README

The REFCODES.ORG codes represent a group of artifacts consolidating parts of my work in the past years. Several topics are covered which I consider useful for you, programmers, developers and software engineers.

What is this repository for?

This artifact hosts several REFCODES.ORG related Maven Archetypes for quickly getting up and running with the REFCODES.ORG toolkit.

How do I get set up?

A collection of Maven Archetypes has been published to Maven Central for easily creating these REFCODES.ORG driven applications:

Quick start Command & Control service

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-c2 archetype to create a bare metal command & control (CLI) driven Java application:

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-c2 \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Using the defaults, this will generate a command & control application harnessing the refcodes-rest toolkit whilst providing a command line interface by harnessing the refcodes-cli toolkit.

Quick start command line (CLI) application

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-cli archetype to create a bare metal command line interface (CLI) driven Java application:

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-cli \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Using the defaults, this will generate a CLI application providing a command line interface by harnessing the refcodes-cli library.

Quick start CSV file processing application

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-csv archetype to create a bare metal CSV (CLI) driven Java application:

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-csv \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Using the defaults, this will generate a CSV processing application harnessing the refcodes-tabular toolkit whilst providing a command line interface by harnessing the refcodes-cli toolkit.

Quick decoupled inversion of control (IoC) dependency injection application

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-decoupling archetype to create a bare metal dependency injection and inversion of control (IoC) driven Java application breaking up dependencies between components or modules of a software system:

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-decoupling \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Quick start pipes and filters CLI tool

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-filter archetype to create a bare metal command line interfaceCLI) driven Pipes and Filters Java application (the pipes are provided by the shell, your application will be the filter to interact with other UNIX filters via pipes):

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-filter \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Using the defaults, this will generate a pipes and filters CLI tool for processing <STDIN> as well as <STDOUT> streams and | pipes whilst providing a command line interface by harnessing the refcodes-cli toolkit.

Quick start eventbus driven application

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-eventbus archetype to create a bare metal event driven driven Java service:

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-eventbus \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Using the defaults, this will generate an event driven application harnessing the refcodes-eventbus toolkit whilst providing a command line interface by harnessing the refcodes-cli toolkit.

Quick start RESTful service

Use the refcodes-archetype-alt-rest archetype to create a bare metal REST driven Java application within just one source code file:

Please adjust my.corp with your actual Group-ID and myapp with your actual Artifact-ID:

mvn archetype:generate \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.refcodes \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=refcodes-archetype-alt-rest \
  -DarchetypeVersion=3.4.1 \
  -DgroupId=my.corp \
  -DartifactId=myapp \
  -Dversion=0.0.1

Using the defaults, this will generate a RESTful server and client application by harnessing the refcodes-rest toolkit.
