CodeJam - Combine SAP Cloud Application Programming Model with SAP HANA Cloud to Create Full-Stack Applications

Description

This repository contains the material for the CodeJam on using the SAP Cloud Application Programming Model and SAP HANA Cloud to create Full-Stack Applications. In this CodeJam we will learn how to Deploy and configure an instance of the SAP HANA Cloud trial, develop a multi-target application using SAP Business Application Studio and SAP Cloud Application Programming Model, and create a service layer and SAP Fiori UI that also includes SAP HANA native artifacts, such as calculation views.

Overview

• SAP Cloud Application Programming Model Presentation from Introduction

Requirements

The requirements to follow the exercises in this repository, including hardware and software, are detailed in the prerequisites file.

Material organization

The material consists of a series of exercises. Each exercise is contained in a directory, with a main 'readme' file containing the core exercise instructions, with optional supporting files, such as screenshots and sample files.

Following the exercises

During the CodeJam you will complete each exercise one at a time. At the end of each exercise there are questions; these are designed to help you think about the content just covered, and are to be discussed with the entire CodeJam class, led by the instructor, when everyone has finished that exercise.

If you finish an exercise early, please resist the temptation to continue with the next one. Instead, explore what you've just done and see if you can find out more about the subject that was covered. That way we all stay on track together and can benefit from some reflection via the questions (and answers).

The exercises are written in a conversational way; this is so that they have enough context and information to be completed outside the hands-on session itself. To help you navigate and find what you have to actually do next, there are pointers like this 👉 throughout that indicate the things you have to actually do (as opposed to just read for background information).

The exercises

Here's an overview of the exercises in this CodeJam.

• Make certain that you have successfully completed all the prerequisites
• Exercise 1 - Set Up SAP HANA Cloud and Development Environment
  • Exercise 1.1 - Deploy SAP HANA Cloud
  • Exercise 1.2 - Set Up SAP Business Application Studio for Development
• Exercise 2 - Create an SAP Cloud Application Programming Model Project for SAP HANA Cloud
• Exercise 3 - Create Database Artifacts Using Core Data Services (CDS) for SAP HANA Cloud
• Exercise 4 - Create a User Interface with CAP (SAP HANA Cloud)
• Exercise 5 - Add User Authentication to Your Application (SAP HANA Cloud)
• Exercise 6 - Create Calculation View and Expose via CAP (SAP HANA Cloud)
• Exercise 7 - Create HANA Stored Procedure and Expose as CAP Service Function (SAP HANA Cloud)
• Exercise 8 - Deploy CAP with SAP HANA Cloud project as MTA

Known Issues

When creating the HDI Container instance in Exercise 3, the Business Application Studio tooling sometimes does not properly wait for the container creation. In these situations, simply wait a moment for creation to complete and then repeat the step.

Feedback

If you can spare a couple of minutes at the end of the session, please help me improve for next time by giving me some feedback.

Simply use this Give Feedback link to create a special "feedback" issue, and follow the instructions in there.
