This is backend example for the Marmelab's demo of the react-admin library for React.js. It creates a working administration for a fake poster shop named Posters Galore.

You can test it online at http:https://marmelab.com/react-admin-demo.

The backend inspired on the work of:

• zifnab87 on https://github.com/zifnab87/react-admin-demo-java-rest
• https://github.com/Nooul/spring-boot-rest-api-helpers

Work In Progress: Adapt Auth and Data providers to make use of Spring Boot Backend.

The following instructions describe how to build and deploy this example:

As a reference, I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL2 for this project.

Install MySQL:

sudo apt install mysql-server

Start MySQL with:

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start

And create the demo database and user required for this example to run:

CREATE DATABASE demo;
USE demo;
CREATE USER 'demo'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'demo';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'demo'@'%';
FLUSH privileges;

The backend properties can be configured on application.properties:

Use the property react-admin-api.use-snake-case = true if the front end is using the snake case convention for the field names, that is the case in this example.

The MySQL configuration for Hibernate in this case version 8 is also found on:

spring.jpa.hibernate.naming-strategy = org.hibernate.cfg.ImprovedNamingStrategy
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL8Dialect
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect.storage_engine=innodb 

The UI for swagger can be found on: swagger

Example:

The OpenAPI configuration is found on application.properties:

### Swagger / Open API
springdoc.api-docs.path=/v3/api-docs
springdoc.swagger-ui.path=/swagger-ui.html
springdoc.api-docs.enabled=true 

** Note: ** In case of issues with the browser hanging, use it in a incognito session. (It might be related to circular dependencies. )

The react-admin Front-End is available in the /frontend folder, you can compile it with:

yarn install

And start it with:

yarn start

The Spring Boot backend is available in the /backend folder, you can compile it and start it with:

mvn spring-boot:run

You will need to have git installed as well as Docker.

git clone https://github.com/danielsobrado/react-admin-spring-boot-backend
cd react-admin-spring-boot-backend
docker build -t react-admin-spring-boot-backend frontend

Start the Docker container by binding the front-end to an external port.

docker run -d --name=frontend -p 3000:3000 frontend
