Example project for grails4-primefaces plugin.
This plugin was written and tested with Grails 4.0.0.M2 and Java 8.0.202 (AdoptOpenJDK, HotSpot JVM)
Clone the plugin project.
Install the plugin:
cd grails4-primefaces
./gradlew install
Run this application:
cd grails4-primefaces-demo
./grailsw run-app
Once the application finishes loading, check the interface at: https://localhost:8080/faces/anagraphic/home.xhtml
Run this command:
./grailsw create-domain-class demo.Car
Populate the domain class at grails-app/domain/demo/Car.groovy:
package demo
class Car {
String carID
int year
String brand
String color
static constraints = {
}
}
The primefaces plugin adds a command to generate the managed bean and service for the domain class:
./grailsw run-command pf-generate-all demo.Car
The resulting files are:
- grails-app/services/demo/CarService.groovy
- src/main/groovy/demo/beans/CarLazyDataModel.groovy
- src/main/groovy/demo/beans/CarManagedBean.groovy
Add the new package "demo.beans" to the grails.plugins.primefaces.beans.packages list in grails-app/conf/application.yml
grails:
plugins:
primefaces:
beans:
packages: com.company.demo.beans,demo.beans
Optionally, add this line to the bottom of grails-app/conf/logback.groovy to enable debugging output:
logger('demo', DEBUG)
Add this code to grails-app/init/grails4/primefaces/demo/BootStrap.groovy
...
import demo.Car
import java.util.UUID
class BootStrap {
def init = { servletContext ->
... init already has code for Anagraphic. Add the code below at the end of the block ...
// initialize Car data
def colors = ['Black', 'White', 'Green', 'Red', 'Blue', 'Orange', 'Silver', 'Yellow', 'Brown', 'Maroon']
def brands = ['BMW', 'Mercedes', 'Volvo', 'Audi', 'Renault', 'Fiat', 'Volkswagen', 'Honda', 'Jaguar', 'Ford']
// enumerate all color and brand combinations
def combinations = [colors, brands].combinations()
Car.withTransaction {
combinations.each{ row ->
String color = row[0]
String brand = row[1]
// initialize a car entry
int newYear = (int) (Math.random() * 50 + 1960)
String newID = UUID.randomUUID().toString().substring(0, 8);
Car car = new Car (carID:newID, year:newYear, color:color, brand:brand)
car.save(flush:true, failOnError:true)
}
}
Car.withTransaction() {
log.info "Generated ${Car.count()} Car entries"
}
}
...
}
This code will run on startup and generate some Car objects to populate the datatables.
