Spring Archetype With Generics

This repository contains a project that has a structure based on generic types to create an API very quickly based on empty classes.

How to use it?

1. You must clone the project.
2. Add your connection parameters in the application.properties file.
3. After that we must create a series of classes for each entity for which we want to create a CRUD:
   • An entity and a DTO
   • A converter that extends AbstractDTOConverter (Implementing the missing methods) annotated with @Service
   • A repository that extends JPARepository, annotated with @Repository and leave it blank
   • A service that extends AbstractCRUDService, annotated with @Service and leave it blank
   • A controller that extends AbstractController, annotated with @RestController and @RequestMapping(path = "/your/path"). Just leave it blank too.
4. Run the project!

What are the endpoints?

the routes will always be

path:port/<path-controller>/<method-action>

For an example entity called example, the endpoints would be as follows:

• GET localhost:8080/example/get/{id} - Get an example entity by id
• GET localhost:8080/example/get/all - Get all example entities
• POST localhost:8080/example/save - Save example entity from json body.
• POST localhost:8080/example/save/all - Save all example entities from json body.
• PUT localhost:8080/example/save - modify example entity from json body.
• PUT localhost:8080/example/save/all - modify all example entities from json body.
• DELETE localhost:8080/example/delete - remove example entity from json body.
• DELETE localhost:8080/example/delete/{id} - remove example entity by id
