Part 3 - Introducing the domain objects and first lead create view

As I decided that I will go with static forms instead of dynamic ones, I set sail creating the createlead.html page with Thymeleaf support and Spring MVC.The listing below shows the form:

Next step is to modify the guest controller and introduce a new savelead controller as shown in Listing 2

Listing 2 - SaveLeadController.java

package com.effectivcrm.controller;

import lombok.extern.slf4j.Slf4j;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

import com.effectivcrm.domain.Address;
import com.effectivcrm.domain.Lead;

@Controller
@Slf4j
public class SaveLeadController {

@ModelAttribute
public Lead initLead(){
Lead lead = new Lead();
lead.setAddress(new Address());

log.info("Lead = {}", lead);
log.info("Address = {}", lead.getAddress());

return new Lead();
}

@RequestMapping("/savelead")
public String saveLead(Lead lead){
log.info("Lead for saving = {}", lead);
return "createlead";
}

@RequestMapping(value="/createlead")
public String createLead(){
return "createlead";
}

}

 

Now the most important thing we introduce the domain objects. For this we need the Hibernate dependencies. These are added in the parent pom.xml. The domain object project is created by Maven quickstart archetype. The domain object Lead extends from PersistentObject class and also embeds an Address object. Note the use of nested object with Spring EL and Thmyeleaf in Listing 1. All source code is available in SVN.

    Breaking down the CRM monolith

    In my previous posts, I have shared some theory regarding microservices. But it's time to start some implementation. I love to write code and see and feel things working. So I will start a series to refactor a monolithic CRM system and transform it into microservices based flexible software. Big ball of mud. Customer Relationship Management(CRM) is that giant software which existed since time immemorial and is used by all companies in some form or shape. Big enterprises will buy CRM software (also known as packages) from top CRM vendors like Oracle, SAP, Salesforce etc and then employ an army of consultants to try and implement it. Most of the classic CRM systems in the market today, even if deployed on the cloud are the big monolithic ball of mud. They are the gigantic piece of software with the huge feature set. Most often those requirements are surplus to the requirement or they will not fit into the processes of the company. So the company has to hire these certified consu

    Part 3 - Integrating Tiles, Thymeleaf and Spring MVC 3

    In this post I will demonstrate how to integrate Apache Tiles with Thymeleaf. This is very simple. The first step is to include the tiles and thymeleaf-tiles extension dependencies. I will include them in the pom.xml. Note we wil lbe using Tiles 2.2.2 Listing 1 - parent/pom.xml --- thymeleaf-tiles and tiles dependencies <!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> <!-- Tiles --> <!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId> <artifactId>tiles-core</artifactId> <version>${tiles.version}</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId> <artifactId>tiles-template</artifactId> <version>${tiles.version}</version> <scope>compile</s
