JumentiX Vue UI

User Interface for JumentiX

"Runtime" generated VUE User Interfaces by leveraging extended Swagger OpenAPI specification as declarative metadata.

Problems

Rather than the back end, where you have a set of tools to automate code and documentation development, the Frontend development still being an intensive manual and long task, due several reasons:

Data "payloads"

Frontend developers need to pay attention to API documentations and all it deeply details to make sure the "application client" is "composing valid payloads" when sending data to API´s end points.

End point payload may contains vary properties and different data types.

Frontend developers should to validate payloads before sending data to end points. Payloads might be complex and slow to get it validate once the front end developers need to go through every end point documentation and clear understand it resources and data types. This requires manual and thorough work.

Data "format"

Frontend developers are required to know how backend data looks like to correctly/friendly display it on screens. This requires manual and thorough work.

Frontend development tends to be longer and harder than Backend development. You probably may need more developers on Frontend rather than the Backend
"SCRUM based" application development

In the cases where you have a kind of application which should be flexible in terms of frequently adding or removing features you usually need to manually change files in both client and server side. You usually need to change specification files, database models, grids and forms structure to achieve that goal.

Components setup/configuration

In modern JS SPAs, screens architecture are usually component based. Some known components are grids, forms, form fields, toolbars and others.

Every component setup must match the backend standards in a certain level.

In a single screen you might need to repeatedly to perform several component configuration, always looking to your backend specification.

Code quality

Solution

Employing mainly RAD and DRY methodologies to generate frontend and backend components.

On the backend it is common to use a declarative standard to "generate" code and documentation for REST APIs.

A well known declarative standard is the OpenAPI specification, used on Swagger.

Swagger is a set of tools for API development, documentation, testing and more.

The OpenAPI Specification, formerly known as the Swagger Specification, is the world’s standard for defining RESTful interfaces. The OAS enables developers to design a technology-agnostic API interface that forms the basis of their API development and consumption.

JQWidgets CRUD screens for Human Data Entity

OpenAPI specification for Human Data Entity

Check Human Entity specification on github

Frontend "generic component" for Human Data Entity

The generic component is a CRUD application which has it components setup in runtime. When you load the screen, it reads the associated swagger specification and then use that information to setup the several components configuration.

The following screens have the same codebase, but it differs in terms of what specification is being used as metadata to setup those screen components.
