Angular Tour Of Heroes

This project takes the Angular Tour of Heroes Tutorial and combines Angular CLI and Spring Boot.

Prerequisites

Angular CLI

Please follow the Angular CLI instructions.

Spring

All Spring server side dependencies will be pulled in using the included script, gradlew or gradle.bat for Windows. Note that I haven't tested on Windows. The Spring server is optional. Everything will work fine using only the Angular CLI managed development server, ng serve. Otherwise Spring requires Java 1.8 or greater. OpenJDK 8 works fine.

JS Dependencies

Pick either npm or yarn for the JavaScript dependencies.

Quick Start

Run yarn install or npm install.
Run ng serve to start the Angular CLI managed development server.
Navigate to http://localhost:4200. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Spring Web Server

Run ./gradlew bootRun from the project root to start the Spring server with an embedded Tomcat. Navigate to http://localhost:8093. It also serves up the Angular client. The distribution is copied to src/main/resources/static.

The development server, ng serve can run at the same time as the Spring Server. The idea is to have the Spring Server provide a convenient spot for REST endpoints. in-memory-data.server.ts could be replaced with Java REST controllers (servlets).

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive/pipe/service/class/module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the -prod flag for a production build.

Running unit tests

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor. Before running the tests make sure you are serving the app via ng serve.

Further help

To get more help on the Angular CLI use ng help or go check out the Angular CLI README.
