spring-react-campus

This is a campus for universities that consist on a multi-module maven project that bundles both frontend (full-fledged SPA client) and backend (API REST) into a single WAR ready to be deployed and run under the same context.

Backend

Structure

The overall project structure (attempts) to follow DDD (Domain Driven Design by Eric Evans):

• interfaces: Declares the contracts for both the /services and /persistence implementations
• models: Declares the domain (ORM-based entities for JPA)
• persistence: Implements the contracts declared over /interfaces, it's the link between the database and the application
• services: Implements the contracts declared over /interfaces, it's the link between the controllers and the persistence layer
• webapp: Implements the API REST endpoints, uses the service layer.

Dependencies

The backend utilizes the following plugins/dependencies:

• Jersey
• Jax-RS
• JUnit4 + Mockito
• Spring 4 + Spring Security
• Spring HATEOAS + MapStruct
• Hibernate JPA + PSQL

Functionality

The backend is an API REST that consists on three main filters that execute in order:

• Authorization filter (spring-security)
• Jersey filter (servlet-container)
• Default spring filter

Every authorized request over /api/** passes through the security filter which checks for either the Basic or Bearer authorization header. In the case the provided header is Basic and the credentials are correct, a JWT token is generated and appended in the response as Authorization: Bearer

After this, the jersey filter takes over and tries to find the endpoint corresponding to the request, in case it's not found, the request is forwarded to the spring default filter which allows serving static content on which we serve the react /index.html as we can see over the web.xml

Build

To build the project just run (you can opt to skip tests):

mvn clean install --DskipTests

Frontend

The frontend uses the following libraries/modules/frameworks:

• react-typescript
• react-router
• i18next
• jest

For standalone dev deployment you can navigate to the /spa-client folder and run:

npm start

Note: make sure to update the /src/common/constants/index.js API base url if you are doing this

To execute the tests run:

npm test

For a production build run:

npm run build
