New Features in this Release
l App redeployment. You can quickly redeploy your app when your Java code changes.
l Automatically reload app configuration files. HP Anywhere IDE automatically applies
changes to your app’s configuration files to the app running on the HP Anywhere server, so you
don’t need to manually reload your app every time you modify these files.
l New jQuery Mobile templates. You can now use out-of-the-box jQuery Mobile templates to
create Hello World and My Report apps.
l Minification support for your apps.HP Anywhere IDE comes complete with a built-in
mechanism that automatically minifies your apps, so they’re always ready for production.
l Automatic updates. Your HP Anywhere IDE Plugin is automatically updated, so you always
have the latest version of the plugin at your fingertips.
l Eclipse Marketplace. You can now download the HP Anywhere IDE Plugin directly from
Eclipse Marketplace.
l Bug fixes. For details, see “Fixed Defects in this Release” on the next page.

Fixed Defects in this Release
The reference number for each fixed defect is the Change Request (QCCR) number. For more
information about fixed defects, visit HP Software Support Online, or contact your HP Support
representative directly.
The following defects are fixed in HP Anywhere IDE (Eclipse) 10.01:
l Coexistence of HP Anywhere IDE and HP Anywhere server: HP Anywhere IDE cannot
reside on the same machine as HP Anywhere server. If HP Anywhere server was already
installed on the machine, the installer did not prevent the installation of HP Anywhere IDE.
(QCCR161516)
l New app version always set to 1.0.0: If you changed the app version in the HP Anywhere App
Project wizard to anything other than the default 1.0.0, the change was ignored. (QCCR158307)
l Inaccessible descriptor file (relevant for WebOS catalog): The <app_name>-
descriptor.xml file was wrapped in the WAR file, and therefore, the app’s metadata was not
accessible when uploading to the WebOS catalog. (QCCR158935)
l OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space error message: This error message was sometimes
displayed when uploading to the HP Anywhere server. (QCCR162145)
l HP Anywhere IDE not shown by default: When you opened HP Anywhere IDE, the default
perspective was set to the Java IDE instead of HP Anywhere IDE. (QCCR160985)
l Incorrect error message for new project with existing name: If you tried to create a project
using an existing project name, a general “failed” error message was displayed that did not
indicate the reason. (QCCR160990)
l HP AnywhereIDE would not start if JDK 1.6 was installed: If JDK 1.6 was installed on the
machine, HP Anywhere IDE failed to open even though JDK 1.7 was also installed on the
machine. (QCCR160984)
l Generic log file: Apps created using

 // Create a very simple REST adapter which points the GitHub API endpoint.
 RestAdapter restAdapter = new RestAdapter.Builder()

 // Create an instance of our GitHub API interface.
 GithubUser githubUser = restAdapter.create(GithubUser.class);

 System.out.println("UserData=" + userdata.bio + "," + userdata.email + "," + userdata.name +
 userdata.location + "," + userdata.public_repos + "," + userdata.followers);

The library is really simple to use especially if you create your POJO class with the JSONGen.

I love this IDE. It connects to PAAS, easily and without effort.

In my example I easily create a Spring application and could run on their local server and easily deploy to AppFog. It also works with CloudFoundry, CloudBees, Heroku and OpenShift. All of which have free versions.

It works with Maven and is similiar to Eclipse.

Book Review: Testable JavaScript

Testable JavaScript Book Review

Testable JavaScript

By Mark Ethan Trostler
Publisher: O’Reilly Media
Released: January 2013
Pages: 274

Chapters:

Chapter 1 Testable JavaScript
Chapter 2 Complexity
Chapter 3 Event-Based Architectures
Chapter 4 Unit Tests
Chapter 5 Code Coverage
Chapter 6 Integration, Performance, and Load Testing
Chapter 7 Debugging
Chapter 8 Automation
First off, I want to say this is one of my favorite books. It is a great work on developing with TDD and agile with a focus on JavaScript. I am considering buying a print copy
to keep next to my computer with the GoF, Growing Object Oriented… and Release It! I am big believer in the main aim of the book to keep javascript code simple and
loosely coupled. This is not a book for those who don’t know JavaScript or have some background in Test Driven Development.

The book starts with a nice section on agile, TDD, BDD , the why’s, what’s and how’s of all the best practices for modern development. There is a very thorugh discussion of a
number of great development tools including: JSLInt, JSmeter, JSCheckStyle, YUIDoc and JSDoc. This book is great for Java developers wishing to start doing enterprise level
JavaScript on the client and server and in-between (Meteor / Derby).

I like this book also for it’s thorough coverage of best modern development practices: Code Reuse, Coupling, Metrics, Dependency Injection, auto documenation (think javadoc),
formalized softwtare inspections, coder coverage, fan-out/fan-in nd more agile practices.

One of the other strong topics in the book is Event-Based Architectures / programming. Event-based programming is great for decoupling objects. There is also great information on using and Event-Hub and socket.io as well.

Testing Topics from the Book

vows
isolation
scope
mock objects
positive and negative testing
PhantomJS for testing
stubs
spies
asynchronous testing
running tests on the client and server side

Cool Tools from the Book

Sending Email With Java (Beware)

Jan31

I turn on debugging to trace what’s going on. All looks good but one email bounces back after a day and some hotmail and gmails just vanish.

The Days of Shell and Rational Roses

Jan25

http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2011/12/more-shell-less-egg/

That post reminded me of why UNIX and combining simple single function programs together made UNIX (and Linux) so amazing.

My first college CGI and my first corporate one (Database America’s Yellow Pages engine) were all written in bourne shell! I thought it was so primitive, but thinking back I was able to implement a functional, fast and solid application in only a few days. The school project was as a simple web interface to a C++ application I wrote to do some B-Tree application for class. I do remember making database calls through command line SQL tools and parsing the results wasn’t as clean or as safe as you would want, but that was really because the command line tools were not designed to fit into the standard UNIX change.

We eventually upgraded to Perl, which was really like ShellScript++.

I guess the takeaway here is that make small reusable components that function fast, simple and can be easily chained with other components to make a custom “tool”. Software is just a tool even when it looks like a fancy magazine or funky website. Hmm Pipes and Mule ESB have that same feel. Shell was the ultimate object reuse.

So you would do the painful, slow job of writing C++, even with Rational Rose UML to help guide you, it was painful. You had to hope you had the correct libraries and that there were free ones. STL was a great help, but you had to buy a license. I think we had to buy a bunch of licenses from RogueWave for database stuff as well. Now Java, Node.Js and the rest have a ton of free libraries for everything. Which is great, but you have to pick the right one, get it into a build script of some sort (ANT, Maven, Gradle, Rake, SBT, …), combine it with some other libraries and then write some code specific to that library. With tools like Eclipse and NetBeans, you can automate a lot of that, but even all the libraries and frameworks that help you add bulk and complexities. More points of failure, not an elegant connection of small tools, but a behemoth of patched together disjoint libraries.

Anyone remembermsql ? MySQL and msql competed for awhile and then MySQL crushed it..

Scrumban for Defect Cycle Resolution

Oct19

I have been working on using Scrumban to resolve a defect cycle we are working through. We have a large number of defects on a product (many of which are from a third party framework) and a typical Scrum is a bit difficult because of so many small stories. I was thinking of doing pure Kanban, but my team is very used to working within a standard Scrum sprint cycle.

So a ScrumBan board in our defect fixing war room seems to be the best way to track a lot of small tickets (post-its).

I will post and see how this goes.

Node.js Development on Windows with WebMatrix 2

mongodb meeting with SJ

Oct2

Introduction to MongoDB

A first time meetup in South Jersey at the Fire Hall in Pennsauken. With some great support from 10gen with info sheets, stickers and pizza.

Notes from A. Riveria presentation:

Document Data Model
Database Technology anywhere…
Written in C++
Source Code on Github
Runs on most platforms
BSON (Binary JSON) – binary-encoded serialization
JSON collections
Embedding of objects/arrays
Table => Collection
Row => Document
Join => Embedded
Foreign Key => Reference / Link (Object Id – autogenerated serial # for each document)
Partition => Shard (Shard keys across nodes)
Indexes on fields and collections of indexes
Great for lat/long
Geospatial queries

JavaScript based queries

{} – select all where

db.users.find( {}, {username:1, firstname: 1, lastname:1, email:1}

1- true

Results (JSON):

{ username: “smith”,

firstname: “angel”,

lastname: “Rivera”,

email: “a@a.com”

}

Insert

var insertString = {username:”smith”, value:1}

can use quotes around the fieldnames.

db.users.insert(insertString);

(users is our collection)

Update

db.users.update({username: “jones”}, {$set: {email:”a@yahoo.com”}}

first section is where, set part does the update on the field(s)

MAKE SURE YOU USE $SET modifier in updates.

Only updates first record it encounters.

Save

Upserts. Update or if not found then create/insert.

Remove/Delete

db.users.remove( {username:”aname”});

deletes a document

Mongo Query Operators

$ne (not equal)

$lt (less than)

$lte (less than equal to)

$gt

mongoimport

Also supports CSV, best to do JSON, the default. Arrays in a field does not work in a CSV.

mongoimport –db sjmug -c users -v –file data.json –host localhost –port 27018 –jsonArray

Thanks to 10gen for sponsorship!

Test Driven Node.JS Development

Aug30

What would a language and framework be with unit testing, BDD, and other testing methods, frameworks and systems?

So once you get beyond casual Node.JS development, you will need to start unit testing. Node.js has a surprisingly robust and mature set of testing tools and options. Out of the box, Node.js has Built In Assert which will let you do some basic XUnit style tests. A step beyond that is NodeUnit, which is pretty easy to use for XUnit oriented people. For me, it’s easy to pick up coming from doing a lot of JUnit tests. This article is great for Using NodeUnit for Testing. Node.js is great because so many people have developed tools, frameworks and utilities for it. The only issue I have it some are not very mature and the options are so fragmented. There’s no Spring framework or hibernate that garners massive usage. So many variations and options, I wish they could work together to put together a killer Rails or Spring type group of mature, tested, interconnected tools and utilities. Full Testing Suite – Mocha is installable via NPM and works with a CI server. This one is pretty cool.

The source for everything testing/bdd/mocking for Node.JS is Joyent’s Testing Wiki.

There’s a number of behavior driven development tools including the polyglot tool Cucumber -> BDD Testing Tool – Cucumber.JS. Another option is Asynchronous BDD Testing Tool – Vow.

For mocking, Mockito Style Mock Objects – Mary Jane, looks great. I will hope that maybe Mockito will officially support this one.

For JQuery fans, someone has ported QUnit to Node.JS [Node-Qunit]

Virile Testing for Node.JS Apps is pretty interesting and so is Headless Full Stack Testing with Zombie.js.

This is just a sampling of test options. Obviously tools like Selenium and Firebug will help you and so would JMeter and and SOAPUI. A lot of general web testing tools are available that can do full system testing or integration testing for your Node.JS web apps.

I will be adding some examples in a future post with a github link.

Nodejitsu is another Node.js PAAS that offers a free plan. The free plan is shared hosting through Joyent. The performance of NodeJitsu’s free plan is very good, especially considering it’s free. To start sign up on NodeJitsu’s site with the free plan and then follow the Getting Started instructions. It was a very quick process on Windows. You can use either their command line, Node.JS based jitsu tool, use the admin web site or use the HTTP API.

Executing the basic jitsu command will show you the following information:

You can see the deployed application here.

This NYC Node.js PAAS is very performant with a fast easy to use tool. I am liking them so far. They are also very Node.JS oriented, being the only of the PAAS vendors to use Node.JS for their command line tool.

They have also developed the very interesting FlatIron Framework, which I will be looking at next.

Nodester Node.JS + Express + Mongo App Part 1 – Nodester

Aug2

The Running Node.JS Application on a Nodester

I am still working on putting up a full application for the tutorial. Also I will try the same application on Nodejitsu, CloudFoundry and Heroku.

The following are the basic steps for working with Nodester. It is very similiar to all the other command-line PaaS interfaces. I am running this on
Windows, but it will work in most environments.

npm install nodester-cli -g
nodester user setup &lt;username&gt; &lt;password&gt;
nodester user setkey c:.sshid_rsa.pub
nodester app create &lt;appname&gt;
nodester app init &lt;appname&gt;
nodester npm install express
nodester npm install mongoose
nodester npm install socket.io

git add .
git commit -am "Ready to deploy"
git push nodester master

nodester app info
nodester app stop|start|restart
nodester app logs

For nodester they push to master for Nodester to get a new build.

Log into your Application List Page on the Administration Site for Nodester and you will see your newly added Application. Nodester has a good help system that will be useful to you while learning. The git commands are standard GIT which makes using all the cloud systems pretty similiar.

After uploading, I check the logs for errors:

nodester app logs
nodester info Showing logs for: rollerderby
New PID: 18884
chroot_runner
chroot_runner
Spawing /app/server.js
Running node v-0.8.1
:: nodester ::

App listening on port 19885

nodester info ok!

I used there out of the box example and added a connection to my test mongo db database at MongoLab.

TOAD for Cloud Databases

It’s free and it works great for querying your NOSQL databases.

I am using it here against a free instance of MongoDB database hosted on MongoLab. It works great and fast and is nice for people who have been using TOAD against Oracle for years.

It also works Cassandra and Hadoop amongst others. For free, give it a try. There’s also an Eclipse plug-in, but that was a little too slow and memory draining for me. They use a funky datahub for querying things and that seems to work well for me on Windows 7.

Jul17

I’ve been evaluating a few different technologies for doing some rapid web development work and recently I have been looking at the bounty of available tools, libraries, frameworks and associates of Spring. Spring ROO and Groovy/Grails are the big two RAD tools from SpringSource and they look pretty amazing. I don’t think I’ve found the Holy Grail of Web App development, but these two tools are really helpful in rapidly developing apps. I am hoping someone combines Roo or Grails with Vert.x to make a really awesome alternative to Node.JS. I like Node.JS and have been doing JavaScript for a decade, but I prefer the languages of the JVM and Vert.x’s support for multiple languages is pretty awesome. Hmmm, Vert.x in Grails.

With the excellent STS inside Eclipse, this gives Groovy and Java a great IDE for development, testing and debugging. And that is something that is lacking for Node.JS. Node.JS has a few tools out there, but nothing open source, free, full of awesome mature plugins (PMD, Checkstyle, GIT, Maven, JUnit, FindBugs, …) and just plain easy to use. Eclipse also has plugins for working with CloudFoundry, Heroku, OpenShift and other Cloud environments.

Between Grails and Roo, I really like the fact that I can remove Roo at anytime and still have a fully functionally application setup that utilizes standard Spring tools. It’s also easier to add other cool Spring projects like Spring Social, Spring Mobile, Spring Data and more.

Both Grails and Roo support MongoDB very well and that’s great too see. I have a few Mongo DB instances on MongoLab, MongoHQ and OpenShift. These services all have great free developer services that are great for learning, prototyping and for tutorials. I am really loving Heroku and OpenShift. It’s hard to pick one, so I didn’t. I use them both.

Vert.x + Groovy is really cool, but again not much IDE support, tools or extra libraries. It should grow start building support now, but competition with Node.JS is pretty fierce.

Interesting, Roo vs Grails Jobs.

spring roo, grails Job Trends

Spring Roo jobs – Grails jobs

But if you look at just Spring (which Roo is just a tool to help with a Spring project):

spring, grails Job Trends

Spring jobs – Grails jobs

There’s also some great documentation, tutorials and books on Groovy/Grails since it’s been out for a while: http://grails.org/Tutorials http://www.infoq.com/minibooks/grails-getting-started On the other hand, Roo is newer, but since it generates standard Spring + Java, you are really just getting a good head start on your project.

Heroku has a nice article on using both with their awesome platform: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/grails and https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/spring-mvc-hibernate.

I will post a Github repository of some samples soon.

I created a small tutorial application following the Spring Data for Mongodb guide with a little bacon for flavor. I wanted to use real hosting for MongoDB, so I created a database at MongoLab. It was quick and easy and the hosting is fast and works great even remotely for local development.

The tutorial application in process is one to register your Bacon Creation for this year’s BaconFest. The winner gets a mini BaconExplosion.

This is ONLY a test, you will not receive BACON.

Useful Tools

Jun25

Google CodePro

Part of the plug-in for Eclipse includes an awesome JUnit Test Case Generator. It generates a lot of code you need for your unit test, much better than the OOTB Eclipse Junit Class Generator. It generates all the methods you need to start with and most of the boilerplate test code. It saves a lot of time and gives you a nice skeleton to start adding tests to. Google’s CodePro is a nice free tool and a great addition to my toolbox.

https://developers.google.com/java-dev-tools/codepro/doc/features/junit/test_case_generation

My tip: I have specific Eclipse installs for all my different tools. One for Android Development, One Spring STS version, one JBoss/OpenShift version, one for Heroku, one for JEE, one for Client Focused / HTML 5, one for Mobile, etc… That way I am not loading any extra plugins.

Some of the standard plugins I like:

FindBugs
Google CodePro
PMD
EclEmma
EGit
m2e (Maven)

You definitely don’t want Android tools in your Eclipse if you are not going to do be doing Android apps everytime, keep that in a separate Eclipse install. You can install as many as you want, space is cheap. I have some that run of USB Sticks fine.
