Java EE 8 Application Development

JavaServer Faces

In this chapter, we will cover JavaServer Faces (JSF), the standard component framework of the Java EE platform. Java EE 8 includes JSF 2.3, the latest version of JSF. JSF relies a lot on convention over configuration—if we follow JSF conventions then we don't need to write a lot of configuration. In most cases, we don't need to write any configuration at all. This fact, combined with the fact that web.xml has been optional since Java EE 6, means that, in many cases, we can write complete web applications without having to write a single line of XML.

We will cover the following topics in this chapter:

  • Facelets
  • JSF project stages
  • Data validation
  • Named beans
  • Navigation
  • Ajax-enabling JSF applications
  • JSF HTML5 support
  • Faces flows
  • JSF artifact injection
  • JSF WebSocket support
  • JSF component libraries

Introducing JSF

JSF 2.0 introduced a number of enhancements to make JSF application development easier. In the following few sections, we will explore some of these features.

Readers not familiar with earlier versions of JSF may not understand the following few sections completely. Not to worry, everything will be perfectly clear by the end of this chapter.

Facelets

One notable difference between modern versions of JSF and earlier versions is that Facelets is now the preferred view technology. Earlier versions of JSF used Java Server Pages (JSP) as their default view technology. Since the JSP technology predates JSF, sometimes using JSP with JSF felt unnatural or created problems. For example, the JSP lifecycle is different...

Developing our first JSF application

To illustrate basic JSF concepts, we will develop a simple application consisting of two Facelet pages and a single CDI named bean.

Facelets

As we mentioned in this chapter's introduction, the default view technology for JSF 2.0 and newer versions is Facelets. Facelets need to be written using standard XML. The most popular way to develop Facelet pages is to use XHTML in conjunction with JSF-specific XML namespaces. The following example shows how a typical Facelet page looks:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?> 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" 
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd&quot...

Custom data validation

In addition to providing standard validators for our use, JSF allows us to create custom validators. This can be done in one of two ways—by creating a custom validator class or by adding validation methods to our named beans.

Creating custom validators

In addition to the standard validators, JSF allows us to create custom validators by creating a Java class implementing the javax.faces.validator.Validator interface.

The following class implements an email validator, which we will use to validate the email text input field in our customer data entry screen:

package net.ensode.glassfishbook.jsfcustomval; 
 
import javax.faces.application.FacesMessage; 
import javax.faces.component.UIComponent; ...

Ajax-enabling JSF applications

JSF allows us to easily implement Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) functionality into our web applications by simply employing the <f:ajax> tag and CDI named beans, without needing to implement any JavaScript code or having to parse JSON strings to implement Ajax with JSF.

The following illustrates a typical usage of the <f:ajax> tag:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?> 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
      xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" 
      xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"> 
  <h:head> 
    <title>JSF Ajax Demo</title> 
  </h:head> 
  <h:body> 
    <h2>JSF Ajax Demo</h2> 
    <h:form> 
      <h:messages/> 
      <h:panelGrid columns="2"> 
 
        <h:outputText value="Echo input:"/> 
        <h:inputText...

JSF HTML5 support

HTML5 is the latest version of the HTML specification and includes several improvements over the previous version of HTML. Modern versions of JSF include several features to make JSF pages work nicely with HTML5.

HTML5-friendly markup

Through the use of pass-through elements, we can develop our pages using HTML5 and also treat them as JSF components. To do this, we need to specify at least one element attributes using http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf namespace. The following example demonstrates this approach in action:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:jsf="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf">
    <head jsf:id="head">
        <title>JSF Page with HTML5 Markup</title>
        <link jsf:library="css" jsf:name="styles.css" rel="stylesheet"
         type="text/css" href="resources/css/styles.css"/>
    </head>
 <body jsf:id="body">
        <form jsf:prependId="false">
            <table style="border-spacing...

JSF 2.2 Faces flows

JSF 2.2 introduced Faces flows, which defines a scope that can span several pages. Flow scoped beans are created when the user enters a flow (a set of web pages), and are destroyed when the user leaves the flow.

Faces flows adopts the convention over configuration principle of JSF. The following conventions are typically used when developing applications employing faces flows:

  • All pages in the flow must be placed in a directory whose name defines the name of the flow
  • An XML configuration file named after the directory name, and suffixed with -flow, must exist inside the directory that contains the pages in the flow (the file may be empty, but it must exist)
  • The first page in the flow must be named after the directory name that contains the flow
  • The last page in the flow must not be located inside the directory containing the flow and must be named after the directory name and suffixed with -return

The following screenshot illustrates these conventions:

In the preceding example...

Injecting JSF artifacts

The JSF specification predates CDI. As such, many JSF artifacts, such as FacesContext and ExternalContext, had to be obtained via static entry methods; this resulted in hard-to-read boilerplate code. JSF 2.3 introduces the ability to inject JSF artifacts via CDI's @Inject annotation, as seen in the following example:

package net.ensode.javaee8book.jsfarbitrarymess; 
 
import java.io.Serializable; 
import javax.faces.application.FacesMessage; 
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext; 
import javax.faces.view.ViewScoped; 
import javax.inject.Inject; 
import javax.inject.Named; 
 
@Named 
@ViewScoped 
public class ArbitraryMessageController implements Serializable { 
 
    @Inject
    FacesContext facesContext; 
 
    public void saveData() { 
        FacesMessage facesMessage = new  
         FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, 
         "Data saved successfully", "All Data successfully  
          saved."); 
        facesContext.addMessage(null, facesMessage);...

JSF WebSocket support

In typical web applications, servers always respond to requests from a browser; there is no way for a server to send data to the client browser without responding to a request. WebSocket technology provides full duplex communication between a browser and a server, allowing servers to independently send data to a client, without having to respond to a request. WebSocket technology allows a myriad of new applications to be developed for the web, including updating stock tickers, multiplayer online games, and chat applications.

Note

Although some of these types of web applications were developed before the advent of WebSockets, they relied on hacks to work around the limitations of the HTTP protocol. With WebSockets, these hacks are no longer necessary.

Traditionally, writing applications taking advantage of the WebSocket protocol required a lot of JavaScript code. JSF 2.3 introduces WebSocket support and abstracts out most of the JavaScript plumbing, allowing us to focus...

Additional JSF component libraries

In addition to the standard JSF component libraries, there are a number of third-party JSF tag libraries available. The following table lists some of the most popular:

Summary

In this chapter, we covered how to develop web-based applications using JavaServer Faces, the standard component framework for the Java EE platform. We looked at how to write a simple application by creating pages using Facelets as the view technology and CDI named beans. We also covered how to validate user input by using JSF's standard validators, by creating our own custom validators or by writing validator methods. Additionally, we covered how to customize standard JSF error messages, both the message text and the message style (font, color, and such). Also, we covered how to develop Ajax-enabled JSF pages, as well as how to integrate JSF and HTML5.

With this book, you’ll get all the tools and techniques you need to build robust and scalable applications in Java EE 8. This book covers all the major Java EE 8 APIs including JSF 2.3, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 3.2, Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) 2.0, the Java API for WebSockets, JAX-RS 2.1, Servlet 4.0, and more. The book begins by introducing you to Java EE 8 application development and goes on to cover all the major Java EE 8 APIs. It goes beyond the basics to develop Java EE applications that can be deployed to any Java EE 8 compliant application server. It also introduces advanced topics such as JSON-P and JSON-B, the Java APIs for JSON processing, and the Java API for JSON binding. These topics dive deep, explaining how the two APIs (the Model API and the Streaming API) are used to process JSON data. Moving on, we cover additional Java EE APIs, such as the Java API for Websocket and the Java Message Service (JMS), which allows loosely coupled, asynchronous communication. Further on, you’ll discover ways to secure Java EE applications by taking advantage of the new Java EE Security API. Finally, you’ll learn more about the RESTful web service development using the latest JAX-RS 2.1 specification. You’ll also get to know techniques to develop cloud-ready microservices in Java EE.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
