OpenDolphin, Spring and MongoDB

Question

Is it posible to use OpenDolphin with Spring as server-side framework and MongoDB as database ? I want to build simple team application that demonstrates capabilities of team collaboration. I am intrested in advice for techonology to use.

Answer 1

yes this is possible.

for a start, try to use spring-boot and there the spring-boot-starter-web artefact. then extend the DolphinServlet and register that servlet with the help of a ServletRegistrationBean. after you registered an action you might connect to a MongoDB database as you do with any java application.

@Bean
public ServletRegistrationBean servletRegistrationBean() {
    ServletRegistrationBean registrationBean = new ServletRegistrationBean(serverServlet, "/s");
    return registrationBean;
}

the open dolphin jumpstart project is a good starting-point: https://github.com/canoo/DolphinJumpStart
