Demo project for Spring 5 and Reactor with Angular and RxJs

Reactive programming demo

Profiled with Java profiler.

• How to run?

  For the best experience import with IntelliJ.

  Execute in this order:

  1. Run isp.example.service.ReactiveServiceApplication - A Service application
  2. Run isp.example.client.ReactiveClientApplication - A Spring backend client application
  3. In order to start reactive front-end Angular application (requires node and npm):
     • Run cd reactive-front
     • Run npm install
     • Run npm start
  4. Observe logs of all the applications!

• What is inside?

  • ReactiveServiceApplication contains localhost:8080 reactive endpoints:
    • /event - an infinite stream of events
    • /event{id} - get a specific event by id
    • /users - get a collection of all users
    • /users{id} - get a specific user by id
    • /users/count - get count of all users
    • /users/by_name/{name} - get a collection of users with a specified name
  • ReactiveClientApplication is a command line Spring application that uses Spring's new reactive web client to read events from the Service's /events endpoint.
  • Reactive Angular client under localhost:3000
    • As of today (Jun 7, 2017), RsJs has some problems with SSE (Server Side Events). See: ReactiveX/rxjs#1644
    • TypeScript has no EventSource definition. See: microsoft/TypeScript#13666
    • Temporary workaround: using pure JavaScript EventSource implementation.

• Used in this project:

  • Spring Boot 2
  • Spring 5
  • Project Reactor
  • Angular
  • RxJs

• More examples of operators in src/test/java
