Coldbox codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.
This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged fullstack application built with Coldbox including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.
We've gone to great lengths to adhere to the Coldbox community styleguides & best practices.
For more information on how to this works with other frontends/backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.
Please check the official Commandbox documentation before you start if you don't already have Commandbox installed. Official Documentation
Clone the repository
https://github.com/timmaybrown/coldbox-realworld-example-app.git
Switch to the repo folder
cd coldbox-realworld-example-app
Enter the Commandbox shell
box
Inside the Commandbox shell install all the dependencies
install
Start the local development server
start
You can now access the server at http://localhost:9090
These are the commands I used to create this coldbox application. The application based on the Coldbox Rest Template.
(*Note: All commands assume you are inside the Commandbox shell by already running the box command)
Create the app - creates the app based on the rest template and installs the main dependencies
coldbox create app coldbox-real-world-example-app rest
Create the api module
coldbox create module api
Start the server and set the startup port and CFML engine@version to use.
Future starts of the server can just use the start command as the start port and CFML engine settings will be stored in server.json.
You can read more about starting and managing servers with Commandbox in the docs
start port=9090 cfengine=lucee@5
The server will now download the latest version of Lucee - A light-weight dynamic scripting language for the JVM that enables the rapid development of simple to highly sophisticated web applications.
