Tapestry integration with other frameworks
Hi list
I've been looking around for a good Web-Framework and Tapestry looks pretty
good in this respect. But since tapestry only covers one of several aspects
of a web application I'd like to know if it's possible to integrate tapestry
with other frameworks like velocity to introduce template capabilities,
hibernate for or mapping, etc...
I'm still very new to all these frameworks and only have a vague idea of what
they do but I think it's enough to know that they should be able to work
together.
What I'm basically looking for is a front to end solution which is easy to use
and where the tedious work is handled by the frameworks, on all layers of an
application.
Are there any experiences with projects where tapestry, hibernate etc. were
used at the same time? Is there a general recommendation to what should be
used to extend tapestry? Are there projects that just don't work with
tapestry?
Please elaborate a bit on your experiences.
Thank you
Patrick

If you look at the wiki, at http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-tapestry/ and
scroll down to sample appplications, you'll see several that combine
Tapestry with other tools.

I have to plug Cayenne as a database tool. Getting it to work basically
involves making sure the cayenne.xml file is at the root of your web
context and adding a single getDataContext() method to your Visit
object. It's very clean.

I'd like to say thanks to those who replied. My searches on the net weren't
very useful but now I have a starting point.
I also saw that there really is no need for a templating framework as someone
pointed out in his response to my mail - the border example from the dorffweb
tutorial shows this very nicely.
To sum it up, I went through this yesterday:
http://dorffweb.com/index.htm?page=taptutorial
And the ones here are to be done soon:

Thanks again

We do lots of integration with Velocity. Works well. We created a Snippet
component to display the snippets we put in our Velocity templates.

Hi Patrick,
You can see find example of using JDO with Tapestry at
http://www.jpox.org/docs/1_0/tutorials/tapestry.html, complete with
tutorial.

Tapestry is a complete web framework, you don't need velocity or
webmacro.
Hibernate integration is pretty straightforward, you can use spring
framework for that purpose.

Re: Tapestry integration with other frameworks

Patrick,
it is, of course, possible to integrate Tapestry with other frameworks.
For example, I routinely use Tapestry with Hibernate and Spring. I
believe there's a number of people using a Hibernate alternative,
Cayenne, and Howard's Hivemind is an alternative to Spring.
In fact, Tapestry is, and should be, agnostic to these technologies.
I don't think there exists (correct me if I'm wrong) a prebuilt
solution that covers all layers. But, there does exist a lot of
documentation of integrating the various layer technolgies I listed
above. Look at the home pages for Hibernate, Spring, Cayenne and
Hivemind and you'll fine docs on integration.
As for templating technologies such as Velocity, I can't say I see the
need. What templating functionality does velocity give you over and
above what can be achived in Tapestry alone?
