Walking skeleton of Angular 2 + SpringBoot

Introduction

This repo serves as a walking skeleton for a single gradle project containing a frontend with its backend. Just so you can get kickstarted in setting up a similar project, and don't have to mess about too much.

It contains a jenkinsfile so you can create a Jenkins 2 pipeline job to get CI running.

This will build both UI and backend projects and package test run results from both JUnit and Karma.

Deliverables

On successful build, you'll have one ng2boot-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.ear file, containing an ng2boot-rest.war and an ng2boot-ui.war.

It's safely deployable to a WildFly application server, because of the jboss-deployment-structure's exclusions in the main projects build.gradle.

Stack

UI

The UI is an Angular 2 SPA, initially generated with Angular-CLI.

Backend

The backend is SpringBoot 1.4.2, using Jersey instead of Spring-MVC, AssertJ for improved assertions, Mockito as mock framework and component based packaging.

Database provisioning (and batteries) not included

This project was lazily scaffolded from a project that had an Oracle XE locally installed on dev machines and Jenkins. I'm gonna assume that you're wise enough to provision your own database using docker or also locally install your required database everywhere you need.

Stuff you'll need to change

Change or remove nexus credentials in ng2boot-rest/gradle.properties. These are used in ng2boot-rest/build.gradle.

Change or remove your-nexusurl.com in ng2boot-rest/build.gradle.

Change the jenkins credentials (github_jenkins_key) to access your github repository in ng2boot.jenkinsfile.

Add/uncomment and change the jdbc driver in ng2boot-rest/build.gradle.
