of the more powerful aspects of JHipster. Specifically, the JHipster Domain Language (JDL) is a powerful tool for generating and maintaining the code that represents your data model and the relationship between entities. The generator takes care of DTOs on the back and frontend. Then you step it up a notch with JDL studio, an online IDE that makes the process even easier.Testing, Continuous IntegrationNow is time to plug in your application into the world of Continuous Integration. You'll explore JHipster's ability to feed onto Jenkins and other tools alike.To the Cloud and BeyondNow it's time to start thinking on slicing that monolith of yours and transition onto a more distributed approach based on microservices. You start with Docker, the Docker hub. Then you learn that JHipster can also help you with the final stage of your cycle: deployment. It can help you deploy to AWS, Cloud Foundry, Heroku, etc.Lastly, you will get more into the weeds of running a microservice environment, you'll learn about how JHipster can help with orchestration, service discovery, health tracking. This part gets very detailed, which is good because the microservice landscape is wide. This is another tour de force in terms of the number of new technologies to which you'll be exposed. Don't worry you don't linger too long at each; the idea is just to have a broad picture of how the landscape looks. Then you can hone down particular spots of the landscape you want to explore.ConclusionThe tour ends with a section on best practices as well as next steps. Throughout your journey, the book remains relevant and its cadence is enjoyable. At the end you'll feel like you are caught up, at least to get started after your time capsule journey; all those years from 2010 to 2018. You're up to date, or at least have a very good pulse of how things changed.

JHipster is a great set of tools to facilitate and speed up application development when working with Spring Boot, Angular, and various other technologies. It is supported by an active open-source community and has extensive and detailed documentation. While the documentation is a good place to start, this book takes it to the next level by presenting real-world issues, providing practical advice on development standards, and diving farther into every aspect of JHipster. It is also extremely easy to read and follow along. I often recommend it to various clients we work with as it helps new developers understand the concepts and be productive as soon as possible.
