Setting up Visual Studio code for Java Spring boot development

 


Download Visual Studio Code to your machine by clicking here. You will be redirected to official download site for VS Code. You can download VS depending on your OS.

When we open VS Code and click on explorer (Ctrl+Shft+E). There two options available by default.

  • Open Folder
  • Clone Repository

Visual Studio code is an Editor not a full fledged IDE. But we can configure VS Code by installing relevant extensions available at https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/vscode.

To install extension directly from Visual Studio, click on Extension icon on Menu item at left panel. Alternatively we can use Ctrl+Shft+X keyboard short cut.


First extension we going to search is "Extension Pack From Java" from Microsoft.
This extension pack is collection of extensions which is needed to enabled Java development in General.
  • Language Support for Java - Rad Hat
  • Debugger for Java - Microsoft
  • Maven for Java - Microsoft
  • Test Runner for Java - Microsoft
  • Project Manager for Java - Microsoft.

Next extension pack we are going to install is "Spring Boot Extension Pack - Pivotal". Which is again collection of extension, required to enable Spring Boot development in Visual Studio Code.
  • Spring Initializer Java support - Microsoft
  • Spring Boot tool - Pivotal
  • Spring Boot Dashboard - Microsoft.

Once installation for Spring Boot Extension pack is over, VS code will open on welcome page which provides us series of options to Create and Navigate Spring boot application.


We can select this option to create Spring Boot application from here or can create new project from Explorer Menu Item. When we click on Explorer menu item or use Ctrl+Shft+E combination. VS code will show new option to create Java Project.

Accessing Enum in template–Angular with Typescript

By reading title of  this post, It  seems some what misleading. In Angular 2 (or higher version for that matter). We cannot directly access  Enum or any other type for that matter into template. so, for an example  consider following example now if we try to access Enum WeekDays in HTML template as follows It would be resulted in runtime error shown below To resolve this error we should be assigning enum to component property as shown below. Reason behind this is , Component is the execution context for an Angular application. We can reference only those properties in template which are defined in component or have scope in component.
