Quarkus allows developers to start a new application development based on OpenJDK 17. Read the tutorial below to find out how!

In this blog, I will show you how I got started with Vaadin Flow. With Vaadin Flow, you can create web apps without HTML or JavaScript, but entirely with Java. Let’s get started! 1. Introduction For some time, I have been curious about Vaadin Flow. I am not very good in frontend developement but sometimes I try to get myself together and then I take a look at a frontend framework. In a previous post, I looked at React for example. Although the React introduction was a nice experience, I still did not think I could create a frontend with React before investing a serious amount of time. At Twitter, I often saw posts coming by about Vaadin and this took my interest. So, I put Vaadin on my blog todo list. A few weeks ago, I started to take a closer look at Vaadin, and more specifically at Vaadin Flow. Reading some blogs and examples, it reminded me about Java Swing but where Java Swing would create a traditional desktop application, Vaadin will create a web application for me. That sounds cool, because now I probably do not have a very steep learning curve and I can continue working in my Java IDE. Besides that, it also seems to integrate quite well with Spring, which I also already know. Enough prerequisites which should lead to a succes story for me. During my research I came up to the following interesting articles: Why I (still) love Vaadin, by Nicolas Fränkel; 5 Reasons Why Enterprises Use Vaadin For Their Web Application UI Needs, by Ankurman Shrestha Vaadin also takes care of the communication between frontend and backend. But when you are using a First API approach, you can call the API from the Vaadin backend part preventing duplication in your code. 2. Vaadin Flow Tutorial The easiest way to get started, is by following the Vaadin Flow Tutorial. Beware that you select the correct version of Vaadin Flow. At the time of writing, Vaadin 14 is the LTS version and is the one you should use when running in production, Vaadin 22 is the latest non-LTS version with new features to experiment with. I am most interested in the current production status and follow the Vaadin 14 Tutorial. The tutorial contains a basic project which you will enhance each time with code snippets which are provided. Also, the concepts and code snippets are clearly explained. Some basic components are used, login is added and it is also shown how you can write tests for the application. The latter is a great advantage because automated testing of a frontend application is always difficult to execute. It takes about 3-4 hours to complete the tutorial, but after that, you already have a good basis for creating your own project. The only disadvantage for me is that the tutorial is mainly copying of code snippets. This way, you miss certain details when trying to use Vaadin Flow yourself. 3. Own Project Let’s see whether I am able to create a frontend for a simple application. The application I create is quite basic and contains of a list of Shows for which ShowEvents can be created. A Show consists out of a title and a ShowEvent consists out of a date and the Show the event is for. The sources for this project can be found at GitHub. I will not explain the entire application, but I will mention some highlights how I built the application. 3.1 Get Started In order to get a quick start, I navigated to start.vaadin.com. Here you can configure the basic setup for the application. I chose an Empty template and added two views: one for the Shows and one for the ShowEvents. In the Settings tab, I changed the Project, the Group ID and decided to use Java 17. When ready configuring, I clicked the Download button and opened the project in my favorite IDE. In the pom, I changed the vaadin dependency to vaadin-core. Reason for this is that I only want to use free components and this should be more than enough for the basic application I want to build. XML com.vaadin vaadin-core ... Next, I wanted to run the application by running the main method of the Application class. Remember, Vaadin integrates well with Spring, so we are talking about a Spring Boot application here. However, this gave the following exception: Shell java.lang.IllegalStateException: The compatibility mode is explicitly set to 'false', but there are neither 'flow-build-info.json' nor 'webpack.config.js' file available in the project/work I was a little too enthusiastic, I had to build the application first. Shell $ mvn clean package After this, the application started successfully. 3.2 Creating the Application I started with creating the data package and copying the AbstractEntity of the tutorial into it. This required adding the spring-boot-starter-data-jpa dependency to the pom. OK, I know I wrote that by copying you miss some details and now I do it myself, but there is nothing wrong with a smart copy now and then. XML org.springframework.boot spring-boot-starter-data-jpa Next, I created the Show and ShowEvent entities and added the JPA repositories. Vaadin also provides a dependency for generating example data. This way, you can generate data into your application for testing purposes. Therefore, I added the exampledata dependency and created the DataGenerator class. XML com.vaadin exampledata 4.1.0 In order to get this working, I had to remove the NotEmpty annotation because of the following exception. I did not investigate this exception any further. Shell No validator could be found for constraint 'javax.validation.constraints.NotEmpty' validating type 'java.time.LocalDate' Next, I created the ShowService and added the H2 database as a dependency to the pom. XML com.h2database h2 Building and starting the application was successfull again and after that, I implemented the ShowsView, ShowEventsView and the ShowEventForm. The first two are for displaying the Shows and ShowEvents into a grid and the ShowEventForm will allow us to change and delete a ShowEvent. To give you an impression, some screenshots are shown here. The Shows page. The ShowEvents page. The ShowEvent form. 3.3 Lazy Loading In the DataGenerator the number of ShowEvents was initially set to 50, but when I increase this to 1000, then a problem occurs in the ShowEvents page. The whole list of ShowEvents is retrieved and loaded into memory. This will get worse when the list grows even further. The solution is provided in the documentation. First, I needed to change to ShowEventRepository by extending it from PagingAndSortingRepository instead of JpaRepository. Java public interface ShowEventRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository { } Following the instructions of the documentation worked just fine when I scrolled slowly through the list, but when I scrolled a bit faster an IndexOutOfBoundsException was thrown. Shell java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 50 out of bounds for length 50 In order to explain why this exception occurs, we need to take a look at the code for fetching the results. Java private void updateList() { DataProvider dataProvider = DataProvider.fromCallbacks( // First callback fetches items based on a query query -> { // The index of the first item to load int offset = query.getOffset(); // The number of items to load int limit = query.getLimit(); List showEvents = showService.fetchShowEvents(offset, limit); return showEvents.stream(); }, // Second callback fetches the total number of items currently in the Grid. // The grid can then use it to properly adjust the scrollbars. query -> showService.countShowEvents()); grid.setDataProvider(dataProvider); } The offset and the limit (number of items to load) are retrieved from the query provided by Vaadin. However, JPA pagination needs a page and a limit. Therefore, the page needs to be calculated by dividing the offset by the limit. Initially, I just used the offset directly for the page and this caused the error. Java public List fetchShowEvents(int offset, int limit) { return showEventRepository.findAll(PageRequest.of(offset / limit, limit)).stream().toList(); } 4. Conclusion My first experience with Vaadin is quite positive. In most cases, I just need a frontend for an administrator or a limited set of users. With Vaadin I can make use of my Java experience and still provide a fancy web application. Also, the idea that I am able to create tests appeals me a lot. The free components will be most of the time enough for these kind of applications and if not, also some more advanced components are provided by means of a license.

In this blog, the AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) is introduced. You will learn what SAM is and where it can be used for. You will also get your hands dirty, because you will create an AWS SAM project from scratch. Enjoy! 1. Introduction AWS SAM is, according to the official documentation, a framework that you can use to build serverless applications on AWS . A serverless application consists of several lambda’s and other resources working together. In order to define all of these components, a SAM template is used. This SAM template is used to deploy the application to AWS. During deployment, the SAM template is converted to a CloudFormation template which will actually create the resources defined in the SAM template. An introduction to AWS CloudFormation is given in a previous post. SAM can be seen as a CloudFormation++ where less configuration is needed in the template itself. E.g. the Events property in a SAM template will create an API gateway for the Lambda but with less yaml than you would need in a CloudFormation template. You will see for yourself later on in this post. Another big advantage of SAM is that you can easily test it locally on your dev machine. Enough talking, let’s get started! In a previous post, a Java Lambda with an API gateway was created. You will use the code of that Lambda for deploying the application using SAM. The code for the Lambda is available at GitHub. The resulting SAM template and Lambda used in this blog, is also available at GitHub. The step-by-step guide is inspired by the AWS Getting Started tutorial. However, in this post you will use a Java Lambda instead of Python and you will see what you need to change to the Lambda created in a previous post in order to let it work with SAM. A prerequisite is that you have the SAM CLI installed, instructions can be found here. 2. Creating the SAM Application The easiest way to get started, is to start from an example application. Shell $ sam init Choose for AWS Quick Start Template. Shell Which template source would you like to use? 1 - AWS Quick Start Templates 2 - Custom Template Location Choice: 1 Choose for package type Zip. Shell What package type would you like to use? 1 - Zip (artifact is a zip uploaded to S3) 2 - Image (artifact is an image uploaded to an ECR image repository) Package type: 1 Choose Java11. Shell Which runtime would you like to use? 1 - nodejs14.x 2 - python3.8 3 - ruby2.7 4 - go1.x 5 - java11 6 - dotnetcore3.1 7 - nodejs12.x 8 - nodejs10.x 9 - python3.7 10 - python3.6 11 - python2.7 12 - ruby2.5 13 - java8.al2 14 - java8 15 - dotnetcore2.1 Runtime: 5 Choose Maven as build tool. Shell Which dependency manager would you like to use? 1 - maven 2 - gradle Dependency manager: 1 Choose myawssamplanet as project name. Shell Project name [sam-app]: myawssamplanet Choose the Hello World Example: Maven. Shell Cloning app templates from https://github.com/aws/aws-sam-cli-app-templates AWS quick start application templates: 1 - Hello World Example: Maven 2 - EventBridge Hello World: Maven 3 - EventBridge App from scratch (100+ Event Schemas): Maven 4 - Step Functions Sample App (Stock Trader): Maven Template selection: 1 The SAM project is created. Shell ----------------------- Generating application: ----------------------- Name: myawssamplanet Runtime: java11 Dependency Manager: maven Application Template: hello-world Output Directory: . Next steps can be found in the README file at ./myawssamplanet/README.md The generated application has the following contents: events directory: contains an event.json file which can be used to test the lambda locally; HelloWorldFunction: the sample application, you will replace this one; README.md: a readme file containing instructions what you can do with the sample application; template.yaml: this is the SAM template which contains the configuration of the resources that need to be created (similar as a CloudFormation template). 3. Customize SAM Project In this section, you will customize the generated application in order to use the Java Lambda created in a previous post. Create a directory MyAwsSamFunction next to the HelloWorldFunction and copy the contents of the Java Lambda in this directory. Remove the HelloWorldFunction directory. Change the template.yaml file in order that the references to the HelloWorldFunction are replaced with references to the MyAwsSamFunction. The resulting file is the following: YAML AWSTemplateFormatVersion: '2010-09-09' Transform: AWS::Serverless-2016-10-31 Description: > myawssamplanet Sample SAM Template for myawssamplanet Globals: Function: Timeout: 20 Resources: MyAwsSamFunction: Type: AWS::Serverless::Function Properties: CodeUri: MyAwsSamFunction Handler: com.mydeveloperplanet.myawslambdajavaplanet.LambdaJava::handleRequest Runtime: java11 MemorySize: 512 Environment: Variables: PARAM1: VALUE Events: MyAwsLambdaJavaGet: Type: Api Properties: Path: /myawslambdajava Method: get Outputs: MyAwsSamApi: Description: "API Gateway endpoint URL for Prod stage for LambdaJava function" Value: !Sub "https://${ServerlessRestApi}.execute-api.${AWS::Region}.amazonaws.com/Prod/myawslambdajava/" MyAwsSamFunction: Description: "LambdaJava Lambda Function ARN" Value: !GetAtt MyAwsSamFunction.Arn MyAwsSamFunctionIamRole: Description: "Implicit IAM Role created for LambdaJava function" Value: !GetAtt MyAwsSamFunctionRole.Arn In the Resources section, the Lambda is defined and a MyAwsLambdaJavaGet Event of type Api. The latter will create an API Gateway containing a Rest resource where the Lambda can be invoked by means of a GET request. A complete overview of the different sections is described here. You also need to change the LambdaJava class. The current implementation makes us of the Lambda Integration type in the API Gateway. However, by default, SAM will make use of the Lambda Proxy Integration type. The difference is that the payload is sent differently from API Gateway to the Lambda function. If you do not change this, an Internal Server error will be sent as a response when you invoke the Rest resource. The current implementation is the following: Java public class LambdaJava implements RequestHandler, String> { private static final Gson GSON = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create(); @Override public String handleRequest(Map event, Context context) { LambdaLogger logger = context.getLogger(); String response = "Version 1"; ... return response; } } Instead, you need to implement the handleRequest which takes an APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent object. You also need to replace GSON.toJson(input) with input.getBody() and the response needs be formatted a little bit different. Besides that, also a null-check needs to be added in case the body is empty, otherwise a NullPointerException will be thrown. Java public class LambdaJava implements RequestHandler { private static final Gson GSON = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create(); @Override public APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent handleRequest(final APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent input, final Context context) { LambdaLogger logger = context.getLogger(); // log execution details logger.log("ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES: " + GSON.toJson(System.getenv()) + System.lineSeparator()); logger.log("CONTEXT: " + GSON.toJson(context) + System.lineSeparator()); // process event logger.log("EVENT: " + input.getBody() + System.lineSeparator()); logger.log("EVENT TYPE: " + input.getClass() + System.lineSeparator()); if (input.getBody() != null) { // Parse JSON into an object Car car = GSON.fromJson(input.getBody(), Car.class); logger.log("Car brand: " + car.getBrand() + System.lineSeparator()); logger.log("Car type: " + car.getType() + System.lineSeparator()); } Map headers = new HashMap<>(); headers.put("Content-Type", "application/text"); headers.put("X-Custom-Header", "application/text"); APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent response = new APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent() .withHeaders(headers); return response .withStatusCode(200) .withBody("Version 1"); } } 4. Build and Deploy Now it is time to build and deploy SAM. Navigate to the directory where the template.yaml exists and execute the build command: Shell $ sam build Building codeuri: /home/../myawssamplanet/MyAwsSamFunction runtime: java11 metadata: {} architecture: x86_64 functions: ['MyAwsSamFunction'] Running JavaMavenWorkflow:CopySource Running JavaMavenWorkflow:MavenBuild Running JavaMavenWorkflow:MavenCopyDependency Running JavaMavenWorkflow:MavenCopyArtifacts Build Succeeded Built Artifacts : .aws-sam/build Built Template : .aws-sam/build/template.yaml Commands you can use next ========================= [*] Invoke Function: sam local invoke [*] Test Function in the Cloud: sam sync --stack-name {stack-name} --watch [*] Deploy: sam deploy --guided After building the application, you deploy SAM.

Navigate to the Lambda service and you notice that the Lambda is created. The public URL for the API Gateway is shown in the console output. Try to access the URL. As expected, ‘Version 1’ is returned. Shell $ curl https://5w9uji7dag.execute-api.eu-west-3.amazonaws.com/Prod/myawslambdajava/ Version 1 5. Test Locally One of the main advantages of using SAM, is that you can test it locally. You can test the application including an API Gateway by using the local start-api command. Shell $ sam local start-api Mounting MyAwsSamFunction at http://127.0.0.1:3000/myawslambdajava [GET] You can now browse to the above endpoints to invoke your functions. You do not need to restart/reload SAM CLI while working on your functions, changes will be reflected instantly/automatically. You only need to restart SAM CLI if you update your AWS SAM template 2022-01-30 15:35:39 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:3000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit) Open a new Terminal and try to invoke the API Gateway resource. Shell $ curl http://127.0.0.1:3000/myawslambdajava Version 1 It might take some seconds before the response is returned. In the meanwhile, the terminal where you started the API, outputs the serverlogging. Here you notice that a Docker container is started. It is also possible to invoke the Lambda directly by simulating the event which is normally sent from the API Gateway to the Lambda. This is where the event.json file comes in handy. Shell $ sam local invoke "MyAwsSamPlanet" -e events/event.json 6. Add Post Request The Lambda which is used, actually takes a JSON body, converts JSON objects into Java objects and prints it to the logging. Add a MyAwsLambdaPost request to the template.yaml in order to test this behaviour. YAML Events: MyAwsLambdaJavaGet: Type: Api # More info about API Event Source: https://github.com/awslabs/serverless-application-model/blob/master/versions/2016-10-31.md#api Properties: Path: /myawslambdajava Method: get MyAwsLambdaJavaPost: Type: Api Properties: Path: /myawslambdajava Method: post Again, build and deploy SAM. Wait until the deployment has been finished and POST a request. Shell $ curl -i -X 'POST' \ > 'https://5w9uji7dag.execute-api.eu-west-3.amazonaws.com/Prod/myawslambdajava/' \ > -H 'accept: application/json' \ > -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ > -d '{ > "brand": "FORD", > "type": "Kuga" > }' HTTP/2 200 content-type: application/text content-length: 9 date: Sun, 30 Jan 2022 14:54:22 GMT x-amzn-requestid: b9855126-b51e-4dc9-abea-97dee77b5168 x-amz-apigw-id: Mw74sG6AiGYFoRg= x-custom-header: application/text x-amzn-trace-id: Root=1-61f6a69d-02ca6ba1368061e864cb7d6f;Sampled=0 x-cache: Miss from cloudfront via: 1.1 415e8d76bf2c69e5e03b89ba8461cd7e.cloudfront.net (CloudFront) x-amz-cf-pop: AMS50-C1 x-amz-cf-id: q1c-8WZOIqEhllZhGBAFQP8auu54fX7E3B41S2DcZNhr-HxV5JZLSQ== Version 1 Navigate to the Lambda service and navigate to the Monitor tab. From here, you can open the CloudWatch logging for the Lambda. The logging shows you that the event is received in the Lambda and converted to a Java object. Shell EVENT: { "brand": "FORD", "type": "Kuga" } EVENT TYPE: class com.amazonaws.services.lambda.runtime.events.APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent Car brand: FORD Car type: Kuga 7. Unit Test For completeness, also a unit test is added to the git repository. It is not further explained in this blog, but the test can be viewed at GitHub. It is important to add the junit dependency to the pom. XML junit junit 4.13.1 test You also need to ensure that the context and the logger are not null. It is not a very beautiful unit test, but it just works :-) . 8. Cleanup As always, it is a good practice to clean up all the resources you have created after you are done experimenting with AWS services. Because CloudFormation is used, it is quite easy to delete all the resources by means of a single command. Shell $ aws cloudformation delete-stack --stack-name myawssamplanet --region eu-west-3 You can follow the progress in CloudFormation. SAM also created a S3 bucket, this one is not automatically deleted. Navigate to the S3 service. Select the created bucket and click the Empty button. Follow the instructions and click the Delete button in order to remove the S3 bucket. Now you can also delete the aws-sam-cli-managed-default stack which was created. Shell $ aws cloudformation delete-stack --stack-name aws-sam-cli-managed-default --region eu-west-3 9. Conclusion In this blog, you got an introduction of the Serverless Application Model of AWS. You also got your hands dirty and created by means of a SAM template an API Gateway and Java Lambda. You learnt how to build, deploy and test the application remotely and locally.
