We Plant A Forest

Dev Requirements

• Java 8
• Eclipse Luna / 4.4 (for 4.3.2 see https://wiki.eclipse.org/JDT/Eclipse_Java_8_Support_For_Kepler)
• Gradle (./gradlew)
• NodeJs (https://github.com/creationix/nvm)

Build System

We use Gradle as our build system. All commands listed here follow the pattern gradle <task>'. If Gradle is not installed on your system you can use sh gradlew <task> instead.

Useful commands

• gradlew tasks - list all tasks
• gradlew eclipse - setup eclipse files
• gradlew run - start server for UI development
• gradlew bootRun - start server for development (refreshes static resources)
• gradlew test - execute unit tests (open report with open build/reports/tests/index.html
• for executing single test add -Dtest.single=ExampleMainTest
• for running tests on mysql add -Pmysql
• gradlew clean - clean the project

IDE Configuration

Setup with the Gradle Integration for Eclipse plugin.

Setup by using the gradle eclipse plugin

Select "Import..." -> "Gradle Project" then build the model and import the plugins you need.

Additional stuff:

Make sure you have the following classes included for static import:

• lombok
• org.assertj.core.api.Assertions
• org.mockito.Matchers
• com.jayway.restassured.RestAssured

(In Eclipse under Preferences/Java/Editor/Content Assist/Favorites)

Testing and Developing with MySql

• Create fresh databases:
• drop database weplantaforest; create database weplantaforest;
• drop database weplantaforest_test; create database weplantaforest_test;
• Run tests with MySql from Gradle by adding the flag -Pmysql, e.g. gradle test -Pmysql
• Run tests with MySql from Eclipse by either:
• Change existing annotation @IntegrationTest({ "spring.profiles.active=test" }) into @IntegrationTest({ "spring.profiles.active=test,mysql-test" })
• OR switch the included profiles in application-test.properties
• Change existing MySql Schema (managed by Flyway)
• Add to the latest (unreleased) src/main/resources/db/migration/V*.sql script
• OR create a new script, e.g. src/main/resources/db/migration/V1_2__descriptionOfMyChange.sql

Stating the backend and the UI
