Aspectran - Java application framework

Aspectran is a framework for developing Java applications that can be used to build simple shell applications and large enterprise web applications.

The key features of Aspectran are:

Support POJO (Plain Old Java Object) programming model
Developers do not need to know the heavy and complex objects used internally by the framework. They can exchange objects with the framework using simple Java classes.
Support Inversion of Control (IoC)
What's more, the framework manages the creation and lifecycle of objects while controlling the overall flow, freeing developers to focus on their business logic.
Support Dependency Injection (DI)
The framework systematically connects modules that depend on each other at runtime to ensure low coupling between modules and to increase code reusability.
Support Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP)
The framework combines additional features such as transactions, logging, security, and exception handling with code written by the developer at runtime.
Support building RESTful Web Services
Aspectran is a framework designed from the ground up for REST API implementations and optimized for microservices architectures.
Fast development and startup time
Aspectran's intuitive programming model guarantees fast development time and runs faster than other frameworks.
Create Aspectran-powered, production-grade applications
You can create reliable, standalone Java applications that run on multiple operating systems, and even run them in servlet containers or embed them into other Java applications.

Aspectran-powered applications support the following execution environments on the JVM:

Consistent shell interface for command line applications
Runs as a background process on Unix-based or Windows operating systems
Built-in high performance web application server (Undertow, Jetty)
Can also be run as a servlet in a traditional servlet container like Apache Tomcat or WildFly

Aspectran consists of the following major packages:

com.aspectran.core

Building

Requirements

Check out and build:

git clone git://github.com/aspectran/aspectran.git
cd aspectran
./build rebuild

To run the demo, simply use the following command after having build Aspectran

./build demo

JetBrains products are very helpful in developing Aspectran.
