Apache Isis Demo App
Dear users and developers,
we've started a new github project for a demo app [1], meant to demonstrate Apache Isis' UI features.
The app itself is yet in an early stage, does not show much, but is ready to be filled with content.
We have a first working docker image, which is auto-built and hosted on hub.docker.com. For anyone familiar with docker, its now just 3 commands and you have a running Apache Isis Demo, freshly built from the latest sources.
If you'd like to contribute and help us with the app itself, you are very welcome to get involved on github [1].
Kind regards,
Andi Huber

Thanks Dan!
Currently the public docker image for this demo has about 137MB size. It includes a tomcat 9 installation plus 2 build scripts, one for Isis and one for the demo app.
After executing the build scripts, filesystem usage of the associated docker container easily exceeds 500MB, so I decided not to include these builds with the docker file. Instead let users call these scripts 'manually', which also allows up-to-date rebuilding from scratch without having to pull a new docker image.
I'm not sure how well this approach fits with our CI/CD pipeline, but I'm happy to give it a try.
Cheers, Andi!

Re: Apache Isis Demo App
Posted by Dan Haywood <da...@haywood-associates.co.uk>.
Hi Andi,
Good work, think this is a great idea
(As you know), I've been working on getting a Kubernetes [1] instance
running on Azure [2], with the view that we can get a CI/CD pipeline for
demo apps such as these... will provide a better feedback loop for
committers, as well as some marketing material . Right now I have a demo
app [3] manually deployed at [4], this is basically the simpleapp archetype
but tweaked just a little to support CI/CD. I plan to backport these
changes to the simpleapp archetype. I also intend to define a Helm chart
[5] to make deployment onto k8s really simple, and also to add this into
the simpleapp archetype.
Work pressures are such that this might take me a few more weeks to
complete, but it's definitely gonna happen.
Meantime, you might want to review [3] and see if you can set up your new
demo app to be built in the same way?
Cheers

Re: Apache Isis Demo App
Posted by Andi Huber <ah...@apache.org>.
Thanks for your feedback!
As already mentioned, the app is yet nothing more than a stub. But I'll add features step by step as I find time.
With the coming Apache Isis 2 (pre-)releases, new things like breadcrumbs and visualization of tree data will be made available. I'll add these features to the demo first.
With keeping the barrier for collaboration low, I'd love to see some community help with this project or at least feedback on existing and new features.
The framework itself could need more help as well, especially with documentation. (We are dangerously low on women/man-power.)
Cheers, Andi!

hi Andi,
I gave it a go and and all the docker/isis stuff worked smoothly.
Wasn't sure what to expect and what does it demonstrate though.

Just realized, that I introduced 2 bugs with the latest refactoring sessions (Isis) this weekend, resulting in class not found issues.These are fixed now.

Re: Apache Isis Demo App
Posted by Andi Huber <ah...@apache.org>.
I stripped down the demo app's maven dependencies (pom.xml) to an absolute minimum, such that the content is easy to comprehend.
To be honest, I don't have enough maven insight to understand our "usual way", my bad. If there's an easy fix for the pom.xml, to enable our "usual way", please let me know.
Cheers Andi!
---
For reference ...
As stated on the project's readme, to get the demo running on a docker engine, just execute this 3 steps:
1. docker run --detach --publish 8080:8080 --name demo --restart always ahuber/isis-2-demo:tomcat9-jdk8
2. docker exec -it demo bash -c /opt/isis/build-isis.sh
3. docker exec -it demo bash -c /opt/isis/build-and-deploy-demo.sh
Step 3. builds the demo app's war file, which then (within this 'demo' docker container) is deployed to tomcat.
This allows to easily add different flavors (docker tags) like e.g. a 'tomcat9-jdk10' or a 'payara5-jdk8' later on.

Re: Apache Isis Demo App

Hi Andi,
I tried to run this in our "usual way" with org.apache.isis.WebServer, but
it wasn't on the classpath of the webapp.
I think I also tried mvn jetty:run, but no luck.
Appreciate this is just a demo, but *how* exactly do you run it up? Is it
always a deploy of a war file onto a Tomcat instance?
Cheers
