Using SAP Cloud Application Programming Model and SAP Fiori elements to build a simple travel management app, both with Node.js and Java.

Welcome to the CAP SFLIGHT App

This is a sample app for the travel reference scenario, built with the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model (CAP) and SAP Fiori elements.

The purpose of this sample app is to:

• Demonstrate SAP Fiori annotations
• Demonstrate and compare SAP Fiori features on various stacks (CAP Node.js, CAP Java SDK, ABAP)
• Run UI test suites on various stacks

Currently the app is only available for the CAP Node.js stack. A version for CAP Java SDK will follow soon.

The app still contains some workarounds that are going to be addressed over time. In some cases, the model and the handlers can be improved or simplified once further planned CAP features become available. In other cases, the app itself could be improved. For example, calculation of the total price for a travel currently simply sums up the single prices ignoring the currencies.

SAP Fiori UI with Node.js Backend

Build and Run

1. In a console, execute npm ci in the root folder of your project.
2. In a console, execute cds watch in the root folder of your project.

Accessing the SAP Fiori App

Open this link in your browser: http://localhost:4004/travel_processor/webapp/index.html

Integration Tests

To start OPA tests, open this link in your browser: http://localhost:4004/travel_processor/webapp/test/integration/opaTests.qunit.html

Test documentation is available at: https://ui5.sap.com/#/api/sap.fe.test

Deployment to SAP Business Technology Platform

The project contains a configuration for deploying the CAP services and the SAP Fiori app to the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) using a managed application router. The app then becomes visible in the content manager of the SAP Launchpad service.

Prerequisites

SAP Business Technology Platform

• Create a trial account on SAP BTP. See this tutorial for more information. Alternatively, you can use a subaccount in a productive environment.
• Subscribe to the SAP Launchpad service.
• Create an SAP HANA Cloud service instance or use an existing one.

Local Machine

• Install the Cloud Foundry command line interface (CLI). See this tutorial for more details.

• Install the MultiApps CF CLI Plugin:

  cf add-plugin-repo CF-Community https://plugins.cloudfoundry.org
  cf install-plugin multiapps

• Install the Cloud MTA Build Tool globally:

  npm install -g mbt

Build the Project

Build the project from the command line:

mbt build

The build results will be stored in the directory mta_archives.

Deploy

1. Log in to the target space.
2. Deploy the MTA archive using the CF CLI: cf deploy mta_archives/capire.sflight_1.0.0.mtar
