Introduction Quick and Clean

Introduction for Application Developers: Quick and Clean in Three Minutes

• You can create a Maven project based on KissMDA App Maven archetype: kissmda-maven-app-archetype. Don't worry about all the Maven things you need because we put all the Maven KissMDA artifacts in Maven Central:

mvn archetype:generate 
  -DarchetypeGroupId=de.crowdcode.kissmda.maven 
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=kissmda-maven-app-archetype 
  -DarchetypeVersion=[Version Number] 
  -DgroupId="com.mytest" 
  -DartifactId="mytestapp"
  -DprojectName="mytestapp"
  -DprojectDescription="This is my first project with KissMDA"

• At the moment we only support one cartridge: kissmda-cartridges-simple-java, which just simply generates the Java interfaces out of the Entity and Service classes.

• This model below will be created as a standard UML model:

• Run Maven on command line or use m2eclipse plugin in your Eclipse IDE:

mvn clean package

• You will get all the interfaces of the UML model above being generated as Java interfaces under following directory:

target/generated-sources/java

• That's it! If you want to know the background, please check out our longer introduction version: Introduction for Application Developers.
