Simplifications for lightweight Tapestry5 projects
--------------------------------------------------
Key: TAP5-1281
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1281
Project: Tapestry 5
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: tapestry-core
Affects Versions: 5.0.15
Reporter: Tobias Marx
Priority: Minor
In order to simplify Tapestry5 even further i would like to suggest the
following:
- auto-creation of "empty" page and component classes if they don't exist at
runtime (to reduce number of lines of code, especially for small projects &
demos)
- being able to reference a "global" service by default from within the
templates where all database queries / persistence queries can be placed
This way, you could create quite complex web applications with only a few files:
- a layout templates
- x template files for all pages (instead of 2*x)
- y template files for all components (instead of 2*y)
- one "global" service as an additional file that contains all
hibernate/persistance queries
This would cater of all users that want to create lightweight websites with
only as many lines of code/files as really needed.
A lot of website can be implemented just by querying data and displaying them
in a template (loop)
The idea:
- reduce the lines of code for small / medium projects
- create even more convincing Tapestry demos (vs. RoR/PHP)
- increase acceptance by more users checking Tapestry out for the first time
