persistence-api

The persistence-api is the parent project that provides api module projects for implement jpa projects. It tends to be easy to understand and uses different standards like JPA and or-mapper framework hibernate and spring for dependency injection.

Here is a simple description of the important module projects:

entities-api

The entities-api module project provides several interfaces like Versionable, Activatable, Validatable that can be implemented from entity or domain classes

base-entities

The base-entities module project provides abstract entity classes like versionable, activatable, validatable and other useful base entity classes.

business-api

The business-api module project provides business intefaces and abstract classes for execute crud processes.

data-api

The data-api module project provides generic repository intefaces.

contains attribute converter classes for the new java 8 java.time package.

data-initialization

The data-initialization module project provides only one abstract class AbstractDatabaseInitialization that provides callback methods for initialization of a database. The callback methods can be overwritten to provide custom behavior if needed.

data-usertype

The data-usertype module project provides specific usertype classes.

domain-api

The domain-api module project provides generic base domain classes and service intefaces.

domain-mapper

The domain-mapper module project provides generic mapper classes that use the dozzer framework for map entity classes to domain specific classes.

rest-api

The domain-api module project provides rest intefaces and abstract classes for execute crud processes.

rest-client

The rest-client module project provides an abstract rest client for test rest services. It uses the cxf framework from apache.

Maven dependency

Maven dependency is now on sonatype. Check out sonatype repository for latest snapshots and releases.

Add the following maven dependencies to your project pom.xml if you want to import the core functionality:

You can first define the version properties:

<properties>
