Spring Boot - AngularJS Intro

Introduction to Angular JS and Spring Boot.

1. Create a Spring Boot Project at Spring Intializer webstite with the following configuration:

2. Clone this repository, open the console and go to angular-seed folder

3. Install the node libraries with the following command:

   npm install
   

4. Run the angular local server to test the base project and make sure the navigation works correctly:

   npm start

5. Create a folder called app/models. And then create a model class for the TODO object.

   5.1) Navigate to the models folder and generate the TODO class with the following command:

   ng g class todo
   

   5.2) Add the following attributes to the TODO model:

        export class Todo {
            private description: string;
            private priority: Number;
            private completed: boolean;
        
            constructor(description: string, priority: Number = 1, completed: boolean = false) {
                this.description = description;
                this.completed = completed;
                this.priority = priority;
            }
        }
   
   

6. Read about services in the Angular JS documentation site: https://angular.io/guide/architecture#services. Once you understand the concept of services then create a service that will handle the TODO objects:

   6.1) Create a folder called app/services.

   6.2) Navigate from the console to the services folder and generate the TODO service with the following command.

   ng g service todo --spec false
   

   6.3) Open the file todo.service.ts and check the content of the generated file.

7. Create a mocked list of TODO objects in the todo.service.ts file:

   @Injectable()
   export class TodoService {
     private todos: Todo[] = [
         new Todo('todo 1'),
         new Todo('todo 2', 1, true),
         new Todo('todo 3')
       ];
   
   

7.1) Import Todo class:

```
import { Todo } from '../models/todo';
```

8. Create a method that expose the mocked list of TODO objects:

       constructor() {
       
         }
       
         list(): Todo[] {
           return this.todos;
         }      
   

9. Register the todo.service as provided in the app.module.ts file:

   9.1) Import the service:

   import { TodoService } from './services/todo.service';
   
   

   9.2) Include the todo.service in the providers array of the app module:

   @NgModule({
    declarations: [
      AppComponent,
      HomePageComponent,
      TaskListPageComponent,
      TaskEditPageComponent,
      PageNotFoundComponent
    ],
    imports: [
      BrowserModule,
      NgbModule.forRoot(),
      RouterModule.forRoot(ROUTES),
      ReactiveFormsModule
    ],
    providers: [TodoService],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
   })
      
   

10. Import and inject the todo.service and todo in the task-list-page.components.ts:

    10.1) Import the TodoService and the model:

    import { TodoService } from '../../services/todo.service';
    import { Todo } from '../../models/todo';             
    

    10.1) Inject the TodoService in the component constructor:

     constructor(public todoService: TodoService) {
              
                }
    

11. Create a list of Todo Objects in the TaskListPageComponent:

    export class TaskListPageComponent implements OnInit {
     private todos: Todo[] = [];
    

    Así:

    export class TaskListPageComponent implements OnInit {
    
         private todos: Todo[] = [];
    
       constructor(public todoService: TodoService) {
      }
    

12. Implement the ngOnInit method to initialize the Todo Objects list:

    ngOnInit() {
        this.todos = this.todoService.list();
      }
    

13. Go to the view tasks-list-page.component.html and add the logic to display the list:

    <h2>Tasks</h2>
    <table class="table table-bordered">
     <thead>
       <tr>
         <th>Description</th>
         <th>Priority</th>
         <th>Completed</th>
       </tr>
     </thead>
     <tr *ngFor="let todo of todos">
       <td>{{todo.description}}</td>
       <td>{{todo.priority}}</td>
       <td>{{todo.completed}}</td>
     </tr>
    </table>
    

14. Start the Angular server and verify that the lists of TODOs is shown correctly.

15. Inject the Todo service and Todo in the TaskEditPageComponent.

    import { TodoService } from '../../services/todo.service';
    import { Todo } from '../../models/todo';
    

16. Create a form on the view task-edit-page-component.html to create a TODO object:

    <div class="container">
      <h2>Edit Task</h2>
      <form [formGroup]="todoForm" (ngSubmit)="onSubmit()" novalidate>
        <div class="form-group">
          <label for="description">Description</label>
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="description" formControlName="description" required>
        </div>
    
        <div class="form-group">
          <label for="priority">Priority</label>
          <input type="number" class="form-control" id="alterEgo" formControlName="priority">
        </div>
    
        <div class="form-group">
          <label for="completed">Completed</label>
          <input type="checkbox" class="form-control" id="completed" formControlName="completed">
        </div>
    
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Save</button>
    
      </form>
    </div>
    

17. Import the fromGroup class and formBuilder service on the task-edit-page.component.ts:

    import { FormGroup, FormBuilder } from '@angular/forms';
    

18. Initialize the form on the task-edit-page.component.ts ngOnInit method:

    ngOnInit() {
        this.todoForm = this.formBuilder.group({
          description: '',
          completed: '',
          priority: ''
        });
      }
    

19. Inject the router service on the task-edit-page.component.ts:

    import { Router } from '@angular/router';
    
    

    
    public todoForm: FormGroup;
    constructor(
        public todoService: TodoService,
        public formBuilder: FormBuilder,
        public router: Router,
      ) {
    
      }
    

20. Implement the method onSubmit on the task-edit-page.component.ts:

    onSubmit() {
       this.todoService.create(
         this.todoForm.get('description').value,
         this.todoForm.get('priority').value,
         Boolean(this.todoForm.get('completed').value)
       );
    
       this.router.navigate(['/tasks']);
     }
    

19.1) Crear metodo crear de todo.Service para efectivamente guardar y mostrar en Task:

```
create(description: string, priority: Number, completed: boolean) {
		this.todos.push(new Todo(description, priority, completed));
	} 
	
```

20. Run the Angular server and verify that the add todo works.

Part 2: Compile the angular project and include it on the Spring Boot server

1. Compile the Angular project with the following command:

   npm run build
   

2. Copy all the files contain in the anuglar-seed/dist folder of the resources/static folder in the SpringBoot project.

3. Run the Spring Boot server from the console and verify that project works.

./gradlew bootRun
