MyComponent Add-on for Vaadin 8

FilesystemDataProvider is a data model add-on for Vaadin 8 providing hierarchical data of the filesystem, and it can be used to supply it to Tree and TreeGrid components. This is fully server side add-on, hence using it does not require widgetset recompilation. The inspiration of this add-on is to provide similar functionality than Vaadin 7's built in FilesystemContainer had. Hence it is useful for Vaadin 7 -> 8 migration projects.

Development with Eclipse IDE

For further development of this add-on, the following tool-chain is recommended:

  • Eclipse IDE
  • m2e wtp plug-in (install it from Eclipse Marketplace)
  • Vaadin Eclipse plug-in (install it from Eclipse Marketplace)
  • JRebel Eclipse plug-in (install it from Eclipse Marketplace)
  • Chrome browser

Importing project

Choose File > Import... > Existing Maven Projects

Note that Eclipse may give "Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration" errors for pom.xml. Use "Permanently mark goal resources in pom.xml as ignored in Eclipse build" quick-fix to mark these errors as permanently ignored in your project. Do not worry, the project still works fine.

Debugging server-side

If you have not already compiled the widgetset, do it now by running vaadin:install Maven target for filesystemdataprovider-root project.

If you have a JRebel license, it makes on the fly code changes faster. Just add JRebel nature to your filesystemdataprovider-demo project by clicking project with right mouse button and choosing JRebel > Add JRebel Nature

To debug project and make code modifications on the fly in the server-side, right-click the filesystemdataprovider-demo project and choose Debug As > Debug on Server. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/filesystemdataprovider-demo/ to see the application.
