rocker-spring-boot-starter

[iceant]

Thanks for develop this greate template.
It's simple and powerful.
I used spring boot 2.x for web application development, but I can not find an integration with spring boot. So, I created one. Please check this:

Thanks.

Hi @iceant ,

thanks for interesting implementation.
There are few (rocker+spring-boot) - suggestions.
Look for example https://github.com/linux-china/rocker-template-demo
Personally, I like this simple integration.

Hi, @damir78
Thanks for your comments.
I have checked that demo before start to write my own. It make sence to use default implementation of Rocker. But I have more complex usage to use rocker with spring boot.
For example, I use rocker to render web fragment(combined with 3 files: .js, .html, .css). There are 2 limitation in the default implementation:

1. only support ".rocker.html" suffix. As you can see, I need to render .js and .css too. Yes, ".raw" is supported, but to make .js and .css with default file extension will make IDE friendly.
2. I like the reload feature, just modify the template and refresh the page, everything is reloaded. That's so cool, and saved lots of my time for development. But rocker-compiler's default implementation had issue with that, TemplateCompiler can not handle classpath exactly. Also we need to config maven pom.xml to make that right. I'm lazy, I just want to import some jar files to make everything work. spring boot is good at that, so, I have to modify the default TemplateCompiler as RockerTemplateCompiler for that.

Also I used rocker for generate dynamic SQL and JavaBean to make coding simple and life easy.
Again, Thanks for develop this greate tools. It's fast and simple.
