Examples of web applications hosted by the platform

Examples

This is the public repository for simple examples developed with Ecstasy to be deployed on the XQIZ.IT hosting platform.

Layout

We assume the following application layout:

 myApp/                         <- the project root
  |- server/                     <- the back end source (Ecstasy-base)
  |  |- build.gradle.kts         <- the gradle build script for the server components
  |  |- main/
  |     |- resources/            <- static resources
  |     |  |- webapp             <- the directory to copy the application web content
  |     |    |- index.html       <- the landing page
  |     |    |- ...
  |     |- x/                    <- source code directory
  |     |  |- myApp.x            <- application module file
  |     |  |- myApp/
  |     |     |- ...             <- application packages and classes
  |
  |- webapp/                     <- the gui (html- and js-based)
  |  |- build.gradle.kts         <- the gradle build script for the server components
  |  |- package.json             <- the project metadata
  |  |- public/                  <- static web resources (.html, .ico, .png, ...) 
  |     |- index.html            <- the landing page
  |  |  |- ...
  |  |- src/                  <- javascript source root
  |  |     |- index.js           <- the landing page source
  |  |     |- App.js             <- application components
  |  |     |- ...
  |  | 
  |- README.md
  |- build.gradle.kts

Steps to test the examples

As a temporary process, do the following:

1. Follow the instructions from the PAAS setup repository to start the hosting site.

2. To develop a stand-alone (disconnected) web-site using NPM, install it in myApp/webapp directory.

   cd myApp/webapp 
   npm install
   npm start
   

3. Use the platform UI to upload and run the applications
