Todo Application

Running todo locally

Todo is a Spring Boot application built using Maven. You can build a jar file and run it from the command line (it should work just as well with Java 11 or newer):

git clone https://github.com/raviranjan3570/todo-web-application.git
cd todo
./mvnw package
java -jar target/*.jar

You can then access todo here: http://localhost:8080/

Username: Ravi
Password: abc

Or you can run it from Maven directly using the Spring Boot Maven plugin. If you do this it will pick up changes that you make in the project immediately (changes to Java source files require a compile as well - most people use an IDE for this):

./mvnw spring-boot:run

Building a Container

There is no Dockerfile in this project. You can build a container image (if you have a docker daemon) using the Spring Boot build plugin:

./mvnw spring-boot:build-image

Database configuration

In its default configuration, todo uses an in-memory database (H2) which gets populated at startup with data. The h2 console is automatically exposed at http://localhost:8080/h2-console and it is possible to inspect the content of the database using the url from terminal.

Working with Todo in your IDE

Prerequisites

The following items should be installed in your system:

• Java 11 or newer (full JDK not a JRE).
• git command line tool (https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git)
• Your preferred IDE
  • Eclipse
  • IntelliJ IDEA
  • VS Code

Steps:

1. On the command line

   git clone https://github.com/raviranjan3570/todo-web-application.git
   

2. Inside Eclipse or STS

   File -> Import -> Maven -> Existing Maven project
   

   Run the application main method by right clicking on it and choosing Run As -> Java Application.

3. Inside IntelliJ IDEA In the main menu, choose File -> Open and select the todo. Click on the Open button.

   A run configuration named TodoApplication should have been created for you if you're using a recent Ultimate version. Otherwise, run the application by right clicking on the TodoApplication main class and choosing Run 'TodoApplication'.
