A nano project to start a Vaadin project. Perfect for Micro-UIs packed as fat jar in a docker image.
This example is running from JDK8 up to JDK13
To support the Heroku pipeline we need a few preparations.
- the app must be able to get a configured port for the http port during the start up
- add the shade plugin to create a fat jar
- create the file Procfile and add the line
``web: java -jar target/vaadin-app.jar -port $PORT```
- web - to activate the web profile
- -jar - define what fat jar must be started
- -port make the dynamic associated port available for the app
- add a file settings.xml to configure the maven build process
If you want to see a demo that is using this repo, or better, the module with the demo app you can have a view at the instances that are running on Heroku.
The master branch is deploeyd at https://nano-vaadin-undertow.herokuapp.com/ and the develop branch is deployed at https://nano-vaadin-undertow-develop.herokuapp.com/
The target of this project is a minimal rampup time for a first hello world. Why we need one more HelloWorld? Well, the answer is quite easy. If you have to try something out, or you want to make a small POC to present something, there is no time and budget to create a demo project. You don´t want to copy paste all small things together. Here you will get a Nano-Project that will give you all in a second.
Clone the repo and start editing the class BasicTestUI or BasicTestUIRunner.
Nothing more.
This project will not use any additional maven plugin or technology. Core Kotlin and the Vaadin Dependencies are all that you need to put a Vaadin app into a Servlet-container.
Here we are using the plain undertow as Servlet-Container.
As mentioned before, there is not additional technology involved. No DI to wire all things together.
But let´s start from the beginning.
The class BasicTestUIRunner will ramp up the Container.
Here all the basic stuff is done. The start will init. a ServletContainer at port 8899. The WebApp will deployed as ROOT.war.
public void startup() {
final ClassLoader classLoader = CoreUIJavaService.class.getClassLoader();
DeploymentInfo servletBuilder = Servlets.deployment()
.setClassLoader(classLoader)
.setContextPath("/")
.setDeploymentName("ROOT.war")
.setDefaultEncoding("UTF-8")
.setResourceManager(
new ClassPathResourceManager(classLoader, "META-INF/resources/"))
.addServletContainerInitializer(
new ServletContainerInitializerInfo(RouteRegistryInitializer.class,
setOfRouteAnnotatedClasses()))
.addListener(Servlets.listener(ServletDeployer.class));
final DeploymentManager manager = Servlets.defaultContainer()
.addDeployment(servletBuilder);
manager.deploy();
try {
PathHandler path = path(redirect("/")).addPrefixPath("/", manager.start());
Undertow u = Undertow.builder()
.addHttpListener(
Integer.parseInt(getProperty(CORE_UI_SERVER_PORT, CORE_UI_SERVER_PORT_DEFAULT)),
getProperty(CORE_UI_SERVER_HOST, CORE_UI_SERVER_HOST_DEFAULT))
.setHandler(path)
.build();
u.start();
u.getListenerInfo()
.forEach(e -> logger().info(e.toString()));
undertow = success(u);
} catch (ServletException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
undertow = failure(e.getMessage());
}
}After this you can start the app invoking the main-method.
The UI itself is quite easy. There is only a button you can click. For every click, the counter will be increased.
@Route("")
class VaadinApp : Composite<Div>(), HasLogger {
private val btnClickMe = Button("click me")
private val lbClickCount = Span("0")
private val layout = VerticalLayout(btnClickMe, lbClickCount)
private var clickcount = 0
init {
btnClickMe.setId(BTN_CLICK_ME)
btnClickMe.addClickListener { event -> lbClickCount.text = (++clickcount).toString() }
lbClickCount.setId(LB_CLICK_COUNT)
//set the main Component
logger().info("setting now the main ui content..")
content.add(layout)
}
companion object {
// read http://vaadin.com/testing for more infos
val BTN_CLICK_ME = buttonID().apply(VaadinApp::class.java, "btn-click-me")
val LB_CLICK_COUNT = spanID().apply(VaadinApp::class.java, "lb-click-count")
}
}For UI Tests I am using Selenoid. You will find this on github at
After the selenoid node is (locally) started you could check the status at http://localhost:4444/status.
Default location for videos when installed with cm is ~/.aerokube/selenoid/video or C:\Users<user>.aerokube\selenoid\video.
For testing the Vaadin app, the Open Source project Testbench-NG is used. This is a jUnit5 / Webdriver - manager AddOn for the Selenium and Testbench projects. To read more about it, plase have a look at
https://github.com/vaadin-developer/vaadin-testbench-ng The lates version of Testbench NG is :
The next step is to create a PageObject for the UI. This can be done straight forward.
class BasicTestPageObject(webDriver: WebDriver, containerInfo: ContainerInfo)
: AbstractVaadinPageObject(webDriver, containerInfo) {
fun button(): ButtonElement {
return btn().id(BasicTestUI.BUTTON_ID)
}
fun counterLabel(): LabelElement {
return label().id(BasicTestUI.LABEL_ID)
}
}Now we can start writing logical tests. One could be
@VaadinWebUnitTest
internal class BasicUnitTest {
@Test
fun test001(pageObject: BasicTestPageObject) {
pageObject.loadPage()
Assertions.assertEquals("0", pageObject.counterLabel().text)
pageObject.button().click()
Assertions.assertEquals("1", pageObject.counterLabel().text)
pageObject.screenshot()
}
}This project will give you the basic config for MutationTesting as well. Invoke the maven target pitest:mutationCoverage to create the report. The report itself will be under target/pit-reports
Happy Coding.
