##Description This is a Spring Boot application to demonstrate basic Spring web app attributes. The goal of this application is to demonstrate several Spring and Spring Boot features:
- 5 classes to create a data-driven web application (including 2 pojo data objects and a main method class)
- Autoconfiguration for Spring Boot applications
- Spring Boot starter packs for JPA and REST services
- Spring test fixtures
- Explicit port binding and statelessness (ala 12-factor apps)
- Management and monitoring with the actuator module
- Run standalone or on Cloud Foundry
- Using AngularJS that consumes Spring Boot REST services
##Getting Started To run the application standalone:
mvn clean package
java -jar target/fe-time-tracking-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
which starts an embedded Tomcat server listening on port 8080.
Open http://localhost:8080/ in a browser.
##Actuator The actuator module is also enabled, which exposes a number of management services. For example, open http://localhost:8080/info in a browser to see build information about the application. See the documentation link above for more information about the endpoints exposed.
##Testing
Unit and integration tests automatically start the embedded Tomcat server and / or embedded database as needed. Using Spring's SpringApplicationConfiguration and IntegrationTest annotations on test cases automatically provide the required contexts for testing.
